Just a quick picture... the start of the build will be with two AMD G34 6128 CPU's upgraded to a total of four in a month or so. 8GB ram per cpu, two Noctua coolers, Mushkin 40gb ssd drive and a seasonic 850w psu...

I still have to clean and lap the cpu's / heatsinks and then it's just a waiting game to order the motherboard.

Ladies and gents, I give you the future number one folder for TeamECF.. if he ever gets the damn thing going i.e. :glare:

:D

Funny man~

It WILL happen! lol... I just have far too many hobbies. vaping, my Wrangler, Firearms (spare the criticism please) so all in all it's a pain in the neck to do it all at once. It will be up and running by the beginning of next month for sure.

Welcome Pnc!!

Thanks Loft, I'll wait to change it. I'm jealous...the only thing better than vape mail is geek mail!! I miss not being able to rebuild every couple of years!! MMOs used to keep us on top of our rigs, but as you can see by my specs, it's been about 5 or 6 years since the last rebuild. Being un (and under) employed sux!

Yeah, I know but I would like to help more. I feel like a turtle walking backwards. :(

If it makes you feel better my XP box that I tossed together rocks in on average 80 to about 140 pts a day lol

ETA: pieced together from parts getting thrown out at work....although I think the PSU finally is about to die

Although I don't think you heard your computers fan making a loud noise so you decided to give it a "gentle love tap" only to hear it start screeching lol

LOL! My video card did that to me.. it's a constant WHINE now.

My machine is quiet as a mouse and I don't notice anything being any slower than it was before I started folding and it's running at 100% 24/7.

I'm kinda bummed. Lately I've only been averaging 30k PPD... with 8 threads for SMP and my GPU running. 100%.

Side note... one of the vaping vendors I'm close with has decided to help me out and sent me half the cost of the motherboard. So now, I only need ~$330 to build the monster. Nothing to sell but we will see how the cards fall, it may be sooner than I anticipated.
