While Digging through the scrap heap I found something, something that may be Good. One of the Dells I have is a GX280SFF. So whats so good about that you ask?
The Specs DDR2, and a PCI- EXPRESS 16x Slot.
Now I just have to get some DDR 2 so I can find out if the board is any good. If it is I will be one step closer to the GPU folding.

Thanks Man, another dry spell on spamming here. Good news is I grabbed another one of those el cheapo gpu from Newegg. The 9600gso with wider cpu fan to replace the gpu on my midtower case which have been completing 100% and when it send the wu it would fail for unstable machine. I do not think I've been getting any points for work.

It ran fine on a full tower case like yours.

Anyhoo, its offical all of my folding machines are quad and gpu client combo. All four of them. That's all I got guys.

First off E, the CM 690 is a mid-tower..

Second, I did get some points when I had the unstable machine message also, albeit not many though.

Third, you got a helluva farm man. I'm impressed.

Money is tight here, so I don't think I'll be adding anything anytime soon..Unless I start selling more stuff off..

I hear you Karma, that is why all the cheap stuff. You know what they say its not the fastest but its who finishes. Doing DC for a while makes you do that, best bang for the buck. The buck is not always there. So you hope the bang last.

Your midtower is a whole lot taller and roomier than my older midtower (5 yrs old Antec) with just 1 80mm fan on the back.

I briefly read on Stanford site that they had a bad batch of wu causing unstable machine error. Maybe that is the cause but looking on the log files, this box had the most.
