At the moment I'm feeling like how I used to feel when I was nine and I lay awake all night on Christmas Eve waiting for morning so that I could go downstairs and open my presents.

Hurry up, Stanford! Give me new clients! THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!!

...

That is all. Move along, now.
 
It is worth the wait. Lots of testing to do before public release.

Nothing is worse then an unstable client getting out to the public and the 50+ pages of complaining about it.
 
the sad thing is they could do 10 years of beta testing and there will still be 50+ pages of people complaining.. doesnt matter how bulletproof the client is people will always complain..
 
Doesn't really bother me too much waiting; the VM A2 clients work fine for me and the performance hit of running the VM isn't really a concern either. Granted, I'd rather just have a Win SMP A2 client, but whatever....I can wait for the real thing as long as there's a reliable alternative in the meantime.

I'm more concerned about getting rid of the EUE nonsense, either with a gpu3 client or by weeding through all the questionable WU's that usually cause those (seems like it's always 57xx for me).
 
The SMP2 client isn't that much of a deal for me. Bonuses would be good, but the SMP client I have in Notfreds is working perfectly well. It's the GPU client I'm really anxious for. I get EUEs almost endlessly now, to the point where I'm considering shutting off the GPU client and letting the SMP client get the extra cycles, because I haven't actually finished a GPU WU in almost 2 days; it keeps shorting out on me.

Maybe I missed this in another post of yours but is this a single board or multiple GPU boards that are EUE'ing? What are the OC settings [if any] and average temps?
 
Single 4870 512MB. 750/900 - i.e. stock clocks. Temps peak at upper 50s load, memIO at 65.
 
Did you try wiping the client clean and doing a fresh install? Maybe reinstalling the driver or trying a different one?
 
ditto what APOLLO suggested

If that doesn't help, do you have a spare PSU to swap with your current PSU with?
 
I'm pretty sure the PSU isn't the problem, unless it's a very selective, very specific problem with the +12V rails; I've put my i7 back to stock for a while, but that hadn't helped much. And yes, I've tried the drivers and the fresh install.
 
I have EUE's nearly every day on my 8800GT but not much at all on my 260's.
It's either the client or the WU's, either way yeah I agree with you that I'm tired of it. I won't bother downclocking the card (8800GT) or anything though especially since it works fine with everything else including gaming.
Driver flushes, client flushes, CCleaner, Driver Sweeper...I've done it all. :mad:
 
Sometimes there is a series of WUs released by Stanford that are inherently unstable. It could take a while before Stanford catches the problem and stops dispatching them. For me, whenever I get a problem with continuous EUEs on a client, deleting everything except the core files will tend to resolve the issue. When that doesn't work, it usually points to a problem on Stanford's end.
