Well done every one.. and a special well done to my friend Stan for reaching 400k :)


Good week for me.. My first 10k+ week so a new mile stone.


Question! Am I right in thinking that these new conroe processors will run 4 instances of folding?

Nope - they are proper dual-core rather than the single core with a load of slack that we'll call HT and pretend like we meant to do it :p

However they will run 2 instances and get 1000+ PPD for each instance with some basic overclocking and some decent WUs
/me tips hat to Intel for finally making something worth buying

The up and coming Kentsfield chips on the otherhand are a different matter - two Conroe's on the same chip - twice the fun and 4 times the crunchage :cool:

Is all that in the sticky? You should put it in there if its not.
It's in the old sticky in the archive. We decided when writing the new one that not too many people used the diskless method and as such that section was omitted.

A link to it would be handy I guess - easy enough to do
