You know what I totally typed the wrong name i meant to give BigWop a hard time...lol ...The things that happen when ya post half awake....

I put another rig online folding the GPU2 client (it’s a dual core, so no SMP): 

    Rig 2  Opteron 170  GTX 260@602/1296/1026

- hopefully it’ll help taking on Taiwan Team, and maybe holding off OverclockingWiki a little longer

excellent zombiemaster. I can already feel the heat from your point production. I had better hope to win the rig in the contest just to hold ya off. Also i have narrowed the gap between me and larac to 1 million should have him out of the way by halloween

Fold On!!!!!

Seeing as I only have less than a tenth your points - don't think you have to worry quite yet . . . but I can't think of a better use for the contest rig!

I don't like to waste time letting folks gain ground before i plot how to stop em

Asus needs to hurry up with my board lol. I needs it.

I hate waiting on rma's

yup me too, I need a backup board is what I need. lol

mmmm backup parts. See that wouldn't work because then i would plot my way to getting the rest of the gear and then it of course wouldn't be extra

Dang didnt think bout that your prolly right.

With this post this thread now has the highest post count in the Folding forums history minus of course the sticky. 

lol Cool

 So does that mean you really need a dual core cpu to run the GPU then cause I had the same problem with both not running at the same time. I thought the gpu only utilized the actual gpu I didn't know it took cpu cycles too. sorry if that sounded really stupid but it is what it is

Well you dont have to have a dual cpu.  It only uses a fraction of the cpu. Like on mine right now it is not even using 10% of one core. They are not totally dependant on the gpu yet.

You can use both gpu and cpu in tandem but you must set higher core affinty on the gpu and set the cpu to low. Nice ppd bonus especially on vista of course this is on smp for the extra

Waiting on a PSU RMA myself, and having to run the Opty Rig on the minimum for a GTX 260 – 500W.  Having to operate in Apollo 13 mode to fold though:  no CPU/GPU OC, non-used devices shut off in BIOS, back-up drives disconnected, no lighting – every non-essential molex traced and disconnected!  lol

I hate restocking fees. I wish I could just return something and order it again. RMAs take way to long for people that only have one rig.

I vote for return and re-order too!  With all the rma rules, it's like you're getting punished because you ordered their defective product!

Yeah If you call newegg sometime they will give you a 10 or 15% off your next order and that offsets the restocking fee.
