    It's been a good run

    It looks like my run in the top 10 may soon be coming to an end. I just got word that my lab will be going into full production and I have to hand the keys over to someone else to admin. I have a feeling when they find the f@h processes running, they will be killed immediately...not to mention...

    USB notfreds failing to download client

    This thing has been chugging away fine...until tonight. I came home to find it just stopped on 17% of a 2619 with no information following it in the log. The web browser still worked so rI ebooted the machine to see if this would remedy the issue. All boots up fine, gets a DHCP lease, and...

    Stanford updates

    Anyone else missing work units / points from today? Per logs a lot of my work units were queued but eventually made it through...I wonder if there is some sort of delay updating on their end? I have turned in work from at least 15 clients that I can count, but only am seeing about 12,000...

    e2180@stock make SMP deadlines?

    Title says it all... Tigerdirect has these for 49.99 after MIR and I plan on popping this in the Dell that I rip the q6600 out of. I figure until I get around to pad-modding (must read up on) and if it will even work on this chip/board combo, I would run the thing at stock. Is it worth it?

    Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme - Will it fit? -

    Can anyone confirm that the Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme will fit in a Lian Li PC-60 case. This is the older one that has an 80mm fan on the motherboard tray. If not, can you recommend me an alternative for a q6600 that I intend to overclock. I have a Zalman CNP9700 that does fine for an...

    Configuration Recommendations

    Hi all. I just got back into folding...used to run in back when it first came on the scene. I don't seem to remember the name I used, it was when the team was first started. Does Stanford purge for inactivity? Anyway, onto the machines. I have a e6400 and e6600 both running 2 consoles...

    BadAxe 2 and E6600

    I have just ordered these two parts and am currently searching for memory. I am not hardcore into overclocking anymore, but will probably try to squeeze some more out of this setup on air (probably a Zalman 9700). Looking at 2 x 1GB chips...I was thinking PC2-6400. Anyone wanna clue me...

    I don't know if it is a pricing mistake or how long it will last, but outpost has Nero Ultra 6.3 Retail listed for 49.99 + shipping. This is the cheapest I have seen for a while for the full dealio, not the OEM Express... There is also a 20.00 competitive upgrade rebate too with a postmark...

    filling stamped holes in steel chassis?

    What are my options to fill stamped holes as shown in the picture below? I have a bit of these to seal, about 3/16" in size, but whatever I use needs to be sanded and withstand the powder coating process. I want them sealed for noise and airflow reasons. So far I have thought about...

    sata cable specification

    I am trying to hide my SATA cables in my current project. I have two questions in relation to the routing. How prone are they to corruption from bends? How susceptible are they to AC and DC power/signal interference? I was hoping to sneak them under the mainboard and follow the same...

    Nvidia 5672 resolution changes

    Pump issues

    I have a danner pondmaster pump in my setup. I fill and bleed the system and all seems fine. However if I shut the pump off, then turn it back on, whether instantly or after a period of time; the thing stalls. It sounds as if it is trying to work, but it vibrates really heavily with very...
