my gtx295 and gts250 consistently had pie befor the 295 died. I don't think it's just fermi at play
Send one 295 my way and I can get it up within an hour of arrival. :up:Quote:

BTW - found a place in Cali. 4 blocks from the beach, 3 miles from work and they were naive enough to include utilities... :ROTF:
@ WhiteFireDragon - Great job and thanks! Off again.
Well hopefully the SR2 will be out any day now and I hope its not cursed with the same problem as the past evga boards have. They hoppin and poppin for 180k a day I hope. Wow is your apartment management going to be in for a suprise. :rofl: Hope you just don't run into the same problems I have had in the past with overloading circuit breakers :ROTF: BTW 4x 9800GX2's and 3x GTX295's do not run on a 15A breaker haha.Quote:

and you don't want to post pie as a link directly to the DC stats site because it will change as that site updates :sofa:Quote:

we were all n00bs at one point in time ... you are doing fine and we appreciate the zeal and determination you bring to the team :up:
Unfortunately I don't think I have enough hardware to overload it, nor will i have the money to get (much) more anytime soon.Quote:

One pie coming up!
Dunno if i might get already pie with only 1 gtx 470 running the grid. If not then the 3 gt 240 that are comming could help :D
:welcome: glad you joined the team!
The 470 might do it all by itself but certainly once you add the 3x240 you will be eating pie :up:
Are you putting the 240s all on the same mobo?
yeap, if its doable i will all put them on my msi p55 gd65 with my i5 750 on wcg.
well, my output will go down massively. Appears there are no more Linux WUs for Fermi, so only my gts 250 is still crunching.
No more windows WU's either I'm out of work :(Quote:

unfortunately that doesn't mean i get pie... :shakes:
You guys are just to xtreme for that to happen. :clap:
All moved in and back to business Otis?
What's the going rate for pie these days? I'm making around 40k a day right now, and have a gtx 480 on the way. It's been a while since I have had a taste.
40k + gtx480 will give you pie for sure :up:Quote:

Well you're showing us all a clean pair of webbed feet on WCG, so that makes you a crazy crunching goose :ROTF:
Figured I'm gonna be #2 at GPUGRID for sometime now, so paddling my way up on WCG. :up:
yeah my pie up there is gtx260, gt240, and gtx470 :up:
yep, should be able to do pie most days - Internet here sucks keep going out for a few hours at a time and the card goes idle. :shakes:Quote:

There it is, congrats pie eaters! :up:
Middle of the pie is much too crowded :clap:
I need to get another card up and running.
I'm thinking a pure gpugrid machine.
I already have ram, WinXP, old HDD, and a 295
so it shouldn't hurt too much to get an i3-530, H55 mATX, and psu
... anyone have extras they are looking to get rid of :rofl:
http://i48.tinypic.com/2exral3.png
Wow - hedge. That's some pretty nice pie ya got there. :up:
http://i49.tinypic.com/soye7a.png
Sweet stuff ya guys got there. :p:
You would have to pry my i-3 530 from my cold dead hands. It makes a solid low power file server with a few raid cards installed. Run WCG just fine too.Quote:

Sorry I missed the pie yesterday, lost internet AGAIN. (5th day in a row of little to no internet)
AT&T got the opportunity to hear my lovely opinion of their service for over an hour though...
Oh, and corporate should be getting a letter tomorrow. :rofl:
I put the 295 with the 285 in the same rig so they can have a nice little threesome :bananal::banana:
I went this direction instead of a new board so I can save up for 2 of the 6 core CPUs coming this fall and that oh so nice Corsair 1200 coming out next month. :)
I will own lemon pi~ :devil:
Beware!
Once you have tasted PIE", the force is strong. :eek:
http://i48.tinypic.com/2z3wc50.png
And the lemon pie it is SC! :up:
Just by the hair of my chinny chin chin :ROTF:
It was luck ... pie eaters 4-6 were only seperated by 2k :clap:
Tonight should be a little better :yepp:
SC, i know it might be hard to answer this, but do you see any hinder in production when having two different cards on the same system as opposed to separating the cards into different rigs?Quote:

I just told BOINC to go from 4 cores to 3 and my cpu utilization is up around 88% instead of 75%. :shrug:
http://i49.tinypic.com/33zfgvs.png
Well SC, it's workin for ya. :up:
i got two gts250 comming, and two idle gtx260 almost ready to put back on the grid. trying to take SC's lemon pie :p:
Now only if you put forth this much effort for WCG :DQuote:

The best you can do for a fermi card is to set the SWAN_SYNC environ variable to 0 and then tell BOINC Manager to use 1 less thread than you really have. Still not as good as XP or Linux but much better than just straight up Win7.
its already done and my gtx 470 is watercooled, so i will be able to get better shader clock hopefully and more ppd.
:clap: I look forward to seeing your PPD raising the roof :up:Quote:

Dang, pie is only getting tougher...
yeah saw that today 91k and i only got the kiwi pie
well with a lot of new people and GPU grid getting more popular on here, the pie standard has increased a lot (which is a good thing :p:)
Ah, my first piece in a while. Should get a bit better though. For now my GTX 275 on linux seems to be my workhorse still. My 8800 gt errors out constantly and my gtx 480 was in a PC that kept BSOD'ing. I got that figured out now. I had to lower the voltage on my I-7 and lower the overclock to 3.6. It seems that my Thermaltake DH-103 HTPC case with it's 2 120 mm fans do not quite cool as well as the antec 1200 that it was in. :rofl:
Everyone's runing on the 257.X drivers right???

what happened to 123bob?? he just disappeared from the pie
Yeah. ;)Quote:

I know with WCG he went to other tech forums to get things rolling ... take a look at TechPowerup ... they might have had one or two crunchers before he lit a fire under the whole forum!
Eh, I sure hope he can get a good one started... Would love to see someone hot on our heels!Quote:

with bob (hopefully temporarily) gone, now it's a fight for the lemon pie since that blueberry pie is way out of reach to take from snowcrash :p:
just curious, is there only a certain time in the day to post pie? is this based on when the gpugrid server gets updated or is it based on that one free-DC stats site? i'm guessing a good time is when it's almost midnight (PST)?
Yeah... SC has stepped up his game of late.Quote:
Originally Posted by WhiteFireDragon

I am only running 3 cards.
It should not be too difficult to give me a run for my money.
... of course those three cards are a 285, 295, and a 480 :rofl:
look like i will need a couple of dozen more gt 240 if i want to get more pie
Wow. my 2 470s and 1 250 placed me 4th?! Go Linux!
ah there's bob. well that was a short vacation haha
hmmm pinneapple pie is delicious
that looks more like a sour orange pie, which is grrross. you want the cherry or lime pie, which i know none of us can get (except stonageman and dak). go for the blueberry pie instead :p:Quote:

well for that i need to first pay off y loan for my first car and then i might get my dad and brother to get as a christmas gift from my 2 dedicated cruncher (i3 530 at 4.2ghz and hd 5770 watercooled and i5 750 at 4.1ghz and 3 gt 240)to replace their dell pc and then get a i7 950 cruncher or maybe look for a mp solution( maybe the cheap guy sr-2 with 2 e5630 overclocked to 4ghz each and a dozen of gt 240). So with the couple more gtt 240 or maybe 1 or 2 gtx 285 i could get better pie.Quote:

Great work everyone :toast:

The 480 off the grid for now as I started having problems just before GPUGrid switched back to 6.05. It now errors on everything GPUGrid gives it but the card istself is OK ... something odd going. After switching drivers around, resetting project etc, I still don't have it working properly again ... yet... but I will!
http://i29.tinypic.com/2rep9wm.png
And sorry about the lack in pie updates lately... my internet is less reliable than I thought possible.
Hey, I can honestly say AT&T passed even my expectations now... :shakes:

lol thanks for the correction Zloyd. my first taste of blueberry pie :woot:

Grats pwolfe on taking #10 :up:
I cannot keep here anymore. Hopefully getting a GTX460 first of month but I'll never break 100k. Jest do what I can. With 95 degree heat here having to shut down machines during the day, will be fall before I can even do 60k+ although the 460 should help.
My hats off to all who brave the heat and electric bills! :)
Why that grats? I've been higher than 10! I think I must have a machine down or something.
OOOH! That number 10 slot. cool, thanks for grats. Its been a race to beat the wife's financial senses with the electricity bill.
You over took me in overall points. You are now #10 and I am #11. When you crush someone and leave them with no pie, and ruin their whole life BTW, you should at least pay attention. :rofl::ROTF:Quote:

i should be back sometime this week in the daily ie group as i got my 3 gt 240 rig running on linux 64bit thanks to the thread How to run gpugrid on a stick at the gpugrid forum but is there any ways i can make linux to not give a full cpu thread to each gpugrid working unit like in windows xp 64 bit cause right now the i5 750 can only work one unit on wcg because of the three gpugrid workunit running.
I'm not exactly sure how it's done, but my linux(ubuntu) machine doesn't give a core up for my gpu. I still have 16 cores crunching away.Quote:

There it goes. :up:
Snow Crash can't help you with linux as not only does he know nothing about linux but he is also realizing that the last old POS DVD player he keeps recycling in crunchers may have died and he now has to buy one just so he can even try to set up a "cruncher on a stick" rig.

Crazy pie eaters...
There ya go! :up:
