Probably close to a full blown Skulltrail system :rolleyes:

Dropped off a bit yesterday...but great work from such few members :up: :up:
Just upgraded my quad, been running since last night. This will give me 3 quads running 24/7 on WCG now. This one at 3.8, another at 3.6, and the last one at 3.35.

nice! what board?
P5K Premium for that one. P5K Deluxe for the 3.6, and a P5B on the 3.35 one. The rig in my sig, plus another quad with a Neo 2-FR, I run F@H on. Then I also have an E6300 @ 3.4 and a x2 3800 @ 2.8 running D2OL. That's the farm :)
Was just just going to bring up this point, but I don't know if I'd really call them all that new though(well, to WCG I mean). Those that have checked to see what's going on at R@H these days will have noticed a new team in the lead; ESL started a team there some months back and totally crushed our point stockpile.Quote:

It looks like they have cut back on R@H and probably will be putting a lot WCG instead, or some of the other projects too. Luckily, it looks like over all boinc projects they don't quite command the output Team 2ch does, so we could stand a chance. This just means we need to make a push forwards :up:
They are currently ranked 420th, so they are not a threat. In fact they are more than 1.3 billion behind us. The closest team to us, Clubic, trails by 600 million.Quote:

making a new rig there phelan?
no, not a new rig, I had two rigs when I was @ my gfs parents house, just didnt have the parts to finish it.
Moved into our new place and only had one rig up, because I wasnt sure how it would affect the electric bill, but seeing it warmed up the office quite a bit, and I am working again, I can pay for the juice, and gf likes it cause she doesn't like cold, so its a win win for me, just have not gotten around to finishing things, been really cold here so I haven't not been able to work on the CM690 outside, cutting and sanding.
Now I have all the pieces for a loop for two rigs, and have my main down because I need to swap the CPU block, clean out the loop, and putting in new water and cleaning blocks.
Will have a X3220 and a QX6700 @ 3.2-3.6 when both are up, as well as SLI on main for gaming and getting my 7900GTX back up on the X3220 rig.
Yeah, the guy is eff'n opinionated, good for nothing dreck ( at least thats' my opinion... :) ).Quote:

And that's even 5500+ Active members. Guess maybe we should have made a drive for the challenge, they are obviously strong competition. May have been fun to participate.Quote:

Help me out on this one. ESL is a new team that joined this week?
Very true.. I'm sure we all know we don't need our own "drives" pushed... pure addiction is sufficient... but it is sometimes enjoyable to put a new fire into others. It could have been a good excuse to spread the addi...errm fun around.Quote:

Do they have some incentive to crunch like easynews? As opposed to unmatched dedication, hardwares and skillz like those of us at XS? :)

Well it took 5500, also, this is a key question, how many will stay with the project?
With all the grp jumps, there is the "I JUST JOINED" hype, but there is always those that come off the high and don't stick with the project, no matter the team.
"The Electronic Sports League (ESL, formerly called ESPL) is a league for computer gaming. Since it derived from the Deutsche Clanliga (DeCL), it is the oldest league of its kind. Furthermore, its more than 750,000 registered members, 350,000 teams and 4.2 million matches carried out so far make it one of the biggest European leagues for professional computer gaming. It comprises a professionally arranged and organized gaming and league system with more than 1,800 leagues for both, amateurs and professionals as well as approximately 80 games of every popular genre."
Well, if we few, we merry and stoic few can stand firm to such a mighty foe, though we may fall, we will not fall easy. Much to the chagrin of many that dare face our small band.
Another new quad is coming online tonight.......Quote:

edit: awesome Bob! I was gonna offer you my newly old Zalman 9500 but I guess I'm too late even if you would have wanted that semi-decent hsf

Lol, sadly, that's the way I've begun to think. I bought an amd 5000 be because I had a spare heatsink laying around that I didn't think would really cut it for a Quad. And I wanted to go back to having at least ONE amd system, figured I'd use it as my gamer/browser, then strip the intels down and make em go to work. Problem... Big typhoon didn't fit on AM2... and my shop is stuck away in a cargo container atm. So... I STILL have that damn sink laying around :rofl: Maybe I'll have to buy another quad to replace my 6400 (didn't I do that in january already?).. oo then get another mb, ram psu for the 6400!Quote:

It was a half serious joke, but I still wish he had gone the full 8gb :p:
Anyway, if anyone is in Sacramento, and has a spare pci, or pcie vid card, I'm sure he'd be thrilled to be able to put power to it... and get it on the grid this weekend. Everything came but the quadro card... he has to wait till tuesday for that.
now... about that typhoon.. what to do.. what to do.....
You've caught the essence of it all, the answer is simple, and you already know what it is......Build another machine!!:eek: :DQuote:

Remember, Dr. SiG is our resident Staff expert here. I'm sure he can help you over the guilt of adding "just one more"...:shrug: :clap: :rofl:
lol my typhoon is going on my 3220 for now till I get another part for a loop.
My output will be down for a few days, due to a power outage at the office that kept my farm there down for the better part of Sat/Sun. Some 15 sticks of DDR2 ram died as a result, though I managed to bring the entire farm back up except for a E6700 rig and a DC rig which I'll work on next week.

That's why :D
After I repaired and restarted most of the rigs at the office on Sunday there was no internet access since the routers were also taken out and were not restarted until Monday morning. But I am happy to report that all rigs are back online, though a score of quads are now running on 1 Gig of ram in single channel.
DDTUNG:cool:
That is going to be one big dump :DQuote:

I put on quad #12 last night. It's my new garage workbench machine. I'm typing this on it now. It was an easy build and software install. This machine also looks to be a good clocker. It is a week 39 Q6600 on a DS3L. It's at an easy 3 gig with just 1.4 bios CPU volts set, for loaded CPUz volts of 1.312 and coretemps of 55,55,49,51. I'm thinking this one may do 3.5-3.6 with some tweaking. I'm getting better at clocking slowly but surely.
Regards Victor,
Bob

I spent the better part of 10 hours, today, deep in computers. I had a quad rig, I had loaned out, returned to me. It has an OS installed now ( the drive that was in it was the only part of it that wasn't mine ), but I've run out of time for the day. I'll get it fully up tomorrow.
The guy returned it after several months of use ( and crunching, of course ) because he finally got the last of his parts together for his first build. It is kind of a mirror of the one I had loaned him, LOL. We spent most of the day putting it together.
q6600, 2 x 2GB Patriot, 550 GB of SATA HDD, Blue LED Tuniq Tower 120, Sapphire HD 3870/512, Corsair 520HX, twin DVD-R/RW's. The best part of it is he kinda likes the idea of crunching, so he will be joining his rig to XS~WCG
