Re: Supermicro Shows Off 80-Core Xeon Server

Not only do they have 80 physical cores (10 cores across 8 processor chips), but each core has 2 threads - so technically, 160 logical CPUs!!!

Re: Project: 6502 (R0, C 589, G 41) EUE

Run one thread per logical CPU, so if it's single core, with no hyperthreads, then 1 should be fine. Sorry for assuming the problem was with your new rig. :oops:

Re: Project: 6502 (R0, C 589, G 41) EUE

You've been getting a number of EUE's with your rig. I haven't seen one. I suggest you confirm the stability of your system before you proceed to fold any further. Download IntelBurnTest v2.50 (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/sho ... p?t=197835), set it up for Maximum memory, 8 threads, 30 passe...

Re: Projects 10113, 10114 and 10115, immediate EUEs

I, too, have an i7 2600K. I would just stick with -smp (or -smp 8). If you're running both CPU and GPU folding, the aggregate points may be better anyway, even if each core is impeded slightly by the other. I've tweaked my configuration since I first got my new rig. There are still many things you c...

Re: Stanford please, stir The WU Pot

I'm getting a steady 14931 PPD with my overclocked GTX560 Ti crunching those P6801's. Of course the rare 109xx and 112xx would gain me around 19K PPD, but I'm still very happy with these numbers.

Re: Trials & Tribulations of Win7 SP1 Upgrade ...

I upgraded to Win7 SP1 yesterday and I started getting 'spikey' GPU utilization with the GPU client (FahCore_15). When I change the GPU client process priority to AboveNormal, then the GPU utilization is a constant 99%. I've updated the WinAFC config file to bump the priority of FahCore_15 executabl...

Re: 36 hour work unit. normal?

Using the folding calculator here -> http://www.linuxforge.net/bonuscalc2.php

It's about 7K points, or 4600 PPD.

I deleted the project from my queue and changed my machine id. I got assigned a new/different WU and it was successful.

Re: Project: 6880 (Run 451, Clone 13, Gen 34)

I should also add that this is a dual core CPU running the classic client (not SMP). There is only 1GB of memory on this machine (cannot change this). It's my understanding that the classic client does not have excessive memory requirements.

Project: 6880 (Run 451, Clone 13, Gen 34)

It seems stuck after 49% on the same error. See log below. I deleted the queue, work directory, and unitinfo file and restarted but it gets stuck at the same point. This is a new machine, stock settings. It's serving as the NAS for the home network but it has plenty of spare cycles to run one instan...

Using FahMon version 2.3.99.4 on Windows 7 64bit. I have an iMac client storing it's work data and logs on a share accessible to Windows.
