Love you Arjai!

@Melvis -I think it helps if one is employed, I`m far from rich, but I agree the electricity charges are steep here. I don`t have an watt-meter since I have resumed crunching but I estimate It costs me around $25 a week...dunno maybe more or less... I figure thats a cheap hobby for me to...

Tip: By adding a `6` in the URL as below, we get much cleaner looking page from Free-Dc. http://stats6.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=user&proj=bwcg&name=797865 Found this while spying/lurking on another teams forum :D Works with firefox and chrome, I have not tried any other browsers.

There are 2 beta bios updates after the last stable vers. F13, and as far as I can discover through the myriad of x58 forums out there, these beta`s never included an micropdate / added compatability for X56xx`s. I really don`t want to flash a perfectly good board with beta bios`s - unless I...

Worst fears confirmed! I cant even install Win7 with my X5670 and GA-X58-UD4P mobo, system cannot restart during install. CPUID from bios is trying to tell me I have an i7 970x in the socket, and is also reporting a clock speed of 2.00ghz at default bios. Without touching any settings in the...

Thanks for chiming in Caps, thats a nice speed to be crunching at. I`ve never made it past 4.0 without errors appearing amongst my WU`s - I`ll be happy if can crunch at 3.8 on minimal voltage with the UD4P.

Others have reported that they cannot go past 150 base clock with the X56xx xeons and also cannot perform restarts. I cannot find out for myself until my new PSU and cooler arrive sometime this week. I have sunk a little bit of money into this little project, hence my uneasiness from what I`m...

Assistance Required Please! So I bought an unused X58-UD4P and an used X5670 from ebay for some crunching fun :kookoo: Before I bought the mobo I quickly researched if the X56xx xeons were OK with the board, which it is after updating the bios to the latest known - all very simple and obvious...

Hi fellas, just started crunching again. Apologies for my sudden departure, damn universe throwing up chaos my way.. xeon 1231v3 crunching for TPU again. I`d love to add some more cores, the hardware itch is back :)

Hi Team TPU, apologies for my absence, life caught up to me, as it does. Sold all my PC stuff, still have the E3123v3, just started crunching again now. Shit happens eh. Even sold my treasured gtx970 HOF. Such is Life :) But thats just material stuff, Lets Crunch. RIP DB

Dumped the Q9550 rig and now have a Phenom 1090T / AM3 mobo in its place, $100 well spent. ($70 US) Great budget 6 core cruncher, I`d grab another one if the power bill wasn`t already so high :)

Not familiar with this site , had to do some googling http://www.arngren.net/ a European Tech & Gadget site from 2004

Had a massive lightning storm at 2am last night. I was lying in bed telling myself not to be so damn lazy and go out to the garage and shut down my crunchers. Too late..a crack and a loud bang and the power went out. Thankfully they all booted up this morning with no probs. Downtime was only...
