Droppy trend line their stan, you must be waving to hard :p
We'll just ignore the fact that most peoples graphs start a 0 where as yours is 3000ppd ;)

It may be a bit droopy but I'm really quite pleased.

I've been away for 3 1/2 weeks now and as far as I can tell, I've only lost one rig since then (the E6300 was switched not on before I left due to stability issues which I didn't have time to fiddle with before I left.

Stan :)

PS: The "droop" may possibly get a shot of e-Viagra when I get back ;)
 
2 new machines for me in the this and next week, got a core 2 duo 6300 on its way.

plus..................................


i'm currently typeing this on a Core 2 Quadro Q6600 with 2 gig of ram :D

expect a upping of output going through this week.

sorry for the very late news guys - been a bit busy with the thief of time that is Ogame :p

rest assured I have got the stats safe and sound - will probably get it underway in a mo but don't go staying up if you have school tomorrow :D
 
If I were to go for a custom folding machine, bearing in mind it wouldn't be the hottest spec, what would the best os/folding client be?

And does it benefit more from large system RAM, or more processor speed?

core 2 with 1gig ram and linux so it could run SMP
I can't use my c2d machine for linux, I use it for video editing, modelling, and finale :(

What about a pIV with 1.8GB ram? Is Hyper-threading any good?

Wish I could use some of the quad processor-dual core, 4gb ram servers we use at work, wonder if I could ninja it onto a few of them :p

Edit: sorry, whats smp?
 
no you can

SMP is a client made for dual/quad/more core systems, basicaly runs 4 copys of FAH and makes better use of the multiple cores.

see the SMP Guide thread
