    I wonder how it crunches... 64c/256t booting winderp

    KNL (knights landing) version of the Xeon Phi is now bootable, as opposed to being a coprocessor last gen. 7210 is the "cheap" one at $2438 ... Still a bit rich for my blood but I can drool over it. Thought you fellow DCers would be interested.

    PG does it again... GPU's no longer important.

    I guess they have warned us time and again not to buy hardware just for folding but it would sure be nice if they would be consistent for more than a year at a time. Details here... goo.gl/l7vVC8

    Give Money to the projects that need it directly... don't give them 90%. For profit BTC pools are 2% or less. 10% for a charity pool is ludicrous. You are buying points.

    G9x replacement...what do you game on.

    My G9x is wearing out and I need to find a replacement candidate before it dies. The weight drawer has been jammed from day one... and as it is still under warranty I will probably see if they have any spare g9x's around before this one passes out of warranty. That said Logitech seems to have...

    12800s < s?

    What is the s in pc3-12800s stand for? It is a SO-DIMM, is that all it means? 12800r would be registered, e would be ecc, this is just the first time I have seen s. I don't really see a reason for labelling a so-dimm s on the end... its kinda obvious its not a full form factor dimm. Any thoughts?
