As you can see, I am the current highest producer. My average was around 250. but since adding a x1950pro graphics card to one of my pcs that has now risen by 400 points. The only problem is i cant seem to have the cpu and gpu clients running at the same time:(

Im ranked 31st now. Wont be moving upto the top10 any time soon as i only use Folding program when im on the internet when at home. For about 2months i left my computer on 24/7 but my parents started saying there ESB bill was high and this was all because of my computer :P

Just use my crappy amd2500+ chip for folding also.

Also i like to add there are alot of inactive people in the Boards folding team.

Pah dont listen to them. I have 2pc's and a laptop constantly on folding. And there is hardly any difference in the bill.


As for the inactives yes, there are quite a few. But it matters not. As the few of us that are folding are more then doing there share for them.

I was active for the whole of a week, then I get Wow at home and find it refuses to play with FOH running, and then the proxy in work takes a freaker(password change ever 4 weeks) when it starts getting 7 machines trying to bypass it using the wrong proxy one morning.

So F it. I'v got better things to do.

The faw knowledge base is a hard thing to read indeed.......

Krazy... have you ever tried the console no frills version? I find that using the all dancing all singing client pisses around with some games etc. Try the no BS console version. You should get a few more points too.

Maybe you'd be interested in trying another app... like worldcommunitygrid or another??

Why not? Is that on the opty rig in your sig? You do know that the graphical client needs a full CPU core to run it aswell. In future versions, we might see CPU usage go down.. But at the moment... GPU folding = GPU + One CPU Core.

Anti

Yeah i know that. But for some reason it just wont run 2 clients. I tried the fah forums, but as usual they were less then helpfull.

So.... will it run either client on its own. Also.. remind me. Opty? Dual core? Not up on AMD chips much.:D

Anti

It will run either by their own, but not together. Ive tried settinf different affinitys but no luck. And yeah the opty is a dual core.

I might go back to the console version on my home rig, but work is just a no go area atm. Proxy just freaks out after a short period and blocks the FOH client.

Just had a thought on this issue....A bit late perhaps

It's not down to affinity...the CPU will look after this itself. Yo need to make sure both clients are using different machine ID's (set when you first start the client or using the -configonly flag). Also run both clients from different folders and make sure they have the -local flags set for each client.

Don't know why it took me this long to think about it....or even why I was still thinking about it

Well good to see the top 2 has barely changed, though deranged finally took the no. 1 spot......

I jsut checked and I am flying up the charts...
Im ranked 100 FOH is always at work though...

Anti

Since the lack of internet at home i am down 4 clients. And the lack of my x1950pro means no huge points And the SMP clien has stopped working on my c2d laptop

But, i will be back with a vengance.

hopeful

I was wondering what had happened to you Anti...when will you get net access back at home?

I'm running my two PC's flat out....the SMP client has been amazingly stable for me....rebooted the PC it runs on for the first time in 20 days last night and that was only because I updated software that required a reboot.

I think I'm going to have to swap out the skt 939 board in my 2nd PC for another Core 2 Duo soon....I feel the need for more points Hopefully if I'm careful my better half won't even notice!

Anti

Hahah. Good luck with that.

Yeah, i moved to rathmines, so im waiting on BT to connect me up. IT was meant to happen last week, but BT being BT they take their time.

I just picked up a abit Fatal1ty board last night, now im just waiting on a c2d and some ram and a case, graphics card.... Jesus... The money spending never stops

Any updates?

Anti

looks like everyone has stopped folding.

deRanged

I've scaled back massively - real life is interfering unfortunately.
I figure I've built enough of a lead to take a break for a while.

gline

ive also cut back, but ive always got at least 1 machine still going, i must install [EMAIL="f@h"]f@h[/EMAIL] on the work lab machines I also use [EMAIL="f@h"]f@h[/EMAIL] on the ps3 now and again.

Not everyone Granted, I only have two machines at the minute, but that will increase over time.

I would too if my ps3 worked

Also, since i left microsoft they must have noticed i borged a few machines there And the pc's in here are all p4's so their not even worth installing [EMAIL="f@h"]f@h[/EMAIL] on.

what? the majority of my machines are P4's. the the ones that aren't are P3s. be nice to the pentium line.

Anti

I feel doorty not folding on a dual or quad core

deRanged

really? I think folding on multicore is overrated.
