I'm trying to think of a way to convince my parents i NEED a GTX280 Tri SLI system.

For some reason even though i earn my own money they still wont let me upgrade without a real need for it

For folding that's actually not the most efficient way. 4 8800GT's in two rigs will at least fold at well (and with the SMP clients on the CPUs they'll fold better for sure).

You should convince them you need a second rig (data server.. )

They already complain we have too many computers (which is actually nothing compared to a lot of members here)

Yeah, I had to start paying the cost of the electricity above the cost for the previous year. Since the cost of power goes up during the summer months, note how my folding points have dropped.
