That's what I like about TPU, people treat people how they expect people to treat them. You help me, I help you mentality. That's just awesome.

Big thanks from me to Kiex for well just being him.

Also pics of my new main rig.



Stats: Asus P8P67
Intel 2600k @ 4.6
4x4 vengeace lp
6990 HIS
OCZ Vertex 3 240GB
AX1200 Corsair
Corsair 650d case

Still need to move the card reader and blue ray from the 1055t but that can wait.

It's crunching 24/7 but if I do wan't to play a game I think its up to it.

Hey everybody, sorry I haven't been keeping up with posting stats. Simple as it is, I'm not always available to do it at 10pm EST especially with work lately. As we approach Christmas, we are in our busiest season and I take advantage of the overtime that is offered.

Also...my numbers my be a little low today as a 2 ton dump truck driver had a heart attack while driving yesterday and took out 2 utility poles one block away from where I live at 8am after I left for work. This knocked out power for 5 blocks including where I live and I didn't get back to restart my computer until 5pm.

No word on the condition of the driver yet.

Wow the driver of the rig was that big. (P.S Dump Trucks are 10 to 25 ton)

Nothing wrong about making some green. We as a team will just muddel through.

Good and welcome back. I would have been very frustrated (and cold) if it happened to me.

I had a generator running all week, so it wasn't to bad, but it was definitely frustrating!

It makes me grateful to live just a few miles from a major power plant (nat gas). Even during the hurricane I didn't have any power outages, just a dozen or so half second blips that happen when they they are ready to bring another branch of the system back online.

I'm currently having problems with one of my dedicated crunchers. It seems that it has been producing bad wu's but I've tested it with IBT on max and yes, it does get hot but the test runs to completion (5 iterations) with no problem. And IBT puts a lot more strain on the system than BOINC does.

The core temp goes up to about 45C and temp1 (which I think is the socket temp) goes to 65C - this is on a 1090T with a Hydro 70 cooler.

OK, just checked before posting and it looks like the servers have deigned to give me a full workload. Hopefully that means that my production will be back up in the 12k ppd range again. We'll see.

Currently I've got core/socket temps of 43/56C at a hair over 4ghz.

Those temps are fine. And if it's stable, can't think of why you are getting bad WU's. Maybe their server?

WELCOME BACK F150

Welcome back F150

Giving a heads-up to the team: going to be selling one of my 2600K and the UD4 motherboard. I'd probably bundle the motherboard for free to crunchers (B2 stepping so limited to 2 SATA ports). If interested, please let me know so we can sort out a nice deal before it goes up on my FS Thread

It's got Chicken Patty all over it

Killer deal! CP will use it for sure!

Everybody keep a look out on a 5770 very cheap (VERY CHEAP) for my cruncher. I am eyeing one right now but its not in my price range

I currently looking for a GFX card that would play BF3 OK when I have off time at work. Otherwise the machine crunches 24/7 at work.

I have a managed network switch that I will be selling soon to try to get some money for a decent video card.

I had a 8800Ultra lined up but its artifacting and such so all I have now is a 9400GT

I have a 5770 in my HTPC but I also have a 6850 that I've been meaning to put in. However it has been folding for several months and the board looks a little crispy. It works fine though. Make me an offer (including shipping will be about $10 for flat rate shipping) and help me get off my ass and install the 6850.
