Ahh that's more like it - mass joinage - welcome to the team!!!

If you haven't done so already then why not check out the Folding@Home Setup Guide and the Quickie Guide for more foldy-tastic tips especially for when you're in a rush

Well a much better week all round - I don't know about you but I'd really like to be stomping on some Mac slackers by this time next week
You'll see the addition of the single machine crunchers league, if you want to be added then simply post in this news thread - the name and colour will be decided accordingly :p
Sorry anyone who's not been mentioned - you know what to do now :)
***Only got one machine crunching? - Have a looky here***

oooops!!! :o

sorry about that - the tiffy's are the only thing that I really have to concentrate for (and obviously I didn't hard enough this week :p), at least it makes a change from me missing off Vent's tiffies :D

edit: oh and congrats on that tiffy - very spiffy!!!
 
hehe :p

A heavily overclocked X2 with some really good WUs - good for 3,300 points in a week it would seem
that bit is believeable but we all know conc likes to play those g**e things a lot :eek: :p

commence the torture mister mattus - make him talk :D

how come? my X2 only produces 1,500pt a week..

my guess would be beta WUs since he's had quite a few 677pointers which are DGromacs Beta WUs which should utilise the SSE2 capability of the A64 and above

3,300 is an average of 236 PPD per core, with the 677pointer on my rig I can get 150 PPD and that's at 2.2GHz without SSE2

of course it's also possible he got very lucky with timing and managed to finish a couple of WUs just after the cut-off last week and just before the cut-off this week


if you keep a fairly keen eye on your X2 you might want to sign up to the beta group so you can get it some more demanding (and rewarding) work - i posted details in last week's news post about requirements and where you go to join

decided i may aswell bung it in here anyway :p

There is some pretty hefty work available for beta testing at the moment, probably better suited to A64 and above as my XP is choking on them a little.

Please don't join the beta group just for the extra points though - they need people who will be able to report back with any problems as soon as possible and who know enough about computers to be able to rule out any effects from anything else running on their systems.

If you wish to join you'll need to have an account for the folding forums and post in this thread and...

Please include a short statement of your qualifications and why you would like to be added. If you fail to do this, you will not be eligible to join the beta team.
Click to expand...

Once again - please do not join just for the chance of extra points, you must be willing and able to contribute to the testing of new work - also the points are not always good for beta work, sometimes for instance work is released with much lower points than it should really have - these are not always fully re-credited, you are also more likely to get EUEs which can result in partial credit worth much less than the share of the WU that was completed


Anyway just thought it was worth making you aware that there is more to folding than a repetitive stream af dull 56 pointers :o
Who's up for some? :D

smug ******* :p

lets see you do the same again this week - and none of that re-installing windows and forgetting to back-up the registry key to inflate your CPU count malarky :o


hehe seriously though good work fella - you're not making it any easier trying to resist spending the new bed/furniture fund on a lovely X2 crunching beast :eek:

So who says that we just take up a collection and get Rich a 3800+. It would be a good investment in the long run becasue we wouldn't have to spend our valuable billable hours paying witness to his bellyachin' :p
Click to expand...
hehe - and the room went quiet :p

I will get one, or some kind of upgrade - probably second hand though :D

don't look now Huddy but looks like you're getting a few 364 pointers - linky :eek: :D
infact just over the last 24 hours you've dumped 1,208 points worth of WUs :cool:


Creature I wouldn't worry about checking for stability - all the bad WUs were done back in december according to your EOC Stats and it doesn't look to me like you've had any since then :)
