I'm a linux fan , but I also want to try some games on this machine.
I have a multi-boot arrangement for that on my rig. I spend 99% of my time in linux and just occasionally play CoD 1/2/4 online. It's been a couple of weeks since I played last though.
Jaco for heaven's sake.. download Isoburn or just use nero :p:Quote:

My plan was to install a 64bit OS on my new 10.2k rpm SAS drives (raid0) when my watercooling setup is finished.
But I'm still waiting on your package , jcool. Should be here tomorrow ...
Due to the disparity between my estimated claims and ... well ... reality, I have revised my formula slightly. Please have a look and see if the numbers you're getting are more in line with what I've estimated. Thanks. ;)
Sammy results look a little high, as Dave is getting pretty much spot on 7k PPD on his at 2.0 GHz. However the quad results look pretty much spot on, and I'll let you know how the E7200 goes over the next week.

I posted the 14 day average of my Sammy somewhere, on XP 32. It was 7,7k.Quote:

Here it is.. I dunno, maybe it's the 230V making it run faster :ROTF:
So that's 7.7k awarded, but what is it claiming? I can't hope to guess the quorum.

You don't really expect me to manually Look up & add up the claims of 100 WUs vs. the granted, do you :p:Quote:

Not that I'm aware of. Just ten or so should do as a rough indication though, and I'm after claimed credit for X amount of time, really.Quote:

8 cores :)Quote:

So it gets pretty much what it claims (unlike my harper.. argh)
Damn, that felt like work :p:

Seriously guys, ya'll need to get x64 OSes. Not just for crunching, if you are a heavy multitasker like me you'll love the feeling of Vista (especially XSOS :D ) with 6+ GB of Ram :yepp: :up:
The 32bit install is strictly temporary for running 3dvantage, pcmark05, and wprime. Still have a few vid cards to run before I switch to server 03 and unfortunately I couldn't afford a 6gb ram kit.Quote:

Below machine. Unfortunately only running 3.3 ATM, I'll see if I can't squeeze out more. Want the thermal paste to cure a little as well.. :p:
MJ12 runs on that machine also and takes a "little" cpu power so thay is the reason for the difference..:DQuote:

Wonderful Dave but it means nothing when you can't remember what you had for lunch today :rofl: :ROTF:Quote:
