feriso

A great big warm welcome to the team! :)

Well we sure showed those neighbours a thing or two anyway, way to go team :cool:
I felt with such a good week it's only fair that everyone deserved a mention :)
Sorry anyone who's not been mentioned - you know what to do now

Look at the trend line!!!

Wow, up AGAIN! team, amazing. Helped by more x1900s no doubt, and the epic production of whitestar, sculptor, top 5 really.

Keep building on it team, 100k soon! And it wasn't long ago that 50k was the big target :)

Do you get mayo with that sandwich? :D
 
Another good week for team 10 \o/ We should have a stomp for next weeks news.

Not as good a week as last week for me. Got off to a good start but been getting crap WUs most of the week so output is down by about 500 ppd :(
Also, my Opty 170 has decided to start playing up and is currently not on :o - I'll get it looked at tomorrow as I cba tonight.

As always, thanks to Rich for the news and a warm foldy welcome to the newcomers :)

Fold on team 10.

Stan :)
 
Thanks for the news. Excellent week. :)

Got my opty running 24/7 finally, since last sunday.
Since its the perfect weather for it, i overclocked my media center, up by 200mhz before it started getting too hot. With a new cooler i reckon it might go up 500mhz. Thats on 24/7 aswell.
I'm going to put my opty back to 2.5 soon which is as high as it seems to go. Need the heat tbh, its 1.2 degrees outside atm.

Just stomped Penfold, as promised.

A tentative parp to RobOC, all things considered i might just be in a position to stomp you.

And Mr SiriusB, i'm still waiting for my promised stomp... ;)


From a team perspective, everyone in the top 20 is crunchers is now a nice red colour, and we're on the verge of breaking the 100,000 average ppd mark. Well done everyone, keep it up.

Click to expand...

Awesome! Best filling EVA! ;) Aren't you lucky being between us ;)

Dammit, I thought I'd get ahead of you this week - I think THIS week, will be mine :p I'm trying to aim for 9k a week, but this may require a bit of tweaking - still I'm up on last week so things are going in the right direction

Great progress - our trend line is rising hard and fast like a geek's loins in front of Loaded magazine...

Great crunching Team 10 - in a few weeks we'll be in the top 40 and moving on up! :cool:
 
Awful week for me. 1 600 pointer (510ppd), rest (5) have been all amber units giving 150-180 ppd.

Why dont they make the ppd system more comparative from WU to WU?
 
Because they take different lengths of time, use different amounts of memory, different cores, sse/sse2, some are freaks and are double for no reason etc. :)
 
New catalyst 6.10 driver out today with official support for the gpu client, anyone tried it?

Wondering if i should update the quick guide while i'm on.


I've added a benchmarks section and am updating the folding myths a little, plus a few other things perhaps. The quick guide can be found here.

Also need to make a new sig, lack of photoshop skills are limiting my imagination.


Edit: Does anyone know if there is a way to force this forum software not to ignore tabs and spaces? Currently it ignores any more than 1. Would be useful for a few things in the quick guide.

Okay week for me, at least I still managed to drop 7k which means my PPD is around 1k. Really could do with upping my output as it wasn't too long ago I was hitting the 1200-1300PPD mark.

The lack of 600 pointers seems to be the main culprit. I may change one of my home rigs back to -advmethods and see what I get.

With the SLC so graciously sending me 850 quid I will be upgrading current system and getting file server sooner than even I thought. I am still trying to work out what to do though...

Once I upgrade to a C2D I will have a 4400+, DFI Ultra-D and 2GB OCZ going spare. I think all that is a little much for a file server for the home... but then again I am tempted to stick the 4400+ in my brothers PC [replacing his 3700+] and maybe even dropping my RAM into his machine.

Gah decisions decisions! I know, I am gonna put it to the vote:

a: Sell the bits and buy some cheaper parts
b: Keep em and use them in the file server
c: Keep em and swap them for bro's CPU and RAM
d: <insert alternative>

Great news as always Mr Millions. Great work everyone, especially you people who are about to bend me over and insert a large quivering appendage*

SiriusB

*Your stomping foot! :D
 
I'm in the same boat Mr Sirius.
Trying to decide if its worth putting the opty in the fileserver and getting a c2d...
I do have a 3200+ in my media centre which could go in the fileserver and the opty could go in the media centre but that would mean swapping cpus (as the media canter is mAtx) which would be a pain.

Perhaps another option for you... do it now or wait for cheaper quad core?


Just thinking how much the opty cost, and how much its worth, i wouldn't spend that on a fileserver. But in a way this is different.
