Hi all,
Help required if possible.:respect:

How can I find my user IDnumber?

If I go on to My grid from BOINC manager and click on statistics I can see my user name and points , but nowhere can I see my number. I have looked and looked .... :banghead:

Any help would be gratefully appreciated. If it helps boinc user name is same as here.

My Grid > My Profile
At the bottom.
Cross project ID
 
Guys,

Just got my QX back up but now BOINC keeps saying "Retrieving Current Status" and that's it. I can't detach/attach, nothing is available in the "advanced view"

Help???
 
tried uninstall / reinstall it? i mean boinc

it may sound dumb... but is the date right?:)
 
Good news everyone!

Kuma (7750BE) is going to be upgraded to Regor (Athlon II x2 240). She agreed to swap my current cpu out for the new one she would be getting in the build as payment. Good deal on her end, seeing as she'll never see the difference between a 7750 and an Athlon II x2 240, and she didn't have to pay me a dime to build it. Good deal for me cause I get a Athlon II x2 240... I've heard they can clock to 3.6GHz on stock voltage, is this true??

That sounds at least reasonable, my X4 955 will do 3.6ghz @ 1.35v (vs 1.408 stock) as long as I leave the side panel off and use a better fan on the CPU (the Rocketfish has massive cooling issues), so 3.6ghz on a 3ghz stock (?) CPU certainly sounds believable

Problem fixed, had to install a older version of BOINC.

ANyways, look at the temps under load with the Megashadow :D The fan is on it's lowest setting too!

Wow, those are awesome temps! *looks at temps on the X4, and discovers that they are 66c :eek:*
Time to OC that now :toast:

yeah man, some insane temps!!!!

its more then true. Mine did 3.6ghz on 1.35v and stock voltage is 1.4v :)
BTW the i7 is back at 3.7ghz and seems to be fine now that i Installed 7 64bit. Seems that maybe it was a software problem with XP
 
So you got it working? That's great, man!

Hmm... I should at least get it running at 3.5GHz (250x14)... my board's done 250FSB with my 7750. I don't know about pushing it much farther though, given my generic $70 budget board :p

I got it working lastnight :) passed 500x LinX at 3.7ghz@1.2v :D temps ~69c hottest core with push/pull fans on low. I had my 240 running at 3.6ghz on my cheap Gigabyte GA-m61p-S3(Nforce 430) it ran stable on that board even. I got 3.9ghz@1.5v stable on my Asrock 790GX(that i just sold)
 
Hey Sir Ion:

How much PPD do you expect from an Athlon II x2 240 at 3.5GHz?

I know i'm not Ion but i say around 800-1000 PPD as thats about what i got from mine at a slightly higher 3.6ghz
 
I wonder if my aunt would mind if I set up WCG on her machine as well...

Here's a brain teaser: if I overclocked the processor to 3GHz, but undervolted it to 1.25v (1.275v stock), would the temps be safe for WCG on the stock cooler? The processor is lapped.
 
wuhuu, now i got myself this board for my other phenom

40$, okay i gotta stop now otherwise im gonna ruin my self :roll:

That is a bright board Hat:)
 
$40 for a board like that? Damn... I paid $160 for my DFI LanParty 590SLI back in the day...
 
its been used for some 4ghz+ oc'ing, and no reciept ? dont know the right word, thats why its so cheap,
 
CoreTemp reads Yorkfield wrong. Use RealTemp.

Makes no difference man. Temps a bit higher now that it's been crunching for hours.

Got to love the Mega series.
