Are the dual core rigs as per your sig?
How long have you been running the GPU clients?
(nice car btw )
Assimilator1
Received the PowerCooler 1950pro 512mb card yesterday & installed into pc.
Temp reported under ATI is 43c
Card is currently NOT overclocked.
The 2 F@H workfiles should complete within a day - already have deactivated running as a service - when done will not d/l any more workfiles until I install F@H's GPU program.
BTW, below is the skinny of the build this gpu is taking up space in! (PC is ONLY used for crunching - no games or other productive s/w)
- Generic (? - its that old!) ATX Midtower case with 80mm fans front, aft & topside
- 430w Antec TrueBlue psu
- CD/DVD burner: Plextor PX716A
- Floppy drive
- Harddrive: Seagate 80GB sata drive
- Memory: Ballistic 6400 (2 512mb sticks)
- O/S: WinXP Home Edition
- No speakers/sound card attached
- No printer attached
- Mainboard: ASRock AM2 NF6G-VSTA
- Processor: AMD am2 X2 3600 Bainbrige (O/C'ing at 2.382Ghz)
- Processor Cooler: Zalman's 9700
- Temps: Processor~ 33.5c @ 2481rpm
------------Mainboard~35c
------------Hard Drive~36c
------------Power Supply Unit~33.5c
Temps in NYC lately: 90's F

Thanks for the info TB ,seems like your GPU is running pretty cool at 60C ,mine hits ~70C when playing Guild Wars.I'll let you know what it hits running F@H.
Btw what % CPU power is the GPU client taking?
If my calculations are correct:
8 min 30 sec = 560 ppd
8 min 05 sec = 588 ppd
What kind of ppd did you average running two regular clients?
The server seems to be working. I had a gpu WU upload and get credited today.
Check the gpu FAHlog.txt to see if the gpu client was able to connect to the server or if the WUs are waiting in the queue.
When you set up the gpu client, did you change the user name and team number from default? Did you change the Machine ID to something different than what is being used for the cpu client?

CRAP!!! I just checked the cfg client user file and my intel is not listed! I swear, I thought I entered TurtleBlue for name & 198 for Team Anandtech - DOUBLE CRAP!!!
Thank god I caught this at segment 97 before it sent another score to "Anonymous" What a maroon I am - I should be drummed out of da team!
this will be a SLOW build as finances allows
I wouldn't bother buying bits & pieces at a time & storing them for a latter build ,by the time you get to building it you could of bought some of the same parts for much less money or get something faster for the same.
Unless you meant get a few bare essentials to get it crunching with better parts latter to get it upto full speed?
And no you don't deserve to be drummed out the team
Btw have you used other programs to test that your GPU o/c is truely stable? (like ATITool) ,I hope so! .........I guess not reading about your failed WUs!
Don't trust any automatic overclocking programs that don't use some sort of long term stress testing programs.
Ah , a month or so isn't that long a time then
Dang it! ,you know what? I tried to use ATITool v0.26 to o/c my GPU & the instant I touch 'find max core' it black screens my rig & locks it solid! ,I've tried 4 times (turning off powerstrip etc) but it's no good.
Doh! ,I've just read this at the ATItool page:-
Changes in this version:
Full support for all ATI and NVIDIA cards. Only X1950 Pro overclocking is not supported.
Damn ,looks like the v0.27 betas support 1950 Pros ,if I can actually get it!
