EVGA has officially won the CC as of the 12pm update. They are truly a powerhouse, but some of the members are childish and poke fun at the lesser teams. Very poor sportsmanship in my opinion. Keep up the great folding and let's continue our march to 20 million!

...and that's what sets us apart from the pack. :toast:

CONGRATS EVGA, Keep up the great folding folks :rockout:

HeroPrinny · May 8, 2010

best of luck you fools, the beavers will beat you

sadly our ppd is tanking hard or everyone else is increasing there ppd

theonedub · May 8, 2010

Next time we are surely going to need a larger team

Or they need to find a way to equalize the playing field instead of basing it just on total points earned.

My i7 is back to WCG, I'll leave the GPUs to continue in the march to 20mil.

We lost....awww....well I am still at full speed. I know I am not in the tops of our team, but I am still sitting at 19000 PPD.

P.S. I have 4 failed work units for my GTX 260 out of 50, should I be concerned?

I'm still going till we hit the mark :toast:

I would not worry about failed WU's, unless you are O/C'd on the GPU. What are you temps and fan speeds?

Factory OC, nothing more (listed in Sig). Temp for the GTX 260 was 63C last I checked, fan is manually set at 75% now.

I just kinda wrote it off as a failed to download WU thing, but I have never been able to monitor it before so I was just wondering what would cause it besides the obvious.

Oh, and the 5200+ finally overheated at 92C and shut the computer down. It is not folding, but seems to be in one piece.

I have 3 cards that cause me problems.

First, A GTX 260 that during this challenge has completed 48 and failed 2 times.
Second, An 8800 GT that has completed 37 and failed 1 time.
Finally, a GTS 250 that has completed 37 but failed 2 times.

As long as these card have the same pass/fail rates I'll keep them. The 8800 GT of course and the GTX 260 have many miles on them not the GTS 250.

Updated ChimPowerUp points...

My points have been the same as posted on the official page but one hour behind. So there isn't any confusion I decided to adjust the hour.

That's odd to me for the cards to have so many failed units. I almost never see failed units unless I am trying a new OC and never at stock. My 275s have gone through over 50WUs with 1584shaders without 1 failure between them.

TheLaughingMan · May 9, 2010

My CPU and the 8800 GTS G92 have 0 failures between them. The GTS was at 38 units before the overheat and reboot and the CPU has only a few units since I restarted it yesterday.

I will double check the temps and bump up the fan a little more to see if that makes a difference. I will also put my area fan over there to help circulate some air.

ATI has higher CPU usage. I would concentrate on GPU only as the dual core CPU's don't scale too well with SMP/SMP2. Any luck getting both cores on the card folding?

Nope. I get around the same total ppd with or without the 4870X2 running with 1 or 2 of it's gpus. Under a 1000pt difference. It really kills the cpu client. I even have all the system variables entered. I figure if I only get 1000 extra points in the best case scenario, it's not worth the extra electricity. That's a whole lot of wattage for a measly 1000pts.

So the verdict is, gpu only on the AMD rig?

I have a 3200+ babysitting a 4830. My vote is for GPU only with ATI.

So what are you folders that are running SMP2 with a i7 920 getting for PPD???
Are you using VM?
Just curious~

I get 15,000 PPD on my Xeon at 3.6 using smp2.

With the i7 920 @4GHz,VM running -bigadv, i get ~24,000 PPD

SMP2 client no VM 16k PPD i7 920 @ 3.6

No.

The reason it doesn't help is you need 8 threads or 8 cores to run a bigadv which means even amd's x6 can't.

So an i7 with hyperthreading and a VM will get you into the 20-25kppd range.

I'm curious if Thuban scales better in a VM with an A3 core, or if SMP2 is the way to go? I know Bogmali has a x6 1055t chip and will wait for his opinion on it's production.

New user's, check your client user names. Someone if folding under "Chimpoweup"

18-18.5k ppd @ 3.8 on smp2, no vmware as I don't understand it
