Crunchers Helping Crunchers

[t_ski]

I maybe looking for a 6 core 1366 chip to upgrade my I7-920

Nothing that good. Just some cheaper procs to get a rig running.

 

[brandonwh64]

I was thinking about picking up one of those lower end xeon 6 cores when they come down in price. I do not need much of an OC with the additional 4 threads.

If a team member is looking to unload a 1155/1150 i7 or Xeon chip, please keep me in mind. Preference would likely be a cheaper 1155 since I already have a z68 mobo. It'll be a few weeks before I can make the move, but I'd appreciate a holler about it

Grazie

well i have seen pretty much people considering xeon builds for crunching, thats interesting ...!
will do some tests with 2 computers here in the work for a couple of days... maybe i will install Boinc manager on those rigs to get like 16 cores more on work !

You could pick a Xeon V2 Quad-Core 3.4GHz/3.8GHz turbo boost 69W, i have built one Cruncher Machine a week ago and next week another Cruncher Machine, both are Xeons, and power consumption is amazing, the one xeon that is running right now it uses just 82.5W tomorrow I will upgrade the gpu and it should uses less than 80W

I have a I7-920 4core 8 threads, I just want to bump it to a 6core 12thread CPU

Have you checked that CPU's ppd as it levels out? I'm interested in it. I'll check Free-DC later on and see what's up

I will have a couple of 6 core S1366 setup that will I be parting ways here in a few days, they used to be my workhorse for folding and crunching until I semi retired due to working overseas. I will post pics once I verify that they are gtg and see about getting crunchers first crack at them. EVGA boards with I-7 980/970 hex cores along with 3x2GB DDR3-1600 (one might have a 6x2).

I am interested depending on price bud.

I'd be interested as well. Depending on price

Boinc says system requirements for Windows are Windows 2000 SP5 or XP SP2 or later. I can tell you it was not stable on my installation of WHS v1, which is a half-breed mix of Vista and Server 2003. I would think Server 2012 R2 should be fine since it is based on the same code as 8.1 - as we all know 8.1 runs pretty well with Boinc.




EDIT: Anyone need a S1366 chip to get a rig running?

Good point T! Worth a shot for sure.

Here it is... (to get here on Free-DC, go to team TPU, then click your name, then below it lists the different machines that you have installed on so click whichever you want.

Give it a few more days and then take a gander for a better idea; let it be fully spooled for a good 7 day average, and that'll tell you more.

Also interested in knowing asking price. Hopefully being nearby will help with shipping.

 

[BarbaricSoul]

I have a i5 2500k/MSI P67A-G43 combo available for what I paid for it (good enough of a price I couldn't turn it down, pretty much got the board for free). Hit me up if anyone is interested before it goes on the B/S/T/ forums.

Sorry Team- we need to avoid that kind of discussion in this thread since it is not in the B/S/T section. Any items discussed here need to free to the receiver (including shipping).

Anything other than the above should be discussed in PM's or posted in a B/S/T thread.

Thanks!

 

[BarbaricSoul]

Sorry Capt, wasn't trying to discuss anything here, that's why I never actually posted a price. I was just throwing it out there that I do have the combo if anyone is interested and giving team members first dibs before I actually start to try to sell it. Any further discussion about it will be by PM, as were my plans all along.

No worries and didn't mean to single you out by quoting your post - just trying to get to this early since this thread has a tendency to cross the line if allowed to, then gets reported, then PM's and then moderators posting warnings... etc..

It's @bogmali 's fault anyway

Yeah, let's blame bogmali. It's all his fault.
