    That might actually be a good idea














    Although, on second though, I haven't seen many people sleep with headphones.. hmm..

    Before I made all the fans in my computer shut up (Old heatsink fan and PSU fan were pretty loud. I have water cooling and discovered an auto fan control switch on the PSU) being deaf helped in not hearing the fans.

    On idle, my PSU fan is the loudest (still quite quiet though) but the graphics card fan likes to spin and not push air (it's a reference fan, didn't know they suck when I got it xD), other than that, I guess it's fine. Also, that was only half of the reason I don't fold, the other reason is that I forget.. :p

    What CLC do you have on your apu? Would you be able to post a cpu-z validation of this oc, curious to see what sort of voltage and such you have going through it. Back when I had my 2500K I managed to get it to 5Ghz stable. Apus overclock a lot easier since they're a fair bit less powerful.

    I dialed the multiplier back quite a bit since it did next to nothing for performance and just made it slightly unstable. Running at stock voltage because for some weird reason I can't control CPU voltage at all. (In BIOS or any overclocking program) Because of that my bus speed is only overclocked by 15MHz. (Running at 4.2GHz. Some people can get over double the bus speed I have but I just cannot figure out why I have no CPU voltage control. It simply isn't there.)

    Hey guys, our team just broke 4m! More than half of that is by noah, so congrats! Also, our team has 15 members, but 21 CPU's, so someone/some people is/are running more than one! Kudos to all you too!

    Personal update: I can not fold with my CPU ever again (Until I buy a new case) any my GPU is between life and death, not folding stable. So tl;dr, I can not fold. If I ever get a r9 270/270x/280/280x (past my budget, mom's dislike of tech, and miners buying all the AMD cards) I will get back to this. 15 has its budget limits!

    If I wasn't so stingy I'd send you my rig and buy a 4770k and 2 r9 290s xD

    Trying to set up Seti on a Latitude D505. If it works I also have a D500 that could work too.

    Doesn't work. The time remaining thingy just resets to like 2 minutes when it goes down to 0. And the advanced control won't even open. Oh well.

    Oh yeah. If anyone has a thing going with other projects you could put them here.

    Also, tdev apparently liked the op marker idea. :3

    He did like that idea I guess. It looks nice. Its subtle, but works well.

    I ordered that psu but I've just gotten round to reading reviews about it and other seasonic psu's on newegg. Many said it was loud, only worked for a few days, and one even said it blew up his motherboard :/

    I've always heard that seasonic PSU's are some of the best in the business. Many people I have heard from have sworn to never buy a PSU from any company other than Corsair, Antec, and Seasonic.

    I'll see when it gets here.

    I'm just annoyed that I payed more for something I thought was going to be better and then found out it's kind of crap. Maybe all those were just lemons but I don't see how 19% of reviews on seasonic psu's being 1 star is a lemon. Who knows though, it might be the best psu ever for me.

    The reviews for my Coolmax CP-500T say it goes out after around 2 years.. The one in my system has been going for 3, maybe 4 years now.

    More people write reviews because a product failed then those that had it work perfectly. If it works fine people are generally just going to forget about writing a review. My friend has the same psu and its been working fine for him for a few years now.
