I think it's prime time for a push to the 300's. The only things I have folding are 2 Q6600's, an 8800Gt and the HD 3870x2 (only one gpu) I got off of you awhile back. I've got a Q9550, GTX260 and new P5Q motherboard sitting in the closet waiting for me to get motivated and upgrade my desktop system though. Once I do that I'll be adding the GTX260 and another Q6600 to the mix. I normally don't fold on my desktop, but when my numbers start dropping I put it to work.

I was having a lot of trouble running 2 instances of SMP f@h on the usb key folding machines (q6600's) so I dropped them back to 1 instance each and they have been running smooth for nearly a week now. I probably lost 1000/ppd each, but in the end I'm ahead because I don't have to constantly keep an eye on them.
The GPU's are incredible producers and the 8800GT and HD3870X2 on one core seem to eqaul the production of both my Q6600's. Because of this I'm actually thinking of getting rid off a couple quads and duals and going with 2 4 PCIe slot boards and running quad 8800GT's in each. I'll have to wait until after X-Mas though because I've exceeded my allowance for the month. Grin
