well finally got all the bits together, its currently got just an 8800GT 512mb going in there, which has boosted output nicely.
however just bought the following off MM:

2 x 8000gt 256mb
1 x 8800gts 512mb

so with this lot and my GTX285 running, i should be seeing about 25k ppd! :D

All these new GPU's should be installed and running early next week.

Milky^ - this time next week maybe...

What bits did you end up getting?
 
the MSI board with 4x PCIe slots in plus 850w zalman psu and rest all pretty basic. 2gb cheap ram, 4400+ cpu, 320gb hdd, basic case but with 2 x 12cm fans, trying to see how i can get some more in.

what sort of shader speed is a g'teed safe overclock on these cards?

got the current 8800gt running at 1750 on the shaders, havent tried any higher.

If its a G92 core you can probably go 1850 but you'll have to crank the fan speed up.

I had most of the other parts (Intel) so just wanted to change the mobo and went for the Asus P5Q Premium. 4 pcie slots but close together so heat might be an issue in summer. Its fine now tho.

One thing that did impress me was that I have all that running off a 520W PSU!

I keep getting Project 5902 WU's on my GTX280, can barely manage 7000ppd with those , i was getting 9000+ppd on those 420points work units .

If i get anmore then i shall be seeing you go past sometime this weekend i think, unless my praying to the gods works and you get a load for your cards :)
