$9.99 after rebate. Bought it as a placeholder while the other card is in RMA. Not listed on CUDA page, ...but does run it (e.g. msieveGPU -np). Shocking!

Yes it is, [URL="http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/cuda_gpus_uk.html"]here[/URL].

Thank you, Captain Obvious! :smile:
Surely, it should be somewhere.

But it wasn't easy to see here -

Isn't it about time the next generation of faster cheaper multi-cores came out so that the existing one can get REALLY cheap?

PSU is suspect; I wouldn't put any CoolMax PSU in a computer I care about.
It would be hard to get that system to draw over 230 Watts (even OC'd), so I'd probably get a PSU in the 430W-500W range. Any Corsair (except CX430), any Antec (except Basiq series), or any Seasonic (S12xx, M12 or X series) would be a vast improvement. If the budget is fixed, I'd get a cheaper CPU HSF and apply the savings towards the PSU.

Also note that you're not going to get much crunching done with an 8400GS. In PPSieve it's worth about one slow AMD core. [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814187034]A $55 9500GT[/url] is about 5 times faster; though it's still slower than one C2Q. If you want to do any trial factoring, I'd get [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814134087]a GT240 with GDDR5[/url], which is about 3 times again as fast as the 9500GT!
