Did SETI back in college, havnt messed with folding but got the bug recently. The bitcoin craze hasn't really bitten me... mostly I just want to set up something that will break even over time, so that I can then switch it over to folding Bootstrap! Not even sure if it is possible to break even anymore?
Anyway, budget is loose, its whatever I feel like spending.... I would like to make the main folding rig one that I can use whenever Ihave time to game (which is not often), at high res. But 99% of the time it will be folding.
Folding Rig: Potential Budget 3k-4k
What I have: 3930k New in Box, picked it up unopened for $400.
What Im thinking of getting: GTX 780 x2, and water cooling the whole rig.
Bitcoin Rig: Potential Budget: Whatever I can come close to breaking even on, eventually
No clue... is it still jam as many 7950s into a rig aspossible?
Am I wasting electricity I could be saving for a second main rig?
Rigs Ive Just started folding on.
X6 Phenom
2x5870 eyefinity
X3 Athlon II
Nvidia 460
X6 Phenom
1x ATI 6670
I3-2100 (Mineral oil submerged 2.5 gallon computer, kinda nifty!) thinking of swapping inan i5
Thanks for putting upwith the noob post, Ive searched a bit but thought Iwould introduce my plans and see what everyone thinks....
