I have 4 rigs going 2 old socket 478's at work and a core i5 and a phenom 2 x4 @ home.

Lmfao everyone has those moments but great!
I would really love to hit top 30 sometime.... We have the firepower (i think) in this forum but we dont have the personel to put it to use

I think talking people into using v7 on their Windows pcs would help. It seems to automatically use graphic cards which would help quite a bit.

i might join back in
i could at the very least put this semidecent work computer to work lol
i could try putting my rig back into it and see how it affects the heat situation and power consumption

edit: folding on the work pc is a no go, cant install the client they have these things locked down tighter than fort knox lol

Shouldn't install on your work computer without permission if you don't own it...

the local bosses wouldnt care. lol
the IT guys at the home base would care, they wouldnt give me permission even if i did ask.

It's your choice, but from the FAQ:
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/FAQ-main#ntoc9

I'm not trying to discourage you from folding, we appreciate the help. It's just a risk you are taking (and there's a moral consideration, but I'm sure you've thought through that).

man, you are getting a too worked up about this
i tried to install it here and couldnt, i quit there, im not asking anyone higher up if i can, and im not trying to find a way around it, its cool, this thing probably wouldnt put out that much anyways, its an e7500 with integrated graphics lol

I was folding a long time on multiple machines but they changed the electric and the tier rates and my electric bill was getting to over $180. Now that I've quit folding, my bill is around $100 a month.

Welcome to California.

**** im
Happy i still live at homr lol and mybe 1 machine?

This is where you need to look at efficency.

A a gold psu, a low power cpu do wonders.

the 4ps are drawing 500W for 300k ppd
a 2600k and 560ti are drawing 350-400W for about 50k ppd

You just need to tailor your foldintg for your power situation.

I personally don't gpu fold anymore, 220W for 15k ppd isn't power smart, especvially with a temp of 80C when its 31C outside.

[Sneevly]

Yea GPU folding isn't power efficient, and IMO can shorten it's life by a lot relative to CPU folding. Out of me and my two brothers I go through the most video cards easy, lol. But I've got two full cover water blocks on them now (GTX 570 x2 @ 900mhz) so they stay around 46-50C folding, with the capacitors screeching at me. I think that's what makes that noise.. 4p is by far the best but it's hard to make one that's not above $2,000

no way could I go 4p thats the thing.. I can spend like 100 or 200 not 2k

[un4givn85]

does 6 hours for project 8020 sound right for my gtx570?
estimated ppd is 23k
and my 2600k is only pulling 14k, does that seem right

[PatonB]

No it's not, the 2600k is way under.

you need to firstly show your f@h settings, V7 or v6.34?

You should be running 30+k ppd on it.

[un4givn85]

im running v7 whatever the newest version is on the stanford website.
what settings are you looking for.
its running smp 8, project 7646, what else do you need?
