Awesome, let us know if you need any help!

What are the specs of the laptop?

Welcome to the team, I hope you enjoy it! We're a lot of fun

Welcome aboard, thank you for joining. The essentials thread has all you need, if you have any issues please feel free to PM me or ask any of the boys/gal. We would be more than willing to help you!

ERazer · Oct 19, 2010, 02:55 PM

Welcome bud!!! and every little bit helps

f22a4bandit · Oct 19, 2010, 05:43 PM

Ask and you shall receive. Here's a screenshot of my laptop specs:

Edit: It's running 1GB of RAM and has the awesome ATi 9000igp!

Anyway, thanks for the links and comments! The auto-report config file is dope!

Chicken Patty · Oct 19, 2010, 06:49 PM

I'm probably going to swap coolers in my rig to see if I an overclock the X6 some. Time to push it!

theonedub · Oct 19, 2010, 07:47 PM

Hmm, whats up with the badges? Seems like they all disappeared then reappeared, but mine didnt

Chicken Patty · Oct 19, 2010, 07:55 PM

I'm not sure either.

I passed 3k WUs in C4CW with the last update

http://img.techpowerup.org/101018/c4cw3k.png

I run the i7 24/7 and hardly use it. The p4ht runs 24/7 and is rare it gets used same for the other p4. Also the phenom 9100e runs 24/7 and sees little use and i also have the 9500 turning in results every so often

That's sure nicer than the dedicated laptop I have crunching (PentM 1.4ghz)

What do you use daily?

Never fear, I have more coming

theonedub · Oct 19, 2010, 09:52 PM

I got in contact with W1z and he changed the req (I see you already found your way to the thread).

[Ion] · Oct 19, 2010, 09:56 PM

That I did....was it really at 100k in 28 days? Cause that's a lot!

theonedub · Oct 19, 2010, 09:57 PM

Yes, it was, and yes it is

Better now, but still being fine tuned.

[Ion] · Oct 19, 2010, 10:00 PM

Definitely better now, I'd say that's a reasonable figure, it's about what my laptop can do PPD-wise when lightly used

f22a4bandit · Oct 19, 2010, 10:01 PM

Yeah...there'd be no way I could crunch 100k in 28 running days with my rig and lappy

I can't wait to have some sort of job to start building another rig. Once I do, I'm going to turn "The Spot" into a dedicated cruncher.

theonedub · Oct 19, 2010, 10:04 PM

Don't get me wrong though, I like a little exclusivity to the badge, but 100k/28days excluded a lot of people who are really dedicated to the team. I think 75k/28days would be great.

That would be cool

It's hard to beat a PhII X6 1055T or an i7 860 in terms of PPD/$

I still think that 75k/28days is too much, because that rules out members just folding on a C2Q or PhII X4 or even an X6 or i7 only part of the time. Not everyone has an i7 that they can leave going 24/7

Chicken Patty · Oct 19, 2010, 10:07 PM

yeah 100k was brutal

Thanks onedub

KieX · Oct 19, 2010, 10:10 PM

50K a month like with the TPU WCG Contest is something most can do on their own if they dedicate themselves to it.. took ages to decide that number lol

Exclusivity is nice because it makes some people push their systems. I count myself among those that want to make a difference, badge or no badge. Recognition is definitely nice though

Phxprovost · Oct 19, 2010, 10:15 PM

alright i must be doing something wrong, i have 2 940's *one at stock 3.0 and one at 3.6* and an atom 330 system running 24/7 and im barely scratching 3kppd more like 2.7, am i doing something wrong?

Are they all crunching 24/7 and 100% CPU load? Cause you should be around ~4-4.3k w/ that

Are they set to 100%?

KieX · Oct 19, 2010, 10:30 PM

Just, to check, are they all set to use 100% CPU and have the "while processor usage is less than" percentage set to 0?

EDIT: lol didn't see the updates from the two above. but definitely look at the usage thing because I was loosing 1K PPD on an i7 to that setting
