For some strange reason my post about mark adding new cards in his machine has to be discussed in the donation thread?

In whole RAC, I have only 2 PCs and will overtake you.. ;-D


If I looked correct he added 'only' a GTX465 to his GTX295.
It's a pity, that BOINC (the host overview here) don't show the 'correct' GPUs..
Now it show [3] GTX465, instead of [2] GTX295 + GTX465.


Yes, this is possible.. X-D

Yep I agree, he sent me an Email telling me the same thing about his machine. Seti sure makes hosts look better than they are. Wonder if there is a way to edit it?

Sure, just pull the 460 back out and it will go right back to the way it was. :-)

If it is, then I am in big trouble or not. Janice and Eric had window seats and both are pretty observant.
I would like to know for sure so. Can anybody verify?

Well......the cruncher formerly known as (banished: ID 421968) has returned to survey the lay of the land.

First, I would like to thank everybody who kept my thread going whilst I was gone and continued the donations, some in my honor, even though the original challenge was met.

Second, it would be nice to get an update as to whether the boyz have done all of their shopping and cut any purchase orders yet. If so, whatcha got cookin'?

Third, I think that Phase II of this server upgrade project would be to take advantage of Todd's generous offering of his 2 Xeon processors and build another server around them.

And lastly, for now......

I would be quite touched and honored if the new server were named Oscar, in memory of the dearly departed Maine Coon kitty that Lori and I still miss very much.

Meow meow.
