I think we need a thread to track all of the SR-2 owners here, and their configurations.

If you own an SR-2 and fold for the [H]orde (or otherwise contribute to DC projects on behalf of [H]ard|OCP), please post below. I will keep a list of all the owners here, plus a link to the owner's post. If you change your configuration, edit your post rather than making a new post so that we keep things organized (more or less).

Things to include in your post:
  • parts list (CPUs, RAM, heatsinks, PSU, etc.)
  • current overclock (BIOS version and settings would be nice)
  • pics
  • benchmarks (F@H TPF and/or PPD for various WUs)
  • anything else you like!

[H]orde SR-2 Owners Club

25 SR-2s for the [H]orde, and counting...

good idea Sazan, SR2 optimisation thread is a bit long now..

SR2 #1 - main work rig
Dual hexacore XEON X5650 2.66GHz, = 12 cores, 24 threads.
EVGA - SR-2 - A49 hacked bios
Kingston KHX1600C7D3K3/6GX - 12 x 2GB = 24GB
Win 7 OEM 64
Intel X-25M 80G
Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W Modular - LOUD - replaced with...
Enermax Revolution85+ 1250W - MUCH quieter
Lian Li PC-P80B - rear fan reversed to intake - draws in cool air to PSU - takes PSU from loud to silent.
GTX460 1GB x 2 SLI
Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler x 2 with stock fans. Awesome cooling. Very hard to get RAM in and out- no clearance for heatspreaders
2x 2 tb hdd

Currently 4204MHz (20+2 turbo x 191),
Memory at DDR1528 2:8 ("DDR-1066" divider)
Folding No GPU = 620watts (2 idle GPUs, 12 DIMMs, 2 HDD etc)

SR2 #2 - Render box / folding
Dual hexacore XEON X5660
EVGA - SR-2 - A49 hacked bios
Kingston KHX1600C7D3K3/6GX - 6 x 2GB = 12GB
Win 7 OEM 64
One old 500GB HDD system drive
Enermax Revolution85+ 1050W

Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler x 2 with stock fans.

Currently 4300MHz (21+2 turbo x 187),
Memory at DDR1870 2:10 ("DDR-1333" divider)

Folding 570 watts.

Bios settings and discussion: http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1036263041&postcount=224

P6701 : 57 - 63,000 PPD
P2685: 147,000 to 160,000 PPD
P2686: 162,000 PPD
P2692 : 165,400 PPD

Running both together averages about 250,000 PPD in real world use, due to mix of work units.

Try 1600mhz 6-8-6-24 see if it's faster.
Try BLCK 200.

204BLCK was stable in windows, only tried with 1.2875vcore and it gave me artifacts, I'll try again later.

Congrats! :D Those SR-2 boards are impressive to look at, but even more awesome when you see the frame times and go through the work getting cranked out.

I just picked up my first Big Adv WU: P2692, 13min 14 sec frame times @ 3.51GHz for 127,400PpD!! Puts my PpD at the moment @ just under 200K PpD (I've got 2 P2684's on the other i7's).
 
Lucky! I've been working my way through 6701s (7 out of the last 10 WU)...

I (as many others) have had my fair share of the 6701/2's. On my i7's, I crunch 4 to 5 A3's per Big Adv and at least one or two of those are 6701's. On my regular SMPs clients, about every other WU is a 6701/2. The point difference on the regular SMPs is relatively significant, but insignificant to my overall PpD.

Holy CRAP!!! I need to see if I can get the blck. I'm at 195, but I think I've got some room.

It will be interesting to see if you can stay around this speed. You are faster than my fastest one by 15-20 seconds/frame, so that is encouraging. It this with 2:10 memory?
 
People keep trying to bait me into buying moar D. :p

Yes, it looked for a while yesterday that I might have a 2684, 2685, and 2686 running on my x5650, x5660 and x5680, but it was not to be.

I have to say that the three Swedish 6900s that followed are not in anyway monotonous. :)
 
have an SR-2 with a pair of L5640's @ 3.6ghz
 
20 SR2s! Well done [H]. That is massive.

You know, we should really look into maybe getting the manufacturer of these SR2s to sponsor us perhaps?
 
with all the issues I have been having my SR-2 might end up in the garbage :mad:
 
may i be worthy said:

...and half the SR-2s belong to just five people.

There are eleven pairs of extra spicy L5640s, too. :) We really did corner the market on those things. (I've been tempted by the L5639s, but I'm resisting.)

edit: I think we're still missing a few [H]orde members. I'm pretty sure [H]K has one.

You would think that EVGA would show us some love, considering how effectively we put their products to use. How about some [H]ard EVGA discounts on the purchase of some more kit from EVGA? :cool:
