    What Movie Is This?

    So I've been racking my brain over this movie I saw years ago. The details I have are sketchy... Probably 70's At the beginning an android escapes from a lab. At the end the android finds a secret "base", which has 100's of previous generations of androids laid out on "slabs", then I think he...

    Folding on nVidia GPU's Questions

    OK guys, I have yet more questions... This time specifically about folding on NVidia GPU's. 1. It seems as a rule of thumb (whether under Linux or Windows) that 1 CPU core should be "allocated/available" for each GPU you're folding on. Does this include hyperthreading? i.e. What is the...

    Which GPU for Folding?

    atm only nVidia GPU's are supported for folding in Linux. There is a siginificant advantage to be gained when SMP folding in Linux as opposed to Windows. You get a much better TPF -> QRB, and the OS is free!! Does anyone know if there are similar advantages to running an nVidia GPU under...

    F14R – Fold one for Redline.

    F14R – Fold one for Redline. OK guys this is something I’ve been thinking about for a while… When I first started folding, I found it quite frustrating that for my first 10 hard earned Work Units (WU) I only received a very small amount of points because they didn’t qualify for a Quick...

    Tailored Motherboards

    The Phantom Corsair

    When I was searching for pictures of the new Corsair 540 case, I found this... "The Phantom Corsair is an automobile prototype from 1938. It is a six-passenger coupe that was designed by Rust Heinz, a member of the H. J. Heinz family, and Maurice Schwartz of the Pasadena, California."...

    Playing Games without a CD/DVD

    Having watched Tom's recent video review of the 900D, he was once again championing the cause of the optical diskless system. I completely get it from an aethetic, cable management & simplicity of use pov. My little lad enjoys playing Lego games:- Bionicles, Lego Star Wars & Lego Batman...

    Smaug

    Smaug This is a build for my little lad, who has been working extremely hard at school, and it’s his Birthday soon. He’s currently running an aging 775 rig with onboard graphics, which limits the games he can play. I could have just put a GPU in his current rig – but any excuse to build...
