Thread: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti works in ASUS KGPE-D16!

  1. #1

    Exclamation NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti works in ASUS KGPE-D16!

    Just wanted to let yall know that I was able to install a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti works in the ASUS KGPE-D16 dual AMD Opteron motherboard today. You can use the Windows XP x64 drivers without any issues in Windows Server 2003 x64 as well.

    The next step is to install a second 550 Ti next week after initial testing is complete.

    Getting ready for the big PrimeGrid challenge next month!

    SETI.USA is currently ranked #2 in the 2011 Challenge Series and Germany is right on our heels!

    Wow. We're actually a lot closer than I would have thought this year! That is great news.

    Also -- fantastic about your new board! I hope it O/Cs really nice in Afterburner and that you crank out some fantastic # of WUs for the Challenge! I will be there with all the GTX 460's and the CPUs, of course.

    I have plenty of hobby parts in my workshop, just very little time to install them all!

    Before, I overclock, I will need to put this system in my Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced. Just not enough airflow right now.


    Did I mention the HAF 932 comes with a dishwasher upgrade kit?

    *ring...ring* 'ello? "Hello!" *what can I do for you ma'am?*..."Yeah, this is DrPop's wife." *Uh huh...* "Well, I've been told there is this dishwasher upgrade kit I could purchase for his HAF-932, and I'd like to put that on his tab please."
    *OK, that will be $399 + CA sales tax, ma'am. Would you like to purchase the optional ultra hot water heater extension upgrade for the sanitizing setting? Most of our buyers find they like the option of an auxiliary heater when not running their computer.*
    "No, thank you, I don't think we'll need that. His computers are on 24/7 and with all those graphics card thingamajigies he talks about, they put out more than enough heat for dish water!" . . . LOL!
