TPU's Winter's End WCG Challenge (2/26 thru 3/6/2015)- join us to crunch/fold/win stuff

BTW unfortunatelly i lost 20 threads today (2 xeon workstations) and wont be able to use them till next weekend. I have currently my FX-6300 and 2 i5s running. Had to stop my laptop also since I had to do some work on it not on my desk
 
Mcm has 5 pages pending validation plus a few other jobs waiting.. Jeesh it never took so long in the past for me.

Your numbers don't seem to be horrible though. For perspective, my bro's 4670k was fired up a few days ago, and your CPU is putting out numbers at about a little over 1k higher than that. CPU's take a few days to spool up so let's see how it does over 2 more days.
 
I'm NOT happy with my PPD. I selected all projects, work buffer from .02 to 3 days * did that last night from my cell* and I wonder what the hell is going on? Any ideas ppl?
You shouldn't have to disable your anti-virus, and you should be able to check your device profile online and either set it to maximum workload or custom settings.
If your device is running "default" settings, that can be changed and used as the new default.

How would I set mine to maximum workload?

Turn it up to "11".

Challenge results Day 4 (3/1/2015)
*note- results will be posted 12-24hrs after each challenge day due to the way WCG updates are done
We did a great job Team and are holding 2nd place with 32,301,403 total points... 1st place remains with SNURK and friends- they continue with daily output well above their normal average with 42,682,930 points.

Great job Team- WCG wins with every point generated! :toast:

Don't believe that we're doing great??? :fear:

Check out the results from Day 4 from last year's February Challenge:

That's right..... we're doing over 90% more than last year!!! :pimp::peace::respect::lovetpu:

Over a 100 member's with results! I don't know that I've seen that before, either!! Anybody remember that many contributors at one time?

:confused:
 
Well I am proud to be part of these results. My computer has not been turned off since I joined. Can't wait for my next milestone. Fingers crossed, hoping to get my hands on a prize.

Keep it up everyone.

:toast::rockout:
 
RIP Duron :cry:

Yepper sadly the Duron was in the fire.. but I was able to pull the chip.. lol but no board or ram.. I've retired it to my CPU museum which by my surprise survived the fire with only smoke damage to the cardboard box. On a higher note I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a 2011v3 system to replace my i7 970. :toast: I'm really down to my i7 970, i7 2600k, and a Q9550.. The i7 970 is heavily smoke damaged and I'm really surprised it's still running and crunching. :toast:
 
No 10 o'clock free-dc point update? Kinda curious on if my change made any difference.
 
What should the FreeDC ppd be on a 4670k? I'm seeing about 2.5k it seems.

Should be a little higher than that. Mine is reading 3.5k yesterday, 3k today. Even that seems low to me as I was expecting more about 4.5k or thereabouts.

Nope not on my end. Just tried my bookmark link and still the same as 3pm update :confused:

Eh, I'm thinking something was up today because I expected another update as well, but it never came in. Maybe tomorrow will be different
 
Maybe it needs to spool up then, it's only been 48 hours. Also, 45 sounds really nice. :laugh:

Oh yes, you'll see more as it continues to spool. Mine has only reported 4 days, so I think it'll to a little higher too.

WCG says my points for today are higher than yesterday. FDC shows me much lower.o_O

Somehow I caught the update and now it's gone? Wasn't imagining it either... just did the Pie post with it :confused:
 
BTW i noticed that different WUs give my FX-6300 different temperatures. Example with 6x MC gives me ~56C load and 6XFAAH gives me 60C
 
Yes. Different WU's have different system requirements. Some use more cpu, some more ram, and some more bandwidth. The compute for clean energy wu's are pretty intensive.

That is true in terms of compute time, it takes the longest, but I haven't noticed it in terms of temperatures
