The 9600GSO is better at some things, but overall the 9600GT is a better card. The 9600GSO is definitely the better card at Folding though.

well this cards getting 5841 at that speed its vmod on water highest its been is 39c its on its 11th wu

also the sonics get 800 core on stock but there being rma but thanks to largon for the vmod

also my cpu is at 3.8GHz which is not folding stable im suprised it hasnt locked up but with only 4% usage thats why but going to reboot cuz you can fell the rooms warm when walking in lol

I guess going to put the other 9600GSO in my dell but it only gets 700 core on stock volts
 
edit: nice Buck Nasty, I'm thinking with the right oc, you could do 7000+ ppd on the new rig alone.

We will see. I have been a diehard AMD/ATI fan for many years, but the folding number are too irresistible with Intel/Nvidia. I have been drawn to the Dark Side(black PCB:laugh:) I feel it will be a good balance and I love to O/C the $@%# out of my systems.

Top on main right and bottom on a Dell with P4 2.8GHz 2BG Ram should be getting 10206.6 PPD:rockout:

Very nice! Right now I'm stuck at about 4065 on my 9600GT lol! Hard saying if I am losing some due to sucking up so much CPU power for 2 SMP's or not, but still good enuf for me, both my SMP's are averaging 1740, my G/F's rig is back down around 1440, so yeah not quite as high as I was, but still fairly decent!

:toast:

EDIT: Hey DOM I just noticed, on your GPU-Z you took my old OC's! When my 9600GT was VModded that's what I left it at for gaming! LOL! I was getting 4300-4500PPD at those speeds, so the extra shaders are definately helpful for folding...and at those speeds I'm sure your GSO beats my GT, maybe not by a ton, but I'm sure it's faster...unless we to somewhere that my little bit of extra memory helps out...or you put in your larger memory GSO lol!

:toast:

hhahahahaha one of my 9600's just died so im returning them boith and getting dual 9800GTX's and paying the $25 diff. w00t someones bout to w00p some serious F@H ass.
 
i got socket A and socket 370 stuff today and i killed the socket A board and CPU because of a fan being on backwards.some how the CPU and board shit its self :wtf: i killed the socket 370 cpu because i forgot to put the HSF on it :banghead: but i may get a 1ghz P3 sometime. if i don't kill it too
 
Has anyone else lost some WU's today? I've lost 4 WU's into the Stanford void today. They have been sent but no points for them. Very strange.

Some serious ramps going on, good too see. We are really starting to push some points.
 
i lost two, it happens...
I think since I've started folding I've lost 8 or so wu's :(

We are making some nice progress now, :toast: , keep up the good work all :rockout:

@ Sol, k I gotta ask, I sent ya that info and the next day I hear a 9600 is dead. What happened?
You should have some nice production rates with the new cards, :toast:

@ Dom, sweet output, you shouldn't have any trouble climbing the ranks again :)

idk i didnt even play with it....it just kinda failed...well actually awhile ago....you see ever since installing x64bit xp my F@H client wouldnt work...it said that card 2 was unstable w/e i thought x64 and the client are hit and miss anyway so i thought nothing of it...but non of my games work for more than 5min before the system locks up.
 
power went out today. :( i would have had a SMP WU done on my X2 and X4

i am going to hit you next time i see you. I have never known you to kill anything by something that stupid. :slap:
 
i got a 1ghz P3 and a 2.4ghz P4 folding now... So i got a
P4 2.4ghz
P3 1ghz
5kBE 3ghz
9500 X4 2.2ghz
Celeron (775) 3.33ghz
should be bringing in some decent PPD
 
i show all mine in fahmon as well. you simply have to link to the other systems client folders.

hint: file sharing
 
oh idk how :p

you need file sharing enabled, in fahmon when you add a client click on network and it'll show you anything you can access. Be sure to share the folders that the monitored info is stored in.:) I use password sharing so I require a user name and password on each pc I'm monitoring...
 
You don't have to have the client folder shared. I just use the default administrator shares that are always there. You have access to every file on the computer, without it looking like it is sharing anything.
 
Gotta problem

OK, got the 8800GTS today and yanked out my 3870. Deleted all ATI drivers and downloaded 177.35 forceware. I even uninstalled GPU2 and re-installed. Still getting "UNSTABLE MACHINE". Any suggestions?
I am running Vista 64 Ultimate. Is there a compatibility problem with Nvidia/Vista 64? My 3870 runs fine on this rig.
Update....Running fine now @ 5266 ppd with entire system stock...Let the clockin' begin:pimp:
