Have completely lost my way with crunching and folding.

I have a rampage 4 and i7 3820 which will be clocked to 4.0 with 2 x evga gtx 570 and hopefully more if want add bears fruit.
Want to turn that over to folding, so whats the current thinking and app in use is it still an all in one run select cpu/gpu along with folding id?

Have a rampage 3 with an i7 930 at 4.0 with 2 x Titans want to use that for crunching seti. Have been enjoying bashing a few games with them and the upcoming Bioshock Infinite will be played to death.
I was kindly pointed to the new optimised app by Mr Loudbob along with detailed instructions on installing them. I tried multiple times but somehow kept getting it wrong in the end I threw a fit and stopped trying :(

If anyone is planning on getting/utilising Titans in Seti with the new optimised app would be greatfull for some help or if your in the process of going Titan and waiting for delivery would you mind if I tagged along?

I have an electric key and its fully loaded not worried so much about power use but pointers as to the most effective use of the above hardware would be much appreciated.

There I did it, posted a normal request in a regular thread without going senile or off on a wobbly with my lack of understanding and enthusiasm getting in the way ...... so as and when anyone has any helpful points I would be greatfull.

Faster .... faster... need input .... oh the shame ... I am in wot? position :eek:

Hmmmm that does not sound to bad, am getting into the mode and will start up the folding tonight Thanks Greg much appreciated :)

Am still no good with that process manager though, it was that and optimised apps for seti that de-motivated me for a while.
 
Oh I cant be fussed with all that process do dah am effectively thick and I would only destroy something trying to work it out to heck with that.

Apart from install and passkey hiccup seems all ok does this look right?

 
Ahaaaa, I have moved the slider to full and the gpus are now running.
The points per day showed as 66000 per day but has gone down to 58000 per day with gpu's running so should I drop the gpu's completely?

Not overclocking the gpu's for now but am concerned that the cpu indicator gets to a few percent then changes to cpu 8 and starts from 0% again is this normal?

Other than that anything I am doing wrong please chip in

 
I do not know if its worth an upgrade, it just makes setting up a bit simpler for us thick folk :) There are all the advance options there behing the scenes in settings so you can still "fiddle" with it.
 
I also need to arrange a time to go collect my new toy BaBa has kindly agreed to part with.

PPD I can expect a minimum of 800k (as long as I don't do any of that silly stuff like playing games or watching films etc)

Morning Mr Loudbob sah :)

Hope all is well with you, mind you with all these new toys floating about you could not be anything other than happy as a pig in poop :);)
