I7 920 or 2 x 55xx

[MarkOne]

so a such PC with the rad , pump block will cost me between $ 1000 to $ 1400 for 25-29k ppd. so for now I'm better to order 4 more 260 that will cost me $ 900 and give me 33k ppd. and it can be progressive the 920, I need all the part to start . since I have the boards to run the GPU and PSU to spare. I will go latter for the bigadv. But we have not lost time tonight. I take good note. because I will run out of slot one day I was in the impression it was 25-29k + the bonus

PPD/$ will be pretty much the same, however you are going to consume like 1/4 the amount of power.

Yes electricity is a big consideration. The bigadv route will save you power.

Also, I would rather 'babysit' one bigadv vm machine, than 3-4 GPUs folding....

It is 25k plus the bonus, but it takes ~2 days for each WU so it averages out to ~ 20 to 28K per day depending on how big a bonus you get.

If you really want to experiment with -bigadv just use your 860 and see how you like it...

An update , this week I don't order a GPU, I order a i7-920, so it's look like I'm in the way for a bigadv

ya but he gone take time, cpu this week , motherboard next week etc.

I have to find witch motherboard, I don't know if I gone Water Cooled the motherboard with block, Since the rig is in the garage, I may do a kind of heat exchanger to chill the water of the cpu, like put the rad in a water tank, with running water
