Na, that can't be right bro. 6000 PPD? For a quad 6600? A lot of the new technology don't even get that man. I have a couple of newer quads that run 8 threads running and only getting about 7500 PPD.

oops checked wrong figures.

Damn, I was thinking I could set up a rig out the garage and use a mobile broadband connection.

At current rates of $50 for three 3 gigs...might be too expensive for me.

like I said, I've never really looked into it before, it may only be a couple MB, or even less. I honestly don't know how how much bandwidth it uses.

also, keep in mind the giveaways and contests that happen on this team. I'll say I personally have received well over $2k worth of hardware from team members and activities (including a full 3930k system, which I donated back to the team a year later and is currently being ran by Mad Shot). And just this morning I offered a 2500k to @cameronh779 for the cost of shipping.

I guess I could monitor the first 24 hours usage. May depend on reception in a metal garage with a USB dongle.

Got a few 775 set-ups doing nothing...they`ll end up back in the dumpster if I don`t do something soon :laugh:

Is their a Crunching for Noobs thread here at TPU ?

Yeah--look at the Essentials thread in my signature. A bit out of date but will still get you going

Silvertigo · Sep 18, 2015

Seems the bandwidth usage depends on how much one can crunch?
Seems quite minimal really

cameronh779 · Sep 18, 2015

Still crunching. The previous projects I pictured are at 25%.

Still though, at .3mb per WU for FAAH-Vina and OET that puts my data usage just for WCG at >2GB/day. Not a problem w/ unlimited but if you have to pay for it, then relevant.

I told him it was the foundation of a future upgrade. I also posted a thread about my hiatus and the fact that I needed some hands on with newer components. I have a plan for it very soon if I get it. But that is neither here nor there. Its also to be used for crunching specifically.

Well, I'm running >250 threads doing several thousand WUs/day. Particularly if you're running MCM on Windows, data usage will be far lower

No, I didn't want it. I'm sad that you've spent your money on 775/DDR2 when you could have spent it on 1155/DDR3.

I can just sell the 775 computer as a whole and get more than I paid. If I decide to do so.

Silvertigo · Sep 18, 2015

I guess I should just jump in the deep end and see how much data I`d chew through.

Also gives me a reason to build a mean lean LGA 775 crunching machine

Might consider LGA771. Same performance for cheaper. Also, the Xeons are a little more power efficient, iirc.

I have a E5450 running on a desktop LGA775 board using exactly that mod. Works rather well.

If you're not overclocking, might as well just go for a full LGA771 setup though. Should be able to find a dual 771 board on the cheap. Usually 8 cores, 8 threads for pocket change.

Silvertigo · Sep 19, 2015

Unfortunately their are no cheap 771`s on ebay here in Oz.

I have this board though collecting dust > http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/G41C-S/

There is a Xeon L5420 2.5 GHz for $2 on ebay here.

The mod adapters are cheap, though I would have to source it from the USA or UK.

I also have a GTX 260 that could add a little crunching power. I`m having fun already !

There are no gpu wu's so the the GTX would just sit idle.

OK so i`ve joined the TPU team and I`m crunching away on my old Q9550

Its all a bit bewildering at the moment, and I can`t find the advanced view ?

Welcome aboard to you and to @cameronh779 !!! :toast:

Thanks to all of the Team members who jumped in and lent a hand here also- y'all are the best! :respect:

Hoping that my current workload will be backing off over the next couple of weeks so I can be on here more often for this type of stuff...
