POS,

I have the same procy crunching at 100% with stock cooler. Temps range at 49-51 degree C.
What I did was disabling cool and quiet and disabling CPU fan control in the Bios. Another thing I did ...actually I got my bro to do it...blow a can of compressed air over the cooler to clean out the dust. Man, it made the temps go down by upto 2degree C.

I am planning to put a Zalman CNPS 9700 on this baby.

I know its not dust because this is the first time i have used this heatsink all fan speed control is disabled i am also using MX-2 TIM

Guys/Gals of the TPU WCG Team- you're brethrens next door (F@H) need your help. If you have some spare hardware that is just laying around or currently not being used, lend them those wasted power and fold for TPU. We currently have a challenge from another great forum (Hardware Canucks) and they could really use all the help they can get. PM myself, El Fiendo, or Buck Nasty if you have any questions

Here is the link to the thread:

regarding gpus, anyone noticed, boinc suddenly uses cuda gpu for crunching too? anyone have info on that? should be the newest update....

EDIT: nah fuck, only for seti and gpugrid.... but it tries to fetch work... we will get our cuda support in WCG,i hope

Yeah I saw that too but like you found out it is only for those two projects. If it were able to do the other WUs it would be tempting to let one of my GPUs crunch for a little instead of fold...

Yes sir. Risking my balls for the sake of human kind

Chicken Patty · Sep 3, 2009

after 47 posts today, i'm outta this one. HOw the hell do I post so much :laugh:

Anyhow, in case you guys notice my #'s a little low everyday, it's because I am stability testing over night. I'm trying to pinpoint my random reboots at anything over 4-4.1 Ghz. I mean shit, lets say its not stable, but it would at least boot up. I ran wprime @ 4.5 Ghz without a hiccup, and now 4ghz won't even boot. Either something is going, or i'm doing something wrong that I was not doing wrong before. Gnight ladies.

your biostar blew. how nice

im careful to mine to not let happen the same

@CP
you know that sounds like an overheating issue?^^
do you have another psu? slowly i get to the point,where i just can say:
If the Heatkiller dont brings you improvements,and all volts are sufficient,
your board has some knack,or your proc is a monday model.

Sorry my specs were a tad outdated but fixed now.Actually it was my 9850 that was in an Asrock A780LM (cheapo of cheapest) board.

okay, if it even was THAT cheap :laugh:

$54.99, cheapest one i could find :laugh:

It did make it 3 weeks though.
I did just order another bio-star board for it though(140watt) so should have it back up by early next week

Velvet Wafer · Sep 4, 2009

remember cooling the mosfets. they get dead hot on me, and are probably one of the things responsible for crashes after a long time crunching

PaulieG · Sep 4, 2009

OK guys. I need someone to convince me that it's ok to leave my 3 crunchers going while I'm camping for the next 3 days. I hate the idea of keeping them running when no one will be here to check on them while we are gone, but I just got them back up...I'd hate to shut them down for days again.

Paul, what can go wrong bro?

I don't know. Guess I just get a bit paranoid...like one of my i7's would spontaneously burst into flames. :laugh:

Velvet Wafer · Sep 4, 2009

there is a shutdown feature in the bios, for the worst case, you know?^^
anyways,let em run! if a rig crashes, then theres something wrong, and should be looked at either

Chicken Patty · Sep 4, 2009

good point!

No shutting down the rig Paul :shadedshu

Velvet Wafer · Sep 4, 2009

never shut down an i7. that equals 2 from my quads :laugh:
