The addition & deployment of a state of the art NVidia card :occasion5: has caused a spectacular take off in Grant's output, especially since he switched it from SETI to Collatz

Just 3 days after becoming our latest millionaire he is more than a third of the way to his second million.

Well done Grant. Don't forget to wave to people as you pass them!

Thanks Willie. That's eleven years of Seti for me I think. The 460 made so much difference I had to go and get another one. They've both been O/Cd but I've slowed them back down a bit until I can cut more vents in my case! It's a shame I can't justify putting them in work machines as well.

Careful you'll be building a farm if you don;t watch out! :lol:
If you want a well vented case you cant beat this. It's a bit tight for space CPU HSF wise but it takes two GTX cards and a watercooled block for the CPU [or a stock HSF] readily enough.

I've got one & it looks great and works better.

Still available for £99 on ebay.

I am most impressed. Looks like thing's capable of vertical take-off... or levitation at the least.... ;)

Great take-off Grant!
