haha oh god. I remember a little after that i had a 920 2 GX2s a 5200BE a 5000+ and an 8800GTS then i had dual xeon P4s and a P2 laptop and an opty 170.


after that i got 2 GTX260s and a bunch of socket A rigs. but the above was my first major push.

I have one of those boards (got it a few months ago from Brandonwh64), and it is still a beast even to this day. Mine runs a Phenom II X6 1045T @ 3.6GHz, 4GB OCZ DDR2-1066 Platinums and at one point (for the hell of it) I crammed a GTX 470, 465, 460 and 440 on it with a LEPA G900 and it did 45K while crunching on the CPU simultaneously. Since the system didn't scale well with all 4 GPUs, I run 2 GPUs in each rig maximum, which works a lot better for cooling anyway.

Had any problem with the Mobo burning up the 4-pin CPU or the 24pin ATX? I tried running 4x GTX460's on the K9A2, but it would crash constantly. Eventually went to i7-870's with 2x 460's per mobo.

Surprisingly, no. Nowadays, it just runs a GTX 550 Ti and the GT 440. The 4 cards on that board were a test for 2 weeks as they all ran quite hot.

On the other hand, the ASRock A770DE+ I sent through 8 months of hell last year was almost charred after I crunched on a 955BE @ 3.9GHz and an HD 5770 + 6670 folding with a 4 pin capable PSU. It was a stupid idea to do that to a $50 board, but I've got plenty of beefier boards that I can OC to my heart's content on.

I remember when back in the day it was mostly the folders that started to find out about the bad foxconn 1366 sockets because we were all running those rigs so hard some of us started popping CPUs.

my board wont boot

reseat everything

removes cpu

dafuq?

Damn, that's some serious socket burn. My ancient Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13GHz actually developed a dark blotch on a cluster of pads after running it at 2.66GHz (1333) but I am unsure if it was actually mild socket burn or if I accidentally touched that area and tarnished the pads.

I wonder how my X3210 @ 375MHz*8 and 1.4v will look after my ASUS P5WDH Deluxe 975X dies (hopefully not anytime soon, as that board may be old but it's still badass and beats all the crappy G41 boards). I don't think 775 had that problem as bad as the Foxconn LGA1366 sockets, did it?

ya only the 1366 foxconns thats why alot of sales were boosted imo for the EVGA and biostar boards because they used the lotes sockets and they didnt have the issue. iirc it was a problem with the way the pins were bent when the socket was placed or maybe some of the holes in that cluster were off, either way it caused the pins to arc and clockers obviously noticed it the most just imagine that many amps just floating about under your CPU those little gold pins never stood a chance.

also remember (i used to do network monitoring when i had 27 rigs crunching) that you may need to (share) the folder so it can be seen by the network.

i know i just got back but i used to be really good at this and a core player in F@H land go back like 500 pages and you see all sorts of work that I did and other members recommending me when they had issues.

Yup, it's shared. When I try to add the client it just sits on "Connecting". I'll fight with it again later.
I'll post what steps I'm taking when I get back to the room later

Does my EVGA 3X SLI have that Foxconn socket?

no its a lotes

make sure the port is correct check the host machine to see which one its using. then make sure the router is set to allow UDP/TCP on that port.

Wasn't it the 1156 boards whose Foxconn sockets were burning, not the 1366 socket?

I think it was the 1156 boards. I remember buying a P55 combo from Paulieg and confirming that it was a Lotes socket.

Yeah, I had a P55 setup too and my EVGA board was one with a Foxconn socket. I remember debating returning it or not- kept it and ran it pretty hard on WCG and F@H and it never gave me an issue. Never heard of widespread 1366 burning, only those as a result of suicide runs.

Looking at the pins in the photo, it looks as though that is a pic of a 1156 socket

Lotes refers to the company that manufactures the actual socket, not socket type like 1155, 1156, 2011, etc. Nearly every board's socket is made my either Foxconn or Lotes. If you look at the CPU retention bracket on a motherboard you can see the Lotes or Foxconn logo, sometimes its on the metal backplate of the socket as well.

Alright, so here's what I have:

The computer I'm trying to monitor from, my i7-2700k/GTX470 setup.


The computer I'm trying to monitor, my i7-860/2xGTX460 setup.

I believe I've done everything correctly, but it doesn't work. Ideas?

try typing the entire IP and negate the /24

It still just sits on "Connecting" on the client computer. I'm gonna try messing with the firewall.

EDIT: Firewall on both systems is disabled entirely, and it still doesn't work

[Solaris17]

is the IP your connecting from in the whitelist of the machine you are connecting to?

[thebluebumblebee]

Try HFM.NET!

Correct, what I had tried was to set the specific IP of the client computer to the sole whitelist on the server. Still no go.

Tried HFM.NET, couldn't get it to work either. I'll try again now that I've disabled the firewalls.


And to think that I used to be a Folding Editor at OCN

ok. so white list is go IPs are go router is all set and ports are correct. now the big question have you restarted the clients on both machines after making these changes? as in complete kill task and restart?

I haven't set anything on the router--but everything is on the same network. The computers see each other, I can ping by hostname and IP address and browse. I haven't restarted the clients--do I need to?

EDIT: Rebooted and everything works now

i always needed to. Sometimes they wouldnt pick up until the next WU started too but most of the time i got it doing client restarts. the settings only apply when the program is restarted IIRC kinda like a windows update the settings cant be used until they are reinitilized.

HFM is configured with all three GPUs, and I've even set it to create a website:

glad you got it going man
