...and when you do find what you're looking for, there's no telling how that system is being run. You'll find results all over the place.

It's a mess isn't it, no real direct comparison sadly

Some years ago he recorded run time and points and calculated a value but as @thebluebumblebee wrote you have no idea if the system was OC'ed as there were no tomorrow. The best way is to ask people with similar CPU/system but even that can give a misleading guideline. If you asked @Norton about his new AMD after the two days LINK he might would have told you that it was the best producing CPU he ever had. My 2700x is the second "best" despite folding on/of. The rewarded points are all over.

OK Windows and MCM are consistent on my rigs so you might still find something to compare with.

while under one banner the actual work to do and points vary a lot but running consistently you can earn a stable ish amount of points, ish.

Not just clock speeds (or other factors that might make a minor change), but the specific project, too. Some users who go for big points have their rigs set up to only take whichever project produces the best points on their hardware, leaving out the lessor earners. You also never know what else might be running on that computer. My 2600k is set up to only use 75% threads, so that whenever I launch a game, I have a free core that isn't loaded by WCG projects. However, ever since I changed that setting, it seems the other projects have grown "out of bounds" and somehow take up the remaining space. Instead of running at 75% load with each project taking 12.5% as expected, each project now takes ~16% and I still see 100% load.

It would be handy to have a search by CPU or something to that effect, trying to search by going through 1000's and 1000's of systems to find things but there's no way of really narrowing it down very well, which is a real shame....

I'm trying to find a few results for the following -

Xeon E7-4870 V2 2.3Ghz
Xeon E5-2640 V2 2.0Ghz
Ryzen 1700X (Which I believe we have a few people using them)
Intel 7980XE just to see what the average might be

There might be more, but I can't remember so it isn't that important for the moment
Thanks for the replies tho guys, very appreciated

1700:

1700X:

Both stock, single 4GB, SSD, Mint KDE

 

[HammerON]

Here ya go @phill

7980XE stock, OS Ubuntu 18.04, 24/7

RAC = 50,774 per stats.free-dc


Xeon 2683 v3 stock, OS Ubuntu 16.04, 24/7

RAC = 25,285 per stats.free-dc

 

[hat]

What speed does that 7980xe run at under full load @HammerON ?

 

[phill]

Thanks for the results there guys, very helpful stuff If only Free-DC or BoincStats were as helpful!!

 

[HammerON]

What speed does that 7980xe run at under full load @HammerON ?

I will have to check and get back with you...
EDIT: @hat looks like 3.4 GHz on all cores. I might have to overclock it a bit. My current temps are 59 C and lower.

Steady and cool wins the race My 5960X is running at 4.2Ghz, I've got the temps around the 45C to 50C mark at best when it's crunching, I don't push it much further as it's flat out all the time Doesn't really help sooo much I think with the overclock just uses a chunk load more power

Over the last 2 days, I've gotten OET like points from Zika on my Ryzens which has lead to my first 100,000 point day! This does not appear to be some kind of point make up, as my time credited is actually less than the threads that I'm running. How good? My Ryzen 1700 got 33,812 points for 16:17 hours of work, and it's been averaging 20-22k.

There are odd points around. Since I on/off fold on my Linux 2700x I get from 50 to 100 points/hour (19200 to 38400 per day in theory if 16 hours runtime). I have seen a six core AMD getting a higher average than mine HERE and some 1800xs getting close to 300k on one day after disconnecting(?) HERE.
I made my first step into building my new 2700x rig today - I picked up the goods and opened the box. All there. Took the RTX 2070 out and installed it in my 970/2070 rig. Had tons of problems but that is at least running now. Maybe tomorrow a new WCG rig....I'm so out of energy now.

I could have sworn you had managed 100k before @thebluebumblebee but going back a few pages I could see 90k days and a bit closer to 100k but never over.. But more importantly many congrats on the score!! You must be throwing some CPUs at your total and more CPUs, more electric etc, hats off to you sir

The points have been a little weird over the last few weeks, I think since the last type of work went offline, the points do seemed to have dropped a little...

 

[mstenholm]

Well OET/Linux is up and down....and my new build is not running yet so the whole thing about comparing two identical rig bar FAH running on one is going to be hard.

That translate into 82750 points per day for 16 treads. My average is around 26000 and that is with some folding every 2-3 days.
Edit: ½ hour later this is the situation:

Still good (>33k PPD). I see how @thebluebumblebee got his +100K days.

So Samsung Migration are selective. I was hoping make a clone of a working SSD to a clone PC. Din't work. USB stick with Ubuntu didn't work but a DVD with the same ISO did. The first 16 MCM job are running (sure that will be the last that rig will see of those). Placed the rig 5-6 feet from the fireplace for a little burn it. It twill be placed in my 10 C bedroom later today.
Learn me some Linux commands so I can check temperature and clock speed. I got Psensor and XSensor...but

Edit: reading about how points are rewarded did no prepare me for me for the time to time odd points (all in the interest to if my rig needed a turn on OC noob), but I found some very odd point.. take a look at one of the byteball users trying to make money. Some people user the entire lifespan of their PC to get what he did in one day - twice...SO WRONG. Several others are doing the same, what ever that might be.

Edit 2: First day resulted in 16 pages of Pending Validation OpenZika and valid 10 MCM so grand total was 1 run day. I will let this one run uninterrupted until some breaks and the other with folding on for a week. Let the game begin. Numbers below is for ½ das.
01/23/2019 0:001:03:43:36 13,087 27
Edit 2: Considering most of my QpenZika needed a wing man it did manged
01/24/2019 0:005:05:05:26 62,476 139
That's a 27k/day.
l´will abort my FAH/LINUX/WGC experiment 26 hours in. I hurt to see that WCG points are 10 % dawn and runtime 20-25%. Linux/WCG and FAH is is poor combination.

This is so big that it takes a post for it self - remember these - in the pas I got 100 and now 9 sneaked in:

 

[mstenholm]

Follow up on HST (sorry that I never leaned not to double post )

2700x and 2700x-1 are similar Linux builds except one did folding at the same time. 3.7 MHz I assume. The last is Win 7 @ 3.7 MHz. Lesson - if you are in it for the points stay clear of Windows and Linux folding&WCG combination, well and stick to Zika. Still got 11 in the pipe line. I might even end up with earning a badge

 

[thebluebumblebee]

I stuck it rich. I've got 5 pages of HST!

I have a whopping 1 active WU for HST Lmao

Three losers -Liechtenstein, TPU and WCG. ION (aka Aperture_Science_Innovators aka Carl) either went on vacation, lost internet or thought that messy 700.000.000 was a decent target. He did disappear before and came back stronger. We can only hope that he graduated and got a sweet job at a data-center.

Been wondering the same thing.. Noticed his numbers had been dropping for a while now but as he never really posts here (and understandable if the man is busy as a bee...) so here's to hoping everything is alright for you man!!

Sorry guys, had a few days away from the numbers, but all back up to date I hope

 

[mstenholm]

@HammerON . This is only to document that I ONE time did outrun you. As I stated earlier I'm happy if I can stay in top 10 on but your Intel is a beast of a cruncher and you will pass me sooner or later. Wish I could replace my 8 year old daily rig with something like yours.

Let's hope he's doing a reconfigure and will come back with a monster setup again
