not that i want to give anyone an advantage over me, but if you want a peppy little chip that'll get you 50K+ a day on GPU only on Milkyway@Home (possibly more in Einstein@Home), check out the 2200/2400G. maybe redundant to mention price on this kind of site, but starts as low as $99 (oh, just realized fewer shader units), and i got the 2400G for $162. and you can game on it quite well for the price!
and the big plus for me is that there's no GPU (and/or GPU fan) to worry about killing. just CPU fan, and i THINK the included one is pretty quiet, even at load. hard to tell over my fairly noisy Lenovo i don't feel like taking apart to replace fan (if it's even possible).
only thing i don't know is how well it does compute on 1 DRAM stick opposed to 2 (i'm currently running 1 due to lack of funds)
undervolted -0.1v, my 2400G was running around 88 watts on WCG; 114 with GPU running, too. and not that it'll be doing it much with this crowd, system idle was 31 watts.
i think that's about all.
oh, and it does ~7,250/day in WCG... not sure if that's good or not
