Change those drivers ASAP, it sounds like you've got the dreaded Card Killer stuck fan bug! :eek:

You'd think they would have chosen a better name for it by now... :rolleyes:

Considering how much the word FSB likes to be thrown in anywhere possible, might I suggest....

CK-FSB? :pac:

challengemaster · 17-12-2010 03:46AM

It appears to have fixed itself with a reboot

It's now between 73-75C on full load

/edit: and getting cooler by the minute..

zodac · 17-12-2010 03:52AM

Thank God you posted that. Made me go check the Top 20 again, and saw I was over 1.5k PPD...

I had my 9800GT Folding for Boards for most of today.

A few extra k for the team today at least.

zodac · 27-12-2010 11:38PM

No, I did not wait to post this until I was in first; just a happy coincidence.

And keep an eye on that guy in 7th; seems shady...

BabyEater · 28-12-2010 12:55AM

Would be nice to get him folding for us as he done his 8,000 points in just 6 hours.

On another note, I should be seeing a boost in my PPD in a couple of days as I will be replacing one of my X2 5000s with an X4 630. Note sure what PPD they get but it should be a nice boost.

zodac · 28-12-2010 01:33AM

Aye, he's got a nice Fermi to share.

As for the X4, should get 4k comfortably, up to 9/10k depending on the OC.

Eh? How does one get 9/10k on an X4? Have a 125W 965BE myself- get 4k PPD when not folding with the GPU client. Biggest disincentive to fold with the SMP client is getting a WU requiring 24 hours+ of folding time over a few days.

zodac · 28-12-2010 05:26PM

Quad core CPUs get 9/10k PPD at 4Ghz (and when not Folding a P6701).

Solitaire · 28-12-2010 06:35PM

Closer to <8k even for an i5 quad at 4GHz, surely? Plus IIRC its even less for AMD chips as they have the same processing power as a Core2, Core-i are more efficient per clock cycle! So logically it would be more like <7k PPD for a Phenom quad @4GHz...

zodac · 28-12-2010 07:16PM

Nah... I'm going by old quad CPUs. A Q8200 and Q9550 @ 4Ghz got 9-10k PPD (this was before the P6701s though). And the AMD X4s were pretty much the same, at anywhere between 8-10k PPD.

Solitaire · 28-12-2010 07:19PM

Alas, times have moved on. By that same token my stock i5-760 should be getting ~8k PPD (slower but more powerful per clock). Instead it gets just under 6k PPD and my 3.33GHz C2D half that on average thanks to P67s

Not quite; like I said, the PPD values don't apply to P6701s. But get a P6020-P6024, or even one of the P605xs, and then they're still the same as before).

BabyEater · 29-12-2010 06:01PM

Have just received my X4 630 it is only an Athlon II and is at 2800MHz stock.

I have just done a bit of overclocking on it and have it at 3640MHz(stock volts).

I am running a 6701 WU as usual and it is working at just over 13mins a frame, this should be good for a bit over 5000 points per day.

Will have to do more overclocking and tinkering as it has more to give.

Solitaire · 29-12-2010 06:36PM

You should be close to 6k PPD with that as it is

Nice one

zodac · 29-12-2010 06:52PM

Nice; we're on the up.

Solitaire · 04-01-2011 11:08PM

WHAT THE-

I DON'T EVEN-

zodac · 04-01-2011 11:10PM

That's what you get for slacking.

Solitaire · 05-01-2011 12:21AM

I'm just aghast at hothie's score! :eek::D:P

zodac · 05-01-2011 12:31AM

Aye... a Fermi and a couple of -bigadv will do that.

Gonna miss him here when he heads back to OCN; it's making us real competitive.

Komplett-Tech: Ryan · 07-01-2011 12:57PM

I'm going to try and convince the boss here to allow me to install a client on all the office pc's here. They are nothing special, but it should be a few thousand PPD's. I wonder, is there a iphone or ipad add yet?

Spear · 07-01-2011 05:05PM

Any idea on how long it would take a new client to reach a steady output level and give a good idea of it's production?

Awesome.

What kind of CPUs do you guys have?

And no, no app for Folding on an iPhone/iPad... unless you were looking for a monitor or something?

3%... nVidia GPUs will be <5 mins, ATi GPUs will be ~15mins, dual cores will be up to 2 hours, quads will be up to an hour, and -bigadv client will be around 90mins to 2 hours.

Spear · 07-01-2011 05:54PM

I've a good lead on the rest of the country in BOINC credits, so I'll give it a few days of Folding and see how it goes. Installing Fermi clients is already needlessly fiddly though.

zodac · 07-01-2011 06:20PM

If you've only got one Fermi in a system, the systray client is a simple set it and leave it program. Just install it, enter your info, then let it run.

If you've got more than one GPU in a system though, and don't want to bother with the clients yourself, you can use this client manager:

I moved over the already started work/queue.dats from the pre-existing clients and it's running with those happily. It's predicting about 28k PPD from the GPU's and I'm still waiting to see how much it gets from the CPU.

iPhone/iPad would be useless unless it was for monitoring, their processors would take forever to complete a WU, and aside from that, the battery drain would be insane.... as if iPhone battery time isn't bad enough!

Just set HFM/etc to upload a web page every now and again... then save that as a bookmark on the phone

What CPU have you got, and at what speed?

Yup... got a guide for that:
