Well I'm posting this because I'm a noob and hadn't cleaned out my system in awhile (probably 5-6 weeks) and was having massive heat spikes on my gtx 295 well finally just cleaned it all out and repositioned my pc closer to the window shaved 30c off the temps :D bring the oc's back on woo woo...

I know for Nvidia cards at least you have to run separate instances of folding for each gpu, also you probably will have to tag the first one with -gpu 0 and the second one with -gpu 1 after the -forcegpu. Ati Crossfire people I'm sure will correct me if i'm wrong! :D Welcome to the Team btw!!!

Mmmmmm those are all sorts of purty!! :D

Just brought a dual quad xeon online I need to get it tuned up and figure out the -bigadv workout units to get some serious points out of it. Also looks like I will be able to bring my 9800 gx2 box back online as it's finally getting cool enough to run without AC -_- so I hope to be able to get...

Inevitably I have had some fairly warm days out this last week which really sucks for folding as I refuse to run the AC in November so I have had to turn off a couple of clients off and on this last week:(

Welcome let the addiction begin! :D

I've brought 20k ppd back online over the last week I have about another 40k ppd sitting in my room that will turn back on when I can afford the power and then a dual quad xeon box that I have coming up soon :) hopefully that should help a bit to fend off evga! :D

I am in.

mmmm it's finally starting to cool off here in so cal so I think it's time to retake about 10 positions ;) and clear up that overtake chart!

Wow big grats lassiterb! thats impressive ppd! I hope to get back into the swing of things here in the next month or two:) I would like to try for 100k ppd or so

thats just the main computer room lol there are like 5 laptops and another desktop as well. I have thought about selling or giving away my cards but I know I would kick myself in sep/october if I did that.

in my computer room was about 2500 watts + ac lol -_-

Only thing electric we had was the fridge :eek: stopped folding turned of the AC(small ac unit used to cool computer room due to excessive heat) and bill dropped over 300 bucks the next month... -_- I was gone half of this month so I even had my main rig completely down + all the monitors for...

Wow very nice Looks exactly like my build except mine isn't naked or running right now. (I got a powerbill for $650) Sadly all my stuff is down until winter because keeping it cool in 100 degree heat isn't viable for me right now:( but here's to you kicking ass!!!

lol sorry i wasn't so much going for a very scientific formula or anything but i was wanting to make sure people realized that especially with the summer months arriving that heat is deff an issue.

wassup mr relic? good to see you still around.

a 285 should beat a 260 but ppdp$ i think the 260 would probably win

my 295 will do stock clocked 10-14k ppd (14 unless 511's are plaguing me) however after chimp challenge i will probably be winding down my folding box for a couple of months as today it was in the 100's outside and that's a lot of heat to overcome. (I will however probably be building a 260...

I think another number we should be looking at is point per watt of heat :D I love my gx2's and 295 but if i had to do it again I probably would go with 260's mostly because of the ppdpwh ;)

/end discussion on winAFC lol

thank god typing that passkey into 15 clients would suckkkk

the reason i can only run one vm at the moment is i haven't installed a 64 bit os if i did then running 2 wouldn't be a concern at all.

welcome to the fold you'll be drawn in by our super cuddelyness or something like that ;) even if it's temporary welcome!!!

^^^^ indeed unless you custom drug new circuits it doesn't count :D <----- has 3 20's in my comp room so i hope i'm ok for now.

lol whatever it takes bud I about ordered 4 260's and a new rig to go with them lol -_-

i'm running 5 in my current folding box so 4 shouldn't be an issue, however ram can become an issue unless your running a 64 bit os. I can only run one vm on my main box because 2 gx2 and a 9800gtx doesn't leave me enough ram to run 2 vm's without killing gpu ppd.

shaders are the primary oc point for good ppd and yes it does scale relatively well

C:\Folding@home\FAHGPU1\FahCore_11.exe := PAIR0 [priority=Normal] sorry was thinking of jbf up a couple of posts I'm only running one for core11 and one for core 14 and it keeps all the threads in my comps nice and separated

not if it's set up *\FahCore_11.exe etc... if it's set to a certain path probably

got about half my stuff switched over will finish the rest up tonight we need to be rolling 1 million ppd at least by tomorrow probably alot more!

ehh sorry i was more talking to jfb brokenarrow it honestly looks like it starting up right to me are you getting close to the expected ppd? is your gpu putting out close to 7k?

try it where instead of c:\ etc set it for *\FaHCore_14.exe := PAIR0+PAIR1 (i use high priority) [priority=high] *\FaHCore_11.exe := PAIR0+PAIR1 [priority=high]

^^ i'd take alook at the vmware thread and get one vmlinux setup and then one gpu client setup and that would be a good place to start.

modred absolutely if you need help getting it set up just ask :)

ditto

ya i hope that i can overtake the ape again in one year lol that means it will stop around 25-7 million points i just passed 10 so i hope i can pull 15 mill from some where next year lol

sweet keep it up everyone!! i started switching my vm's over last night with a couple gpu's tonight i'll probably finalize the switch so in case tuesday gets crazy i don't miss a day.

doh ^^^ i'm slow rofl

lol *smackshead* thats what i get for not re-reading the thread lol have you tried the things i've suggested?

is winAFC still in test mode? have you told it to detect your cpu? Have you told it to load profile? make sure you told it to start your icon should be yellow/black/green/red not gray
