specs and questions
Posted: Sat Jul 02, 2011 5:35 am
hello everyone,
i have heard of F@H, but never really looked into it until today. bored, tired of playing games and being an impulsive person, i downloaded the first client i saw and began to run it... after doing a little more research, i believe i had the single core app b/c it took about 6 hours to run 250 (whatever), i downloaded the GPU3 app. i am currently at 61% of 50,000,000, total time said to be about 3.5 hrs at 661 ns/day. much better than the first
after joining the forum and reading a little more, i saw people talking about the beta V7. sooooo.....
1) if i get the beta V7 should i uninstall the other 2?
1a) should get V7, or just keep the GPU3 one?
2) will changing the machine ID screw with the data... i.e. system recognition, data downloads ? original DL was machine 1, the GPU3 is set to machine 2? <--- i dont know if this question makes sense.
3) is there any way to close the client, and resume where u left off? not just pause/resume, but after a reboot?
general specs:
AMD X4 955 @ 3.8
PNY GTX 460
8 gigs @ 1600
win7 64 professional
on a side note, just b/c i saw people talking about this. i will not be running this 24/7. i do a lot of video editing, digital compositing, and 3D modeling. unless u think i can
im sure i could have found these answers somewhere in the forums, but im lazy... and its late... and im tired, also i wouldnt have a chance to say hi
i can provide any additional data that would further help in answering my questions. i will also be reading more in the forums the next couple of days, so be easy on the flame
thanks
