Did you leave the stock case fans in or swap them out for something beefier?
Just standard case fans and the two Sharkoon Silent Eagles on the CPU coolers.

Brilliant job BUT....the spider cut into the side panel looks a little tacky and jagged imho, but other than that very nice 
its a known bug on SR2 at the moment.
its on the latest bios, according to the EVGA forums we should have a fix this week. [hopefully before collection]
seems to only do it randomly about 1/10 times.
i thought i had botched somethign when i was clocking it. increased IOH voltage seems to minimise its occurance
but a restart sorts it out

We didn't cut the panel you know. However the spider is something of an aquired taste. I love the case, not much for the colour or spider but it is a beast. Do want.

Totally agree, beast of a system. quite like the case and colour but it was just that damn spider that hurt my eyes lol. still with a beast like that i wouldnt care anyway.
Holy **** those folding screenies are nuts,
I get 2m 50secs on a standard A3 core, non standards (bigger ones ) like 7 mins and the big advs are like 30 - 40 mins
Thats on the rig in spec, with a rough 15-20k ppd, man id love one of those for folding, especially with those Gfx cards too, ahwell back to dreaming.

any way you can hint at the approx cost of the rig? Would the customer give permission for you to tell us what he paid?
even to the nearest £100??
Also question if I may...how many cores does each CPU have?

indeed, i am beginning to think the guy that ordered it was a lottery winner 
never even won a tenner on that scam
never even won a tenner on that scam
6 cores 6 threads. So 2 cpu's = 12 real cores, and 12 threads, so if any app can make use off them all its basicly 24 lol.
I think you mean 6cores/12 threads and 12 cores/24 threads
The same thing you have explained but it has the potential to utilise 24 threads in a multi threaded program.
It's all available on the OCUK shop and comes out around the £4k mark for parts so far as I can see.

Thats one hell of a crunching machine
Strange that SMP produces more than Bigadv though
Yup thats a lot clearer then how i put it *hangs head in shame* lol.
Nah not really, that rig can crunch thorugh many A3 units in a day, where it will still take 1 day+ for a big adv to complete.
And don't forget the quicker u do the projects the more points u get, so 100+ mins per A3 = a lot of points, my 5 hour A3's give me about 3.5k points, so it all adds up
Myself and many others on the team i fold for, gave up on big advs and just crunch through loads of the normal A3's, some still do the big advs, but they leave there comps folding 24/7.

Do you think you can bring yourself to hand it over when he comes to collect? It'll be like the Lord of the Rings all over again... (L0rd of teh Ringz)
Seriously though, if I had that hardware, I would have a massive side window! May not look sophisticated, but with hardware like that you have to show it off!

Would be good if you could hold on to it long enough to enter this years custom pc mags, dream pc comp. Though is crying out for water.
