    So, I decided to give my adventure with DC another spin after about 2 years and decided to join noble effort and started crunching work units for XS last Saturday

    I'm still trying to figure out what my output may be and I guess I'll need to wait a few more days. So, currently I'm running 24/7:

    --> 1 x Core 2 Quad @ 3.6GHz, 4GB RAM
    --> 2 x Core 2 Quad @ 3.2GHz, 4GB RAM each - I'll bump 'em to 3.6GHz some time soon... I think they should handle it.
    --> 1 x Core 2 Duo @ 3.6Ghz, 4GB RAM

    I think that should net around 50-60k on average, but I'm not sure. I'm probably not going to switch to 64-bit unless I really get motivated, though.

    Greets guys!
    Many Thanks and from what I've read here in the last 2 years I wasn't exaggerating at all!
    The Quads should do app 15K each/day at 3600
    The dual at maybe 1/2 that so figure right about 50K a day.
    That ain't bad at all..

    Its about time Michal I've been bugging you for how long Just kidding!

    Thanks for coming back to the team and I see you come bearing plenty of quads

    Just remember Mr. Memory Guru Mem speed and latency mean nothing in WCG. I've tried testing several different ways and received the same results from running stock 800MHz 5-5-5-14 to 950MHz 3-3-3-8 (Dominator CL3's). WCG is based on raw GHz. So, the higher you can clock those without errors the better. Also, great idea on the x64 so far plenty of us are seeing a nice increase in production from switching to x64 based OS's.

    Anyway, if you have any questions please just ask

    I think it is my fault...

    I have my new Q6600/IP35-E crunching. However, I had to disconnect the CAT5 from my front room switch, temporarily, in order to install BOINC-WCG and download WUs.

    But, I had to disconnect it, letting it crunch unconnected since last night. I would have connected it in time to dump, but had to work overtime so I couldn't. I figure that was probably close to 15,000 points. Gonna go dump it now. Probably out of, or close to out of, work by now.

    If it ( be beat by less than 15K points ) happens again today it is my fault. Just got home a few minutes til 6; hooked it up right away and dumped 26 WUs but probably didn't get 'em in for today.

    Gonna have to find a better solution. I have room in my computer room ( and room on that room's switch ), but need to put it into a case first. Working a lot, then by the time I get home I don't feel like doing much.

    But I need my coffee table back, and the machine is set up just like I like it.

    Would a little 4 port Linksys 10/100 switch help? I think I have one tucked away. Got to send you those HS so could just include in the box.

    No, no. I'm cool. I have things daisy-chained from my bedroom where the cable modem and router are located. Aside from what gets distributed in this room I have two runs coming out of my 4 port router, going up into the ceiling, then down into an 8 and 16 port switch in the computer room. From the 16 port switch I have a 100 ft' run running the length of the house and hooking up to a 4 port switch in my dining room. The problem is I already have 4 machines hooked up to that, and I don't want to disturb them.

    So, I built it and set it up on the coffee table, temporarily. Once it is good to go ( in this case meaning putting it inside a case ), I have a spot for it and a connection for itin the computer room.

    Actually, since this is probably not the last time I'll be going through this process it wouldn't hurt to have it. I could then hook it up to one of my current dining room's 4 port and run a 25' cable from one of its' ports and another short one to the machine whose spot I temporarily stole. So, yeah, if it is not a big deal to you, throw it in the box.

    And, thank you, kind sir.

    Serlv, you must spend all day tripping over wires... :P

    Also, my Conroe really is quiet enough that my parents can't hear it now. 24/7, here I come.

    @ MotF Bane.

    Nah, it really isn't that bad. In the bedrooms most everything is out of the way.

    Now, in the dining room it gets a little tricky, when I have to go behind one of the two tables that I have rigs on. Careful steppin', for sure.

    Now that you mention it, though, I wonder how many yards, total, I have of various wire and cable.



    I have a five wire break-out cable that runs from one of the the dining room tables to the HDTV in the living room, as well as an audio cable that has to goeven a little further, to the receiver.

    Plus CAT5, plus power cords, plus meece, plus KBs, plus speaker wire, plus added dedicated circuits. It just goes on and on!
