That rig will make a nice cruncher/folder :D

The 7850's should do at least 30-40k ppd each on the new F@H core17 jobs (excellent Radeon 7 series support this time)

EDIT- @brandon- what are the specs on the cruncher that's dying off???


I have been thinking of doing some folding. How hard is folding on the gpu's compared to crunching on them?

MSI 785GTM-E45
AMD Phenom II 720BE unlocked to x4
2x2GB DDR2-800Mhz Gskill ram

I know it is not the CPU cause it was doing the same thing with a 1055T. Also it cannot be the cpu cooling due to it being under water. The board has been a pain since I got it. I have RMAed 3 times before due to it failing.

My 7870 and the 7770's don't go past 50-55C and the 7770's stay in the mid 40's most of the time. Any Radeon 7 series cards should be fine. :cool:

Now the GTX 580's :eek: you can make popcorn in the exhaust from them!!! :laugh:


@ Brandon- sent you a PM on an old MSI 790GX board that may help (actually the 720BE's original home)

Indeed! I only run it on some of my systems because the heat/power usage is higher and checkpointing works badly, but it's one of my favorite projects :)

If anyone needs a cheap case for a cruncher, NewEgg has a Shell Shocker for one later today that's $10 after rebate.

My 7870 and the 7770's don't go past 50-55C and the 7770's stay in the mid 40's most of the time. Any Radeon 7 series cards should be fine.

what about 65-69 C for both my 7870 and 7770? is that cause for worry yet? mind you it is pretty hot here in Ontario atm, cards dont usually go past 62C.

Same for my i5's, they crunch around 65-68C and the 2400 idles at 42 whereas the 3570K idles at 36-38C

Well, the motherboard in my main system died sometime Monday night. Just stopped posting altogether. Tried every trick I know and it just wouldn't post. Sending it out for RMA this week.

For me, a case is a case when it comes to a cruncher. If I can put one together for less, it means more money for other rigs/parts. One of mine is in a case that was $30 on Amazon, and my boss gave us $15 gift cards for Christmas.

World Community Grid Post - HPF2 Update, June 2013

Dear World Community Grid Volunteers,

As we stated in our last update, we are bringing the grid-phase of the HPF project to an end. The "post-grid" phase however will continue on in the Bonneau Lab for some time where we will continue to analyze the structures and dive deeper into the mysteries of biology.

We first want to thank the dedicated IBM staff who has made this project possible. I do not feel they have been acknowledged enough over the 9+ years of this project for all the hard work they have put in. They provided a fantastic environment in which we could focus on the science and the volunteers could focus on the computation. It is rare these days for a company to have such a long-term view on basic research and it has been an awesome project to be a part of. Thanks IBM and good luck to many future successful World Community Grid projects.

We of course also want to thank the volunteers and acknowledge your commitment to the project and dedication to basic scientific research. With your help we now better understand the set of RNA binding proteins linked to childhood obesity and AIDS progression. [1] With your help we now better understand how bacteria in the Bacillus genus including the causative agent of anthrax and several food-borne illnesses form protective coats that are resistant to heat, radiation and chemical onslaught. [2] And with your help we have provided new potential therapeutic targets for Plasmodium vivax, a causative agent of malaria. [3]

So we thank you, the volunteers of the Human Proteome Folding Project, for giving us the resources to do fundamental research into humans and our current global challenges. You have given us over 123,000 years of computation, a truly extraordinary accomplishment in itself. More importantly is what that computation was used for: better understanding the molecules that make up our bodies, our food, our diseases and our world. We also thank you for being curious, creative and innovative because without that, humans will never address the problems we face today.

Sincerely,

Bonneau Lab

I like puppy linux and its variants. I just learned the other day that there was a version that uses ubuntues package system so if it works on ubuntu it should work on precise puppy. I am going to attempt to install boinc, that is if I can get it working with my c2d machine. I don't know why but it fights me with linux.

Yes and no. For me it's important that it support a 120mm tower-style CPU cooler, but pretty much everything else is negotiable :)

I'm assembling my 2600k in an old Cooler Master Centurion and installing Windows tonight. Tomorrow I will overclock and run LinX to verify that all is stable, and then hopefully install Linux Mint and BOINC Friday after work :toast:

There are some decent horizontal coolers out there. I picked up a Silverstone 120mm deal from sneekypeet that keeps one of my rigs cool enough.

A decent tower is easier to find, and cheaper, than a decent horizontal cooler. A Source 210 is about the minimum for me as far as case width (barely fits, a Xig Gaia/CM 212)

I've gotten some really good deals from sneeky on the Fractal Define cases I have and always pick up a Source 210 when they go on sale- would pick NZXT Source 210's or Fractal Define's (Mini, R4, and XL's) first if I can :)

I've been getting some voltage spikes lately and thus the regulator cuts off the power turning my entire farm off. Yesterday it was off for who knows how long.

Don't know what is causing it ATM. :confused:

Alright, so my 2600k setup has been assembled and seems stable at 4.4GHz. The pump makes a horrible grinding noise when the system is upright, so I'm trying to figure out how to avoid that. I'm afraid a RMA will be required.

In the mean time, I will probably use the Gaia, but the CPU was running much hotter than I was comfortable with (at least when OCed).

I sure hope WCG sees some new projects soon. Its so odd with only 3 or so active projects compared to how it was 2-3years ago.

In other news, I am finally sending my H100 off to RMA. Pump noise just like my last 2 H60s had, but Corsair did mention that the issues was fixed in a product revision, so the replacement should be perfect.
