Im getting the upgrade bug, i currently have a q6600 running at 3.6. What are the new x6 amd chips like for seti? Anyone use one yet? Considering that i have an ati graphics card, would i be better just buying a nvidia graphics card rather than upgrading the cpu?

Thanks for the replies chaps, i think ill keep an eye on the MM for a second hand graphics card.
 
On your recommendation, ive just made an offer on a gtx280 this morning :)
 
just to wrap this up, ive just got a 280 gtx fitted tonight. When did GPU's need all this extra power??? I have an enermax power supply that doesnt have an 8 pin plug so i had to use all the adapters..... my wiring wasnt brilliant before, now its just a mess! i finally got it working and boinc says noy work units for me at present. so i cant even see it working yet.
 
thanks for the reply installing the graphics card seems to have killed my stats!
i have been running seti for a while
 
my seti user name is kev.morris , My sig was working before, im not sure whats happened. I have to go out, ill have a look later :)
 
thanks for looking into this. I went into my seti account earlier and I can't remember changing it...... old age must be setting in.
thanks for the new signature. ill change it over when I get home.
 
Ive just had a look and i must have changed my seti name at some point. It does allow you to change your name in the account settings.
 
Hopefully a bit more to come yet :)

Thanks for the sig you Pm'd me, i havent got round to changing it yet but i will do.
