View Full Version : GPU slot availability - BAR Program
Need to know how many of you have an available PCI Express slot for a GPU to run f@h GPU client. Please lmk:
1) # of available slots
2) primary GPU (if you already have one GPU but have an open slot for another)
3) f@h username
4) Would you need a dummy plug to simulate a monitor on an additional card
This is for our BuildARig program, we already have purchased one 8800GT and expect to have a few more in the following weeks.
Clearly if we sent you an 8800GT but you have no place to put it, that would not be ideal.

grandparents rig can hold a low power ati gpu
Good info so far guys. For those of you that haven't posted, if I don't have this info, then you probably won't be selected to receive another GPU via our BAR program.
Just sayin'

1) 4-6 (one slot on 780i, one slot on a OEM machine, 1 or 2 more slots depending on the board I get to replace ECS G31 (thinking a EVGA 730i, or 750i FTW board as replacment) Got my new i7 920, the mobo will have 2 slots available after it gets here in the next couple days.
2) 2x 9600GT on 780i, 1x 8800GT on ECS G31
3) surferseth
4) possibly, but could probably grab one at Frys just the same.
5) have 700w running 2x9600GT 500w running the 8800GT, 550w running i7 920 and possibly a 4870 (not sure what my boss ordered me)
1) 2 slots on Heimdall
2) primary is 9600gt
3) f@h username is Roisen
4) I have 2 moniters to use
additional note: I'm at a university so I get free powah / air conditioning

I know I'm new to the team and all, but anyway:
1) 1 available slot (I'll send my 8600GT to someone who's not yet GPU Folding)
2) 8800GT - Thanks to the BAR Donors.
3) Outback_Jon
4) Nope, I'm good, thanks.
My 8600GT which will happily be sent on to a Team 32 member who is not yet GPU Folding (and doesn't get picked for a BAR 8800GT or whatever) requires no additional power (no 6-pin connector needed) and is passively cooled, making it great for even a HTPC, or for someone with a lower end system

Assuming that running a card for folding in a X16 slot running at X2 would not restrict the PPD:
1)1
2)8800GTS 512MB G92
3)the_cultie
4)yes

jumpncrash
I would need a dummy plug, or 2, don't know actually, the computer has no monitors hooked up at all, so whatever that means.

2 Open slots
Primary is 8800GT-9800GT Ultimate- 8800GTS
Blake_Henry
None
(Folding paused on all rigs except my main due to loosing an 8800GT)
EDIT: Getting everything back up and going.
1) 2 Open slots
2) 9800 GTX
3) klear
4) no
I don't have an extra slot, but I do have an extra am2 64x2 cpu, case, powersupply, and hd that needs a microatx mobo with at least 1 pciex16 slot, if anyone has one lying around.. Then there will be another machine folding for the cure..
If I ever order my am3 board I could use that cpu...

I have one extra PCI-E power connector and should be able to power any 8 or 9 series card. 200 series I think I could run by it self otherwise is a no go.

Great info here guys.
FYI I just found out we are getting (5) (yes, five, as in one more than four) 8800GTs donated to our BAR program! That, and we almost have enough money in our paypal account to purchase another card! Incredible!
cw, wheres the pp account for donations?
