    kaujazz - are you sure?

    GeForce 7 series can't fold - only unified shader GPUs can fold. Maybe you downloaded and are folding on your CPU core(s) instead?

    jmml - I think you can safely assume 84, as kaujazz's GeForce 7 can't be folding.

    Right well 84 it is then!

    By the way, does anyone know the benchmarks for getting your name in CustomPC? I can't find the latest issue; the first one I've bought since 2007. Back then the entry requirement was 20,000. I'm hoping they make a song and dance about the 1bn points!

    It's impossible for a X1k series card to fold right? If it isn't then I'll happily fold it constantly, I can't even get the begger to 40C so heating is still required for me XD

    an about an month or so i bring my fold rigs back on line (60K ppd maybe) got an site that will do air con cooling at constant 21c and power for 3 systems (thats around 3KW i could use) for £100 an month secure site as well (id still prefer it to be free)

    the 140 systems that i have got listed on fah web site stats are dual and single core systems that are running at 82% priorty (so to not mess with system resorces{most are infact at 85% but i am lowering them to 82 when i get back to them}), i still not RMA my GTX 280 that does 3-2k PPD less then 150 computers

    GTX280 set the fan to 100% or what ever keeps it below 80c or lower if you can as it could die after 4-6 months

    Congratulations on getting 7 GPUs running on the P6T7 board. I think this is the first successful attempt that I've heard of. Did you try to push the system higher, for example, adding a double GPU card in the lowest slot?

    Unfortunately we don't four dual-GPU cards in the lab at the moment so I can't try this out. Given how much better the P6T7 works with folding than the earlier P6T6 I would imagine it would work fine.
