    Hit a WCG (World Community Grid) milestone? Post it here:

    Hey guys, just decided to swap my profile over to HardOCP as this team seems more active and engaged. Are 'we' currently involved in project specific competitions or any coming up? Bringing in two machines: 4x E-4650 Xeons 4x 6174 Opterons (Down right now CEP2 Killed its SSD over the last...

    BOINC

    Hey all. A little confused what team to change to if I wanted to start throwing points for HardOCP. There are two teams "HardOCP" and "[H]ard|OCP" is there a difference?

    BOINC

    Just thought I'd ask here, does anyone currently crunch with the AMD A10 7850K etc APUs? I'm assuming you can task the 4 cores and the GPU to BOINC and utilize the full apparent 800+ GFLOPs. Reason I'm asking is it's new toy season for myself and I'm thinking of doing something different...

    E5-4650 pricing?

    Australia, 22-24 cents / KWH here. Wow, you've got it cheap! Alright, I'll have a think about it before I pull the trigger... could just about build 2 more 6174 rigs for the same price.

    E5-4650 pricing?

    Well, I got my first 4P 6174 @ 2.5~ GHz up and running and now I'm addicted, I managed to get the 6174s for $150 USD / Each so I think I got a pretty good deal.... How does the E5-4650s @ $540 USD compare? Should I jump on them or opt for more 617Xs at around the $250~ range? Going the Intel...

    Supermicro H8QGi/6 and H8QGL Next Generation OC BIOS

    Thanks for this guys, (Even if I get a big [H] on boot up now :P) Another 4P 6174 @ 2.64Ghz up and running. Might try to push harder at the end of the week. People had much luck pushing these higher? Perfect little heater for some of these 3 degree nights in Australia at the moment. Just...

    Hardware you would avoid for DC'ing and why

    Agree with the Patriot Autobahn but because I got a couple of these to run on my dedicated GPU rigs instead of buying a HDD as they were cheap.... well the transfer rate must be HORRID. Took overnight to install windows, and rebooting would easily take 20 minutes ~ not even exaggerating.

    NVidia 326.19 beta drivers and folding - first impressions.

    Wow, odd. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact I've BIOS flashed mine to disable Turbo boost etc and run at a certain Mhz/Vcore? Who knows. Out of curiosity I'll try it for 24 hours on my two GPU rigs and report back! :)

    NVidia 326.19 beta drivers and folding - first impressions.

    I'm seeing opposite results on all my 780s. As you said the GPU usage doesn't seem to be 100% for me anymore, old drivers it would 98% ~ until 2% checkpoint and drop. Now it seems to go from 91-98% all the time.

    P7810

    Just a heads up about Bad_State_Detected. I was getting them every so often like everyone else when I was running with the 780s Overclocked to 1110 Mhz. I've now reflashed the cards with a modified BIOS that disabled Turbo-Boost and fixes the voltage and have the cards running permanently at...

    TITAN/780 - Ubuntu Folding

    When listing the GFX cards it returns NVIDIA TITAN for all 4 cards even though they're 780s. I assume that's a GK110 issue. Installing like below works, but on reboot all GUI is missing CTRL+ALT+T works but errors keep poping up or windows appearing outside the screen. Also are they are the...

    TITAN/780 - Ubuntu Folding

    Hi Guys, I'm trying to get my dedicated folding box to run with my 780s in Ubuntu but I get no option for driver installation in proprietary drivers and installing them manually with the .run file seems to break my UI completely (I'm Linux noob) If I dual boot with my main rig (690 GTX...

    (rumor) NVidia GTX 780

    Sure that's not a TITAN by accident lol? My 4x 780s @ 1020 Only get 137k PPD I have to clock em to 1175 to get 160k :( Weird.
