Jet, the AIW X1900's I've read are not good overclockers. Which, with all of those extra things on the PCB, I can understand it. Perhaps with an aftermarket cooler, if they make one for it.

I have read of people who have gotten them up to 700/700. I think the driver 6.10 isn't as good as the 6.5 driver. I think I will change back eventually. Before I changed the driver, I got up to 600/685, with no voltage increase.

F@H didn't count my last WU

. Oh well, I'll be in 6th until tommorrow

Heya,

I think there are some issues with the stats on F@H on extremeOC. Every team I checked out is experiencing a substantial drop in the amount of points/day and as Jet suggested, may not be getting the points for it. For me it's fine and I am sure that it will turn out just fine.

My bad,

here's the answer:

Quote:

What about hyperthreaded (HT) CPUs?
The SMP client was originally intended for multi-core CPUs, which generally do not support HT. For machines with 2 physical CPUs, we do recommend enabling HT for the SMP client as this presents the operating system with what looks like 4 logical processors (and our SMP client is intended for 4 processors). If you have 4 physical CPUs, we do not recommend using HT, as this presents the operating system with 8 logical processors, which will make the SMP client run inefficiently (especially since the logical processors coming from HT run much slower than the normal ones).

I'm back folding strong, finally.

Jet · 11-16-2006, 10:06 PM

Its funny, with one driver I got 1:14 (hh:mm) per percent, instead of 0:12 that I usually get. I was 55% done with one, and then I got a EE because of tampering with the clocks. I just need to be patient...

No problem. The main thing is that you are still helping out. We all appreciate it.

Now here's an update on the stats:

Date of last work unit 2006-11-17 03:19:34
Active CPUs within 50 days 129
Team Id 44358
Grand Score 406242
Work Unit Count 2248
Team Ranking (incl. aggregate) 943 of 46572

I can't wait for 800th place

Just around 20 days more, and lots less if we up our production to what it was

EDIT: 400,000!!!
