if i can't get the money in about a week for the i7 then i am going to grab 2 AII X4 620s..Its now what i want because i want only 1 rig again...

Don't forget about the 45nm Athlon x2 5000 unlock on the SB750 chipset(ACC of course). Save yourself $35.00 and end up with a Phenom X4! I've got my 2nd one arriving tomorrow to be unlocked.

My 785GTM-E45 that I have for sale has a SB710 which supports unlocking I believe and it uses DDR2. Food for thought

if your talking to me i'm good on that. I have a board that has SB750 and another that has SB710 :laugh:

but that really isn't the way i want to do

theonedub · Jan 11, 2010

Oh that was just another shameless plug

Figured someone would be enticed to buy an unlock capable board immediately after reading Buck's post :roll:

Alright ladies, I am back up to both rigs at full bore. QX and the PH II

Glad to hear it CP :toast:

Yeah bro. The QX is at default and the PH II is at 3.9 GHz :toast:

HammerON · Jan 11, 2010

I have been running my cruncher #3 rig at defaults (i7 920 & Rampage II Gene) for over a week due to stabilty issues. It ran at 3.8 GHz for about three weeks pumping out nice numbers but then started having problems. So I reset to defaults and have been averaging over the last nine days only 3,161 Boinc ppd instead of 4,476 Boinc ppd.

The only rig that is overclocked is the Phenom II because it's my daily rig. It's got a nice performance boost over stock. The difference in overclocking the AMD rig and the i7 is more noticeable in the AMD. I guess since the i7 has HT, not everything benefits from it so it's less noticeable, not sure if you get what I mean. But I really like this setup a lot.

I understand what you mean. It would be interesting if you turned of HT at stock and oc speeds on the 920 to see what results you would get. However I am not willing to try that at this point and am fact going to have to figure out my instability issue with the i7-mini so I can get it back to 3.8GHz

Yeah naw, not asking you to do that. Have you tested RAM, PSU?

Flak · Jan 11, 2010

Just to keep you guys posted, it seems whatever happened only took out the PSU's. I have my i7 rig up on a spare PSU now. The q9550 is down for the count until I get a PSU for it, but have other things on the burner first. After I'm 100% sure the i7 rig is stable again it will be back and crunching 100% well I'm not gaming on it.

The electricians that came out didn't find anything wrong, they are just writing it up as a fluke. At least they didn't charge me.... and right now I'm just thankful whatever it was didn't make it's way to the home theater.....

In a way that's good to hear, it could have been worse. Good luck man and keep us posted.

Mindweaver · Jan 11, 2010

The Q9550 has been running strong @ 3.6GHz with the new ram.. I'm taking it to 3.8GHz... Cross's fingers.. hehehe

Good luck dude :toast:

if you build another 620 and want a 790gx board i have an Asrock for sale that we should be able to make a deal on. Also i maybe willing to sell my patriot ram(DDR2 800 4-4-4-12 2x1gb)

theonedub · Jan 12, 2010

With an i7 is there something special I have to do for BOINC to rec the 4 additional cpus from HT? CPUz says 4 cores 8 thread buts BOINC still shows 4 after updating preferences to 100%, running benchmarks, etc.

Chicken Patty · Jan 12, 2010

It should download the extra work automatically. What's your work buffer set to?

theonedub · Jan 12, 2010

2 days. I have it set to 100% in preferences. Also have the profile on WCG.com updated as well and nothing. Win Taskmanager shows 8 threads, 4 are idle when WCG runs.

Chicken Patty · Jan 12, 2010

Weird!!! Try forcing 4 more to run...

theonedub · Jan 12, 2010

I must be missing something, how do I force it?
