TPU's F@H Team

Steps do not equal points, just a way to keep track on how much of the WU is completed.

Password is not required, unless you are doing bigadv units (if its the rig in your specs thats not possible).

Thanks for joining the team

Yep thar she blows heh.. if you listen carefully, my rig humms "nnnoooob" ..
Just remembered I up'ed my Vcore volts by .0125 !
And I chose normal units. With IE and folding, Im only using 850mb of ram. Are the bigadv units, monster ?
Peace

@TheBlueBumbleBee I have systray-632.msi . Ran it for a test, then read on a diff thread that the console was preferred. The gpu barely got warm and maxed out at 50C so no worries about melting stuff hehe . Im sure my sys will handle both the cpu and gpu. Cpu/Vcore temps are waay low aswell.

I have the Nvidia control panel settings maxed.. should I switch to defaults?

Cheers !

bigadv's requires 8 cores (or a decently OCed i7 w/ HT) and about 6 to 8gb(preferred) RAM.

Make sure that you use the SMP client (console) with the -smp flag and a passkey.....otherwise you'll get very bad PPD.

2GB will actually run it fine with XP

I say unlock the 550 to quad if you have an aftermarket cooler. I have one that pulls 7100ppd @ 3.6Ghz with SMP2.

That's about what my X4 955 did @ 3,5ghz w/ SMP2. 6.5-7k on most WUs, ~5k on the 670Xs

I tried then tried somemore .. nothing seems to work ! I can see 4 cores when I toggle ACC/bios. Then if I set unleash mode to manual?.. it shows I have 6 !
Made a short vid on it hehe..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jm7eifYOxtQ

When I leave unleash mode at auto/default and enable ACC, the system wont post/boot. I have to reset the bios/cmos, in order to boot. Same if I try pressing 4 during the bios logo. IF I set unleash mode to manual, the system boots but gives a "unleash mode fail" error.
Currently using Bios Version 2003 aand.. just noticed theres an update

Peace and I dont know how to use MULTI QUOTE aaaarrrraaaaahhhhhh!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Big thanks to all for your most welcomed support !

Had both the cpu and gpu running over night with no apparent problems. Gpu side is at 6600/10000 and cpu is at 85% complete. I paused then resumed the gpu fold, just b/c I like looking at temperature curves ! heh
When I display the gpu window, it says "core not being used"
Is there any particular time thats best for shutting either one down ? Can you minimize work lost ?
And will do ! about the add to the cmd line.

p.s. Its funny for me, to see my baby CHUG.. hack.. lolz

Close that viewer, it slows things down. Instead use HFM.NET, it tells you much more info, and isn't slow. It doesn't look like you're running the SMP client properly, it requires a shortcut with the -smp flag

Ill look up HFM.NET, and Im waiting for it to finish so I can add the flag... 99% lol...
My stats page shows I have only one client.. its prob related

Edit.. now this when I add -smp. RESOLVED !

HFM.COM
Make sure you read through and understand what is involved to get SMP working. Download client here. Make sure to get a passkey.

 

[BUCK NASTY]

You can't run the SMP client with the cpu you have in your specs.. It has to be a 8 logical core cpu like an i7 with HT turned on..
Edit never mind (spoke to soon, Sorry Buck.....

LOL, Dual core can run smp, but there won't be much in the way of early return bonus.

Sweet its goin ! Just hope I can meet the deadline hehe..
Made it Dev 2.. assuming the gpu client is Dev 1..

Machine id's for GPU's start at 2. 1 is normally for the CPU. It's not according to which one gets started first.

oops.. set the cpu to 2.. gpu is set to 1.. change back?

 

[thebluebumblebee]

No, it doesn't matter what their assigned numbers are as long as they have unique numbers between 1 and 16. What I meant above is that when you install the clients, the GPU client defaults to 2 and the CPU clients default to 1.

I had a GTX 465 error out 5 times and take a 24 hour hiatus last night. I reset the card to stock and restarted the client and so far no problems. Hopefully I caught this problem not long after it happened.

A P4HT @ 3ghz+ can do a SMP WU and return it by the preferred deadline, assuming it's not being used for other stuff. My laptop (2.4ghz C2D) can do most SMP WUs in under 1/3 of the preferred deadline

What kinda PPD with the GTX 465 and what clocks?

PS. Bought another GTX 460 today. Hope to have another 2 late next week for a total of 4.

 

[sneekypeet]

Is everyone on the GPU3 clients getting new 925 and 912 point WUs? Seems they have raised my PPD about 1000 PPD per card.

Yes!

its all I have been getting all day, AthlonX2 brought it to my attention, BAM there they were

Same here I look at it like they are making up for the 6XX pt WU's that we had for several days.

2GB for bigadv WUs? Are you sure that's right?

no, he's referring to SMP2.
