WCG Stats Milestones

Hi Jaco...i gave it 6hrs+ small FFT's

your cpu should be stable , how about your memory ?
What memory settings and voltage do you use ?

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

Have you messed with ram timings maybe?

[vocch]

My mem is Geil pc6400 ultra running around 948mhz C5....vdimm 2.25v...it should be ok as have run memtest in past....i have just raised mch from 0.15 - 0.25 + fsb added 0.05 and NOW my vdimm is @ 2.25v....so see how it goes.

Hey Hey Hey!.....i got 10k woot!.

Congrats, next stop 100K

[vocch]

Too right movieman.

Too right movieman.

I remember starting, August 29,2006..and waiting, and waiting, and wondering where the hell were the points for all the work I was doing..and then in app 5 days it started to happen..
Next stop for me is 7 million I think and I only have 3 machines on the project in my name..It adds up..

[Shintai]

Next stop Movieman

You gonna be lucky to last the next week out!

That's some nice numbers dude!

I know, I really do know..

[ocZZZ]

ya, very nice

Zoob, first, try shutting off boinc about 10 seconds before you shut down your rig.

Also, if you are getting alot of error and invalid returns, your overclock may not be stable.

Shutting off BOINC before shutting down Windows got rid of the errors for me. Thanks!

Found the culprit...my mem is dieing 1 error in memtest....it needs 2.2vdimm to do 378mhz so not even the rated speed...as it should do 400mhz @ 2.1v....oh well what's geil like for rma?

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

so you found the culprit then?

[vocch]

so you found the culprit then?

Yes m8...although i've had to reduce my mem speed to get it stable....i've spent today priming and now @ 3.5ghz 8hrs small fft's stable!....so out of a bad thing came a good thing....i guess i'll get a few more point's to add on now lol.

I think most of us like to keep the vdimm low for 24/7 crunching.
Personally, I use 2.1vdimm max (+ fan) .

me 2nd to that. Killed bout 3 different pairs when I first crunching @2.2v

Well i think i need a new set lol. ...get 1 error @ 2.1v...they are rated up to 2.3v though...if it says working voltage 1.9v-2.3v does that mean they are ok? although it states on the sticks 800mhz @ 2.1v

Oh and thanks for letting me know.

[St3vil_68]

My "good" set are away playing the RMA game..got some crappy sticks in now. I think when my MB blew up it took the RAM with it.

[kik]

I did my first 10k points today.

[RSmura]

great job kik! keep up the good work!

oK guys...out with the bad and in with the good....now i got the bandwidth back with only 2.0vdimm + fan...with me new pc8500.

Thanks for the tips.

[Terru]

Hi Guys, I am a long time lurker here at XS, but I would just like to say that I think I just hit 500k points, and am looking forward to bringing more in! My name on WCG is Tian Rui, since Terru was already taken. I run WCG on my old p4 3.2ghz, an e6600 as well as an x2 3800+ and my own rig.

The other day I was at Montreal university neurological lab where my girlfriend is doing her PhD in neuroscience and I noticed Boinc WCG graffiti on the walls and filing cabinets, with the link to the webpage’s! It seems that the word has really spread!
