Glad to hear you got it working. There are skins for BOINC? I guess that's a stupid question but I'm curious.

Yes but available only if download WCG boinc manager, just save skin folder and move it boinc folder of the version that you have. Change skin maybe is silly but those default skin are bore.

That's cool...didn't realize those existed. But I always use the Advanced view anyways

Not silly at all. I've used different skins with WinAmp. I always go back to the original since it's easier for me to navigate and understand, but I can see the attraction, definitely.

Yeah, I always use advanced view too - so I guess the skins are only for the basic view. With so many boinc users you would think adv. would be skinned too. {shrug}

It's a good idea...I like advanced view since all of my systems are at least 2 threads, and I like to see what is happening on all of the WUs @ once

Passed a personal stone tonight, 20k WUs

And a personal record of 524(!) WUs today, and my 2nd-best day ever for total points

I'm getting wiped on the floor by Athlon and soon enough ocgmj. Damn you i7 users, damn you!

I see what you did there.

Welcome! Guess I've been living under a rock since OCA was news to me. I'm not really into oc'ing, but I thought I had at least heard of most of the forums - obviously I was wrong. Those rankings are pretty impressive.

OCA is a great place, feels like home since it's only entry upon referral. I really thank the day that ricks69 (username might be wrong) told me to join. I was once member of the month for OCA, I returned like a whole bunch of submissions on the BOT and they had just released a new points system so I jumped like 100 points :laugh; I'll return soon to them, benching is in my blood, I've just been in the shits lately.

My rig was down yesterady as my building need teh power off for a cpl hours to replace some heating stuff. Also I forgot to turn WCG back on till this morning.....

One more thing, I like the new WCG badges and the star system This way everyone is recognized and the hardcore can show off their shiny 5 stars for us to see

I think the stars were bugged though, that should be fixed shortly. But they do look great

Show off your WCG farm

Are we gonna have another contest for WCG in the future? Id like to win me another crunching rig

I'd venture on yes, but no idea on when




My i7 is going to turn in a couple dozen WUs this afternoon, but after that, I'm going to be gone until Monday PM, so it's going to be off until then I guess I won't see my points down that much

If the new architectures from Intel and AMD can deliver better performance at a decent price point I *might* replace the dedicated i7 internals and start another contest. But will have to wait and see and hope my financial status continues to allow it.

From what I see the Sandy Bridge CPUs don't really present much of an improvement over i3/i5/i7, but hopefully Bulldozer is something special

 

[Chicken Patty]

Bulldozer is what I'm waiting for.

I have enough parts for one - almost. Cases cost too much to ship, but I've got mobo's (AMD), chips (940, 9600, Athlon II 4200+) and a bunch of DDR2-800 to 1333 memory.

 

[Chicken Patty]

I can donate my tech bench, it's pretty small when assembled.

 

[[Ion]]

I might be able to get some part(s) from the X4 955 rig to donate

 

[Chicken Patty]

Keep us posted, I can provide the tech bench as a case. The crunched would at least run very cool

 

[[Ion]]

Sure thing, let's see what else we get, and if we still need things, I can try to fill in

 

[Chicken Patty]

Thanks bro

 

[[Ion]]

Very glad to help how ever I can

 

[Chicken Patty]

That's the spirit!
