Wierd, the opty has had exactly the same.

Also Rich, the newly added barton has been crunching away nicely on 41 and 36 pointers. I think its cause it only has 256mb ram at the moment. Its got a gig going in in a couple of days though. Saying that, its on a 120 pointer now - bout 130 ppd.
 
We've gone red again. Nice.
And my heatsink which i was expecting on monday just arrived, which means the opty will go back up on sunday and with any luck start crunching 24/7.

My farm looks like so:

-p3 733 - on 6 hours
-Celeron 800 - on 12 hours, sometimes 24.
-3200+ - 12 hours, sometimes 24. should be up by tuesday.
-X2 3800+ - 6 hours. Soon 12 hours.
-Opty 175 - 24 hours. Up by sunday.

Borgs:
-Sempron 3100+ - unknown.
-XP 2200+ - unknown.

Overclocks:
-X2 3800+ @ 2.4 = X2 4600+
-Opty 175 @ 2.4 = X2 4800+
-3200+ @ 2.4 = 3800+

I'm aiming for green.
 
Good work Jo

I do like the new sig background btw - looks like the 'inspariation' payed off :D

What's that type font - don't think it's on my copy of photoshop.

I made it with paint, i don't know how to use photoshop.... and the black text isn't a font, i drew it with a paintbrush. ;)
Just took a few screenshots and put them on a sig sized background. Seems to have worked quite well, i'm pleased with it.

I'll be able to put live stats in the next one thanks to Nulls efforts.
 
What would be really cool is if you blank out the background where your stats should be and use null's co-ordinants to overlay realtime stat's in correct place.... only an idea but should work with existing background concept really well.
 
Good idea. I've yet to experiment with that. Only problem is it wouldn't change colour. What i need is a little program that will take screenshots of the page on eoc and update my sig image.

< I've added a 'points' thing to my location. I wonder is there is a way to get that to update itself?
 
Would putting in a dynamic link there do that? Maybe get null to return stats without an image :p

Although I am pretty sure the forum software wont let you do that with the location lol

The opty is up.

You shall not pass, courtesy of one opteron 175, one x2 3800+ and a few others. No more being stomped.

Ooh now I really hate you!

I am overdrawn by 1200 quid, owe my parents about 500 quid and I hate my job too much to get more hours... I can't afford anything! :(

Well they didn't buy themselves... i worked hard for that money. ;) Although at least my job is bearable so i can do a little overtime.

My htpc board seems to have arrived so i might get that going today. Got a penfold on my tail.
 
I've just reloaded the client and will tell the wifey that I'm testing stabillity, nod nod, wink wink. Only an Opty146 @ 2.5Ghz at the mo, so won't make a big impact!
 
Glad to see we are back in the red guys.

I'll be getting folding going on 37 new P4 3Ghz HT machines and stress testing them next week so we should see a jump in output :D

The week after that it should be back to fireing on all cylinders (that is if our old proxy address stays natted to our new one) :o
