My bill jumped up ~$100 last month too Yeah...I started running a dedicated folding rig with 3 GX2s last month, but dam....a new rig shouldn't cost THAT much to run. (one of the reasons I had to scale back until this Fall when I get free powar ...other reason being I have a big expensive move coming up this Monday)

And Mort, I shipped out the cpu and cooler yesterday Priority ended up being faster than parcel post, so that's what you got

I also just put a MSI K9A2 Platinum board up for sale, check out my for sale thread in my sig.

i've halted folding on my rack for now to see how big of a difference my folding rack adds to my bill. after that i'll be back at the grind of it.. i hope..

Yes, I know what you mean. At 1st you are passing a dozen or more Nicks. Then 1/2 at about 500K, after a Mil then you are down to one or two. Now at my 2M I might get three a week. But that is one of the fun parts I think...that and watching the radar. Right now the nearest catching up is 1.7YEARS and h00chi3 is two days ahead of me.

In 11 days I start a stepup from my gts250 > a 1255-ar 260(216) 55mm for 56.35US/63.17CAD including shipping. It will cost me about $23 to ship from my end. I won't be out a gpu cause I'll just grab another 260 here, some prices are $190 with a rebate so it should be ok for me.

good I hope you all cut back a little to help me catch up . I've got a long way to go but with the purchase of my new gtx 285 that leaves the 285 the 260 the 2 8800's the 4870 the 3870 the q6600 the i7 3 dual cores and 3 hd2400's
I'm getting there.

Hiya Piff James (my 1st name),

In no time you'll see yourself up under 500. In just two days you should climb about 80 spots just due to those that are not active. Just like Val and I were chatting about, climbing the ranks up to 300 you'll be hitting pages where only 1/2 the Nicks are on the job so it will go pretty fast.

Good luck in your purchases and your Folding

Yep, Folding does cost.

I have had to kill a majority of my overclocks because my AC cannot keep up. My guess is your AC is really cranking!

Maybe look into a duct system on the Folders to push the hot air out rather than trying to cool it. Like a dryer does. Actually that is the method alot of peops use, Dryer duct work.

Thanks .
Yeah climbing up to under 1000 took about a month. But it seems like a million is a long way away.
My main rig is going to house the 285 and 260 c216 and is going to be running in my office at work so 24\7 folding doesnt affect my Electric bill.

And Mad jihad if you check this thread ..stop f'in with me!
