I'm in need of a mobo/ram/CPU combo if anyone has one sitting around.

I got a HDD, PSU, Case and video card already.

Is there a certain spec you want to be at or faster?

I guess I can call this new cruncher dead

Was goofing off in ubuntu when I inputted a command in terminal and as soon as I did the monitor shut off and had to hard reset, Once I tried to reboot its no post. Tried 4 different ram sticks/slots unplugged everything no go.

well that was a waste of time

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jun 26, 2012

hmm what was the command? Kill yourself?

I felt the same way as you when I put together UltimateVortex. But then I woke up on saturday morning and realized i had put my 1055T in the wrong way. Lucky me I didn't fry anything.

Have Ubuntu loaded as a VM on the X6 with 2 cores and 4 GB RAM. Man this is cool. I've messed around with EXSi and CentOS before, but never got around to tinkering with Ubuntu. I have a feeling this is going to be my project for the week.

Maybe this next cruncher I'm building.... I'll use Ubuntu instead.

ThE_MaD_ShOt said:

Looking for a Althon X2 or C2D. I'd like a mobo that can use DDR3.

I'd really like an i3 or i5 though.

brandonwh64 · Jun 26, 2012

tried everything down to re seating the CPU still no boot. I am going to set the motherboard on fire. This is the third time it needed to be RMAed

Time to change MoBo Manufacturer.

popswala · Jun 26, 2012

That sucks. What board was it?

ChaoticAtmosphere · Jun 26, 2012

Cruncher #1

Cruncher #1 and #2

I'm excited. I was planning on an ITX 2600k or similar, but for $300 less it's too good a deal to pass up. For that price I can add a FX-8120 or something...not a hard choice

Yes, the Atom is brutally slow....but it's on, so it might as well be crunching

Still impressive

yeah I wouldn't pass up on that neither.

MSI G41 775 board. It has been RMAed twice and now its dead AGAIN. I think I will trash it.

popswala · Jun 26, 2012

I'm a fan of msi. I do still have my doubts about getting a dud but thats with every board. Sry to hear bout you luck with them. after 2 times I'd call it quits on it also. Time to make the switch.

Radical_Edward · Jun 26, 2012

I haven't had any problems with MSIs newer boards. I may have just been lucky though.

brandonwh64 · Jun 26, 2012

I yanked the 775 quad out and installed my 955BE setup so now ALL crunchers are back!

*besides the shit hole MSI board*

Jstn7477 · Jun 26, 2012

I hear ya, any of the remaining 775/AM2/AM2+ boards are usually junk. My ASRock G41M-S3 works alright but like my ASRock Bulldozer setup, the vdroop is ridiculous.

Chicken Patty · Jun 26, 2012

I as well has had good luck with MSI boards on various builds I've done. What my buddy had horrible luck with was a Asrock Socket AM3+ board, think the 990X. He need up trashing it or selling it after a RMA. Not sure but it just wouldn't work for him.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jun 26, 2012

I have had a really stupid problem with Msi boards here lately.

@Brandon can you rma it one time then sell it off? Atleast you will get some money out of it for your trouble. But of course make sure it works fully when you get it back. Also what command did you run in terminal?

@Radical Edward: Isn't Ubuntu cool man. I really like it. I have 1 Cruncher running it and another on the way when my lowpro vid card gets here.

Yeah, I'll have to play with it more when I get home tonight. Got side tracked last night after playing with it for a while. :laugh:

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jun 26, 2012

Yeah, also check out the repository, lots of neat software to play with.

The Celeron Dual Core is being decommissioned tonight; I've found a buyer on Craigslist :/
At least on the upside I'll be building a few more dual cores in a week or two that I'll then crunch on until they're sold.
