Make a folding machine out of the best parts you have lying around, overclock it as best as you can. And use any money left over from your GT to buy something for it.

If I knew how much it would be to ship my PC over I would so you could play around with my PC.
I've already done that, my 2600+ @ 2.3GHz (3200+) is doing 180PPD right now. We're looking at an 8800GT with an Accelero S1 for 95€ shipped, right now.

And shipping a PC in parts UK -> Finland is actually quite cheap
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

And for reference that 8800GT will do over 5k PPD.

They do no better than the 3870s Around 2000-2400PPD

Would do about 2000-2500PPD at the moment
8800GT does ~5000 (mine does up to 5800 overclocked, and depending on project)


When (If) the new Ati GPU client will be released, ati will start pwning again. The current one will grant about the same performance to HD2xxx as to HD4xxx.

This does, however, not mean you should not fold

No idea, not even the slightest estimate.
