I've got an XP 1600+ and an XP 1700+ on the way. One should be here monday and the other later in the week. Also got one new mobo comming. MY ECS K7S5A died and went where it belongs, in the trash. We need to get some more boxes folding, someone is comming up on us fast from down under. :)

Sorry to hear about the ECS board. Surprised you had trouble with it. They seem to be really good boards.
Anyway. Those new XP should rock :D

Those new chips will be very welcome. Let us know how fast they fold:D .
We really need to kick it up a notch or two or we won't be in the lead much longer. My main rig is now going 24/7.

I'll be replacing my k6-2 500 first of next month with a new MB and likely a Duron 850 or if I can manage it a duron 1ghz... It's possible I can get a pure folding box going shortly after that if I can afford to buy it a cpu, psu, and ddr. I have an old case I've been dying to MOD into an atx from at. Problem is I think I'd also need a router since at present my network is 2 NIC's and a crossover. Need one to setup my DSL next week, but money is just so da8m tight.

I already have a couple of them folding and they are somewhat faster, but I don't have any exact figures. I'll know when I get one in one of my main rigs. :)

I'll have 3 more going 24/7 within the next 2 weeks. Going to make these xp's as well. We really do need more people too. I am impressed at how much folding we do with the people we have.

I've got a Shuttle AK31 r3 in the mail with an Alpha 8045.... hopefully that will be folding with my spare Duron by midweek. The memory came yesterday (256 MB Crucial PC2100)

Well I could get one more box running next week but I think they will pass us before then.

I have every box running that I thought had the speed to fold in the time limit. Whats to slow does anyone know?

End of next month am building a TEC cooled system but that will take some time.

Oh I think I remember another system I better go set it up :)

I have one old celeron 300a that wont go 450 anymore. It was in my main machine for the longest time and got replaced last year. It will do one wu in about a 1.5 days to 2 days. I think the aloted time is 3 days.

Actually, all I paid (including shipping which was free) was $29 something, with the /evguide discount link. :)

Is it an AK31A or AK31? I have an AK31 comming but it is not an "A". I also have a Shuttle AK12A KT133A comming (it was real cheap). I might get an AK31A later if I like the AK31 I get. :)

Not only that but Stromlo_High is on that team and is getting ready to blow by me on the top 1000 page to the tune of 200 a day more than my output. Then again it's a whole high school. It's probably the only one there. :)
