	Log in to remove this sponsored message quote Gravity Well at least this job I'm running is almost done, got about half hour to wrap up before I take it down again to add stuff and swap out my outlet. Going to work on setting up other rigs this weekend too. Not nearly as many points but should still help some when they are in use. Can put that 9800GT to use at least . I'm a little curious how it'll turn out. Haven't spun a Big that only took 2 days instead of 3 before. Hope it's still good points. This message was edited by Gravity on Sep 04 2010. any points help and did i say welcome back earlier? -------------------

	Hey cool wb too. WelL I'll find out soon, it was done like sooner then I said but had a hard time connecting and sending data back. I'll post what it does when I can. I need to run out for a bit so I'll tackle some of this later It started another job and it's not a big so it should be able to clear it out in a 4-5 hours. ------------------- ...inre pair...

	Wow nice then. I wish I could get that all the time too. I get excited when I get a Big. So the faster you get them done the higher the bonus. So maybe I'll tweak a little higher on the next one if I'm ready. This is exactly why I won't fold with my ATI cards because I'd negate any benefit or wind up negative for points if I had to give up cores to run GPU. 714361 641745 072616 ------------------- ...inre pair...

	I'm not sure I understand why it won't meet them. It actually doesn't meet them or there is not enough left to get bonus? Maybe because it doesn't run hyperthreading? Anyone know does running hyperthreading on or off affect folding? Can you OC your chip? 66% done of the next smaller job. I want to try to fix this other motherboard I have, it's a 1366 but it has some bent pins. If I can fix that I'd buy another i7 the same week cause I all else I'd need is a psu. ------------------- ...inre pair...

Anyone know does running hyperthreading on or off affect folding? It will not meet them.the hyperthreading uses 8 cores(4real,4 virtual)to meet the bigadv deadlines. quote Gravity Can you OC your chip? i can take it up to 3.6 but the temps start to reach about 90c on one or two cores when i do.(while folding) quote Gravity 66% done of the next smaller job 74% done on one started 7 hrs ago.i get about 6 min a percentpoint. -------------------

	So I wonder if Sandy Bridge will rewrite the Folding game or if it's optimizations and changes won't make much difference. They could be killers @ folding though I'd probably use mine for transcoding if I had one. ------------------- ...inre pair...

	quote Gravity So I wonder if Sandy Bridge will rewrite the Folding game or if it's optimizations and changes won't make much difference. depending on what they cost and my budget is at the time i intend to find out.(if hii does not beat me to it) here is a link that explains the bigadv units and what is required to finish on time or before. edit: nice job gravity you got more points in one day than i get in a week!!!

	Cool link, I'll have to check this out more. I fell asleep . What an exciting day lol. Didn't set up other pc yet . Well 2 be fair though yesterday I didn't get any points so it takes a while to build up for big jobs. It'd be so nice to have a pair of skt 1366 Xeons right now. ------------------- ...inre pair...

	wht are good temperatures for my gpu to maintain? I just looked at it and it was 83 C. TBH, ive nver seen it go that high, even while playing games...is that ok? Thats pretty hot.

	It's fine, that card runs a little hot. As long as you are under 90 it's ok, if you start going over evaluate your cooling and maybe clean it out or reseat your heatsink possibly. ------------------- ...inre pair...

I was looking around on the stamford folding forums earlier and asked why nvidia got new programs first and why amd/ati had to wait for the open cl to be open for both to use before ati got a new program.Hereis the answer igot. -------------------

	So looks like they put all the fault to ATI. Not surprised, I'm sure if ATI wanted to be agressive and fix this they could. ------------------- ...inre pair...

	more than likely but others(seti and milkyway for example)use a different style for ati and nvidia and update the codes with the new releases. on another note: here is a link to a project calculator that you add in the average step time and it tells you your total for the smp2 with bonus! gravity there s a smaller link at the bottom of the calc for your big units. -------------------
