Thanks Buck, but guess what? My internet went down again this morning. So I'm having another bad day...

Fold ON!

Yes, Stanford is improving the ATI core. X2 cards are already working both cores (only win XP), but still kind of unstable.

We suppose to get better WUs especially for the HD 4K series. At the moment this powerful card isn't folding using 100% of the potential it has.

------------------------------------

mlee49, Thanks for the upgrade! Fold ON!

Triplets have arrived!!!

Just got my 3rd Quad rig up and running. This room has been taken over by folding rigs! Fahmon shows me @ 75k+ PPD right before i got one of the crap 511 pt WU. I think this is gonna be it for a while. I will fold the overclocked crap out of these rigs in the mean time. Maybe early next year I'll shoot for 100K. Below is a pick. Don't mind the mess, I haven't straightened up my wiring yet. Keep folding Boys!!!!!

Gawd I'd kill to be able to do that! Won't have a rig I can dedicate to 24/7 folding until Jan or Feb which will be based on this athlon system. Looks like a pair of 8800gs cards might be the way to go for me in that one. I'll bet Buck gets us to #142 in a day or so.....

You do not want those. The 511 pt work units have very large protein clusters and will bog down you Nvidia GPU. Be happy with 480 pt and Fahcore 11 v1.15

If you overclock your shaders, you will see a nice PPD increase.

Blue means the client is working, but needs to be looked at(i.e. asynchronous clocks). Normally it's only a temporary conflict between rigs on a network. Last nite I had 2 rigs battling over the same IP address...WTF????

I'm sure you have already tried this one. Use the Console client for your particular OS. Have you uninstalled all previous versions of GPU2?

I'm thinking of racking up my computer account at my local dealer, he just got a bunch of asus 8800gs cards in. I could throw one in my athlon x2 server to fold 24/7. Thing is it's only a 3600+ brisby that barely hits 2.5ghz. Any point? I'm poor and can't really afford it, but if he gives me a good enough price....
Edit: and if it is, anyone interested in a lightly used evga 7950gt with zalman fatality cooler..? nah, I should hang it on the wall

Pick up the 8800GS. Your Athlon will have no problem feeding it with one core and you'll have a extra 5k PPD... Remember, you must separate the CPU/GPU clients on separate cores.

How do you assign cpu cores to cards, can it be done? No matter what I do, both of my cards use core1, never core0, is this an athlon x2 thing? Because if I could assign, I could let both cards run overnight on my main rig....

Try this, It's freeware and I use it on every rig.
