I accidentally bought myself a birthday present. So CEP2 will be joining the farm with all the others, once I've fiddled with clocks and voltages.

I actually have one of those setups in my crunching farm but with a cx600 psu. I just used the onboard video and it's running linux. The 8320 is clocked at 4.0 ghz. It had 4gb of Gskill Ares ram and a hyper 212+. been doing great.

I've kind of wondered how the TX3 stacks up against it's big brother, the 212 Evo. Glad to know it's capable of better than stock.

Id say,,,and then some.
The 4160,is 4 threads 2 cores, but it has a terrible location, with almost zero air flow, so while crunching at 100% #4tasks# it would run @ 65'ish. Now in the same scenario, it runs 50c, give or take 3c or so.i went with it because it has zero ram conflict, and because it is under 6" tall, which i needed for my mATX cougar case.
Oh and it uses 92mm fans, but they are good,
Great buy .

This offer has been extended through the rest of the week.

Also, maybe I should whine more. I complained yesterday about the lack of HST, and today I'm getting HST AND CEP2's. :clap:

Just realized that I paused boinc on the wife's rig while she was trying to do something yesterday, and I never resumed.... :banghead:

She was trying to do something online (something rather important) and it was loading very slowly, so I paused it just in case. :shadedshu:

Still hitting up those CEP2s?

How are your results with them, do they turn out errors ever?

I've noticed that when I increase my buffer size, I'd pull a few more HST WUs though it does'nt help much since I've to go through so many of the others to get to them :ohwell:

thebluebumblebee · Apr 12, 2016

Recently, (as in this year) the CEP's have been erroring out, but I think that's why they stopped sending them out. I have a page of results, and so far they're all valid or pending validation.

thebluebumblebee · Apr 13, 2016

Wow.
There are currently no new tasks available for my chosen projects, CEP2, HST and FAH2!

Edit: Linux boxes' event logs say that tasks are committed to other platforms.

Doesn't surprise me about the HST since they've been so hard so get for many of us. I did have quite a few FAAH2 til I removed the project like yesterday I think.

Interesting what you say about the CEP2 wu's though, I like the sound of that.

manofthem · Apr 14, 2016

I've got 3 Beta-CEP wu's running on the 2600k. They're 10hrs in and 20 hrs remaining :eek:

Perhaps our newer computers are running through WUs faster than WCG would like and newer projects are handing out larger workloads to compensate? The recently-released HST had some rather large WUs too.

Caring1 · Apr 14, 2016

That could explain why I haven't got any HST on my old (Ivy Bridge era) computers

Indeed you may be right. Same rig is running an HST, 12 hrs in and 1 hr to go while an OET is estimated at 2.5hrs. The FAAH2 are up there too with long run times up like 12-14hrs iirc.

35 hours combined for me! That's just wrong.

They actually completed in a little over 6 hours.

Okay, I give up. Selected please send me other work.
@manofthem , a couple of the CEP2's that I got on the 12th were okay, but those since then have errored.

Just checked mine too and you're right, those long times were way overestimates: I had 4 ranging form 8 to 16hrs. Strange but all less that what BOINC estimated.

I give you credit for sticking with them so far :respect:

I gave up when so many reported errors.

Looks like you're stuck doing other work. Rather unkind that they can't supply steady work in the desired projects :rolleyes:

I have to wonder if it hurts me in getting new work - all those errors.

This looks, to me anyway, to be a great crunching case at a great price:
Corsair Carbide Series 100R Silent Edition Between the sale and the $15 MIR, it's only $38! Shell Shocker, today only. (I would recommend a second 120/140MM fan in front)
RANT:
bit-tech tested this case and found that it had poor cooling performance......with an OC'd i7-870 and a blower fan HD5870 (188 watts).....in comparison to cases like the R5 and 760T. That's a lot of heat in a case with only one 120MM inlet fan. They should have popped in a second fan to see how that would have changed the performance. This is a lower end case that's also meant to be quiet. Comparing this case to the 760T is like track testing a Prius against a M5.

agent00skid · Apr 15, 2016

CEP2 is now up and running. Might get a different cooler for it at some point.

Sweet! Could you report back after a few days of results of the CEP2?

thebluebumblebee · Apr 18, 2016

News Flash:
New York state A.G. Schneiderman, former Vice President Al Gore and a coalition of Attorneys General from across the country announce historic state-based effort to charge CEP2 with unnecessary wear and tear to the Internet with their error prone workunits.

Things aren't going too good with those wu's still, huh?

manofthem · Apr 21, 2016

Bah, just saw that I didn't resume BOINC again after playing like 10 minutes of a game earlier... A good 5 hrs wasted :cry:
