    You should be anywhere from 15-20k PPD, depending on the WU.

    Unless you're doing -bigadv?

    Run it with -bigadv if you plan on running it for over 20 hours a day.

    I'm running it with -bigadv, since it'll be on 24 hours, bar the odd bit of Kings Bounty.

    But what does -bigadv do?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 555 ✭✭✭zodac


    As long as it's not a P2684, should be 30k+.

    I used 6 or the CPU's 8 (virtual) cores, so 80% usage is giving me 19.9K PPD, so I've a grand total of 47.6K+ overall which seems okay.

    Awesome. :D What kind of CPUs do you guys have?

    Just a load of 2X's but 11 of them running at once should be nice. I doub't he'd let me throw up a load of clients on our cluster. Infact i doubt he'd let me do any of this to be honest as our IT department are pretty strict. But ive got 2 I7's which are heavilly overclocked at home, an X6 and a new sandybridge cpu arriving tomorrow. Also have a set of 5870's and 6950's that can be used. Did they ever release a good client for ATI cards, and do they support crossfire?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 555 ✭✭✭zodac


    Not yet I'm afraid. We're getting close though; PG announced they were aiming for a beta release in Q1. From what I hear from some of the beta testers, the core for ATi is working fine, it's just the client that's got some issues that need sorting out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,258 ✭✭✭RangeR


    I've installed the basic CPU client on 2 or 3 more computers. I wouldn't expect much but it will bump us up by a bit over time.

    That's a serious amount of kit at home. Maybe I should throw the towel in over here and join Komplett!

    No complaints about a few extra hundred PPD. ;)

    I'm glad to see rockal back up on top. Also, we have a lot of red up there, nice job everyone!

    sorry for the invasion Z. :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 555 ✭✭✭zodac


    My Q6600 hasn't been Folding all week, otherwise there'd be another red up there. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17 hoth17


    I noticed you weren't one of them... :mad:


    but you will be forgiven as long as it is up and running by the fold-a-thon. :D

    edit: my 970 is only getting me 30k right now at 4.2. :confused: I need to get some fine tuning done on that client before tomorrow.

    Yeah, no -bigadv for a while either. :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17 hoth17


    I know, its been almost a week since I have dropped one. :(
    And, now that I am up and running, I get a massive p2684.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 555 ✭✭✭zodac


    Better than SMP at least. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17 hoth17


    you're right, I should be complaining. So, whats up with the q6600? I take it your having no trouble with your current clock speeds, surely its not unstable at those massive speeds you run it at. :p

    //not making fun of, I respect that, and only that, Dell :D

    Been running something else the last few days, and no enough cycles for the SMP client. Unless I don't mind losing bonus points. :p

    I should be done this time tomorrow, and hopefully that'll leave me enough time to get a WU done by Friday. Maybe even two if I avoid the 67xx's and all goes well. :)

    Only on rare occassions; normally no-one notices my poor PPD getting worse though. :p

    I'm guessing things didn't go quite to plan?
