    My money would be Nibbler, but I've not seen him around much lately. Been VERY quiet. Must be busy with stuff. Is it exam time or something?

    Yes, I'm only folding GPU, and only when I'm at home atm. Although if there was more of an inscentive I'd crank it up....

    Re: Folding Chit-Chat

    You're alive!!!

    I've stopped folding for a bit, new client just crashed on me again losing nearly 40% of a WU. Until I get a new HSF to bump this X6 upto about 3.5/3.6 I can't justify the heat

    I got more from my bloody GTX260 than I've got from this new CPU/GPU! madness!

    Get something like a cheap xigmatek HDT-S1283. Dead silent but really good performers. Mine was like £15.

    Re: Folding Chit-Chat

    Hey all,

    Been mad at work (moving offices) so not had time to check much.

    I will post my system specs when i get a spare 10mins.

    In other news i have been putting off replacing my sandybridge motherboard but i feel i have no choice now as i am really starting to see the impact of slower data rates on my two other drives i have hooked up to the SATA II ports...grrr....so in anticipation i went out and bought some decent thermal paste for when i have to re-seat the cpu heat-sink, what a time-sink .

    Also had my first DEWA (Dubai Electricity & Water authority) bill since some serious folding has taken place....lets just say my bill shot up by just shy of £100..

    Back in the UK for a week on Monday so will leave it running 24/7 and hope the router doesn't freak out.

    Re: Folding Chit-Chat

    Nice. I've just "broken" my i7 970 rig for parts for sale and assembled my Sandycrack setup.

    Already up to 4.5Ghz on 1.3v and barely breaking 45C (on all 8 threads)! I really need to set up the folding client now as Union is starting to show as an overtake. To compound things my 980X rig seems to have locked and needed the folding client restarting.

    The server rebuild is coming soon folks, at which point my 980X will be going up for sale and my 970 will be left on at 4.3Ghz permanently folding which should put me back ahead of Union.

    For anyone interested, stats should go up later tonight

    Re: Folding Chit-Chat

    They sure do overclock nicely. I just entered the numbers out of CustomPC and fired it up first go....4.5Ghz without breaking a sweat.

    I've replaced the gubbins from my RIIE rig so I've still got the dual loop set up, but it's running MUCH cooler.

    I've also got a Vapochill PE unit sitting gathering dust which I'd like to employ at some point, but not until I've done some more testing and finished some of the projects that I've got lined up...

    The stats are taking me ages to compile with so many people having contributed. If I go to the extreme-overclocking site and just pull out the active users, this only shows those who have submitted in the past week or so. Consequently some people who have donated earlier in the month are missed off when I filter by active users, so I have to extract the active users, and then go through the existing users that I have work for and check that they are all accounted for. It just takes time.... it was 3 hours last night just to update the numbers, but at least it's done now. Just need to copy and paste the numbers into a thread and then put my social commentary around it... If I don't get chance tonight, i'll email the file to work, and do it at lunchtime.

    Which version of the client are you running - Is this on the GPU or the CPU client?

    Re: Folding Chit-Chat

    Oh noes, my position is under threat:



    I mean seriously, EOC, 10.8 years?!

    Apparently I should pass dave87 in 1.3weeks, which I guess means I'll break 500K around then too. Would've been sooner but all these new 1M units have really cut back my ppd...
