GTX 260 216.
As broke as I am, I'd like to be able to maximize my PPD and the least expensive way for me to do that is a (used) GTX 260.
I know I've been bad (again ) this year, but could ya check your least a few more times? :bday:
*I already have thread in the WTB forum.
Thanks Santa.
What are you guys asking Santa for (Folding-wise that is)?

I'd be happy with a AthlonX4 620 and an eVGA 240GT (throw that sucker in my second PCI-e slot, and not have to worry bout power (uses PCI-e power only)

I realize that... but I'm limited on funds, and I dont think my PSU could handle anything that needs its own plug at this point :P

What I'd like and what I need are honestly 2 different things. Being super broke like I am right now and I've been amazingly good after the f'ed up year I've been through.
The only things I could really use:
1 - 2 GB DC Mushkin DDR (If Santa feels like it)
1 - 2 DVD +-R/RW/DL burner
1 - 2 939 SLI/CrossFire boards
I'm sure I won't get any of that stuff till I have the cash for myself.
Now want is a different story:
1 of these (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813151204)
4 of these (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103689)
4 of these (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130486)
Enough Blackline Mushkin DDR2 to fill this puppy to 128GB by 16 sticks.
1 or 2 Gal of 3m FC-72
a bunch of Lexan
Dual phasechange system
Oh yeah for that I guess I need a PSU huh......Yeah but hey santa knows it would go to F@H even when I was gaming.

Would love a whole Core i7 rig with a few 295's to run at work so I can fold more, couldnt afford to run it at home.

Well, Santa won't be doing it, but when the IRS gives me back my money in February, there will be several PhenomII quads and 260GTXs. (maybe something a little higher in my computer) Probably a couple of power supplies to allow the kids' computer to run GTXs.

Santa seeing I cant afford much this Christmas Some GSkill DDR3 2000/1600 Ram would be Nice for the M/B I won in Rossie Rac Harvest, and maybe a GTX-260 for the Wife for her Rig to Fold more,
But most important would some Prayers that the Wife gets well soon as she hasnt been well of late.
