    BoincStats aren't too bad for the WCG side of things. http://www.boincstats.com/stats/user_stats.php?pr=wcg&st=0&to=100&or=&ti=1411 http://www.boincstats.com/stats/team_graph.php?pr=wcg&id=1411 Given that I saw the other day on BOINC's main page a blurb about the BOINC client now being...

    PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR @ [H]

    Paul Johnson, great review. I for one appreciate a conclusion based on its peers and relative value to a degree. Hell, if not for that part of an analysis, I'd probably be running an old Sempr0n.

    Barcelona in Action 1P and 2P

    1) Kyle, you're the man. Journalism needs more Kyle Bennets. 2) How the hell does DailyTech circumvent NDA's? I don't care much where I get my benchies from, but it seems rather unfair that they and only they get the scoop. Surprised there hasn't been contracts taken out on them yet ;)

    New Project Information

    #1 in a [H]ardOCP team, I rock. http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/team_display.php?teamid=5560 I think earlier I saw someone mention LHC@Home; it's inactive, hasn't updates stats in about a year. They finished their original project and havent been supported for any additional work.

    World Community Grid Install Thoughts

    It's a known error for the moment that BOINC will sometimes throw a fit under Vista installing as a service. Your mileage may vary... But shouldn't have a problem under XP. Fair warning: 'show graphics' will not work when it's installed as a service. I just have it installed as 'shared' and it...

    So, do we have a decision to make?

    I only lurk here rather infrequently, less than I used to, but saw that happened with UD on the front page. I tired of F@H full time a couple years back and switched to BOINC, and it's been.. an interesting experience. I can say one thing about the BOINC client; it's a massive improvement in...

    Vista Innovation @ [H] Consumer

    I'm still waiting for Scott to show up. :p The other day I came in a bit early to a Canadian History class, sat down, got out my stuff, and started reading the news paper while I waited. Pretty quickly, though, the sound of uneducated prattle assaulted my ears, and I tuned in, and lo and...

    GA-965P DS3 Issues

    Thanks guys, great advice. After testing all the RAM individually, they all checked out -- even when I OC'd them. So I used what you guys said about bumping it up just past 400mhz; I went with 403mhz, and I could tell that helped, but not 100%. +.1v vdimm helped more, and rock-solid RAM at...

    GA-965P DS3 Issues

    I got together this new system a couple days ago, and after much tinkering, I seem to have some bum RAM. Relevant parts: E6600 4x2 1GB SuperTalent 4-4-3-8 (though I've loosend it to 5-5-5-15 till stability is established) @DDR800 Rev 2.2 with F10 BIOS Watercooled, Corsair Nautilus 500...

    BFGTech BFGR1000WPSU Review @ [H]

    I just want to echo what's already been said by 3 or 4 others about the charts. Nice idea, I think, having them as seperate pictures in seperate windows, but I too would prefer the chart be located right on the review page. Also, I don't know if the compression blurred it out but it was a little...

    Giving in, buying the NEC... any rebates/deals around?

    Aaagh! I was searching for 'LCD20WGX2', the model right off the TFT site, when its listed everywhere as just 20WGX2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824002320

    Giving in, buying the NEC... any rebates/deals around?

    NEC LCD20WGX2 That one? Froogle & pricegrabber come back empty for me.. Manual check of BB & CC come up empty too. I'd like to know where people are finding these caches of NEC's; they're hiding from me.

    Help Picking a WS Monitor

    I'm in a similar boat. I hit up http://www.tftcentral.co.uk and despite posts from just a month ago in the sticky claiming wide availibility of S-IPS monitors, for the moment, Froogle/Pricegrabber turn up nothing on the appropriate LG, Acer, and NEC models. Samsung 215TW seems top-notch...

    BFGTech GeForce 8800 GTX Water Cooled Edition @ [H]

    um, Leadsled, there are reviews out there benchmarking the Nautilus 500 with an OC'd C2D, chipset, and SLI cards under waterblocks and it still delivers fine performance. Not the best, not near-ambience, but about as good as one can get without going to much greater expense and effort...
