Hmm, this folding malrkey has strange a strange effect - It motivated me to build today ...

After rooting around "the boxes full of PC bits under the table" this afternoon I managed to build another PC to help our folding efforts. Details under "Rig #2" in my sig below.

And that's not all...

I only need a couple of bits (primarily a hard-drive - i found 3 faulty ones in my search earlier today  ) and I'll have Rig #3 ready soon: P4 @ 2.5GHz, 512MB RAM.

Hopefully both will be folding away from next weekend.

O, and even the 'ickle P4 400 (MP3 box) is nibbling away at a Tinker as I type. Bless it!

Know what you mean having discovered in another post that large cores only available to P4 rigs I was tempted to get one just for Folding !! WTF spend lots of bucks just to get up the league table. I will do as you check the box and just get what I need for fifth rig and get all networked over Xmas. BTW how you got so many goodies in the box are you PC-WORLD ( Hack-spit) sorry for swearing.

Cheers Chris

Lol, Spike, no I'm not PC-World. It's just that over the years, despite selling-on a lot of stuff I've finished with, I've still managed to accumulate a fair-few bits and pieces. Mostly stuff I've picked-up 2nd hand some time ago that is now wothless or unsellable. Here are a few examples of what I saw in the boxes:

pre-release engineering sample Abit BG7 motherboard (will be in rig #3)
CUSL2 modified to run Tualatin CPUs (rig #4 maybe?)
bare slot1 motherboards with no accessories/cables/instructions
engineering sample P4 CPU (in rig #2)
vidpin-modded P4 1.8 @ 2.5 (for rig #3) 
older CPUs including Tualatin Celeron 1200 @ 1600 (for rig #4?), PIII700 capable of 1050, Celeron 600 capable of 900, PII 300 capable of 450, etc, etc even a Cyrix P200!
Geforce 256 32MB
3dfx voodoo 1 4MB!!!
Geforce 2 GTS 64MB
numerous hacked cases
lot's of (dead) hard drives
O, and loads of fans!

Also have a P4 Prescott that's happy at 3.9GHz and a spare Pentium M 730 (like the one in my main rig) but I really need to sell them on at some point.

Too much stuff, embarrasing really.
