holy batman! Mindweaver, did you have like a seizure or something when hitting the post reply button. Just like posted all sorts of replies. Told you to stay off that booze! :p

I was told if you can't make company with yourself, then who else can you talk too?.... lol j/k.. I just made that up..lol Bro i was bored as hell.. and everybody went to bed early.. hehehe That maybe the only way I'll hit 5,000 posts...lol

lol...yea I guess keyboard and booze dont mix that well :laugh:

I liked your first statement..lol but no they don't..lol

how much you paid for it?

I've not bought it yet.. I was just saying if it needs to be 50 years old.. I'd have to buy it... :toast:

Both :D Go for 2 quads and the smartphone!

I went from a HTC Wizard to Titan, then to a bare bones Moto C139 for 18 months, and just recently picked up my HTC Raphael (ATT Fuze/Diamond Pro). While smartphones are not necessary they really are convenient. If there was a WCG Client for it it be crunching all day at my desk at work :laugh: I hope 'smart phone' doesn't mean iPhone though :shadedshu

What phone are you looking for?

And to keep this on topic a little.. No Fry's location in your area for the Phenom II 805? Is the price in your budget?

Looking at alot of the Palms and The nokia E63 ATM

also not so much a smart phone but the Pantech slate C530 is also on my list. But leaning toward the Nokia E63 because of the wifi (could be VARY useful at school and when i'm at friends house or other places with wifi)

I don't think there is any frys around me. The 805 will be in my budget next month(ATM don't have the $$$) but by that time they won't be on sale anyways...

It would be great if the egg had them for the same price.It would be even nicer if it made the athlon II go to around $80If that happened it would be great and i would sure hope all my board could accept them. If so i would have a quad in all 3 :laugh: :toast:

[PP Mguire]

Yea id def be putting an Athlon X4 in another AM3 board and fold with that too.

I used to be a hardcore F@H folder about a year and a half ago. But due to arguments with my family that eventually caused me to move out i had to quit folding. It was nice having my window open in 20 degree weather (F) all because my AthlonX2 cranked the heat out. :roll:

[hat]

Well I just moved to 3125MHz from 3000MHz on my Kuma so my points should creep up a tiny bit faster.

[hat]

Wow this thing is miserable... back down to 3000MHz... It can do 3 hours of linpack and play bf2 for ~2 hours, but it just BSOD'd on me after ~10 minutes of BF2. Yet other people can have it stable at 3.2GHz at the same voltage.

What the dick man.

[p_o_s_pc]

looks like if you want higher points its time to upgrade :D the Athlon II x4 620 is cheap and performs decent maybe look into that.(but they don't overclock vary good just like the old Athlons they max out around 3.3-3.4ghz)

also what voltage did you try?

BTW the other people could have been using ACC on there AMD chipset. you have Nvidia chipset so that isn't possible and could be holding you back

[hat]

1.30v for 3GHz linpack stable. 1.35v for 3125MHz linpack stable for 3 hours, then bf2 stable for 2 hours, then BSOD after ~10-15 minutes.

I don't want to upgrade as 3GHz is fine for what I do. The only fruit an upgrade would bear is more points in WCG.

that could be how your numbers are lower but still not bad. I'm only crunching on the 3 x2s and the 2 P4s.The rooms the rigs are in was just getting way too hot for me. maybe when it starts to snow(lower temps) i can stand to crunch full force again.

no big thinking: big rads (and small) will hold your water cooooool so the proc is cool e.g. has a lower leakage, which means better undervolting and lower watts used. they also dissipate the heat much faster than an air cooler, so no "oven-effect" gets to use (look at the maximum temp,you air shouldnt be much warmer. this will also benefit leakage +watts. i have no other solution to this... could be that the ambients suddenly dropped to a useable level :D

so your saying no not possible...I see it like this about the same watts of heat are getting dumped into the air no matter using air or water.you know as well as i do that if i had water i wouldn't be undervolting any i would be giving it more voltage and more speed and in turn would just make the room even hotter

[Velvet Wafer]

i believe the ring of devil is as following: voltage=leakage=heat=more voltage=leakage=heat
to simplify it: try it for yourself, if you dont believe it ;-) my 3.2ghz x2 cruncher (g2 stepping) with a stock cooler raised even the temps in the other rig, as it stand beside them. the 2.9ghz 939, which should be much hotter, runs unrecognizable cool. with water ;-). when your rad is cool, the air, traveling out of it, is also cool.sounds logical,eh?because water temperature is not equal to cooling capability. at a certain point, the temperature bottlenecks at the design of the block (with big rads). the water in the 939 loop for example, and the water in the 240 rad, never exceed 30 degrees much.tho the core temperatures are much worser,as normal.
do you understand? air as a medium is more prone to be as warm as the core temperature, than water, due to water taking much higher amounts of energy, before warming. air coolers also tend to suck their own air, or to circulate used,warmed air, if not configured perfectly
i dont know if you can understand that, but i hope it:D i dont know if my english is good enough for such a complicated task :-)

dammit, my QX had locked up. I loaded defaults, but for some reason it loaded 450fsb. It had a lower multi set so clock wasnt high. But a bus of that speed requires a bit of tweaking. Obviously since everything else was at default, it locked up. So I set it manually. Hopefully now all three rigs will be at full steam if nothing stops them!

[HammerON]

Sorry to hear that CP:(

[Chicken Patty]

man I'm plagued with issues. I think the issues I was having with the i7 are PSU related. with the CPU overclocked, although LinX stable, is causes the videocard to stop responding. Monitors go black, video card fan spins up to max and i'm forced to restart. I have everything at defaults settings/speeds and now it's fine. Anyway to test out the PSU before sending it out for RMA or something? Or any how to's online you guys might have came across?

The i7 is crunching, just at stock speeds, thus decreasing its output tremendously.

Would try single 3870x2, because if it is truly the power supply you might kill all the hardware that it's connected to. Then again, same can be said for your i7 rig.

naw, just straight into the socket.

Unless I am drawing too much power maybe? I have 3 rigs in my room, but if the power grid was to be crapping or something then wouldn't all the rigs do the same. I switched cables to use the one that came with the PSU, maybe this cable is bad???

[Mindweaver]

You can always test the cable bro.. but I've got 15 year old cables that still work.. hehehe Most of the time its just the ground pin braking off.. Not really the cable failing.. Here if you don't have one of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16899887004 ... Pick one up or a multi meter.

I think I got it figured out, I think.

I removed the waterloop getting ready to start checking stuff out again. I removed it from the mobo tray, it was not in the case though, I was just using the mobo tray as the mobos resting place. I put my qx cruncher in the TT case now :D. So the tech station where the qx used to sit, is now home for the i7. its on stock cooler but i loaded my 4.3 Ghz settings and without load I just let it run furmark, and it ran for about five minutes perfectly fine. I am at defaults now and crunching :toast:

It could have only either been grounding to the tray, or the block grounding, what do you guys think?

how can we nicely get some of our idle members going again?

[dark2099]

To the members who have stopped crunching, please rejoin us in our crunching efforts, we dearly miss you. I understand that crunching can be a big power draw amongst other things, and given today's economy still not being as strong as it has been, this can be a tall order. But we are not asking for 24/7 commitment like all of us do, only that you do as best you can. Thank you to those who already are contributing, we look forward to regaining the support of any members who wish to contribute again, and we will always welcome new members with great pleasure.

But I'm still getting thrashed by POS :(

[Chicken Patty]

i hope so but i think yours maybe alittle higher still because the CPUs you have crunching are more powerful. But if i get a board for the other dual(after i get the quad) then i will have 17 threads then i think we will be neck and neck

yeah true, but that's why I said give or take, but shouldn't be too far off.

Damn it! Ewiz took forever to get my i7 860 shipped out, and now the UPS tracking has just shown "billing information received" for 2 days. It's probably going to be another 3-5 business days before I get the chip, and my points are suffering!!



Good to see you back fits!

Don't worry dude, as you can tell we got your back :)

People have mixed experiences with ZZF. I've never had a problem though. They are just not quite as fast as the egg.

ZipZoomFly is a perfectly fine place to buy parts, I bought 2 PNY 9600GSOs from them for $40 each back in June, cards arrived 3 days after order was placed :)

Actually, you should look at ewiz too. That's where I buy a majority of my parts now, since I get taxed with Newegg. Fast shipping in general, and their RMA process is pretty decent.

Can't say yet, since I'm waiting on the 1156 mount for my Megahalems. The stock cooler is so lame that I'm only running stock right now. I did play around with the chip just a bit. I was able to run BOINC for a few minutes at 3.9ghz 1.21v. Had to stop due to heat. I'm guessing this chip will fly once I get the mega on top of her. ;)

you wouldn't happen to have a spare Mega right? I'd be interested in that, if not I'm purchasing one for my i7 my next paycheck. on stock cooler right now and i'm running stock clocks too!

No extras :laugh: I have 2 right now. I can tell you that it beats the TRUE by a couple of degrees, and has beefier mounting hardware. In some ways I miss water, but the Mega is the closest thing to water you can get, and there is no maintenance involved. If you grab one, get it from Gary at Sidewinders. He's got it for the best price, and he ships fast.

What temps were you getting or are you getting with it and what settings?

Sidewinders was the first place I looked, but PPCS has it cheaper and they are wayyy closer to me than Gary meaning shipping is faster and cheaper.

Thanks CP:toast:

POS is right IDK but It think my HT core take over 19+ hrs, is that correct:shadedshu?
But the Core takes 6-7hrs.

My E1200 cruncher, is netting 1000PPD:)

Im looking for another 9600gso to fold, check out my 8400gs folding away.

Hey all :toast:

I'm a newb to the "crunching" thing. I used to fold years and years ago, did a little SETI @ Home back in the day...been out of the loop for awhile. Reading about loonym (sp) and his situation got me off of my ass and back into it. :(

Currently just crunching on the sig rig. I stock-clocked it for awhile just to keep an eye on temps, and everything looks to be alright, so tonight I bumped it back up to 4.0 and we'll see how that goes. I also plan on installing the client on the wife's rig, and the daughters rig. Nothing special, just a couple of dual core S939's...but every little bit helps!!!

Anywho, greetings to all and glad to be part of the team!!! :rockout:

same got another rig crunching :rockout:

Thanks to everybody that has joined. This is for a great cause. It is even a better cause when someone that you have crunched with is fighting it himself. CRUNCH ON FUCKERS!!!! :rockout:

try it dude it may take awhile to fin up, my 2nd will fin in 5 hrs ohh well ill just leave it crunching all weekend :toast: not sure but i think it will load up the next set once u fin with the 1st set dunno tho

[Snipermonkey2]

Alright so just cleaned off one of my LAN party tables and found my KVM switch I'm going to set up both socket A rigs and see what I can get.

Hey guys I just got another rig up and crunching, not much but its doing work.

Rig specs, P4 630 with HT @3.2GHZ, on a P45 board. It took a while to get it to work but it crunching away.
Hopefully I'll get it up to 3.6GHZ soon.
Sweet, my P4 HT @ 3.8 (retired because of electricity usage) was a pretty decent cruncher
so its running two threads? That's good for about 700 points a day I would say. Good job bro and thanks :toast:
More like 400, 500 if you're lucky :(
I have a p4HT i think its running 3ghz it takes awhile on the HT thread(about 13hrs average) but the one that runs on the real core takes 5-9hrs atleast that is what i am seeing
When I ran my P4, WUs from the same project (ie 2 HCC WUs) took within 30 minutes of each other to complete, running under XP x86
Thanks CP:toast:

POS is right IDK but It think my HT core take over 19+ hrs, is that correct:shadedshu?
But the Core takes 6-7hrs.

Very well, at least under Ubuntu (X86 and X64), Debian (X64) and Fedora(X64)

Well there's instability somewhere... try clocking down a bit or adding more voltage.

[Velvet Wafer]

4 months do i chase this bastard error.:shadedshu i will buy a new am3 board+ ram that will show this bastard, that no error shall withstand me!

EDIT: whats with this foxconn here?
anyone made experiences with them?

funny, in the morning update, the QX returned more points than my i7. however i7 is at 80% and QX is at 100%. both at defaults.

[Flyordie]

Ok, I will be earning my WCG badge soon enough... ;-p Just restarted my PII rig... so it will add onto what my X2 rig downstairs does.

So one is running Ubuntu and the other rig has XP on it.

The XP rig just started crunching but its going to take 9hr :banghead:

Im waiting for the linux rig to finish up dating and see how she want
to do.

Edit: Linux box 8hrs

CP what's up bro! :toast: What do you have that QX @? Stock's 3ghz right?

[GREASEMONKEY]

Have to leave town for a couple days and no one to watch over my little garden.So i have decided to shut them down till i get back.:cry:
Luckily enough though i have 8 pages of pending results to keep numbers up for a little while.At least enough to bump me over the half million mark.:D
Happy crunchin all and i'll be back soon.:toast:

[Chicken Patty]

CP what's up bro! :toast: What do you have that QX @? Stock's 3ghz right?

yes sir. not a single rig in my house right now is overclocked. They are all at stock, even the i7. I only overclock the i7, but it's on stock cooler, I just undervolted it :)

[Snipermonkey2]

So my socket A rig with XP on it is taking so long to do a cycle i pulled it offline, I will be putting a linux install on it since my linux box is doing great with pretty much the same specs.

[[Ion]]

Absolute stability is better than the highest overclocks. That's what I tell myself about why I haven't OCed my rig (actual reason is it BSODs whenever I oc :( )

[Velvet Wafer]

dont talk of stability.... i miss it.

great board a overclocking beast and one of the more stable boards out there...

not sure about the ram but from what i have seen it is one of the better ones I would look into the Trident if its not much price difference

[Velvet Wafer]

http://www.mix-computer.de/html/product/detail.html?articleId=355220
cheaper. has it any features?:D

[p_o_s_pc]

http://www.mix-computer.de/html/product/detail.html?articleId=355220
cheaper. has it any features?:D

from what i have seen it overclocks nicely. maybe try looking for reviews on both of them

EDIT the rippjaw seems to overclock better so if OCing headroom is what you value more then price then get the rippjaw. If your looking for fair-good OCing get the trident

EDIT again Summary: No difference. Ripjaws have a lower profile heat spreader.

EDIT:more info Different IC chips, slightly different performance and overclocking capabilities. The Trident Series does spead emitted heat slightly better, but considering the low DDR3 voltage, memory temperature typically isn't an issue. The two memory packages you selected are fairly similar though because they are both very high performance.

Thank you
GSKILL SUPPORT
Ripjaws have a slightly newer type of IC, and are designed more towards the P55 chipset
So it looks like the ripjaws overclock alittle better but thats about all...
but then i found this so i'm confused

Trident Series also has new IC chips, they are both great for the P55 platforms.

Thank you

IMHO it will or atleast as close to perfect as possible

If my computers are even the slightest bit unstable, I go to great pains to ensure that stability is returned :rolleyes:

[p_o_s_pc]

its ironic you guys are talking about stability i just recently overclocked my CPU higher. I forgot to change the multy. to 10x so its at stock 11x so it is running alot faster then i have tested stable on stock voltage and have yet to return a error in 3days of crunching and not even one crash in games or anything

you even asked the g-skill suckers, so i dont have to do it:D
many thanks!
i believe i will buy this kit tomorrow;)
a friend of mine owes me 100euro for "natural stuff", so i could finance the hd5850 also.nice:D

If my rig crashes to often, i hit it on the top, i try to not let that happen :D

then i am screaming: "DU MISSGEBURT! HURENSOHN! WILLST DU MICH EIGENDLICH VERARSCHEN?"
not that kind of stuff you want to show you kids :P

it must be better. i cant suffer another row of failures. this time it must run perfect.
if i cant get the 4ghz stable,even with the monster rad i will surely flip out:D

Yea g-skill ram is not bad ram.. I've used them in builds for years. I'm using a set in my Q9550 rig now. After my dominator set crapped out on me.. hehehe

these fucking dominators. they only clock like mad, and time like shit. good for intel,bad for amd.
