    Since I've reached 75,000,000 on Collatz, tomorrow all the GPUs will be pointed at Milkyway. That plus the new card should put me somewhere around 900,000 a day. If you add in Laurenu2 and Alpha that should put the team at about 1.5 Mil. a day. I guess a lot of people just dont understand that by adding a lowly HD4850, which I found on a US retailers website for $109, they will gain about 70,000 credits a day. And to top it all off, you can put it in any old computer with a PCIe slot. I've got an old Sempron 3000 making over 70,000 a day.

    All the GPUs I have are now pointed at Milkyway. Just sitting here waiting for my HD5850 to arrive.
    So far there are

    2 HD4890s
    3 HD4850s
    10 GTX260s

    Average work according to Boinc manager is 260,000 and climbing fast.

    I would first check the power supply and then the GPU fan. I toasted a couple of those before.

    Wow he's running a three legged race all by himself.
