Milestones

Norton said shipping it from Connecticut to Raleigh was about $100....

Yours was a bit larger due to the Spotswood case/rack only being partially disassembled and the cost also reflected buying an appropriately sized box and insurance. I believe that shipping a 4P board with the various parts (coolers, psu, etc) would be in the $60-70 or less range.
 
Oil prices have dropped about 30% from their highs this year so I would expect to see shipping costs come down at least a bit. Of course it's not like there's a lot of competition in the industry, plus int'l companies like OOPS and FailEx tend to buy futures contracts for fuel so it might take a while before they see the benefit. But US oil production was up by over 1M barrels per day this year IIRC and is expected to increase by .6-.7M through 2020. So as long as inflation remains low, shipping prices should improve.
 
Honestly. Who in their right mind would call their delivery service Oops or FailEx.
That would be akin to me calling our Chrysler dealership Pocket digger Dodge or Sleazy T's quality Pickups.
Just kidding.;) I know what you mean.:laugh:

Sounds like that must have been one of the CEP2 ones....even my Atom D510 does the others in "only" 18-26.

Atom N270.
 
Mates i have a serious problem......When i set WCG to work in full (causing cpu go 100% all cores) and at same time run Furmark , my computer halts....actually when i run any gpu instensive game while my cpu is working at full i get the same....Is my power supply overloaded (is 750 W 6 years psu but i do not think it has good efficiency)? Now i have to lower the WCG workload in order to play my games :(
 
Set BOINC to pause automatically when workload exceeds 50%. And check for stability.

CPU is stable. I get this problem only when i use 100% the cpu and at same time use my VGA in games/benchmarks. When i make one or the other separately i have not problem.

For example if i leave BOINC running 100% all night is perfect..

If i stop BOINC or lower it and run vga bench/games is perfect again.

motherboard chipset?
 
yeah, check BIOS settings and test.

i did not changed anything on bios. problem started 3 days ago when i tried to play Metro while working Boinc on full.
My thought about PSU is because if i lower my card below the stock clocks the problem is gone (less consumption?). I have checked everything and re applied thermalpaste on card and cpu. Temps are decent.
 
If things go well today we will see two or three stoners carve a mark in their stones. :toast:
Do not forget today it´s Monday.
 
I think with the BOINC utility you can create rules that will pause BOINC while you run specific applications.

I laughed a little when you said you were running BOINC and Furmark at the same time :laugh:
 
100% c.p.u. usage and trying to run anything at all will cause lag, burps and hiccups. Especially if one of the programs is commanding 100% cpu at all times. Your c.p.u. is maxed out. The symptoms @nightriderjt that you are experiencing are quite normal. There is nothing wrong at all with your P.s.u. or P.c.
