All crunchers at home are down. Major storms came through so I unplugged them all. Hope to have atleast two back up today.

Just checked my results status... haven't had an error since the 5th of this month, since I just first started messing around with the new parts. I'll be keeping an eye on it every once in a while during the coming weeks...

My i7 is behaving erratically (random freezes, BSOD'd again), so BOINC is suspended for now, I'll run Memtest later and try returning it to stock-clock to see what happens. Obviously it doesn't do a lot of good when it locks up or reboots ever five minutes

its good to unplug them if they're not in a surge protector. we had a storm the other day early in the morning and a friends tv blew and caught on fire. So yea it can happen.

Yeah when we have advisory of bad storms I unplug them. Both are on surge protectors but I'm still paranoid.

The best way to protect your rigs is to unplug them. The second best way is to rent a whole house surge protector from the power company, which they attach to your meter. The third best way would be good surge protectors, and as much as I hate to say it, Monster Power supposedly puts out some nice ones that eat surges well (and I imagine there are plenty of other good brands out there) but you are taking a chance with anything plugged into the wall.
Do I unplug mine? No, simply because I'm not there much of the time. Plus, the office is enclosed in a steel building in an industrial park of other similar buildings, so there are plenty of other places for lightning to target.

Yeah I don't take chances. Surge protectors aren't 100% reliable, even good ones. But it is wayyyyyy better than plugging it straight to the outlet!

A basic 400w UPS uses about 10 watts for itself, so I'd say that they probably consume 10 watts for every battery installed in them (for the sake of recharging the batteries of course).

Got the new ram in today. Happy to finally have 3 1600 sticks in triple channel to properly feed my i7. I've noticed 4GB is too little to work with when gaming and crunching, so the additional 2GB may help there as well. Lots of things I'm happy about with this ram... the 1600 speed, the triple channel, the additional capacity, and that it runs at 1.5v. This may drop some temps down ever so slightly compared to when I was running my 1.65v memory... then again, there's the added stress of having a third stick, so it's probably negated. At least I'm well under the limit and not right there at it.

I've bumped the i7 up to 3.26GHz @ 1.2v, I'm hoping that it's stable like this. I guess I'll see. Shutting it down apparently caused 5 of the WUs it was working on to have a "Computation Error", so I lost nearly 20hrs of CPU time there
I guess I'd better not shut it down in the future  EDIT: OC appears (for now) to be stable, but for reasons that I don't understand, only half of my RAM is available (Windows reports 4GB present, but only 1.99GB available).

Also keep in mind that a surge protector only works for "surges." Which would obviously be an up spike in the current. Surge protectors DO NOT do any good what so ever on a lower voltage issue. For this one needs a good battery back up. And of course the cost on them is a ton. LOL

For now I had to bump my i7-950 back down to 3.4 GHz from 3.6 GHz. Temps were at 90ēc when I got home on the hottest core. It was lower at the moment, but 90ēc was the highest recorded while I was away. so I backed it down to 3.4 GHz at default voltage which is like 1.232v I think. Temps should be under 80ēc at the hottest I would say. I'll have to wait till tomorrow to find out. |
