good timing for me...i have a gpu dropping in 3 minutes
wow - look at those numbers!
:woot:
I think Tango is capable of dubbling their output during the contest though... hope my fellow whiskey members have some hidden guns being loaded right now or we'll only be a speck of dust on the mirror after they pull away from us :sonic:
Now where are those :buddies: lottery tickets :buddies: :rofl:
he's still http://www.scootplace.net/smiles/original/151.gif it off...
Awake finally...Was over-served last night...:rofl:
Wow, our team did just shy of 800K...Who is this ThunderDuck ?
BTW, 4th gear is making a grinding noise...
i think i finaly got some of my gso's up and running. everything looks stable and cool running on all smp cores. now ive got one more rig to set up and ill see what we do tomorrow :D
Go skycrane go go go ...:up:
team XS has almost doubled their PPD in less than a month!! :shocked:
:sick:
can anyone guess who it is??
WFO or RR... think RR by seeing his fahmon shot...
Do I get a cookie?
Grey Goose...Here I come !!!
*I'm going to cheat brb*
Edit: no one in our team has that increase in the current eoc stats. Though eoc I think missed two updates already ( think that with the contest starting their timing again is perfect :poke: )
I guess you or ThunderDuck
nope, thats me... lol :D
Rise.. if that's you I'll :cord: you till you scream... just because you been running at less ppd then me when you can pull this :cord:
:slapass: all you slackers who been holding out for a contests sake :rofl: What you like, stats or the fact that you're helping to kick Cancer's but! Lol I actually don't mind either way, but it does hurt my feelings abit sorry :(
Edit: Skycrane must be joking... are you??? :up:
Well, you'll know who it is when the next chart comes out :rofl:
How bout a clue, what Team are they on?:confused:
Woot...Woot 8,000,000 & my Lime pie back...Ok ThunderDuck, backoff !:rofl:
DAK1640 will have to take a week off, he has been charged with driving while intoxicated... :rofl:
You guys... remind me I need to ask santa to include some cookies for all of you :rofl:
I'm very honord to be amongst you people :wtf:
45min to next EOC update!
Quote:
Update: Current
10.26.08, 9am CDT
Time Now: 11:15am
Next Run: 45 min
Bah you ruined the surprise.. now I don't have to F5 eoc 45 minutes :down: ;)
My MSI K9A2 bit the dust :( :shakes:
The heatsink over the mosfet area was seriously red hot (guess it didn't like 300FSB?) RMA tomorrow.
That means I'm 4 GPU's + SMP client down for around a week :mad:
This had to happen on race day!
I just lost a C2D, not sure what has happened yet, might be the PSU since it is just a pieced together rig out of old parts. The PSU is an old 20 pin with adapter, it has been working fine for a few months, I went to restart it and now it just keeps cycling trying to boot, tried different RAM and no go. Tried another old 20 pin PSU and no go, tried another video card and no go. It may be the MB...
or the cpu... any beeps at all? If not take the cpu out and boot, if it beeps then your cpu is screwed :down:
So far the hardware is holding up fine. After a trouble free day yesterday some machines have gone on an EUE spitting binge. :down: Can't wait for the next core.
Arrrggghhh...I was going for personal best and learned my son took my PC to someone's house...There goes 7.5K ppd...:(
Lol well that's better then mine trying to stick a pen down a fan hole or drop a chain in there ( remember that :rofl: )
I hear all day long, "Do you think my CPU is dead?" My answer is always no. In seven years of fixing god only knows how many thousands of computers, I have only replaced two 939 CPUs, one AM2 CPU, and never had to replace a 775 CPU. CPUs basically don't fail unless your power supply catches on fire, your house gets hit by lightning, or you overvolt the hell out of them, and I have never seen one come DOA.
Tell that to my E6300 ;)
Though I must admit that was abit my own doing.. mobo not supported properly and I just got a ss from Luke here which I wanted to run on my 6800le. What happend I think was that I pushed the gfx into the slot with to much force or something, as when I flipped on the psu, everything died.
Cpu dead, board dead, gpu not dead though ( and boy was I mad, it was the cheapest part of the entire setup ). Upon closer inspection, if I had the board in two hands and just tried to bend it a lil, you could hear the pcb was actually damaged and the must have been some internal traces damaged. The cpu never booted again just as the board. The psu was blown to, think the mobo short circuited.
So, I have killed a s775 cpu, even if it was in a way you wouldn't see in 'normal' life ;)
Honestly, if you aren't overvolting your CPU than I don't think it can die without the PSU taking itself and the motherboard out. Even then, when I see a dead PSU and motherboard I don't even order a CPU unless a new PSU and motherboard don't POST and everything else works in another system. I have most socket spare CPUs but I usually don't break them out to test because the CPUs just always work.
Believe me I treid the cpu in 3 diffrent boards, no post at all. One thing I need to try is to freeze it though, seems to help with dead ram might help the cpu... still got it in a drawer upstairs, might even still be in the dead board since they 'belong' together :rofl:
Just think about it, psu dead and mobo dead, not hard to imagine how many volts that cpu might have gotten when the rest blew.
Well.... my 9600BE wasn't DOA but might as well have been. Was all screwed up from day one. Replacement is perfect though. That was my first CPU that ever had any issues from the factory, and the only CPU that got fried was when a surge blew up my old pentium 133MHz. Ever seen a game suddenly stop spitting graphics at you and start spitting all the hexadecimal coding at you on the screen instead? :rofl:
That's AMD forya :rofl::ROTF::rofl: :p:
I've had two bad CPUs out of all that I owned - 1 intel, 1 AMD. I've had far more AMD chips than intel chips, so for me, the percentage of bad intel chips per number of intel chips owned is much higher than the percentage of bad AMD chips per number of AMD chips owned ;) :p:
Maybe the dry desert heat keeps our CPUs nice and operational. :up:
I have never had a bad CPU and I never see them with the newer generation sockets.
I'm pushing buttons. :poke:
for my desktops I was an AMD man all through the k5, k6 days and x2 days.. I didn't switch to intel until my Q6600 bonanza last year (starting Oct 07)....
laptops though I just buy whatever is a good deal and on sale...
Hey you don't all have to go quiet :poke:
:rofl:
Never had a bad chip. I ran my q6600 @ 1.55v on water for about 1 year before i updated my bios and then 3.78 ghz wasn't a go anymore, so Its "underclocked' to 3.6ghz. What do you need to kill these quads, 1.6v+ 24/7? lol
I remember Vacum tubes...Way B4 the PC...
OK Racers....
START YOUR ENGINES !
Ok getting em cranked up, here is one... http://s135.photobucket.com/albums/q...UCK2-10-07.flv
Got to work on this one a little http://s135.photobucket.com/albums/q...=CDL_TRUCK.flv
Holy :banana::banana::banana::banana: RR :D
yeah, ccm is great. I've ordered quite a few of their roasted beans. my fav are the espresso and columbian roast. the espresso comes in kind of moist sometimes and it hard on the grinder, but it's really good. the columbian roast comes in drier, not quite as strong, with more of a nutty flavor, and never clogs the grinder. it's a toss up between those 2 when I order.. but you always get gourmet coffee bean quality, roasted within days of ordering, and at those prices! I haven't bought bagged gourmet coffee in a store since I found them. plus in a store you never know how long those beans have been sitting up in the bin... with ccm it's always roasted a couple days before it pops up your doorstep.
I am ordering the Columbian Roast (based on Mikey), Expresso Roast & French Roast...5Lbs of coffee for only $9.24 shipping fee. :up:
Yes, I did have too much GG yesterday, I lost track of what day it was...:rofl:

Wow, FoxTwat is off to a strong start...:clap:
Mike, you missed hotwaxisbad, added to team whiskey
Wow... WFO took off already, you sure he didn't jump the light?
Btw.. I'm just 16xx? WTH... guess having my rig reboot itself ( whatfor idk? ) yesterday cost me 50% of my normal ppd :rofl:
I'm hoping I'll not be the kaphuis this race :yepp: Well next year I'll hopefully be around 20K ppd, not a heavy hitter but hopefully enough to stay in the top 30 ;)
I'll fix it hotwax, just give me a bit to edit the spreadsheet and output new graphs.
Me : Objection !
Judge : What for ?
Me : I request that WFO is removed from the "Plane Crash Fail" Team and is transfered to Whisky Team
WFO's Lawyer : That's proposterous !
Me : *Gunshot*
Judge : Well when the defence has nothing to say ; I approve this objection
So WFO pack your suburbans and come here ! I demand your 100K Score !
Sorry WFO, Kondik knows people in high places. It's either move along to Whiskey or an IRS audit...
Lol Kondik :rofl::rofl::rofl:
I agree though, let him come to Whiskey :up:
ok, hotwaxisbad is on the board...
Wow, look at yesterday's output...Mike, better leave for work now so you aren't late...
Penalty to WFO
WFO was caught with over inflated tires and (2) Nitrous buttons. Now that's against Halloween Rules (#12 that I haven't posted yet). Geez, some people will do anything to their racers huh? Now 50% of your 1st weeks output goes to Team Vodka:rofl:
Whiskey :fact: :horse:
:hehe:
Dak, you and that damn vodka, were on team Whiskey.... :D
Looks like I can't send anything to the F@H server right now. Very interesting.............
At least I have 3 cards still folding for the time being. :p:
http://fah-web.stanford.edu/serverstat.html
Allot of servers are having issues :(
as usual, whenever team XS ramps up our production for a small contest, we always break the servers that they use.... why is that ?? :D
Its working now. :D
Also, there is a subnet which is having problems all week, if your assignment/collection server is on the x.x.122.x subnet, expect slow up and downloads and not responding servers. They said they will fix it this week by moving some servers around.
We got screwed last night. Starting with the 20:00 Pacific update (that's when I noticed) the updates started running an hour late. ( Old daylight savings?) 25K of today's output should have recorded last night. The whole team was shorted 1 update. :shakes:Too, it became almost impossible to get work. I've got 5 gpu2s idle right now. Way to go Stanford!!! :clap: :down::down:
On another note... Gooooooo Foxtrot!!!! :D
a personal milestone...broke the 20k production barrier.
All for team Foxtrot LoL! :yepp:
im looking from anywhere 25-30kppd out of all mine, when they are all up and running :)
i wish i knew... i have absolutly no idea about any sort of programing... im more of a hardware replacement guy myself...
kinda like saying im a mechanic, but the only thing i know how to do is replace a broken part, not diagnose the problem its self..
now if someone could make a file that has my name team, and all the flags and stuff for a gpu client on vista 32, vista 64 and server 2008 64 and have all the stuff working in it so all ive got to do is runt he file, id be a happy man :)...
at least for folding
now as you can probably tell by most of my posts i have no idea at all aobut servers and all that other stuff that goes on ....
but my biggest question is this, its 2008 weve had computers for at least 50 years, is it that difficult to build a server that would be able to work correctly 24/7 without breaking down ???? i mean seriously .....
if my crane broke down as much as these servers are down, none of you would ever have an office to work in :D lol :ROTF:
DAMN. I forgot to add myself to a team/ Started last night right? Can i still ad myself? Won't produce much... but maybe 2-4k per day.
SparkyJJO... you flipped a coin the last time for me... will you do it now also? Heads = W. Tails = Second flip. 2nd flip: Heads = T Tails = F.
tails.....heads
Riptide is on Tango
i just fliped my coin riptide, it said heads.... thats team W for you :)
We need to pick it up Whiskey!! Get off of our drunk asses and get some points up or we are going to get clobbered by the looks of it.
yes i definatly agree mak...
np rr i had thout that...
I guess I'm down for this. Throw me on Whiskey. What else do I need to do for this?
catawalks, added to whiskey...Thx:up:
Skycrane, PM me if you really need some GPU help...
