2011 Chimp Challenge has started!!!

Nice numbers birdman and trust me when I say this. You have the worst -bigadv WU currently (P2684) and the fact that you're also feeding a GTX470 in the same rig. V7 client will not display the bonus points so you're seeing actual PPD minus the early completion bonus for your SMP.

I also have my old Q6600 rig with one GT 8800 (other GT 8800 also available but not installed) that folded all my points when I was folding some years ago. Would that rig still be worth setting up for folding?

Most definitely, Q6600 and 2 8800GT should net you an additional 10-12K PPD
 
Alright, folding rig is setup for now with the 8800GT, I'll crank the 5870 up tonight. That should be good for at least 7k PPD I would say. Wish I can help more, but I'm very limited now and I'm slowly getting back up to speed with my crunching/folding and with myself personally.

The rig ain't' folding yet, I just need to go to home depot and grab an extension so I can plug everything up. I'll do that tomorrow after work and get it setup and running. Doing what I can fellas!
 
Do you guys think this PPD is ok for my PC ?
VGA: HD4850
CPU: I5-750

Looks good. What are the clocks on the i5-750?

Here it's: Why ?

Only the ram timming is CL6 rather than CL7 as shown in CPU-z... and ops.... vga is hd4850
 
I'm in Both 6950's Folding away:D
 
I'll be switching over straight after the competition starts tonight. Where is the central stats page this year? Are the Canucks hosting it again?

That i5-750 has alot more headroom in it. I bet you could hit 10K on the CPU alone.

Well... but I would have to go with a higher clock, right ?
I'm using a DFI Lanparty p55-t36 and I guess 170mhz is the highest fsb it will reach, I tried to go futher, but it doesn't go over 170.....

With a multi of 20 then yes your OC hit a wall unless you could get a higher fsb out of that board.
 
Can I leave my PC folding with the chimp username already ? It 'll be 4AM here when the competition starts....
 
How much PPD would a GF8600 with a C2D E6300 put ?
I'm thinking about asking my mother to turn on my other pc on her house... but she'll complaing a lot.... LoL...

And a E7400 with HD2600 ? I might put some computers at work.... well... to work....
 
I just put both of my 5850's to folding for the team! :toast:
 
I'm pretty sure they only start counting points after a certain time, so it doesn't matter how early you start folding under ChimPowerUp.
 
Had fun at last year's competition.

Having some issues with my PSU currently so won't be able to join on may 5. The following day should be good. Will fold with my current rigs i7+6950 and HTPC is a opteron 170+4890.
 
Guys, does this look okay? Activity on the card has not gone over 46% yet....

I just switched... Do I need to stop and delete WU that it was processing ? Or just changing the nickname and password already gives points to chim ?

Just stopping and re-starting under ChimPowerUp will do the trick.
