a few GTX 295's would out-muscle it(though that board seems to have 2 PCIe 16 slots also) but 256GB of RAM is nuts in every way

It's impossible for 3 5970's to be in CF. CF only supposts up to 4 cards and the 5970 is already a dual GPU

who on earth is that?! the only people i know that use LN2 are extreme overclockers that use it when they're in competitions because running LN2 is not cheap

OMFG ownage

[Darkstar]

[kylepaddock]

Extreme systems did a competition in my garage. LN2, Dice, and acertone.

[eden999]

darkstar, your points are pretty impressive, just wondering out of curiousity, what you're folding on O.o

[Wifuzzy]

Nothing...he's hacked the stanford servers...

Whatever works, right?

[stopthekilling77]

Ahh so this is where the naughty boys are talking smack

I'm glad we're competitively folding again, it keeps me from gaming too much and it's an excuse to push my overclocking abilities!

I asked a friend of mine today if he had a good video card on his computer. He plays WOW. HE said yea I have a really good card. So I asked him what card it was so I could check to see if it could fold for me. he says " its an X1300 radeon.....how old is that anyway?? Its funny though what people's ideas are of a "good" video card. I called another friend talking smack about the picture Darkstar showed of the 275 ( or was it a 285 ) and I said " man how am I supposed to compete with that all I have is an 8800 GT" he says "yea I have a 285 on water cooling myself, its a nice card". Nice is my 8800GT a 285 must be a least A really good card....trying to get him to fold for me. He said he would but I don't really want to call him 5 times a day to ask if he's folding yet ( which I really want to do ).

[stopthekilling77]

For a game thats been out as long as it has of course wow runs fine on it, but for F@H it's almost pointless Go figure right?
No worries though, give it as much as you can and don't kick yourself for not putting more out!
