Team 36362 XS Folding Roster

[GripS]

I'm in. Sorry it took me so long to pull my head outta my arse and put my computers idle time to good use.

[coo-coo-clocker]

real good to have ya - no matter what!

[Polizei]

Add me to the roster too... Bacon1187 for the name though.

[Kingcarcas]

Welcome aboard mates, take one

[spider_d]

PS3 24/7 and my current rig (see signature) F@H SMP client. Still working on stabile OC, but slowly getting toward 3.6.

Howdy

boingg!!! off the 70 second rev limiter again....

[spider_d]

I'm folding project 2665 on the SMP client now and wondering if I can increase the spped from about 13 minutes per percent. Also, I read the thread about 2665 and don't fully understand the issues, or how I am affected by them. Is good science still ahppening regardless of the points?

And SparkyJJO, What is the 70 sec rev limiter that I keep seeing you mention?

[Sparky]

Good science is still happening, yes. It is just a larger, longer unit and the points they assigned to it end up being less per day than some others. I just sigh a bit since I do like to see the numbers go up but the science is important and it is still happening

The "rev limiter" I keep referring to is the the minimum time between posts. Many sites have 30 seconds between posts, but XS a couple months ago went to 70 seconds. I tend to read fairly quickly and I can type quite fast so when I have a few different threads open or heck just browsing around quickly I tend to bounce off of that a lot. I just blame overclocking my brain and fingers too much for the site to handle

[spider_d]

I thought the post limiter had something to do with it. Thanks for the info.

Do you know a good SMP client guide for a novice. I have it folding, but I don't know how to use the cmd line stuff and have had trouble finding a guide. My WU is at 50% now and I am hoping to fold solid for a while. I feel like my stats are terrib;e even with the SMP running and the PS3 24/7 folding for a full day. Am I expecting to much or is 70 points per day going to be it?

[Sparky]

With the SMP you'll get much more than 70 PPD, much much more. Just when you first start getting things going the stats take a while to come up to full running points. You'll be well over 1000 PPD, closer to 2000 I'm sure especially as you bring those clocks up!

CHeck in my sig, I have some setup guides linked, I believe there is an SMP setup guide in there

[RAW-Raptor22]

Is SMP stable now? It was eating WUs before and I feel nervous leaving my 2x text.

[coo-coo-clocker]

Not having any problems here w/ it. I'm running dual SMP on my dedicated quad cruncher and single SMP on my main rig.

[G0ldBr1ck]

If the team could use somemore CPU's crunching for the team, piont me in the right direction and Ill be happy to help. Have 2 quadcore desktops and a C2D laptop with 6x HD3870's between the 2 desktops (If you can Fold with them also?) that run 24/7. Never done anyfolding so might need a little info.

[Sparky]

We always welcome more

You can fold with the HD3870's for sure, however i'm not sure on how to set it up or anything since I don't have one of those cards. For just CPU folding though, if you look in my signature I have a link to setup guides

[G0ldBr1ck]

ok thanks, Ill see if I can get them set up by tomarow.

[Sparky]

ok thanks, Ill see if I can get them set up by tomarow.

Sure thing, post up any questions and we'll help you out

[G0ldBr1ck]

Anyone else happen to know if you can fold a ati gpu and cpu at same time? and if so, what about 3 gpu's and a cpu?

[Sparky]

Each GPU client requires a CPU core.

[G0ldBr1ck]

ok, last question then (I think). so that means basicly I can eather use my 3 gpu's or just the 9850 phenom. wich would do more?

[Sparky]

I think the 3 GPUs would do more. You could actually do 3 GPUs and one standard CPU client to use the last core on your quad.

[G0ldBr1ck]

cool, have 2 systems just like that. looking forward to putting them to use.

[Sparky]

Sounds good! I know some here use the new GPU client, so I'm sure they can help if you have any issues

[G0ldBr1ck]

they dont seem to have the gpu2 client for vista at the moment. says there working out some bugs so guess ill be using cpu only for awile

[ThunderDuck]

Works fine for me in vista64. gpu2 for nvidia is still being worked on.

el cheepo 3850 gets me 1100+ ppd

[SocketMan]

Anyone else happen to know if you can fold a ati gpu and cpu at same time? and if so, what about 3 gpu's and a cpu?

Yea you can but not with Vista atm
Unless they fixed it it's 1 gpu client per "Vista" machine.
Also Cat.8.5 DOES NOT work for folding, use 8.3 or 8.4
I've also found that when 2 or 3 cards are folding on 1 machine the total
ppd is a lot less then using 3 cards on 3 machines.Mind you that was
on the MSIK9a2 and 9600be @ 2500mhz. Higher cpu freq. should bring higher ppd

Maybe I should make a gpu2 thread? got lots of picks
