The Folding@home SMP client takes advantage of multi-core CPUs to perform folding much faster than the standard client does. Running the SMP client, especially with a passkey to take advantage of the bonus program, means that anyone folding on a multi-core CPU will get significantly more PPD out...

These games are awesome top-down shooters with pretty nice graphics and a hell of a lot of alien killing. If that sounds like your thing, you'll want this ;).
I just noticed it on Steam a few minutes ago. Here's the link: http://store.steampowered.com/app/40940/
For retail copies, you can get it from the Gearbox store: https://store.gearboxsoftware.com/
I'm not sure if I'm going to get this one, but it's nice to see that it's being released...

Title says it all. Not looking for any particular batch or revision; just a Q6600 that works. I'm in Canada, so you have to be willing to ship it here (shipping a CPU across the border is super cheap anyway).
PM me with any offers please. Heatware is under Zero82z.
Edit: CPU found.

No warranty, but $275 is a damn good price for a PSU like this, and some of you mega-folders could probably put it to good use. Here's the review: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=175
I just stuck a pair of 9600GSOs into my secondary rig, and although one of them is folding away fine, the other one won't complete a single step and is just EUEing constantly. I've tried deleting the work folder and queue file multiple times, but I can't seem to get it working. MachineID is set...

Combo: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/1898/
Bionic Commando ranges from mediocre to bad based on what I've heard, but Rearmed is excellent and definitely worth the $10.
