Crunchers Helping Crunchers

[crazyeyesreaper]

not so much a buddy went to school with him and so far hes bought 2 rigs this year and has connection to help me make more money so considering we drove to bestbuy in a snow storm and he bought almost exactly $200 in stuff helped me out and i got a free meal its just a win win all around

he got 25ft ethernet cord wireless adaptors and a 20inch 1600x900 monitor ($99)

thats due to POS ability to clock real good
but the proc is shit (or the board is just a whore) , my e5200, which is truly the crappiest of its kind, did even 3.3 on 1.35.
its good fur crunching, but i would consider every C2D "bin-worth" which cant reach 3.5 with 1.3...

luckily the 240 kicks its nuts, and behaves far better. i really need a few of those... maybe i should buy me three, bin one, and sell the other 2 again

good luck on the 5000+ 45nm! a quad would slowly take you in my direction

thanks for the complement. my points yesterday was alittle over 4k so if it unlocks to a quad and i get the X2 4200@3.1ghz and the P4 661 running that would bring me to ~5kPPD i would think

EDIT:If i had a 25ft Ethernet cord i would have my rigs in my big closet, noise and heat would no longer be a problem

a school colleague,alright, sadly i know no one capable of buying his/herself a rig
or otherwise, this would be perfect, to make a little money,as you said

im at about 4k-6k atm ;-)

if my points steady out around 4k with what i am running right now by the time i upgrade and add the rigs it should be like old times between us

not so fast, if i can get my old e5200 and my biostar 790gx to run,soon

ok thats fair. If that happens i'm going to have to try and get a quad to replace the E1500 and get the Phenom 9500 X4 running again. that should do it then..hell I think i am going to try to get the phenom running atleast part time again this weekend

what was the problem with it? consistent crashes at about 24-48 hours runtime?

random BSOD and OS corruption errors on about 25% of the WUs. The cheap 300w PSU is out of it and is now running a 380w Antec Earthwatts. The ram passed memtest and the OS has a clean install. I think i am going to give it a go this weekend and see what happens.

my 500w barely manages the q9550 and the 8800gts. it wont get hot, but getting warm in a benchcase, should route one, to extreme stress, the PSU has to take. and the q9550 is heavily underclocked, and pulls lower watts than the PH1

PSU problem, one would believe instantly. try to install XP two times,so you have an xp dual boot, so you can always reuse working files from it, to copy/paste fix your other xp. this should speed things up, even with constant os corruptions

it is running onboard video so its not pulling alot of power. it hasn't had any problems for about a month now just for light use so crunching will be the real test

you dont know, how much it pulls from 5v and 3.3v ;-).... i bet that kills the PSU. how are your everest values during 100% load?

Tim,

back up on the list for RAM.

never looked If a 300w cheap PSU ran if for alittle over a year i'm sure a solid 380w will run it. BTW Its a Gateway (i hate gateway)

lets hope that, a quad not running, is a real pain in the ass

it is a pain in the ass they put out good points even for part time folding

your saving another dual core rig, when using the quad. surely, this will have its effects.

that post confused me bro

two dualcore rigs= 1 quadcore rig

it was meant very simple,nothing special about that

Oh i understand now. So if add a quad it would be like adding 2 duals and if i upgrade my dual to a quad it would be like adding another dual

exactly, thats what i meant... sorry for my bad english

i think its mostly because i am multitasking and buzzed on pain pills again. they are at there "peak" so i am

what pills do you receive? (did i asked that once?)
ah no problem, i will smoke something of this now:

Purple Blue, a real exotic. tastes a little like lavender and smells really badly like a cross of ganja and lavender, when beeing crushed

@velvet I am on oxys that stuff looks kinda good

 

[Velvet Wafer]

Oxycodone is very strong. an 80mg tab (the biggest) will probably kill a person without tolerance

how often do you have to take that, and how much do the doctors prescribe you?

Stuff is really nice. should be smuggled directly from the Dutch ;-)

I have a fairly high tolerance to anything like that.Dr gave me 40mg tabs. take 1 every 6-8hrs according to the dr. alot of time i take 1 1/2 every 5hrs
