holy crap, you are skinny heh?

[Velvet Wafer]

im only a brain on muscles and bones. like a softie version of bruce lee

the point is: i cant be much heavier... more than 70 are not achievable, even when living from burgers and coke.^^ no matter how much i eat.

5.11ft 130lbs 5% body fat I workout alot.(about to push even harder for sports) I would like to know how your taller and weigh about the same and about the same body fat... Do you lift weights alot?

[Velvet Wafer]

no, i dont^^ i only work at a railroad-restauration... we work with nearly only heavy duty, but it isnt a big training. i dont do sports, and smoke a lot of pot. I dont know,
but i always accused my bones of beeing extremely hard,while beeing much lighter, and slimmer than normal bones. i never broke more than a toe. not even my finger. i never was in hospital. but my forearms thickness is only 3/4 of the lenght of a lighter^^

(i drink body building supplies sometimes, without doing sports. it helped me to gain 6 lbs :-D)

edit: i do improved martial arts for fun,on my friends.im very stretchy and able able to do the legendary one footed raise, and im 3/4 the height of professionals already;-)

EDIT: Pospc, im a mutant. i bet you will have a hard time to achieve the same weight/height ratio without you feeling really,really sick and tired^^

I train alot most of the time i haven't for about the last 2 weeks because of a shoulder injury
but i am told i can start again next week I used to smoke alot of pot also but have stopped that.I look really small/skinny but i am one of those guys that look like nothing but pack a hell of a punch (and can take a punch)


anyways back on topic I bought the Asus board and x2 4200+ will have it up and going in a week or 2

[hat]

So pos... are you still 7000 points ahead of me? I flipped the switch to ON for my 2nd core ever since I built my 2nd computer and moved my Quake server over to it.
I also got my vcard working right with some nice clocks not as fast as yours but I didn't vmod

Take a look for yourself I am also going to have ANOTHER X2 joining the force in a week or 2 plan to run it 3ghz also like all the others

[hat]

Heh, a second x2 would put some distance between us... I'll just have to overclock to 6GHz

it would be the 2nd 24/7 X2 I already have a part time X2@3ghz

Well guys, hopefully the few torturing days i've had with PC problems are over. Tomorrow my output should return to normal if all goes well.

Here is a link to what was going on, also a few pics of the new home for my E7200 rig (new case)

I know that feeling... everythings alright,youre no noob, your rigs dont crash love it!

i talked another friend with an x2 and forced another with a p4 laptop, to crunch... makes a total of
1 organised rig, quadcore,24/7
4 unorganised rigs, random run time, a core duo, an X2,an xp3000+ and a p4 2.66ghz
3-4 planned rigs, 2 are sure. at least dualcore.

i need more crunching dedication among my friends... lets see what i can do...

[p_o_s_pc]

my rigs have been damn stable so far. testing them with Linpack seems to be doing great for them. I can't wait till i get my other x2 up and overclocked so i can crunch on it

[Chicken Patty]

thats great velvet, thats some crunching power already


My rigs are tested with 20 Passes of LinX, takes about 25 minutes. My E7200 rig has been crunching like that since I got it up at that standard, and so far my i7 rig. Looks like it don't fail

I test my rigs with atleast 2hrs of OCCT linpack and that hasn't failed me yet.going to do that when i get my other rig up also

i used to just use WCG as my stresstest, but I wanted quick stability so I just run LinX, it's great. Heats up my CPU more than anything else.

exact configuration that i use... 50 iterations linX, 20 minutes.... wcg for reasonable long time testing. if it even can pass 25 iterations, it should pass nearly every time.

yeah, LinX stresses it to the point WCG or anything else won't. So I use 20 passes, but I increase the problem size and memory usage, so it takes about 25 minutes. I use at least half of my RAM available.

[Velvet Wafer]

i use 768, it doesnt really differ if memory is at 70% load or at 90.... mem is never the first to fail me^^ mosfets are my problem i think... after ripping of the ramsinks, and placing an old ravaged mosfet cooler from an asus board on it (sticked it together with a thermalpad drowned in mx2 ;-),fixed it with the 12v cable powering the board... decreased my crash rate by 50%. i only crash 1-2 times a day now...

tomorrow i will take a look at several older procs reaching from p4 to x2, lets see if i can get a deal ;-)
