Got that quaddie crunching on stock. Asrock mobo does not like it past 280fsb so I'll wait till I get a better mobo. The cow is munching tho.  Maybe I'll get back to 10k per week.
Woohoo  Thanks KK. |

Stock?
What's that?
And your welcome. I'm glad somebody has found use for the extra crap I got laying around here..
So speaking of crap laying around, I have a couple of OLD gateway boxes. I believe they are low end P3's. Do you think it would be worth it to put them on crunching?
My current P3 took about 2 weeks for one console WU. I'm having problems justifying running it anymore. It really seems like it's not even worth the power it consumes.
What do you guys think? |

What do you guys think? | I sort of agree with you. There are more cons than pro on running those older boxes. I only have one single processor box left in the house. I am holding on to it incase I decide to use the ide raid. It use to be a duallie Gigabyte Ga7dpwdpx or something like that. I only have one cpu on it since I've parceled it out long time ago. |

Hmm..
I'll probably just leave them be then. I always try to give away older machines, but I've pretty much overloaded all my friends and family already with old towers...  |

Some of them are still running and I am always surprise when I open up the box. What ecs k7s5a with amd 1000 still running???
I've been looking on the links you posted about quad capable mobo. I am leaning more towards abit p35pro since it has raid but I looked at neweggs reviews and it does not sound good unless I checked out the wrong one.
That asus p5k looks like it has a raid and so far I have been rolling pretty good with open box from newegg. Last 3 open box mobo I got worked other than missing parts.
Yep I must have looked at the wrong mobo review cuz when I checked it again most people liked the abit ip35 pro.

MS home server is really a cool thing to use the old gateways for,
to bad MS is charging way to much money for it, $159 last I seen,
i'm thinking come on it won't get on the internet it has no player or photo stuff,
all it does is do backups of other computers on a network,
I was thinking $59 maybe, it does work good, but not worth $159 |
