Hey,

So I just re-joined the world of Folding after a many-year hiatus. Folded before for Overclockers.com (and then Genmay for a bit), but then left it.

Now, my house has electric panel heaters. So I figured that if the heat in here is to be generated with electricity, I might as well fold while making it toasty! So now got two rigs in the house (and a third offsite), comprising:

1 - i5 2500k @ 3.3Ghz & nVidia 560GTX
2 - AMD Neo @ 1.3Ghz (HP Microserver CPU.. every little helps!)

3 - (Offsite) Dual-core Opteron 2210 @ 1.8Ghz

It's certainly keeping the study warm - the heating's off in here! Will be running the rigs 24/7 (except for gaming, where I'll pause it on my main rig)

Cheers,
Blueacid
 
Thanks - first time to the OCUK F@H team haha!

But yes, I'm back in the fold :) Tempted to add the HTPC too, although it's only an intel Atom CPU & nVidia ION GPU, and my bids to keep the noise down mean that its cooling might not be ample for being flat out 24/7.. (It doesn't overheat playing high def media, so the cooling is "sufficient"..)

Sadly though this does mean that once the heating is no longer needed I'll probably throttle back! You've until around February / March until that happens though, haha!
