No worries. You might wanna post on the crunchers helping crunchers thread btw, maybe someone can give you a deal on a cooler so you can keep it 100% ;)

If you were on same continent I'd probably send you something.

I'm buying a Venomous-X from paulieg for a awesome price, the only problem is the mounting hardware all places want to charge a insane price for shipping it to canada

Sorry for the double post but..........I just couldn't stand it tonight and put the chip, ram, and a Xigmatek cooler on the board to give it a try and see if it posted.

IT DID!!!!!

Screwed around with it a little bit, and the 2.8 930 ran at 3.6 without any issues for well over an hour:rockout::rockout::rockout: Never ran above 45C in the BIOS! Frigging sweeeeeeeet.

So yea, now I can put that sucker together with the extra drive, case, and DVD burner that I am crunching with a dual core!!!!

With the i7's running the hyperthreading doesn't it run 8 processes for WCG? If so is there anything that has to be done special to accomplish this?

Oh man I am sooooooo excited to get this sucker up and running finally. Hell I have had the motherboard for about 3 months now.

If it is possible to run 8 processes and a person has to set it up properly please PM me with the instructions for doing this:respect::respect::respect:

Thanks in advance,
Dano

If you are referring to the i7 930 you mentioned earlier, yes it will crunch with 8 threads. You will not need to do anything unless the BIOS has been changed to disable HT.
Just look at Task Manager-Performance to see if all 8 threads are active.:)

If alrEasy running 8 threads run the CPU benchmarks in BOINC, that should do it.

Nice job! Hope it's stable. :toast:

Yup she is stable.....I noticed that when I push the NB to much she hangs though...so i dropped it back down to 2100Mhz and haven't had a problem since....still sitting a a nice 3.6 Ghz and memory at an even 1600mhz. I might try to tighten the timings a bit in the coming days.

Finally got all the crunchers over on the 64-bit client today, hoping it will give a 10% boost on my numbers.

Edit: will put together the 3960X rig this weekend adding 12 more threads

So my random collection of parts is being added to. Im getting an old AM2 rig from a friend, would it be worth crunching on and nothing else? I may have to add some ram, but i can throw a 4850 in it and do some OpenCL F@H on the card,

Also, im looking to get the 775 rig in working order over the next few months, and then add it to my farm. Just need to get a reliable PSU, HDD and a case.

I'm not really sure what they are, all I know is that it's 2 8 core's and 1 4 core. Hpcloud is running a beta test program for their servers, so I figured I'd give it a shot-it's free. I'm not sure how long it'll last though, but I'll update as I figure it out.

Ah yes, heard about that. Let us know how that goes. I'd been thinking if it would be cheaper to pay for cloud than running farm. Certainly resolves the heat and space problem.

That's why I figured I'd give it a shot. They set it up so if you don't terminate them when the testing is over, it's bills your credit card. They are supposed to update your account so you can see how much each server costs to run for the month, we'll see how it turns out. So far 2 rigs have each sent in 2 error'd tasks, not looking good so far though.

You can go here, they say they're accepting referral signs ups till the 1/28/12-which is tomorrow. I have 5 to give out so the first 5 pm's I get will get one. You can still try to sign up too without one, but you might not get in.

If you do get in, set it up just like it's done here in ubuntu. I had a hell of a time with it till I found that install. You can only ssh into the machines in a terminal for now.

I think you need invitation, if F150 can't help you can also try bogmali I think he's got invite too

More involved than I thought it would be. Guess I'll let you guys do the testing and learn from you if it's the way to go.

Damn! Ubuntu again, I haven't got WCG to run on my own rig in Ubuntu yet so I'm not sure I'll try that. I such a noob when it comes to Ubuntu/Linux in general, are there any benefits on running WCG in Ubuntu over Win at all?

Faster WU completion. So the run-time for projects is better than Windows. Though it produces slightly less points. Better support for massive core counts.
