just for crunching?

crunching and a upgrade from my main rig (getting time to replace the 4850e) no matter what i pick i am going to get a new board. I don't feel that this biostar board can hold up to a PII overclocked and crunching 24/7

come on dude, what happened? and i'm crunching handicapped. Hopefully this motivates you and you put 10 more rigs to crunch :roll:

I hope not!:D

I'll soon find out!:D

I couldn't find how to abort but somehow it started and finally finished. It's hard for me to believe it was running 30 hours. I'm going to try to find out how many points I got.

abort is right there to the left, it's in the screenshot :laugh:

anyhow, that's history!

You must be seeing things:eek:I'm glad it wasn't a big old snake:oNext time I'll put my glasses on:roll::cool:

Please tell me you see it now, under commands. :laugh:

Yes! Item 3 would be most applicable.:toast:

:laugh:, option three would be bit scary if executed in reality :eek:

Hi Guys!
I'm new as you can see...:) I guess I'm gonna give it a go with this crunching business and dedicate one of my rigs just for this purpose... I'll be honest, I haven't read one single post in this thread so please point me where to go so I can setup my rig and such...:toast:

PS
Chicken Patty, sorry dude my life has been keeping me very busy lately or more so. The 2 days turned out to be a month, lol, sorry. In any case I won't be able to start until I get my APC battery replacement which will be sometimes next week, so you know...

At least I got a Valid result and 99.1 credits for my 30 hours although WCG only recognized 5.29 hours of CPU time. They should have awarded me a bonus for patience.:)

lol thats strange.... at least we now now,that its better to abort such work iterations;)

It's not about that at all dude. I'm thinking bout the team :toast:

friendly crunching rivalry forces output increases,which is actually good in my opinion;)

it only can benefit our team ;-)

EDIT: youre 1 point in front of me ;-)

I would go with the 6300. While the AII 240 is probably just as good at the same clocks, it's fun to mess around with something different.

thats what i was thinking myself. Thanks for answering :toast:

i know, but i'm doing it just to raise output period :D

What sort of performance increase would I be looking at going from a Q9300 to a Phenom II X4 955 BE? Or would it be a better option to save the money and go i7? What is a fiar price for a 955BE anyway second hand?

I would say save for i7.The difference wouldn't be that great. I would say around $150us +/-$10-$20 would be a fair price IMHO.

BTW Velvet Wafer and chicken patty i am about knocking on your door in PPD.:D hope it keeps up and that everything goes as planed to add to the crunching power
