If I manage to get a broken capacitor replaced on my GTX295 I could lend it to you while you make up your mind on a permanent choice :D

Cheers, Simon.

You could always lend it to me, though you may never get it back... :p

How did you manage to break a capacitor?

A plastic retainer that rests between the two cards popped out as I was refitting the cards and the capacitor came off as well :(

Fiddly job getting the cards in and out because you have to move all three together linked by the sli style coolant pipes and without the metal outer case some sections of the pcb are vulnerable.

Pics are here of the two halves

And here of the capacitor


Hoping to find somewhere on Thursday to source the parts and or do the repair.

Cheers, Simon.
 
Looks like I've settled in to about 9k PPD. So, my entire fleet defeated by a single GPU. This is why I concentrate on non-GPU projects now. :)
 
damn i missed all the graph posting.

I play too many games at night, so big boo boo there :p

Also, not much I can do to increase my output, I have a 4200x2 somewhere that i can try and revive, i can try and oc one of my rigs, i am trying to get cuda working on my laptop (ouch hot!).
Worse, i might have to take a bit of time off to move flats! (hopefully not for another 5-8 weeks, but who knows?)

there's nothing I can do to stop loudbob, but at least I managed to catch up with him once:

Minor boost from me - after removing the 8800gs and reinstalling the stock cooler - retesting to make sure it's fan and flower are all good for dekez shed upgrade.
My 9800gt is now playing ball with the E6550

Someone now going to say the multibeam is like the astropulse - and will stay in pending for a month :(

Yeah, I have settled down to around 8500 ppd. Thats with two dual core machines, 1 single cpu machine and a GT250 :eek:
I have a dual core p4 830D and a 8800GT which will be getting switched on now that I have been paid and can afford the leccy :D
 
Hmm, I appear to have loads of pending credit :( I have 45K in the stats my my Bionic clients show over 180K.
 
Stats up soon,

We are 139756 behind OCForums and 213522 ahead AF Roadrunners, here's hoping we can improve on those :)

Cheers, Simon.
 
Well, I took the plunge and ordered a 250 (the one Marine Iguana linked to [this one]) . It was shipped earlier today, so fingers crossed that it'll arrive tomorrow and be up and running asap :)

Haha :D

Not yet - it's not up and running, and I don't want to tempt fate... have never owned an nVidia card before, so it's completely new to me :eek:
 
The good news is we pulled ahead of (AF) Roadrunners by 75193 new gap is now 288715

Not so good we only closed up by 7673 on OCForums, new gap is now 132083

Cheers, Simon.

I just got one going, it was new to me too but I can testify that it works nicely, lifted me off the bottom rung (sorry Mr Chasser :D)
 
So much for running away from you in the Gauntlet leaderboards TheTross. :(

Still, I thought my RAC was stable. I was wrong...

Didn't quite achieve my first target in time for the update, but it's done for the next one. :)
