But he refers to them as Barts XT and Barts PRO, which according to the chart, are the 6700 series, not the 6800 series. I think the PCPer writer just mixed things up.

Aha. I'm sure the "ground" contact on the switch would be used in some applications but I wouldn't have known to avoid it in this scenario (which is why I ask). Thanks.

I'm looking at this RAM LED kit. It has an expansion slot plate with a knob on it that selects different effects and presumably includes an "off" state. However, I think it'd be good to also have a switch on the front of the case to also just turn it on and off. If I wanted to wire it to a...

Bwahaha. One of my VMs just finished a WU and FahMon got way confused for a moment until it picked up the start of the next WU. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn312/Avrithor/fahmon_bug.jpg If it completed 1,717,986% of a 1920 point WU, shouldn't I have gotten 32,905,331 points for it? :D

It seems to be widely variable based on the project. It blasted through that one at 3800, and now I'm looking at it and the last one it finished was a 5737 unit worth 511 pts., at 2612 PPD.

Wow. Okay, according to FahMon, the GPU is tearing it up now at 3800 PPD. I guess those environment variables and having the proper priorities set really makes a difference! (I do also have a mild OC on the 4870 at 760/920 in CCC. There's probably headroom for more there.)

I upped FLUSH_INTERVAL to 128 and am now sitting at GPU 2100, VMs 2400/2200. This may be the best balance I can find. The GPU is crunching a P4754 WU worth 477 pts. Strangely enough, when I checked them in Task Manager, the affinities were set right on the two vmware processes, but one of them...

About an hour and a half later, my GPU2 PPD has nosedived to 1900, and the VMs are up to 2500/2300.

I'm stationed at Elmendorf AFB in Anchorage, AK. 6 weeks is because I'm going on terminal leave soon, my 4 years AD conclude in September. EDIT: In case you were wondering why there's no AC and assumed it's because this is the military, I would like to note that "air conditioning" is a bizzare...

I'm only running a very mild OC at 2.8, and my temps are 56-58C. My problem is that I'm in a military barracks, bottled up in a tiny room that gets blazing hot very quickly with multiple machines folding away. (And no air conditioning.) So that limits my ability to OC. But thankfully I'm out of...

Yeah, that was it. Have GPU2 running at ~3100PPD on my 4870, and two VMs at ~1200 and ~1800 respectively, according to FahMon.

Good question, I'll check that! Yeah, configured there for SMP instance per 2 CPUs.

Hey. Getting back into folding and trying to get VMs working. I'm running Win7 x64 on a Q9450, and both VMs launch as "fold" running two instances each of the standard client, and refuse to do "fold64"/SMP client on account of detecting only an i686 processor and not x86-84. numvcpus is set to...

I'm not sure why you guys are having so much trouble. My Vista64/4870 box is doing very well with the Steam version of Warhead @ 1680x1050. Shadows on Mainstream, Objects/Physics on Gamer, everything else on Enthusiast, no AA, and it's running nice and smooth. /shrug

Halfway there! *folds on*

Welcome, AssM@N! *braces for the imminent mowing-over* :D

Great news! I myself have a 4870 for the killer gaming bang/buck, naturally I'd love to see it fold harder too. :cool:

Grats on 3 mil!

Nice job Air Cooled 420! Keep on foldin'! :cool:

Nah, it's okay... clearly all available mathematical power has been diverted to folding. :D

psst... that's 8 digits! ;) 8 digits of pure WTF!!! Congrats lelliott!

Exciting stuff! I've got a while to wait as I'm planning on building for the 32nm "tick", when the motherboards and DDR3 have had plenty of time to mature. Still, this is some awesome technology to look forward to. Now we just need to see some performance and overclocking reviews!

Heading into the colder months I expect we can ramp up nicely and soundly defeat OCAU...at least for the time being. I wonder if we can hit 3 million PPD as a team by the end of the year?

You can't have seriously thought this through. It has nothing to do with this generation or with trust of corporations vs. trust of individual people. People trust Steam because: 1. The service has been available for years and historically has near-perfect uptime. 2. It's in Valve's best...

Kyle is right. Your P45 board is going to run Crossfire in 8x PCIe 2.0, which is a major improvement over 8x PCIe 1.0. It doesn't bottleneck Crossfire like P35 did, there's nothing to worry about. Sure, you'd see some improvement on an X48 board - in canned benchmarks at least - but for actual...

Another gigantic WTF!!! for the [H]orde, first 1 billion team points, and a 9 million milestone for one of our folders. Hats off to you!

My 8800GTX whines ever since I overclocked it, it's annoying as all heck but usually I'm listening to music anyway so I don't hear it. Funny thing, when it was in my main rig and I was gaming on it I left it at stock speed, I never bothered to OC it until GPU2 came out. :)

Steamroller is the right word! Grats Sunin.

WTF, APOLLO! Grats!

Achieving our first billion points is truly a milestone worthy of celebration.

Yeah, but if Volvo comes out with a new model and sells it for as much as a Porsche would cost you, the comparison becomes reasonable. This board is $250. That's insane for a part that's only good for stable stock speed operation. There are far less expensive parts that will fulfull that same...

Add me to the list of fans here. My boxen are Corsair powered, every build I do for friends and acquaintances is Corsair powered, and I recommend nothing else to those who ask my advice. What can I say, you guys have simply earned it. I would love to see you enter other markets such as cases...

I have this one. It does the job. The handle is not uncomfortable and the clips are solid, I never feel like they're going to break or that my rig is less than secure.

Nice truckload of points you've got there! Congrats!

Grats! Still have over 100 days to get there myself...*grumble*...that's far too long...

I wish mine would run at 1750 shaders :( ATI Tool starts reporting errors at 1500 and system crashes come shortly thereafter. By contrast I have my 8800GS at 1500 shaders 100% stable and I think it will go faster. WTF!! Sorry, I guess this isn't really an overclocking thread, but if anyone has...

WTF indeed, 4 mil! Keep it up and Fold On!!!

Awesome, thanks for coming on board Waffletron! Let's show OCAU how folding is truly done.

Oh man, I wish I could, with the Aussies' ramp-up and all, but I just don't have any cash to spare. Oh well...hot rebates are always coming and going. I'm sure there'll be a wicked deal or two going on later this fall.

From what I've heard, ATI drivers powering a single card + nVidia drivers powering a single card have an easier time coexisting on the same system than nVidia drivers trying to sort out two nVidia cards in some configurations. That's just anecdotal though. But I don't see why it wouldn't work.
