Last year I showed them my power bill....and this year it is higher again, dammit!:5censored::5bomb:
I will replace my HD 3850 (75 Watt) with a HD 6570 (just 44 Watt), not re-use my HD 3870 (105 Watt),
try to replace my GTX260 (205 Watt?) with a GTX 560 (150 Watt) and the GT 9500 will be replaced with a GT 430,
twice the results (at least) at the same cost (both use 50 Watt).

And to top this all I will try to replace my lower-end AMD system (a socket 754 Athlon 64 3400) with a FM1 system
based upon a 65 Watt A8 3800 quad-core CPU/GPU and the above mentioned HD 6570 will work very nicely indeed in this setup...

Next goal: a place within the first 1000 BOINC users (currently #1420)
