So Santa has been nice to us this year - I expect we hit 20 M/day in a few days once the new GPUs are tuned in. I still have to figure out why my two 7770s performed better doing 2x4 GPU units @ 925 MHz in one i7 970 rig than running 1050 GHz in an other i7 970 rig (still 2x4, about same clock, same amount of RAM) but with 4 CPUs WU running at the same time. ?? No errors, number of pending validation about the same.

Hey guys, I was just finishing up a giveaway that Mindweaver and I threw together, along with help from others, and I stumbled upon extra Steam codes: Bioshock and Bioshock 2, as well as a few for Metro 2033. If anyone on the team wants one of the codes, let me know and they're yours! Thanks guys

I'm putting quite a few combos up for sale if anyone is interested in some of my old rigs. New stuff is still going up.

One down (Cezch National Team) and 17 to go. The next team (BOINC@Taiwan) is only 18 days away but from there on we need to tweak our current hardware since Santa is no longer in town. Santas evil twin just sent me a $1300 utility bill for the past 3 months so I doubt there is room for any upgrades in the near future.

I've now purchased the CPUs/motherboard/RAM/HSFs for a dual Xeon E5420 system (2.5GHz, quad-core, 12mb L2 cache) w/ 8GB of RAM. I'd imagine it should get ~6k PPD running Linux--and for $75 it was too good to pass up. I'm planning on using a 350w Antec PSU, a 150GB WD Raptor (have to wait for it to come back from RMA) and then hopefully a HD7850 in a couple weeks
Does anyone know what's happened to HammerON? I saw that his output has plummeted

The wife and I are in Cancun for our honeymoon (and a break from the cold
): I left both rigs running and saw my numbers declining starting the 23rd. Have no idea what is going on and am not going to worry about it until I get back home on Jan. 1st or 2nd. Curious on what is going on as a neighbor of mine checked and said the rigs were running and the modem and router seemed to be fine. But I didn't want to bother him any further. Oh well. I will be back soon Quote:

Reassembled all but one of the rigs I put up for sale, as they may take a while to sell (if they do) and I shouldn't have the slightest bit of impatience about it. Perhaps I'll have some more income soon for another 3770K rig, but I don't want to leave myself broke since college starts back up in a week and I at least want to maintain some spending money.

Does anyone know if you can get boinc running on windows home server 2011? I want to stick my Radeon 6950 into my file server since my dad's using a computer with a 6950 to check his email...

EDIT: No comment about the GPU application, but I imagine that should also work too. Folding@home does.

Hey guys and gals.. It's been a f'd up morning.. I woke up to a flat tire on my truck, and then found my 1055t w/ the new MSI R7770 shut down.. I've been finding this rig shut down every morning.. After inspection I found a burnt spot on the board under the bottom PCI slot between the audio header, and usb headers....
 I'll have to wait till next week before I can order a new board.. I've been scoping out the 990FX boards.. :I want to play with one.. I found a MSI one with 8gb of ram for $119. The ram goes for $39.99. What's odd about this board is It will run just fine, but if I let the screen go to sleep then all hell brakes loose.. I have nothing else set to go to sleep. EDIT: Oh and the kicker is I slipped on my back steps and twisted my Knee that I had an ACL replacement done in '09.. Now it has fluid on it and I walk like I'm a crip... Ahh life.. hehehe if it was easy then everybody would do it.. lol

You know, I've thought about it several times since I started crunching for WCG 2 years ago, but are there commercially available WCG Bumper Stickers? Anyone know if maybe a forumite somewhere might've made their own design or worked with a printing company to make some? I'm not really the "bumper-sticker type", but I'd make an exception for a worthy cause. I was thinking something like, "Your Computer is Bored; Let it Volunteer." and then the web address. Might catch a few eyes, and realistically, in the world of Ultrabooks and modern PCs (thinking of all those Phenom/Athlon X3 and X4s, and massively underutilized i3, i5, i7s just sitting in towers that are only used for Facebook), people could contribute meaningfully without affecting their user experience significantly on their device. If I remember correctly, WCG's default settings are pretty non-intrusive, which is nice.

My caffeine levels are a lot better than they were this morning.. lol So, with the screen not going to sleep it hasn't cut off. And my tire doesn't have a puncture, but it does have a bend on the inside of the rim.. Aww got to love low profile tires.. I have a Chevy Colorado LS with factory 17" low profile tires.. Soooo, I was sitting there trying to think if I drove off the road any or hit a bump in the road.. and it hit me.. I let my sister drive my truck over the weekend to get my nephew's go-cart.. I did remind her that it's not a U-Haul, and the only hauling it really done was hauling ass... My ass to work.. lol So, now my brother-in-law(he's a mechanic) is looking for a used factory rim to replace it. Oh well life goes on.. lol One less computer part...
