I'm really impressed with the performance of the nVidia client. So, you're folding with your 8800GT only? If so, you're producing more points than I did with the Q6600. That's really good.

I'm having problems with my Gigabyte board, so I'm gonna RMA it. In the meantime, I have a Rampage Formula on the way (should have it installed Wednesday), and that should give me around 3.6GHz with the Q9450. :D

I'm going to install the nVidia client and see what kind of production I can get out of my 8800 GTS. You can use the G80 cards, correct?

ok i really dislike my gpu temps of over 90 so im gonna stop folding.
it isnt really the end of the world, running it that hot.. but id prefer not to.
i have messed around with having heaps of fans in different places.. but its just not working and theres no way i can afford aftermarket cooling.

ah well. it was fun for a while. :(

I think you can throttle the rate it works at back to an exceptable level. Mine don't overheat so I never looked into how to set the priority on them.

hmmmm yes but id rather it wasnt slower haha.

anyway ill change the setting and see if the temps change much.

where i am the room temp itself is usually around 35-45*C haha

so i cant really manage that low temps especially with the 8800gt's sillly single slot cooler

I can't keep the F&H running all day anymore thanks to summer. Even with the AC on in the house, and the side of the computer opened a bit for more airflow... that only lowers it a few degrees.

What client are you using? Did you register as "Respital?"

Download FahMon. Install the program in your F@H installation folder. That will help you track your progress and statistics.

which client are you running?
if there is an icon in the taskbar then right click on it and select status and then "user statistics"

on that page you should see how many WU's you have done and so on.

also, did you fill in a team number when configuring the client?

Yeah, if you're using a GUI client, then you can find stats information in the tray. If you're using a command line client - like SMP - then FahMon works pretty well. If you're running Vista, you can also try out the F@H Gadget.
