    As I said in some other posts, time to get onto the GPU wagon, nothing special but a new rig has been born, getting it before that nasty VAT increase! Might grab be 30k-40k PPD, we'll see.

    Spec as follows:

    Coolermaster 690 II
    Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R Rev 2
    WC'd (Corsair H70) Intel 950 @4.2
    6gb DDR3, all the 9's-24 memory @1900
    Two 1GB Gigabyte GTX 460 Super OC @925/4200
    Spinpoint F3 1tb spinner
    Three XIGMATEK XLF-F1455 140mm super silent fans (honestly they are worth the money)

    Wont be 24/7 as every now and then I will be using it to let off some steam in COD, but we all do that from time to time, right?

    Creaping closer to that 500k PPD barrier! Whoop!

    That'll be some serious processing power ..... and I thought my electricity bill was expensive :lol:
    (Perhaps you've not had your first bill since you started Folding in ernest?? If that is the case, make sure you've got some Vallium handy when it arrives :hehe:)
