    Folding@Home

    I am folding with a Core 2 Quad running at 3.6 GHz. So the scores that appear on the folding site should give you some indication how they do.

    SSDs - State of the Product?

    You could download the trail version of O&O Defrag and see if it's version of Trim helps your SSD. Be an interesting test before you trash the drive.

    Electric Cars

    Where I work we use about 15,000,000 kwh of electric per month. We are supplied by two, 3 phase, 69000V lines. There are times throughtout the year when the power company ask us to cut down to the minimum for 8 - 12 hours. Basically, lighting. Our electric grid needs some serious updating and...

    When to Build New System

    "Low power" is relative. If you need 1200W, then 25% is low power. If all you need is a 400W power supply, 25% is not low power.

    When to Build New System

    A check of a 1200W power supply test at HardOCP, shows a very respectable efficiency at low power. The quality of the power supply would determine how well it handles loads from light to heavy.

    When to Build New System

    I think it's wise to be over powered rather than just enough, underpowered, or marginal. A larger power supply also gives you a little 'furture proof' for any changes down the road. Of course you can also go overboard too.

    Weird free space problem with 2TB drive

    When a file is deleted it is not really removed. It is just removed from the MFT ie:index. Could it be that windows is counting the 'deleted' file as used space because the clusters still have data in them? CCleaner has an option to 'clean' the empty areas of the hard drive without removing...

    Hmmm...I don't think you can charge a battery with a battery. At some point the dead batterty and the supply battery would equalize at some point below full charge.

    Yes I have the radio buttons. When I run the 'Autodetect GPUs' I get a message that there are no NVidia compatable GPUs. I'll keep trying.

    Apparently the utility doesn't support ATI cards at the moment. I downloaded the client and will see if I can get going.

    Back in the early eighties, Coke came out with 'New Coke' One of the changes was that they switched from sugar to corn syrup. After that debacle, they came out with 'Coke Classic'. But it still used corn syrup. Once Coke started using corn syrup, a lot of other food companies started using it...

    LCD Woes

    You could try pointing out the energy savings that the company would get if they used LCDs. Also, the reduced A/C load from the reduced heat from a LCD. Put all this on an Excel spread sheet as that seems to be the only thing managers look at these days. :frusty:
