  1. Sooooo still working on my PowerEdge T610... Got the risers and the harnesses in this week. Teaser shot... I need to trim the cooling shroud to accommodate the bottom GPU, figure out a GPU bracing system, and solder in the harnesses, and she'll be folding away in no time...
  2. I wasn't officially in the contest, but I started folding for Team LTT about the time the event started. Still happy to have contributed!
  3. This happens to me if I send the Finish command after the next WU has already been downloaded.
  4. If you select your GPU from the Performance tab of Task Manager, do you have the option to set one of your meters to CUDA? When my GPU is working, the Task Manager also shows a "Low utilization" of the GPU, but when I look here CUDA is always pegged.
  5. Looking at the power distribution board, it appears that the positive output of both supplies is common on the MB power header. Yes, one is supposed to be redundant in case of failure, but it looks like I can theoretically combine their outputs.
  6. The supply is definitely capable. It has two 870W supplies, and looks like the main 12v rail can flow a massive 71A. This is how it interfaces with the power board though.
  7. So I'm preparing to soup up the PowerEdge. I've been giving the system a good look-over, and I don't think my initial plan is going to work out so well... The backplane power looks too feeble to run two GTX 970s. The motherboard 12v rail seems up to snuff though. May just pull the power distribution board out of the system to look for better options.
  8. I'm rockin' my "old skool" Thermaltake X71 I've upgraded the HDDs and the GPU since these pics though...
