DaIceMan & martini161 what is going on?

[martini161]

ok, it has been straightened and expanded

right after the cutting wheel, just gotta file and debur it

all done as you can see i had a few slips with the dremel when i was deburring it, but im gonna go buy paint tommorow (hopefully) and ill try to take care of it then

[vbironchef]

Looks good so far. Do you have everything ready to go after painting? How long before start-up? When are you going to get back in the fold? Sounds like top gun, sorry about that. Are you going to compare temps before and after you mod?

[martini161]

hopefully unless something else died itll be up by the end of the weekend. unfourtunatly the before and after temps wont be compareable because in the midst of all the modding i also upgraded my radiator

[DMB2000uk]

Now that cut is much nicer

You know it makes you feel proud to compare that hole to the first one you made

Dan

it makes me feel better that my cut is cleaner than yours but you cheated by covering it with a radgrill

[martini161]

well i have some good news:
SHE LIVES! gotta finish up with the wires and ill post up the pics in the phantom lord rig in the modding section

[vbironchef]

martini161, when are you going to start to fold with your new rig? I took a day off just because I needed a break from the noise and heat. I started back up, how about you? I hope you pass me up so I have a excuse to build a new rig.

[martini161]

probably not till next weekend, i had to RMA my ram as it started throwing up errors of 7 minutes of memtest

[vbironchef]

martini161 I hope you hurry up, now is not the time to be passed up. Let's get folding

[martini161]

unfourtunatly i cant make newegg or ups go any faster

[vbironchef]

martini161, Have you heard from newegg?

[martini161]

according to UPS, it got delivered, which means they should send the replacement out monday and i should have it by tuesday or wendsday

[vbironchef]

martini161, you just got passed up like you were standing still. Hint, Hint, let's get a move on.

[martini161]

id love to but its pretty hard to fold on a machine with no ram

[vbironchef]

So how does it feel to be winners? DaIceMan & martini161 could you please give some updates on your status. Pics would be nice as well

I'm still waiting for an official announcement. Everything I count looks like I won, but I'm waiting on word from TPTB (the powers that be). As soon as I hear and get the parts, pics will certainly be forthcoming, though they will be living in a rather ugly case for a while.

[martini161]

as you can see in my folding stats my rig is back up and folding gpu only for now though until i get my oc stable, might have to rma the mobo again but i wont be doing that until i get the new rig i won up and running, that way i wont be falling to far back

[DaIceMan]

Got my motherboard back from RMA today. Won't have time to get it back together until probably Sunday though. Got some work to finish up the next couple nights, family in town this weekend. Be nice to have the twins (2x Gigabyte 8800GT) dropping 10.5k ppd or so again.

[vbironchef]

Keep in touch

[DaIceMan]

Well, the dual card machine is up and running. I'm going to let it knock down a couple units before I get into any crazy tweaking on the cards. It's showing about 9500ppd total for the 2 cards right now, so I should be able to easily get it over 10k ppd with some tweaking.

I haven't got a chance to work on the core system yet today, but my total ppd is sitting right at 24.5k right now, so after I tweak the 2 8800GT's, I should be over 25k ppd with no problems at all.
