Hey guys what happened to the WCG and XS in general? I miss the activity here of the old days. But anyways, I started crunching again a bit till I get in trouble.
I want to introduce you to the slowest CPU folding 24/7...the Huawei Prism II with a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A5. Just a spare Android phone I got for free. Does anyone have anything slower? Let me tell you...it's on the heels of my Devils Canyon 4790K at 4.8ghz!
And why are Vishera (FX8320) CPU's sooooo slow? I guess I expected it though, was hoping it wouldn't be this ineffecient though. I downvolted and clocked it at 4ghz just to save power, but my work I5 laptop at 3.2ghz 2C/4T is actually a bit faster.
i had my singlecore atom cpu on it for a while it made like 45ppd.Originally Posted by Peen
LOL
and about XS there are a few threads about that, WCG isnt doing that bad, everyone else just picked their game up and we stayed the same.
This little crappy $50 (new) phone I don't think you can even say PPD with it, more like PPEOD (Points per every other day) since it takes about 25hrs to do one WU haha. My Nexus 5 is doing ok though
NKrader...I just moved from the couve actually...
awesome! you coming back to the crunching scene? we need some more point earners!This little crappy $50 (new) phone I don't think you can even say PPD with it, more like PPEOD (Points per every other day) since it takes about 25hrs to do one WU haha. My Nexus 5 is doing ok though

Yeah till I get in trouble. I'm in San Diego now so my electric bill is high.
What part of Vancouver are you in? Last place I lived was on Mill Plain. Was engaged to a girl that was an apartment manager there in Vancouver, but broke up with her so I moved haha
Welcome back! (Though I don't know if we ever met?)
One word of caution - watch your phone temps and don't keep it at 100% State of Charge all the time (Or even much of the time - it'll kill the battery). I ran it on a Galaxy S4 for just shy of a year whenever plugged in, and then left the phone plugged in whenever convenient (which was much of the time - sleeping, working at a desk, surfing the web, etc) and ended up killing my battery life. Another phone, Galaxy S3, also had similar issues - significantly reduced battery life.
Other than that, no hardware damage to think of, batteries simply aren't designed to be charged while hot or retain high SoC...
