I fold for NCIX for last 4 months, can't even get tag from them. NCIX is getting too big and bloated...

Let's get these facts straight..
I'm better off using the SMP client for my CPU.
I cannot fold with a GTX260 and 9800GT.
I'm not entered for the GTX260.
Haha yeah, I've been splitting my time between WCG Boinc and F@H and now I'm doubting the wisdom of that decision when I might have posted enough to get in the GTX 260 draw.

Soooo...

Not to sound pushy or look a gift horse in the mouth...But when are the 'oldtimers' going to find out about that gtx260? This guy could fold alot better if I wasn't using an 88gt to get points .

I was going to buy a 275 to fold with, but I would kick myself if I won a core 216 and couldnt SLI them, so I'm going to wait till its drawn.

So yeah, eta?

Heh.... I don't think we've discussed it yet, but my assumption was that we'd be doing both drawings at the end of the 30 day contest period. :)

Dang, you guys have contests and prizes for folding eh? I almost wish I'd come here more often before I signed up at Techpowerup. But I'm afraid I'm loyal. Best of luck hitting 100 guys, and if you keep the 400k+, I look forward to you guys gaining places in our rearview mirror. If the upward trend continues you'll pass us too.

This is our first Folding oriented contest so you haven't missed much.

I feel the same as you, wouldn't switch Teams for anything. It's the Folding that's important, the points and stuff is just a bonus.

Hope to see you in our rearview soon...
