Nah nothing so interesting i've been trying to avoid talk of the SB upgrade fever :(. I am (no really i am must resist must resist :mad:) going to resist temptation until at least Bulldozer and hopefully Ivy before i make any alterations to the rigs. If only the Q6600 would stop BSODing every 3-4 days at anything other than stock :rolleyes:

[conspiracy nut job] I'm convinced its an intel kill switch in the chip as it was as solid as a rock until literally the day before SB was available to buy.[/conspiracy nut job]

Why resist temptation, your human and were all prone to weakness!
I know i wouldn't mind trying SB, it's this whole upgrade thing that gets me in a twist i know i will do it, it's just picking a good time to buy something that will still have a decent resell value when the next "upgrade" comes along.
Personally am more excited about this dual gpu thats coming in Feb some time, if its what i think it is i wont bother with SB and goodbye a few months wages :D
Dooooooitttttt!

Edit: Using 0.5% of my CPU to power the GPU's I'll carry on somehow :p

Cheers Sah much appreciated, not crunched a single wu since took a step back trying to work things out but am having severe withdrawal symptoms, so i guess i better get cracking fairly soon!

**Edit** Knew i couldn't go much longer am crunching again, for all i was goading Mr Reaver into upgrading i find myself hovering around buy buttons today.....mmmmm i am weak i must accept that oooooo so pretty shiny new stuff :(

Or i was crunching, boinc seems to have slipped back into its old ways and has started dropping wu's after 10 or so seconds. I could understand if it was just one gpu but its doing it on all of them, no patience at the minute so its no crunchy crunchy for me :(

Haven't been about much for a while - I'm kinda taking a sabbatical from Folding at the moment. I did a vanity search and found this.

What was it you wanted to know dude? :)
