Today #83; Tomorrow #80!
Although it seems weird to go through Houston via BYU, but that's probably because I'm from the Midwest!
And we're averaging over 8 million PPD! That puts us at #21 on the Teams Ranked by Points per Day Average Production!

It's done I just didn't start folding again. I haven't ruled out coming back completely but I saw nearly a 30% increase in my electricity usage when I was last folding regularly. I might get back into it but if I do I probably won't let it run as often as I was.
Maybe Fold at Idle Power to conserve power usage, get yourself into the Six Million Point Club. Make me not a liar...
Does the F@H program recognize video card upgrades and adjust itself for larger WUs? Or do you need to uninstall and reinstall after hardware upgrades? I'm thinking about swapping a couple of the video cards in my two computers.
I was looking up some info at Corsair and while browsing around I found the DDR4 memory I'm using had dropped in price 50%. So I went looking for a 32g kit and I think I scored the last one in existence. Perfect timing. I now have 64g of ram . While I was inside the case I decided to replace the stock thermo-paste on my water block with some Arctic Silver 5. That was a beneficial move. A significant drop on CPU temps.
I was looking at GTX 970 and 980s. They all come with a game"The Division" $99 value. Games a spendy now-a-days, wow! I wonder if it's any good? I could sell to one of my kids or their friends for half price maybe

The thing keeping me from spending money on a GTX card is Pascal. It's very close to launch and when it becomes available, look for the current GTX 970 & GTX 980 cards to drop. Magic Eight Ball sez April/May.
Well.... its getting to be summer here. I had to cut two of my machines back to 1/2 power folding. Man they put out the heat! 
While you may have a point there, I really don't think it will happen that fast. I mean how many people will be buying those new high end cards to fold with? I would think it's gaming they are after. I can't see Stanford crippling their folding network like that, unless they are running out of work. It will be a while before the new cards start doing a large share of the load and they start turning off the GTX cards, I would think.
I think he means he will buy a GTX 980Ti at the reduced price.
Doh!!I think he means he will buy a GTX 980Ti at the reduced price.
Anyone see my brain laying around? I left home without it again. LOL PS it doesn't look like much
