Sorry, I haven't been around lately, but let's not forget one of our most recent 10 millionaires, everybody's friend....

Frenchie!!!!

Sorry I wasn't on top of that, but hey, great work!! One of our best folders hits a great milestone, give it up! And keep on folding!!!

Thanks, It was nice to hit that milestone

Folding still going strong, except when I reboot for updates and I forget to launche the client (I cannot figure out how to launch it successfully with the scheduler, I'll have to look into that...)

And who else but Cordis, again, would hit such a high milestone :

Hey, thanks! Sorry I've been so absent lately, I decided to set up a dual socket machine to keep going with bigadvs after the deadline. That caused me to shift around more than a few motherboards between cases, and it's taken me a while to get things back to something like normal. And while that was happening, I had a crisis with my NAS and had to do some backups and rebuilds and crap. And I did an experiment with 3 gpus in a system, then had to shut it down after I couldn't get it any quieter than vacuum cleaner. But things are all humming along now. I'm way behind on my congrats to others though, sorry about that.

More congrats to cordis, man that's a lot of points!
For me 30k day ~ 1M months so I'll be there in like 7 years...

Hey frenchie you've now got over 12,000,000 points

Good work everyone

Is it just me or is trying to build a PC that's silent at idle rather easy compared to one that can run CPU & GPU folding and still be quiet :?:

For me I can't keep the CPU temp down at the same time as the noise. Well I can if I take the over-clock off, my i7-2600k @ 4.5GHz is a much, much hotter beast than the Q9400@3.2 I had before, a bit faster too of course :lol:

At the moment Speedfan is set to hold the CPU temp, of the hottest core, in the 75~80°C range, if I accepted a few more °C I could bring the noise down somewhat but I think this is already pretty hot.
At stock clock speed I estimate [from AC wattage and SPCR PSU review] that Prime 95 causes the DC wattage to jump by 60~65w, at 4.5GHz that figure is ~130w so not surprising cooling quietly is hard. Well it would be a lot easier if I got a decent case, but that would be cheating!
