Since I just ordered a new EVGA 560 Ti to go with my 2 year old EVGA X58 760 (which my dumb brain failed to register) and because I'm in a mood to slowly upgrade my system, I decided to tax the bejeezus out of the CPU and fold.
Guess you can call me a newbie at this.
A few things about me:
I hold the patent for dirt, meaning I'm an old fart (56).
Currently running an Intel I7 950 with 12 gigs of OCZ Gold. Yeah it's old too.
Tomorrow my new 560 comes in to replace the 275 in my system and that 'old' card goes into a build for a friend who is a bit down on their luck.
I don't OC yet, played in that arena years ago but it was iffy back then. I need to learn more.
That's about it, oh and I joined the EVGA folding team... eh, it's a good cause and like many of you I keep my system on 24/7. Had to find some way to justify the upgrades.
