most of my machines have now got far better work, I changed most back to beta work but even so most of the WUs they've picked up just seem to be -advmethods rather than proper beta

Ill have an e6300 at 2.8ghz, and a couple of prescotts at 3.0ghz (i guess thats more like 2k RAC on boinc). Will also have an x1950pro on the c2d by the time i start. The thing about f@home is that it requires a lot of RAM? The e6300 and one of the p4s have a gig of RAM each, but the other p4 only has 512mb. So i may need to buy another stick.
Also, i have a coppermine crucnhing for e@home, im guessing it wont be much use for f@home?

Every little bit helps, it comes down to whether or not you want to pay to keep the P3 running.ghost101 said:
As for RAM, not all WUs have large memory requirements. In fact, by default only small WUs are requested.The big 'uns are worth better points though. If I were you and the rig with 512 MiB was a personal machine I'd let it have large WUs and if there were any problems with unresponsiveness I'd drop it down to small WUs. A few of my rigs have 512 MiB RAM and they crunch just fine.
