The coming tide

Got it to 2.8 by upping the FSB to 320 on the G33, seems ok but I might be worth either reseating the cooler, adding somehow an intake fan or going water :eek:

which I'd just need a cpu block for as I have an old waterchill unused kit kicking about in the loft.

Haven't tried any crunching on it yet, as I'd rather get it setup sweet first then set and forget

5k ppd over three machines - very nice indeed :cool:

Nope, all running WinSMP

One on XP, one on W2K3 and one on Vista64 (The AMD)

Might have to consider selling the shuttle tho

what wu is the 4800+ running for 660ppd?
My [email protected] winsmp benchmarks are below

2604-1140ppd
2605-1100ppd
2608-550ppd
2609-590ppd
2610-600ppd
2651-1130ppd
2652-890ppd

Not sure but it never does much more than that no matter what its running. It only has half the cache of the C2D tho.

Biffa · 8 Aug 2007 at 11:02

Tell a lie it jumped up to 1K+ PPD on the 4800+ yesterday.

My [email protected] used to suffer badly with the larger cache WUs - 550PPD seems to ring a bell.
With the nicer WUs it was more like 900PPD so with your extra cache (and possibly extra clock speed) that would probably fit.

Well my PPD is going to drop through the floor today, the motherboard upgrade on the mATX didn't go too well and I had to pull the CPU out from my c2d to update the bios in the bloomin Asus so it would even recognise the Q6600 correctly, so the only thing crunching is my AMD

And nowt will be done about it till tonight.

Duplicate post, Bah forum had a brain fart

sorry to hear that - but short term pain for long term gain

Your'll be flying soon

Back up and running this morning. Hopefully its still running when I get home. It should be ok the web server in one of the vmware images has been up all day, well appears to have been

It could have rebooted.

Clocked the Q6600 down to 3.0Ghz as and needs less volts and is much cooler like that in these summer months. Shouldn't affect output too much, running faster memory should make up the difference I hope.

Well got a Sugo E6320 silent system to build tonight, might let it crunch a few WU's for me before I have to deliver it on Sunday, just to make up for the outage you know.
