    Possible to power a GTX 460 with a single PCI-E cable split in two?

    So I'm very short on PCI-E and molex cables for my SLI 460s. FrozenCPU sells PCI-E cable splitters, 1 to 2. Is it possible to run a 460 with a single dedicated PCI-E cable from the PSU split into two? Thanks!

    I need PSU cables

    I guess I lost some of my old cables, I'm short one PCI-E cable and at least one molex cable for adding a second 460. PSU is a ModXStream 700W. What's the best way of acquiring new ones? OCZ was not helpful and won't sell/provide new ones. The last time I used cables from another PSU...

    WTB: PCI-E or molex power cables for OCZ ModXStream

    I'm missing some power cables and I'm trying to hook up SLI 460s. OCZ hasn't been much help, so if anyone has some extra (burned out PSU etc.) I'll take them off your hands if they're compatible with the 700W ModXStream.

    Windows 7 Install: Can't find CD/DVD-ROM drivers

    I'm trying to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64bit from a USB drive to a SSD. I bought a license from Digital River, downloaded the ISO, put it on the flash drive and made it bootable. During installation it says it cannot find CD/DVD ROM drivers and prompts me to browse to them. I have no...

    I think I fried my eVGA cards, how to RMA?

    In the process of building my new rig and moving the old one out of its case, I accidentally used an 8 to 6-pin PCI-E power cable with the wrong power supply to both of my eVGA GTX 460s (both were red capped and black sleeved). The sockets were the same but the pin layout was different, so I...

    Best GPU for cheap folding

    So I have a relatively new desktop in the lab (Core 2 Duo) that is currently chugging along on the SMP client. Of course, it could do a lot more with a proper GPU. Currently it has a folding incompatible 7800GT that I had as a spare and added a few months ago. What is the best, cheap card for...

    Best way of promoting folding to the public and team-building?

    Hi everyone, first for full disclosure I should say I'm not a member of the [H]orde, I fold for the University of Georgia team #447 and I have >1m points spread across a few teams. We're now in the top 1000 (no threat to the [H]orde) but I want us to do a lot better. I'm a graduate student in...

    VisionTek 4850 hard crashes, need help

    I'm hoping someone out there can help me diagnose a problem with my new VisionTek 4850. It runs fine in Windows XP and folds at a nice clip (>90% usage), but I experience random hard crashes in games (BioShock, TF2, hell even the Spore Creature Creator). The games run normally for a few minutes...
