That's a nice pile of stuff you have there, zlojack.
My little rig is folding away right now and you're making it feel really bad.
Anyone want to send me a couple more gtx275s ?
:canadianwave:
I can't wait to get them all together!

Holy smokes. What's your monthly power bill like? :)
I'll tell you when I get all those cards running.

hopefully my PPD will be back up, had a few crappy days after switching from XP to Win 7 on one machine, and been playing allot of L4D..

Does anyone else feel guilty playing games when the machine could be folding?? :biggrin:

so I just dragged a old 2.4 KVA UPS out of storage to be used on the folding machines as my APC 1500 can't deal with the load now and I still want to add/upgrade some more..

batteries are toast so will grab some new ones Monday, needs 4x12v 26Ah looks like its gonna be about $300 for them all.

check this bad boy out.. and look at the size of isolation transformer :)

HOLY CRAP, look at the size of that isolation transformer (that's what she said). That is ridiculous, though mind you i've never looked into the case of one of those anyways. On another note, i'm 5 points away from my next milestone, which i'll be at work when it ticks over :(

Folding as sbrooker, the UPS is heavy, batteries are 210 Lbs and the unit has to be about 100lbs empty.

oh yes the cards produce!! wu's/noise/heat :biggrin: and probably a good power bill.

ive got a bunch of Glass power meters "like the kind on your house" gonna rig those up one for each system and keep track of system power usage see how much its really eating.
