Re: Upload Lost: 129.74.85.15

9hrs later and still didnt show up...? I don't know about the details this time, but for one big outage a couple of years ago, I think it took a few days for the last of the backlog to be processed. But all of the points did eventually get awarded. Im just curious why the points from my other compu...

Re: Upload Lost: 129.74.85.15

notice the same thing this morning, had a ~9000 pointer upload this morning, and ~5hrs late it still isnt showing up on the stats. But, im not going to jump the gun yet, when the stats were FUBAR'd the other day, it took a while for everything to catch up, so i assume this one is going to (hopefully...

Re: Re: Low price GPUs

ahhhh never thought about the power issue, im so used to AGP/PCIE cards with external power instead of robbing it from the board. Its been at least 15 years since ive used a PCI vid card LOL I think that alone would be alot more concern than the PCI bus being a bottleneck (which is highly possible w...

Re: Cannot download WU

It still sucks that a $60 card can blow the doors off of something 10x the price LOL But, this has also got me thinking... Is it possible to run multiple PCI GPUs and fold with them all? For a $60 card, if it can lay down 5k ppd, why not throw 4 of them in for a $240 machine that can throw down 20k ...

Re: Cannot download WU

Wow, thats insane for a 'crappy' little PCI card! If a ~$60 card (just checked a GT610 and it was $59) can pump out ~6000ppd, thats definitely the way to go. especially since the CPU itself could never compare to that! But, now that worries me even more... My current pair of 8800GTX's in my other co...

Low price GPUs

Its been so long since ive looked at the thing, but i do believe its only got an AGP 4/8x slot, no PCIe. Back in the day i used to have a decent card in there, but gave it to a buddy when his burnt up (and at the time wasnt using this computer at all), thus the super sweet mach64 card thats in it no...

Re: Low price GPUs

figured the CPU was a little on the low end LOL

It wasnt anything spectacular when it was new!

Just curious, would the CPU still be an issue if i threw a decent GPU in there and tried to just use the GPU? Or is the CPU still going to cause me grief?

Cannot download WU

Hi Guys, having a minor issue which i assume is due to the computer... Years ago, i had used this computer for folding, and have just dug it out of the closet to give it another shot. Installed V7 and it wont download the WU! Searching around, i have seen similar issues where guys have had to wait m...
