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

I've got a few benchmarks for what I think is a stock E4300 (whole PC now sold). I hope they make some sort of sense....

Interesting. If that's WinSMP, that's actually a bit faster than my E6300, clock for clock. If performance scales linearly, clocking that from 1.8Ghz to 3.15Ghz would give 2068ppd. My E6300 at 3.15 can do 2000ppd dead.
 
Hopelessly off topic, but I have 2 Linux SMP's running at the moment, it is only yielding an extra 100 or so ppd with the 2 SMP clients running as opposed to one. Added to which the extra HD activity (Raptors) is starting to annoy me....

I might try the much opposed SMP + 1 GPU.
 
You would be slowing down both clients by quite a lot. Probably better to just run one SMP client.

I'm running two SMP clients but my PPD is way down cos I lost one yesterday and I also stuck with these really, absolutely crap 1300 pointers.
 
Yeah, that's what I'm folding:

In Xubuntu in VMWare. You can see the hit of the 2nd SMP Client.

That's great booyaka - my [email protected] is getting Avg 550ppd on thoses so only ~10% better

@snap - don't have any of those in my benchmarks (what with my linux issues ;) ) I'll check work for stock 6300 benchies and edit the post.
2651-1181ppd [email protected]
2609-755ppd [email protected] :o
2416-280ppd 2414-290ppd (nearest I've got)

Looks like at stock the E4*00 outproform the 6*00 :eek: could be a chipset issue as the office C2D use VIA PT890 (not great)

Anyone crunching a 2613?

I've got one on the P4's here - uses 250mb of ram :eek:
Most I've ever seen for a standard client wu, it's slow too at 5+ days for 150ppd

These are identical 820D PCs, all cloned from the same Sysprep DVD, so I'd like to know what D928CP2J-2 thinks it's doing as it's twice the PPD of the other two. Alternatively, why are the other two so slow....
 
Goddamn folding!

One of my clients got stuck trying to upload any unsent WUs. Saw it at about 11am yesterday and thought nothing of it. Checked it again last night about 2am and the bloody thing was still at 45% and trying to upload :(
 
My new xeon. Not overclocked yet, as heat is a major issue.

Home for the weekend and fitted 2GB of Ballistix to the E6300 rig, seeing some nice numbers:

So what is the stock speed of the Q6600. Nice times
 
Intel say next month they are almost halving the price of the C2Ds. Although that was dollar prices. No idea if they will be halved over here or not.

Might be worth holding on for a little while :)
