Screenshot of what you are seeing ? On Ubuntu, it sometimes does weird stuff--make sure that BOINC is the active window, and then hover the cursor over the top of the screen.

Okay, first, how do ya do a screen shot in Ubuntu? Bhahaha, I know, I am a complete noob at this. :laugh:

Secondly, I "hover the cursor" over the top of the screen and get nothing?

Okay, sorry for the double post!

Yep, now I have it at advanced view. :rockout:

Thanks Ion for reminding me about that bro. :clap:

hmm, the system seems to be hanging at times? I think it has something to do with the two chips being a different stepping. :cry:

Probably going to have to switch to a pair of the dang quad cores until I can find a chip with the correct stepping as one of the others. :shadedshu:

Oh, and a special thanks to our own @t_ski for sending me a pair of 5500 series processors to flash this motherboard to the latest and greatest bios, EFI, ME, and other important updates to the motherboard!!!!!! :respect: :respect: :respect: :respect: :respect:

Well it didn't work out at all. The system would freeze requiring me to hit the reset button on the case. :cry::cry:

I pulled the 5650's and looked and they are both the same stepping chips. I don't know what the heck is going on with them. Maybe one of them are bad?

Needless to say, I installed a pair of 5620 quad cores and its been running all night just fine.

I have a second motherboard that I'll probably install the pair of 5540's in that our awesome @t_ski sent me so it can also crunch along. :peace:

Of course this is all if I can actually find a pair of cpu coolers here that will work. :p It'll probably look ghetto. :laugh:

first, sorry for the double post

The motherboards I am dealing with are Intel S5520HC X58.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813121375

Now with the dang issue; I have these damn Intel motherboards that have a backplate under each cpu socket.....Which would be just fine other than most after market coolers won't work with the factory back plates. Now my issue is this; the cpu hold down bracket screws to the dang back plate. :shadedshu: Each of them have 4 Torx screws that go through the motherboard to attach them to the back plates. If I pull these 4 Torx screws and pull the back plate there wouldn't be any way to hold down the top cpu hold down bracket. :banghead:

If you look at the NewEgg link above you'll see the back plates and cpu retention brackets I am referring to.

Only other possibility that I thought of while typing this is to pull the back plates and cut the "ears" off the back plates? That would allow the center part to still be available to hold the cpu retention brackets. Trouble with that scenario is that a lot of after market coolers have to use their own back plate which again would cause the cpu retention bracket to have nothing to mount to. o_O

Not frigging sure what to do here. I don't recall normal X58 motherboards having this type of system. I don't know if I can find some little nuts that would fit the Torx screws or find other screws to replace them? A bit beyond myself here. :p

Thanks for any ideas in advance,
stinger

Well, you'd have to check out how they're threaded, but I suspect that these Supermicro heatsinks would work, and they're only $16 each.

Right, I am sure they would work......However, I am, one, trying to find a better cooling solution, and two, I want to get this dang board up and crunching in the next few days and I am a broke dick until the end of the month. :oops:

If I could find another one of these:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Core-...431379?hash=item35f861e313:g:VTwAAOSwHjNV9juG

Locally it would be great! I have one of them currently and I'm pretty sure they would clear the mosfet heat sinks.

Of course that probably isn't going to happen.

Well, I can't help with getting things to you right away, but I'll buy you a pair of those SM heatsinks if you want ;)

Thank you for the offer :respect: bro but it isn't necessary. I think I have another one of the Intel extreme chip coolers found locally. :peace:

Good stuff :)
What fans are you using on them? Honestly that seems quite high given that they're 2U coolers and you could mount a decent fan on them

No, I think you miss understood. It's $15 for both shipped not $15 each.

Not sure what fans I will put on them yet. Probably figure out a way to mount a couple of 120mm's to them.

I meant that the temps were high on them--not the price. Oops.
The G34 SM 2U coolers I'm using with a 92mm fan cable-tied over the top...works great on things even as high as the 140W Opty 6176 SEs.

Lol well living in GA, Watercooling has saved on my power bill. And I get huge deals sometimes on my parts (my UT60 560 rads was $50 for the pair, one had a damaged port that I repaired)

Hi guys! As promised I've got internet now so I'm gonna crunch 24/7 if I can! only problem is i can't remember how the client works as I haven't crunched in 3 years. I don't think i have any tasks running, how do i set some up? sorry for the noobish question! I just thought I could log in and everything would work fine

edit: it's also not showing me on the TPU team which I definitely joined back when I crunched last!
