I suggest the 2500K is because it has unlocked core multipliers... While that sounds awesome, I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about http://www5.picturepush.com/photo/a/6152813/64c/Memes/HerpDerp.png This setup fit pretty well in budget, but now I'm wondering if my 650W power supply c...

Personally if the price difference is not too great for you, I would try and go for the 2500K rather than the 2400... Here is a comparison between the two. while you can see that 2500K does perform a bit better, the main reason I suggest the 2500K is because it has unlocked core multipliers... but I...

yes you would be able to run 6 screens of that, and I belive that card is quite a bit better than the 475, the 6950 is a duel GPU card so that means it is almost like a duel core CPU, quite a bit better than single core...

and il see about borrowing a friends leaf blower for the air supply. Il also see about a lid for it too, which will help in terms of heat, just like having more air and coals will. :D just remember too much air can actually blow heat out of the furnace and cool it down too, so rig some kind of air ...

Though if you're going for propane you can probably liquid fuel it with diesel cheaper... or maybe free if you have some fast food places nearby that'll give you cooking oil. waste oil is really the way to go with home foundries, but the only drawback is you need to make your furnace from at least ...

also I would like to add that if you added compressed air to your naturally aspirated burner (blowtorch) you would created a highly oxidizing environment in your furnace that eats through your crucible in no time at all, and you create a hell of a lot of extra dross. foundry furnaces really need the...

your blowtorch cannot create enough flow to heat a furnace, and if you removed propane from its tank at a rate that would work for a furnace, the tank would ice up in minutes causing the pressure to drop to a point that you won't be able to run your furnace, you need at least a 9Kg tank to run a fur...

use butane (lighter gas), beat them on a technicality :D :P
you can also tell them that butane is the propellent used in hairspray, and that you are simply being less wasteful by only using butane and not wasting any hairspray...
