Had a PC down for a week while I was putting together my new E6600, I got it all up and running it is almost pushing 4ghz on water cooling! I started a gromac last night and it is almost done, this thing is super fast. I got 13 seconds on super pie (1M) now thats what I am talking about, LOL!
 
Is it stable? You should NEVER run Folding on an unstable computer, as you will send back incorrect results. I would say Prime95, on both cores, for 5 hours minimum.

Stable? LOL I ran cpu burn in for a whole day and my temp never gets above 35 degrees Celsius, I would say thats pretty stable :D
 
In the past 24 hours we have passed 17 teams :)

We are on schedule for passing 1000th place in about 36 hours, and 800th place in roughly 20 days or so. Just let me start folding w/ my X1900 AIW on Monday or late Sunday night :) :) :D
 
I haven't been able to really run F@H for like...the whole week. My damn computer keeps having LSA Shell [Export Version] Errors. I'm on my third reinstall of XP in 16 hours. I thought it was a game (Earth 2160) that I was installing...but then it did it, now I haven't installed Command and Conquer: The First Decade, hasn't done it yet. Though, I've only installed my audigy sound drivers, too. I'm going to use, then wait till tomorrow after class to start slowly adding things in. Oh, I added in Firefox as well. Bah...I want to build a new computer! And just put this one in the corner running Linux and F@H, and only have to check it once a month or so.
 
According to the Team Overtake graph, we're set to break the one million points mark on the 1st February next year. It seems almost hard to believe considering we haven't even broken the 500,000 mark, but so is the staggering progress of our brilliant team and its ever-increasing production rate! I think we can knock than down to mid-January if we work at it!

And only 13 places to get us in the top 1,000 teams! I can almost taste the bottle of e-champagne! :D
 
Depends on your definition of pretty soon. :D

Doesn't hurt to be overly optimistic. :rolleyes:

edit:
Aaack! No! We went down! Nooooooooooooooo

Low temp doesnt mean that your computer is stable = it does not make any errors. Run Prime95 on both cores for at least one, better for 5 hours and if it passes, it is stable. Download prime95, extract to two diffrent dirrrectories, run prime from both dirs and choose just stress. then choose Options -> CPU and set both available memory to about 1/3 of your total RAM. Then choose torture test, blend test and wait :) I would also recommend you to run memtest86+ for one pass. Download iso image, burn, boot and wait till it makes one pass without errors. I do this with every computer I build and after that, I can say it is rock stable.
If your comp passes both tests, it would be very fast machine, gratz :)

Hmm. My work unit still won't transmit, even giving F@H a few days to get their servers back up.

Turning my firewall off doesnt help either.
