Nehalem,One cpu to rule them all!

[alucasa]

From memory:
dual opty,8 core, = app 11-12,000 a day in WCG
That's it in a nutshell..

Well, I (still) have two Barcelona chips which run at 1.8ghz. That score is exactly what my dual Barcelona rig produced. Now that Shanghai is out, and with a good improvement in ghz, an affordable one costs less than 200 USD at 2.2ghz, so I assume a dual Shanghai rig can produce 20,000 a day in WCG.

I want a dual Shanghai, but to be honest, I absolutely LOATHE their nforce 3600 chipset based boards. They SUCK.

I agree on Shanghai. I think I was remembering either your numbers or Twilyth's..
Heck, My socket 775 Asus P5K Premium that is a what? 18 month old board, is pulling over 21K a day with that X3380 in it at 4171 on air..
Granted, that is a monster chip but 21K a day on air on 4 cores is getting into Nehalem range..

How are you getting 21k a day? My q9550@4ghz only gets anywhere from 12-(16 on a great day)

My i920@3.4ghz only gets 14-18 on avg. occasionally around 20 and for 1 day it got 24k. not sure what happened.

anyway; I would imagine my 9550 would have at least as much crunching power as you xeon

EDIT: I wonder if it has anything to do with FAH on ati GPU which utilizes 1 core; which would slow production for WCG?

Getting 21K a day from a monster X3380 cpu..
Think the next step up from a Q9650.
Running at 4171mhz on WCG

Nice; I wish mine looked like that. I dont even get that with my I920. need to get that thing clocked up a bit (once I get off my lazy butt to do it).

What projects do you run? I run aids, cancer, and drugs. on vista ultimate 64.
I guess the important thing is I am helping out and slowly moving up the ladder!
