I had some errors with OZ and FAH2, not MIP.

Edit: I was only running OZ, HST and FAH2 ATT.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure what's going on but it seems fairly minor for now and will keep an eye on it.

If it continues further, maybe I'll try switching up projects and see what comes of it.

I gave up running MIP ages ago, seems to run crazy slow on some hardware/os combinations, and gives me about half the points for the same amount of CPU time.

No errors or issues when running SCC or FAH2 though

I have MIP and SCC selected, but I'm having trouble keeping a steady stream of SCC coming in. May try to take of MIP and see where it takes me.

Edit: having switched to SCC and FAAH2, I received a lot more SCC, which is what I wanted. Hoping that these projects will go well for a while.

Since @xvi was a stoner last night, it got me thinking of him. He hasn't been around all that much recently... anyone talk to him lately?

For you Kyle!

blindfitter · Mar 19, 2018

This happened today Guys, so it looks like it could be sorted, @infrared also.

thebluebumblebee · Mar 19, 2018

What I have found is that the results on FreeDC are bouncing up and down, with around 20 people not being on there sometimes. I'm grabbing the pie results either in the morning or late afternoon, PDT. I have 5 of them lined up, BTW...

Boatvan · Mar 19, 2018

My stats seem to go in and out on FreeDC too.

EDIT: Whoa just got 330,000 points!

manofthem · Mar 19, 2018

Been noticing FreeDC is funky. Milestones have popped up and disappeared over the past week or so, and now today they've all popper back up.

Strange how it affects some and not others.

stevorob · Mar 19, 2018

Same as all you - been noticing my stats bouncing between 0 and their actual values for the past few weeks of data.

Time for me to ask for some more help with this board decision :oops:

I really like the AsRock X370 Taichi ($210) since it was reviewed very well and looks/sounds awesome, but it's a little above what I had wanted to spend.

I also like the AsRock X370 Killer SLI/ac ($140) since it seems to have everything I need for a great price.

Any one with experience with either board or an opinion on them? I know @jboydgolfer you had mentioned the Killer Sli though I think for intel, but did you have experience with it?

Thanks guys! :toast:

Also, it took a while but I got the 4790 back crunching again. It had been sitting a while in the corner disassembled, but now I built it into a cube basket that sits in the IKEA furniture . Had to update Windows since the rig hasn't run in many months, but that should be all taken care of now.

The killer boards are a step above the extreme series ,and better than good is gonna have to be at least good ,or better

.

Certainly not a component to scoff at

Having an issue with one of my Ubuntu installs... sometime yesterday the 3930k rig shut down, and everytime I reboot it it throws up an error when it tries to load the OS. I've seen several different errors so I'm honestly not sure what exactly the problem is.

Going to try to reinstall sometime later today and see if I can't get it back up and running... very strange as everything was just fine over the weekend.

Ran fine with Ubuntu 16.10 iirc, might be your overclock giving you some trouble?

That was one of the first things I did - reset everything in the BIOS back to default... still same issue. The different errors were very odd... some errors after looking them up seemed to indicate the HDD going bad, saw a kernel panic error a few times (but couldn't find a definitive reason to why)

Going to try reinstalling ubuntu 16.04.4 fresh from the website. It had 17.10 on it.

I can send you the drive I was using if you want to try that? Nothing special, just a WD laptop drive..

My numbers have been all over the place lately, my 14 core Xeon keeps losing it's internet connection. It has over 100 days of uptime with no problems so I don't know wtf it loosing connection now.

Is that on Ubuntu? I have two 6 core X5670 rigs that randomly look for network authentication every few days. I thought I had the fix but guess not.

If it turns out to be a bad drive (coincidentally, I also have a WD laptop drive in that rig) I may take you up on that offer. Going to spend some time messing with it later after work. I didn't get much time last night to troubleshoot, it was nearly midnight when I noticed the rig was powered down.

Edit: so tried to reinstall and kept getting errors on the installer, so I pulled the drive from the rig and hooked it up to my main - nothing worrying in the SMART data (warning for pending sector count, but everything else seemed normal). Went ahead and deleted the volume in windows' disk management, and hooked the drive back up. Installer opened up just fine, no more errors, and it is reinstalling 16.04.4 right now. Hopefully everything goes smoothly from here.

Ended up ordering the x370 Taichi board last night. Hoping to get everything in by Friday and maybe just maybe get it up and running this weekend.

Anyone getting excited for the new upcoming Ryzen CPUs?

I'll be checking out the 2700.

Very good call. That or the 2700x has my interest as well. Is there any word on if the current X370 chipset will support the 2xxx series, maybe with a bios update? Hope so

Running Linux Mint, but it seemed to be ok after rebooting.

Thinking seriously about going with a 2700X when they come out.

I'm taking a little break from crunching for now. I'll still be going strong with my main rig, but I've shut down my Xeons. Probably going to be selling off some stuff and I likely have something to donate next time we have a challenge.

Yep

stevorob · Mar 21, 2018

So things did not go smoothly - I guess there is an issue with the drive. New install took FOREVER.

Swapped drives out, everything appears to be working now. Did have to pull the drive from the FX rig for the time being, looks like I'll be looking for a replacement.
