Re: Daily stats update timed 15:00

lol Jason at EOC (a great guy, if his e-correspondance is any indication) has nothing useful to say yet except, "Stanford updates their stats in real-time, and we here at EOC only update every 3 hours." This statement blew me away, as it indicates a vast misunderstanding of how the stats h...

Re: Daily stats update timed 15:00

I am currently looking around for answers to this question. Can an Admin or somebody from Pande/Stanford please comment on the delay period between when an update on Stanford's servers is completed, and when it's captured (for lack of any more technical a term) by the stats update sites out there? I...

Re: CPU Architecture and FAH

Lol nah, if AMD can't compete, they'll just whine until somebody makes Intel pay to keep their operation afloat. Thank you, EU >.<

Re: CPU Architecture and FAH

Thanks, Bruce, and well put! Just picked up a(nother) used i7, plan on putting it and a 295 online as soon as I can afford RAM and a PSU in addition to what I've got running now. Any word on how i9 Intels will perform? similarly to i7 (with scale-up for additional cores) or will there be an improvem...

Project: 5797 (R22, C87, G8)

Working at half speed. Client and entire machine have been restarted multiple times. Still yielding about twice the TPF of other 787 WUs.

#1 of 3 GTX 280s/OC'd shaders, 190.38whql drivers, core i7 920 @3.66GHz, Vista 64

Ditto. Vista 64, GTX 280, fails before a single computation is performed.

Re: CPU Architecture and FAH

I'm fairly confident in my understanding of my PPD/$ ratios on these various levels of technology, I guess my question revolves directly around a lack of understanding of efficiency/architecture. What I'm gathering is that a quad core is more capable than a dual core (2x cores=2x work), although as ...

Re: CPU Architecture and FAH

I am awed by the depth of understanding present in this forum. I stand to learn a lot! I suppose I would like, for a moment, to dumb this conversation down and ask the point-blank question: Other than in terms of pure PPD, am I gaining anything (besides a heftier power bill) by utilizing an Intel VT...
