Not alot of entries. You should of let us know. Someone here could of won the other. You'll have to do a penance of 500WUs under a random alias or forfeit you winnings to the nearest local teammate.

lol ,great win!

So what spec is a D830?
I've lost track of what all Intel's numbers mean these days!:roll:

Its 3 gig dual core, should be nice and hot. Just noticed the mobo is ATI Crossfire. I guess its going to be a couple weeks till it gets here.

Just had to rma my mobo in sig so that rig is down for a while, two mabye three weeks I should be back up to speed!

Nice and hot is an understatment, mine was running at 70-75c on the stock heatsink..but it was a bit more reasonable with the jungle512(60c). Congrats, can't beat getting a dual core for free!!

Nothing like that fresh hardware smell. Beats new sneakers any day.

Got it sitting on the desk now, just finishing up the xp install. Will have it crunching in a short while!

 

[CheesePoofs]

Wow, nice win!

Happy crunching

 

[crispy2010]

WOW, this setup is fast. At stock bios the cpu reports 3.26. Awesome job ecs!!!!!!!!

Temps are at 58c, this is with dpad on cmd line, not in case! The #'s this puts out makes my 570 look like a celeron!

 

[Assimilator1]

So how many Kpts/s does that rig do?
