Hey guys (and gals)! My trusty 8800GT is starting to tell me that it doesn't have much time left, and I'm looking at upgrading. I'm trying to keep it in the $200-$250 range. So I was thinking, GTX460 or GTX560? Is there much of an advantage between one or the other, or is there a better...

http://folding.typepad.com/news/2010/12/server-room-maintenance-december-16-2010.html Just saw this pop up, and I thought I'd share. It would be a good time to do any upgrades or cleaning that needs done. *edit: Apparently I can't read. Its the 16th, not the 18th.

Chemical & Engineering News had a nice write up on the power of GPUs in molecular simulations. I'm sure it will be old news for most of us around here, but it would be good help explain what folding is to people who haven't heard of it.

I've been looking into getting a UPS to protect my gaming PC. The PC in question is the one in my sig. (Note: I do run the Folding@Home GPU client on the PC, so the GPU is drawing full power all the time.) I'm not expecting long life, just enough to keep it up if the power blinks quickly, or...

Had a little hiccup tonight. It was time for me to clean the dust out of my PC. I have been neglecting it lately. So I power down the rig in my sig, and clean out the dust and go to fire it back up. No problem I thought. It goes to start up, and no POST Just endless cycles of trying to...

So, the battery in my laptop (Sony Vaio PCG-Z1WA) needs replacement. As it no longer holds an adequate charge. I have found this battery, but I don't know anything about the company that makes it. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834997269&Tpk=PCGA-BP2V Has anyone...

Ok, I have some Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 ram. (4 x 1GB) 2 of them are BL12864AA804.16FD5 (bought 3 months ago) 2 of them are BL12864AA804.8FE5 (bought 1 month ago) I have them running at 2.2v 4-4-4-12 timings. They were running fine on the PC in my sig. I had my fsb set to 400, with...
