Bump, last price drop before this goes to Ebay. Please don't make me do that :(

Full, but claimed

Nice work, guys! :)

I've got a quad-port PCIe gigabit NIC if anyone wants it. Pulled from a HP server.

Looks like we just overtook them, so seeing as they've been ahead for most of the challenge, that looks like a good deal for us. Top-10 finish I can take :)

bump, price drop!

At least here in Maine it's not hot yet outside, so I can open up the windows, stick a box fan in the window, and keep the place perfectly comfortable that way. Definitely going to be running at reduced strength for the summer contests though.

I'm givin' her all she's got, captain! (not quite, but it's finally warming up enough that I can't bear to turn on the last two systems. If the house heats up too much, the dual-CPU EPYC system overheats the VRMs and throttles to 400MHz, do it does more harm than good :( ) Huh. How are you...

Any overclocking going on? My systems are all running stock (+ turbo as temps/power limit allows) and are completing tasks w/o issue.

Or, those of us who are here need to work twice as hard :)

Yes, I misunderstood how Primegrid spawns additional worker threads (I think) for each of the tasks, and you have to get all of them bound to the correct CPUs or it won't work. Oops.

Did you fix this to change the -pc to -pca?

Seems to be making a huge difference (tasks run in < half the time) on my EPYC system. Can't argue with that. So overall the script is workable, I think. It could use a bit more polish to make it easier to use. So far it lets you skip the first couple CPU cores if necessary to keep things...

14th place so far 😑 I wrote a Python script last night to handle pinning individual WUs to CCDs in my EPYC chips, and the results are _drastically_ better than letting the OS do it itself. With that in mind, I've got a couple more of my systems now running TRP as well, and hopefully that'll...

Holdolin I've been seeing your primes roll in through the Discord feed. Crazy good work. 4 yesterday and 4 more today!

bump, price drop. This is a LOT of CPU power and a ton of RAM expandability :)

I can hear it calling your name from here :)

bump, price drop. Xeon combo down to half of what I paid for it just last year :(

Looking forward to it. Started experimenting on some of my Xeons exactly the right mix in terms of # of CPUs/task.

bump!

One fan and the plastic clips for it per heatsink.

Both are still available

bump, price drop

Down to just the SM combo. Send me offers for it :)

bump, price drops

Up we go!

I've got a pair of CM Hyper 212 heatsinks, with Intel LGA 11XX mounting brackets. Pay shipping and they're yours, you can have one, or both.

SR5 Sieve is un-suspended! I've switched a couple of systems over to chase down that badge and see how it performs on different CPU types.

Up we go! Send me offers on the i7 & SM combo

HP Microserver is sold. IO shield for the Supermicro board located. Price drop on the 8700k combo!

Yes, that's true. A tree didn't fall on the house, I've got plenty of water, and I've got a gas stove for cooking, so all things considered, I'm doing pretty much alright.

Bad showing from me. Power went out at my place Saturday evening, and still isn't back. I think I ought to be able to do a much better job under more normal circumstances.

7700k combo sold. Details/pictures added on the dual Xeon combo.

603-0-0 Heat linked in signature I am moving in a couple of months, and looking to find a new home for some hardware I'm not using so that I don't have to bring it with me. Up today I have got: A HP Microserver Gen 8. 8GB RAM, Xeon E3 1220L V2, no drives, but all drive trays included. Nice...

Can't let them beat us, so I just threw another 72-core system at ESP :)

Three of them are Linux, and had apparently come back fine by the time I got home. I blame the network switch. The last one was just off completely. Power obviously went out, and I must have not gotten the auto-power-on setup properly in the BIOS. Oh well, easy fix.

Yeah. I am right stumped about what happened to them, too. It's four that have a "last contacted date" on PG that is within 30 seconds of each other, so that makes me wonder if there was an issue with the network switch. But I've got another system on the same switch that has been running...

I'm in, but of course as luck has it, I go out of town and a couple of my systems go down. Will have them back up tonight or tomorrow.

Nominating Holdolin for his work helping [H] shine in the TdP challenge

End result from TdP. Really was not expecting the mountain-stage mega, but got one in just in time to count for it. Now to do some AP27 for a while on the GPUs and some of the more neglected CPU projects.
