Today is going to be a good day for folding. I've already got 600 points turned in thanks to Prometheus finishing a big work unit (he's now chunking away on another 600 pointer which will take until 9/23). But Helios and Arion are already on pace for turning in 364 pointers and Epimetheus is back up and running and about to turn in a 251 pointer. That gives me 1,579 points for the day which is well above my average and raises my points per day to an all time high since I started 47 days ago to 556.5.
With the 1,579 points today, I'll move up about 35 spots on the [H]orde and be much closer to the top 1,000. My total points will be just over 26,000 and I need about 29,000 to reach the 900's. I also expect to be bringing another computer online later this week as I've got a new processor on the way. I figure the one I've been trying to get working for the past few weeks is dead and I've got two motherboards just sitting around doing nothing right now. Oh yeah, I've got the RAM, video card, and hard drives just sitting around too. So I just need the processor to get it going. I also ordered two new fans which I plan to use on the farm (kinda). One will go on HELIOS which is not part of the farm yet - it's my server sitting right here next to me. It's by far and away the noisiest thing in my room because of the Thermaltake Tornado cooling it now. The new Arctic Cooling heatsink and fan should not only reduce the fan noise considerably, but it should also reduce the temperature of the CPU. The other fan will probably go with the new processor and if it's as quiet as I've been led to believe, I'll probably order three more for the rest of the farm.
And I tried installing F@H on my new laptop, but uninstalled it shortly thereafter because I don't really want to be pushing the AMD Turion64 all day and night which will most likely shorten the life expectancy of the sweet HP laptop (AMD Live Strong.com).

Yeah I have - I've got the XP90 in my main rig here that I just built - very nice little bugger. But not quite as cheap as the Arctic Coolers.
