I am currently using an "off the shelf" HP Elite 7000 system. i7 processor, 4gb memory, etc. If I read it right, it looks like the power supply is a 425 or 450 watt model. I would like to upgrade my current video card (9600GT) to an nVidia 460, but I am concerned about the power supply not...
Well, it has been a good run. But as of yesterday, my work farm is down for the count.
It wasn't that the boss had anything against running Folding on a few stations, but because of the anal way that internet usage is tracked where I work, the agents were making it appear that I had been...
I already put it in the correct thread, but I think this one deserved singular mention as well. :D
Now over the million mark in two projects. Of course, one of them is now defunct, but as long as the score still shows on [H]ardFolding, I will display it proudly!
It took just a little over...
It looks like the SMP client is working OK. It should turn in its first WU sometime today or tomorrow. I was wondering if this beta client works as well with other applications as the more refined single CPU clients? Does it give up cycles when other applications need them, or do you pretty...
I know that the UD project has gone to that great DC project resting place in the sky, but I was wondering if [H]ardFolding/King_N was planning to maintain the stats so our efforts are not forgotten? I rather like having my UD badge reflect my accomplishments in both F@H and UD, and I would...
I have about 45ghz (19 computers ranging from 2.5 to 3.2ghz) slamming away at F@H. My stats for the last two weeks look this way:
I was just making sure that these computers are doing what they are supposed to, which is work their CPUs off Folding for the cause. If the numbers look low...
I am seeing this in the log files on about half of my computers. One of them includes a home machine that is not behind a proxy server, so I am pretty sure it is not that. Any help would be appreciated.
This is hard to believe, but it appears that the United Devices project is shutting down entirely as of this coming Friday.
Here is the post from their forum:
After darn near 6 years of going [H]ard for UD, it seems that my work farm is out of commission, due to some recent changes in the infrastructure. I am not sure if these changes are permanent yet, but it is quite likely that they are. If something changes in the near future, I will ramp up...
In looking at the stats across the board today, it looks as if EVERYBODY is now engaged in chewing on some mighty large WU. I noticed my three home units were working on some that were 17 hours in, and only 5% done!
When your farms start turning these things in, there are going to be some...
I don't want to come off as petty here, but with all the talk of a reinvigorated effort on the UD side of the house, it seems every time I see Steve talk about the DC effort in his "Forum Happenings" posts, Folding is prominently mentioned and UD is....well notably absent. I saw Rich include UD...
I check stats on HF every few days or so, and I have seen that they sometimes get a little off cycle with the UD update schedule. But checking today, my own results are about 40k off from what the main site (Grid.org) shows. That would be about 3 to 4 days worth for me.
Any info on this?
I actually already put this in the UD milestone thread, but it was not getting anywhere near the number of slaps on the back, and "atta boys" that I was lookin' for, so here it is on the main DC page!
After almost 5 years, and damn near 45 years of CPU time, I have finally attained the number...
I noticed last night that some of my units could not send in results after completion, so I tried going to the main site (www.grid.org), to see what was happening. They have server maintenance, and breakdowns from time to time, and they are always good about communicating with their followers...
I have a total of 13 computers working the UD project. Every one of them is currently chewing on a Rosetta Unit that has taken anywhere from 56-96 hours so far, and they are around 40% done!
I have been doing this project long enough to know that these are the biggest, most intense chunks...
For those that had their pre-orders, they are wrapping up their 3 day headstart. But for the rest of us, the servers are ON starting today. The weird thing is, that the advert that I saw in the Best Buy flyer said that they would not have it available until Wednesday. :confused:
I am...
I have ben playing the CoV beta since it began, and I have to say, I like it!
I have played City of Heroes since a week or two after it went live, so I am pretty familiar with it. To contrast the two, I would say that they are similar enough so that one could jump from one to another and...
I did not have time to search the threads to see if someone had already posted this, and of course there is always the question of degree of interest. That being said, it was posted yesterday in various places that when CoV goes live, if you already have a CoH account, you only need to buy the...
I am not sure if you have seen this yet, but if not, it is a total crack up! I don't know where it originated, or I would give props to them. I found it on a forum that I belong to that deal with CoH and there was no reference as to its origins.
Anyway, for those that have not seen...
I have recently upgraded 4 of the computers that make up my 13-rig farm. The upgrades take my total gHz output from 28 up to 35gHz!
That should go a long way towards getting to the number 1 spot on the UD stats before those upstart SuperMen catch up to me. They have been doubling my output...
The pre-load for this update has already hit the test servers. Typically, this preceeds the actual content release on the test servers by about a week, two at the outside. It might spend two to three weeks on the test server barring any nasty bugs, then head to the live servers.
If PvP was...
I had used the original N50 SpeedPad for a few games and found it to handy, but not terribly exciting. I used it off and on, and never REALLY used it in games as it should be, a keyboard replacement.
Now the N52 is a whole 'nother ball of wax! This thing is fantastic! It is not perfect...
