Arjai · May 20, 2014

I now have the @theonedub rig, my friend purchased, running at 95% idle and 15% in use. So, 2 more cores Crunching!!

Always tricky running full out this late into the season due to heat but we do appreciate everyone that's dealing with it while the Challenge is on! :respect:

Only a few days left... hang in there if you can! :toast:

heh, I have similar levels of heat here due to quite a lot of equipment running (and not only computers mind You...)
And it might sounds silly, but I am sitting here in my underwear – too hot otherwise...

Same here, with underwear and socks on, haha. The AC is set at 82.

Arjai · May 20, 2014

Why is this all there is in the cconfig file? I wanted to up the <ncpus> on my buddies computer, new BOINC install, and could not find cconfig, until I ran @FordGT90Concept 's utility.

Now it's there but, this is it? Do I need to add it into the cconfig manually?

Yes. You have to add the ncpus tag manually. Example of my cc_config.xml on one of my FX-8320

Code:

<cc_config>
	<options>
		<report_results_immediately>1</report_results_immediately>
		<ncpus>12</ncpus>
	</options>
</cc_config>

Very cool!

FYI- I opened a challenge thread on the WCG website forum:
https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,36819

If you visit the site regularly please post in the thread from time to time- let's see if we can keep it on the first page of "recent threads" over there

Done!!!!!! :lovetpu:

Buddies Athlon 5000 X2 is now <ncpus>3</ncpus> :peace:

9 WU's at a time...WahLaah! :roll:

Little update on our buddy @fullinfusion: his cpu took a dump on him so that's why we haven't seen/heard much from him lately. I don't know if he posted that here yet, but I just wanted to share. Sucks, hardware failure really throws a wrench into the grind

That sucks!

I'll PM him later to see if he wants to borrow my i3 for awhile to get him going again... it isn't much but it's better than no rig

Look what my Tegra 4 based Nvidia Shield is getting, I started crunching with it four days ago:

Over 4K daily average! Not bad huh? Is it comparable to a... Pentium 3? What do you guys think?

Irony · May 20, 2014

Well shoot, my pentium dual core laptop averages like 4k per day. I should put my tf201 and nexus 4 online

Arjai · May 20, 2014

Do I have to wait a day, or, at least, until tonight, to see the new installed BOINC machine in my Devices?

It takes about 12 to 24 hours for my new devices to start showing up for some reason...

Great to see! :roll:

So is it worth to mess with ncpus or anything? I haven't had time to catch up on the news, so if is worth it, I'll give it a go.

I haven't seen any change yet- positive or negative. It's too early to tell imo.

Arjai · May 21, 2014

11 WU's still pending...

If they don't hit tonight, the 22nd is gonna be BIG!!
