Last modified: 12 Aug 2015, 9:53:12 UTC You can put your own ID number in the 'To' box (comma space number - name not needed), and get it sent back to your own inbox. Not ideal, but if you've written something long and complicated that you want to keep, it's better than nothing. I think, Richard, the point was to ask for a solution, not a work-around. One can also copy and paste to notepad for saving a wordy and thoughtful intended PM, but should not be necessary if the system was working the way it does on many other forums. But, thanks for the suggestion, nonetheless. "Learn from yesterday. Live for today. Hope for tomorrow." Albert Einstein "With cats." kittyman ID: 1711651 ·

I would like to have a 'sent' box as well as the inbox for PMs. +1 Claggy This has been a pet peeve of mine for many years. I made the same request years ago to no avail. Unless the recipient quotes your PM when responding, you have no exact record of what you sent to them. Yes I copy and save all my PM's as text files. In my opinion it is a big failing ID: 1711644 ·

No, not for regular crunching. You can rescue tasks from the hard disk of a failed machine, but not transfer tasks between live computers. ID: 1708469 ·

Last modified: 3 Aug 2015, 14:50:11 UTC A bit of a GPU runs 40C when idle, if you truly want that temperature when under full load, you're looking at water cooling, or after-market fans. Or both. Until that time, just use eFMer's Tthrottle which will allow you to set max temperature for CPU and GPU. Those cards are designed to run around 70+ C that's why they have variable speeds on the fans my 980's run at 50C at full load with fans set to 60% duty cycle I would not be worried about the temp Watercooling will also not run the cards around 40C at full load they prolly will be around 50C I came down with a bad case of i don't give a crap ID: 1708067 ·

Instead of just on or off. Other things that would be cool: raise/lower CPU/GPU load in response to a temperature goal. I have two GTX780s that do a unit in what seems a fraction of the time as my CPU, but I can't run them when idle because they request 100% GPU load, which will put the cards up to 70C or more, even downclocked. If they could request a load that wouldn't raise the temperature beyond 40C, I'd be able to get a lot of work done without annoying fan noises. I really wish the client had the ability to let me run more than 25% of my CPUS 25% of the time without putting some real heat in it. ID: 1708037 ·
