Folding@Home Weekly Team News - 17th May 2007

good news again - as always.

booyaka- any chance you can post some FaH benchmarks of your system. I don't have any stats for the new e4*00 and as far as I know your the only one here. Thanks

If you've any idea how much power your rig uses when folding that would be great too. Many thanks

Just cut and paste a few of the benchies from Fahmon.

power wise - no idea - how would i check.

best way is with a plug in meter but you obviously don't have one. (me neither btw )
second best was is via the electric meter (but it's a bit of a hassle) don't worry i'll keep checking the web.

Edit: The E4300 is about 145w when folding with a 80plus PSU and basic card.
add a few watts for your tagan and your x1900 at idle and you should be around 150w at stock.

Oc's work out at 60w per 1Ghz of Oc
Your chip is running 1.2Ghz faster (60x 1.2 = 72)
150+72= 222w when folding

and about 350w when gaming [plus screen (38w) and speakers (?)]

Damn you!

Here's a hint:

nice stats - will post up some benchies in about 2 hours or so.

Here's a hint:

I may well be being incredibly dense now, but what are they?

They would know in forum No. 10.

ipod shuffle (1st gen) - so you know 1337, but not apple's number 2 selling product

Your really should stop giveing me ammunition SB

 

[shadowscotland]

Edit: billy your getting quite cryptic in your old age

Bar humbug - double post rolleyes: at himself)

 

[SiriusB]

Well I am sorry but the last shuffle I saw was silver and of a more compact design.

Second, in the photo they are non-descript bits of white plastic!

EDIT: Why are the apparant shuffles in his pic nothing like either of the shuffles in the wiki article you posted?

 

[BillytheImpaler]

ipod shuffle (1st gen)

The black edge should've been a dead giveaway.

 

[shadowscotland]

Hidden links now as well - appoliges SB I was wrong too

Close enought to guess what BillytheCrytic was on about but none close enought. Where on earth did you get that many ******s anyway

Edit:

I woundn't say 'nothing like'

 

[SiriusB]

What the hell are they then? Just bloody tell me. I am in no mood [nor frame of mind] for puzzles!

Party pooper! They're Apple Remotes. Apple Remotes come with the new iMacs (and all other macs too).

2.0 Ghz C2D, 1 GiB PC2-6400...







times 25


Hopefully I'll have FAH on a few of them in a week or two.

I know I shouldn't laugh (but i did) follow billy's link (it's hidden by the wink icon) and behold - apple remote.

I'm guessing that billy got a mac or two to fold with

Edit: just not quick enough (again)

 

[SiriusB]

25 iMacs.

We're all doomed!

EDIT: Came across as a bit petulent in my last post. Didn't mean it. Been arsed around by my bank so I am a bit irritable! Sorry

 

[shadowscotland]

no problem - banks
my old bank gave me 3 days to payoff my £1500 overdraft in full - (which I did) but their not my bank anymore.

 

[SiriusB]

Trying to sort out a Career Development Loan and they want statements I don't have [rarely keep them ] and I rang to see if it was necessary since I am a customer [non-account holders can get this type of loan you see]. First they said no. Then I rang back to check something else and then they said yes I needed them.

Now I can't get hold of them so I am, to put it politely, ****ed off.

 

[shadowscotland]

That more like it - All banks offer a service to print out previous statments (at a charge) but I don't see why they would charge for a paper copy of information they already have - makes no sence.

We needed back statments (3 years!) for our morgage - £1 per monthly statment from one (I keep mine but had two missing) and £2.50 from our internet bank that £90! (offical e-mail statments were not good enought ) one of many hidden charges when moving
