Awesome man! You should be able to get that thing clocked to 4.0 hopefully if your h50 can keep up with it!

Get that PSU rolling on the folding rig for now unless you need to get rid of it right away for the i7 rig.

Order some RAM for your i7 rig so you can get it going right away You already have a rasa kit coming for it now your gonna be stuck without ram just like i am

Lol...yeah. i just wanna be able to touch 4 Ghz on that thing. Its eluded me long enough.

I'll get the new PSU on my folding rig and ship the older one tomorrow. I'll keep the s775 combo for a week or so before selling, just so I can play around with the clocks on it. I might even turn off my main rig for a day or so, so I can mount the H50 on the Q6600 to OC it.

That would be neat I was able to boot at around 3.8 on it but no matter what i did it wasn't stable so i just ran it at 3.6 folding.

Also what happened to that Coolit eco you were getting?

 

[thebluebumblebee]

So it's better to go with the sandy bridge when they come out for folding?

You be the judge, but it sure looks that way to me.

Finally found what I was looking for: Folding results! Wish they'd OC'd the 875K as well.

Since I got the custom water cooling setup, I didn't need the Coolit anymore. Sold it to a friend to fund the purchase of the RB-C3.

I'm glad I bought the open bench. I'll use the bench and the water setup on all three systems (socket 775, i7 920 and AMD 965) to see how far I can push each.

They are comparing -smp only. They say at Microcenter the sticker price is $369.99 for the 2600K but not until Jan 9 will we know for sure.

Sounds awesome I eventually plan to get a full custom loop in the future and the rasa looks good. I want to get the 360 version though so i can add my gpu to the loop

Dam doorbell just rang and u shoulda seen how fast i was runnin up the stairs! Found out it was USPS and for my mom Im looking for the big brown UPS truck! It's supposed to come today. UPS usually doesn't come for another 3-4 hours though out here.

In other cases i just got me a free tube of mx-2. Ebay bucks is a great program and during the holiday season i let my family use my ebay account for any purchases and i also bought my 920 through ebay so that was good for like 4 ebay bucks. My ebay bucks card was for like $9.13 and a tube of mx-2 was like $7 something so i got some good TIM coming now

Better than running uni-processor client! Doesn't smp give a good indication of how well bigadv will do?

 

[Josh154]

Anybody looking to buy a BNIB 920? If so newegg has them back in stock here. $289 isn't bad for a brand new chip with full warranty and all retail packaging unless you live close to a micro center. But most like myself aren't

Hey texbill, don't you have an i7 running SMP? Could you tell us the OC and TPF on p6054?

It's not running a 6054 but here it is running a 6702. Don't mind the pic in the background that just a grumpy old man and his lovely wife Xmas pic in front of our tree.
Overclock is 4.2GHZ with a custom watercooling loop. Has 2-480's and the i7 960 in the loop. cpu usually stays within the mid 50's C and the gpu's run mid to high 40's C. Not bad for a lazy chip that doesn't run bigadv any more. One of these days I will sit down and try to fix it where it will run bigadv again.

 

[TeXBill]

On the brighter side just ordered an AMD 1100TBE chip to replace my 1055T thats running 4.0GHZ with a stock cooler. Temps are in the mid to high 50'sC. Going to sell the 1055T and Antec Skeleton case and just ordered another dimastech bench to replace it. Plus going to build another custom water loop for it also. Put my PNY465 upgraded to a 470 plus the 2 MSI Hawks cards in it also. with my Revolution 1000 watt PSU powering all of it.

 

[[H]@RD5TUFF]

Bought this to replace my Gigabyte 870A-UD3 that was DOA, and to test parts before 15 day return policy ends.

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Are you running HFM? You can go to tools-benchmarks viewer and see what your system has done on one if its ever worked on a 6054.

Nice board, I got one like it but it's an MSI flavor. I love mine OC's like crazy and easy to do it with my AMD 6 core cpu.
Hope you have better luck with this gigabyte board.

Nope not using HFM any more.
It shows in the tracker history of SMP I did 4 of the 6054 WU's without any problems.

It seems like you will not lose your crazy folder badge anytime soon

This is the dimastech bench I ordered today.

Nope I've had the crazy folder badge just about the whole time I've been folding.

 

[TeXBill]

This is the dimastech bench I ordered today.

Going to add a watercooling setup with this one and mount it inside of the case. I got the rad, tubing, and barbs already just need to order the pump and res. I'm thinking about an all in one pump and res together this time.

Nope none Sorry.

Hope it was insured, and you need to call customer support.

 

[Josh154]

Hope it was insured, and you need to call customer support.

I didn't have any option for insurance from newegg and i thought UPS was automatically insured up to $100? UPS's customer support is a joke in my eyes. Everytime i have ever called them i have never gotten 1 represeative that was helpful untill i asked for the supervisor who actually did something for me.

I think it's because people can tell i don't sound fully like a adult and think im just some annoying kid. Yet do they know how much i buy sell and trade, ive made over 100 transactions and to this day UPS is my least favorite shipping company. Always has been, always will be until they give me a reason not too.
