@Tallencor - good to see you back and hope your mom gets better. Leukemia is one area where they've made a lot of progress so stay positive buddy.

If you're interested, here is the clinical trials database for Canada.

librin.so.1 · Apr 14, 2015

@Tallencor, stay strong, man!
We're with You

bubbleawsome · Apr 14, 2015

@Tallencor oh boy. I've had family members with cancer and there's not really much I have to say. We'll be with you though for the entire ride until your mom kicks leukemia's rear!
Remember, if things get tough there will always be a member or two online here to help you out.

I've had a weird thing happen lately on my main rig. Two times in the last 3-4 days I've gone to my pc, turned the monitor on, and the display is all messed up, like crazy lines; this morning before going to work checked the pc, and it happened, though I don't know when it happened. Reset fixes it and pc is fine afterward. Pc doesn't crash completely or bsod, and it appears to be running fine since output is normal.

It may be linked to recently starting back up with the cep2 wus, but I can't be sure since it seems to be video related, or so I think. I just updated video driver tonight to 15.4b so I guess I'll see if it makes a difference.

Eh strange but I can live with it for now I guess, or at least til I get somewhere in the cep2 and then pull off it :roll:

I think CEP2 draws a bit more power than other projects. Any chance the PSU might be near its limit?

Sounds like MS-Paint + a little girl to me. :rolleyes:

Actually had one of my kids take an expansion slot cover and draw all over the screen. Not good for the coating.

Norton · Apr 14, 2015

Going to idle my 4P server for awhile due to dealing with the electric bill and other expenses (taxes, etc...).

Will bring it back up here and there for challenges and such- will put it on the Kreij memorial account when I do so my spot on the Pie will be up for grabs until after the summer.

If anyone is interested in running a 48 core system 24/7/365 for 20-22k ppd drop me a PM... I'll let it go for what I paid for it

Dang @Norton , that sucks that you have to look at selling that awesome system.

Frigging uncle Sam! :banghead:

Toothless · Apr 14, 2015

So since I'm not at work (boss is on vacation) and being slow, my progress on WCG is equally slow. That, and with my SSD being dumb again, forcing me to spend the rest of the day job searching again so I can afford a new SSD as boot since the rest of my drives are all being used for documents and whatnot.

I'm not selling my booty.

Sorry to hear that Captain!

I'm surprised you're only pulling down just over 20k. Kiev, w/ only 32c @ 2.3GHz is pulling down anywhere from 19k to 21k right now.
As much as I'd love to get another 4P, given that summer is rapidly approaching here in NC too it's not the right time for it :ohwell:

We have to pay taxes if we want nice things

Now, I have a very, very long list of how I'd rather my tax dollars be spent, but I certainly don't mind paying them

Power wise, no. It's an AX1200 and just touching 200w. It runs fine all other times when gaming and pulling much more wattage; it ran fine for a long time while foldling on both these gpus and crunching on the cpu.

While the CPU OC has been rock solid for over a year, I am considering that the CPU OC might be slightly unstable with these CEP2. (years ago during the CEP2 challenge, I had to drop the OC on my 2600k by 100mhz because it couldn't handle it, so I thinking a similar thing may be happening now).

Maybe it's like what @KieX said long ago :roll:

KieX said:
Has anyone seen a thieving gremlin? Seriously, it comes in the night and steals my OC stability.

It's weird because when the display is all funky, it's shifting lines, constantly changing, no static. If my daughter can do that, I need her to give me a lesson :laugh:

Sounds like your kids are pretty crafty though

Speaking of OC stability
>got an OC'ed FX-8320
>rock solid, I spend weeks with no reboots[1] while doing various stuff that pushes the CPU to the limit

...except if I try to compile LibreOffice. In which case it has ~50% chance to cause my graphics driver to crash irrecoverably. Beats me why, or more importantly, how.

[1]until I reboot on purpose

Tallencor · Apr 14, 2015

O/c is unstable boinc wonked out my system. Fine tuning today should be up in a bit.

Hah, weeks? Budapest has been up for months at this point :laugh:

But why are you trying to compile LibreOffice? What's wrong with the version in Synaptic?

That sucks. I know Kai is thinking about it to grab complete control of cherry pie for the next millennia, but he's on the fence due to summer being almost here.

Really, really tempting, I know :laugh:

On the other hand, for $100 I can get 5 more of the DP LGA1366 Xeons; to get them as fully working systems would be about $100 more. So that would be $200 for what is likely somewhere between 40k and 50k PPD

Bratislava is pulling down just under 9K PPD, which for $30 is a truly incredible accomplishment. Time to acquire at least two more to be Krakow and Prague :toast:

Power bill has doubled since last month, so it looks like I'm going to have to ramp down. Tried to give you brain pie, @twilyth, but even with an extra rig in the mix, you're hard to touch. :toast:
