• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

A Bittersweet story..

I have been tasked with building a lab in my "free time" at work. I have had the systems for a while and just got around to deploying them a little at a time...

What this thing will house is 24 q6600 workstations, 4 Dual Xeon E5335, and 4 Macs. The Macs i dont have yet, but looking at the proposal from my vendor, it looks like a brand new chip? They are quoting 3Ghz Dual Xeons.

Anyway, the bittersweet part is this...I can fold on these 24/7, SMP even, but only until I get it up to full production. Even though this is to be done on my downtime, which I rarely see, I am constantly probed about the ETA of completion.

Wonder how long I can drag this out? :p
 
Welp...that didn't last long.

One day out sick for me and the Network Engineer moved the switch over to another VLAN.

I would assume the clients all errored out :mad:

Oh well, I got to see a couple 30k days while it lasted :cool:
 
:(

You did have a great production run with lots of points, enough to pop in my radar :eek:
