F@H Cruncher Slug Out - Mk. II ** In Progress **

I still need machine specs from Rich (excused because he's doing the news ;) ), Berserker (excused because he's a Don and can ban my ass :o ) and Whitestar - no excuse :p (I've got the CPU info from your earlier post but can you please supply the rest?).

Thank you.
 
Oops. Cruncher got a bit hot there for a second. Fixed. :eek:

Mind you, the little Mini likes getting hot and there ain't a damn thing I can do about it. :(

As soon as i get some water cooling i'll have this beast up to 4Ghz I hope. I've had it at 3.8Ghz with only changing the multiplier, ive not even touched the FSB yet :D
But on air cooling it got too hot too fast.

Ok both mine are up and running, had a little problem with both machines but its fixed now, hopefully they should run fine for the rest of the challenge! :D

How do you see how far your WU has gone etc? im using the command line.
 
Mine's chugging away at approx. 500 ppd so far. Fingers crossed for those elusive 364 pointers (only for me though :p ).
 
Weird. The cruncher I expected to do well at this is getting pummelled by another machine. At everything else I've tried it's been the reverse. :confused:

Wonder if, being new, FAH isn't detecting it correctly. That'd be a shame. :(
 
Just started at 2 hours after start time :eek: Was at work.

Does it have to download a new wu before it folds under the new name?
 
ok ok I can't keep the beast secret anymore :p

I'll work on getting a nice overclock on the XP1700 rig and put that up at the start of the second week of the competition :)
 
Ok. Here is the list of competitors for your perusal.

Some nice rigs in there :)
