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:

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.

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:

Actually, yeah it does make a difference. Shutting down unused background processes raised the bench on this Opty 185 by 50 points, and it didn't start with that many daemons running.
Thanks for the benches. :up:
edit: Oh and errrm ... which Vista x64?
Like that made any difference D_A ;)
Same rig, same settings, Vista Business x64, switched BOINC version to 6.4.5, an behold, 60 points less int and 1000 points less float :shocked:

If you don't mind. I'm just curious if it does a GPU benchmark as well.

I'll keep an eye on my stats for this rig at my grid page to see actual production differences.
funny how x64 affects one bench more than the other..
IF that bench proves to be accurate and production stay good you're looking at an increase in returns of over 7400 WCG points (estimated) :eek:
Didn't we find out that FPU score counts way more than Integer a while back?

You are probably right because scaling with oc on that setup is much more noticeable on the fpu number (approx 100 points per 90mhz oc) and negligible on the integer score.Quote:

I stopped folding on the rig in my sig due to my GPU being on fire 24/7, and my CPU runs quite warm at 100% load, and the fans ramped all the way up are very loud for 24/7 use. But the MacPro is a great folder. And if it breaks... I got a 3 year warranty! YEY STEVE!
Maybie ill try folding on the new i7 rig...

195x21=4,1Ghz for comparison:
FPU: 3736

Rest same as above.
Just for :banana::banana::banana::banana:s and giggles, I benched 4,4Ghz w/o HT and got:
FPU: 4421
Integer: 13217
While I'm at it, I installed 6.5.0 on the i7, 21x195 again:
FPU: 3787
Integer: 12762
So it seems to be faster than my old client!
Yeah, 6.5 faster here.
Thanks guys :up:
Just wait till my XP-M finishes installing XP.. I just took it out of the dust corner and am in for some benching :D
Man how I loved that rig, with several HW changes I had that one as my main rig from early 2001 until late 06 :shocked:
http://database.he-computer.de/Bilder/temp/AXP3.JPG
:ROTF:
Methinks someone's cable management skills have improved. :lol:
Damn, you already oc'd the cdrom drive too :ROTF:
Pfff.. this trusty rig never knew the meaning of that word, "cable management" - I am not gonna shock it by introducing something new in its late days :D
At 240x11=2650Mhz, DRAM at 480 2-2-2-11 DUal Channel not quite as good a clocker as I remember it to be, but still - 38s SuperPi 1M :D
Now on to BOINC install...
Ok DA, here you go:
http://database.he-computer.de/Bilde.../XPM_BOINC.jpg
If this ancient rig doesn't still kick some serious butt I don't know what does :D On XP Pro SP3
BOINC manager projects 4:30 completion for one HCC WU.. Sounds a bit too good to be true but we'll see.
So that's an XP-M 3000? And is that BOINC 6.5.0?
For some reason I got the idea it was a 2400m :shrug:
No, it's a 2600+ XP-M. It's a mobile CPU made for notebooks, I don't even know its default clocks, it always bootet at 100x6 calling itself "Athlon XP Mobile".Quote:

BTW I must say its purdy and seems snappier than Vista but I betcha it has the same issues with HPP

some completion times:

Scores are low because of slow memory, I could get them higher if I had more time.
I get not found on first screen.
Fixed!
Which variant of Vista is that?Quote:

Take your pick, rest same as usual (BOINC 6.5.0, Server 08 x64)

:cool: :up:
Thanks :up:
Told ya the last one was a dog :p:
Still makes my stuff look sick. :shakes:
Speaking of, the socket A took 6:40 for one HCC WU... I guess the time for Athlon XPs really has passed, even for the best of them. :(
Well yes ... kinda. If that's what ya got then it's better than running nothing, but you wouldn't buy one over a quad of any description.

I was reasoning it might be better for me to just go Deneb and be done with it as I already have a am2+ rig setup so costs would be low to go that route. I think I am Sold on a 920 i7 now maaaaaby a 940 if I wait little longer for the cash.

I would not call the results "skewed". Phenom II 940 really performs the same as Q9450 in most apps. It just so happens that it is slower on WCG-specific workloads.Quote:
