I was just looking at the Berkeley page and saw that. You suck. ;) Got your new one going, eh? Those numbers looked like they jumped kinda quick. :eek:

I'm maxed out until Friday when the DDR comes in for the new system. If this new Enermax PSU will make a difference, maybe I can finally push over 124 on the 1100. Hmm... I was about to go to bed, but I think I'll go ahead and install it. :D

Don't stress yourself too much, remember I'm trying to catch you and I've no new, faster components to install.

Who's stressed?!?!?!? :D You're moving up nicely, eobard. I'm watching you and a few others nearby in the rearview mirror. All these people passing me is why I'm building another system. :)

I may have to concede defeat here. (I hate that.) As of the last update, there's a 27 WU difference. Try as it might, my one good machine isn't going to make up that ground before those two machines get to 500... unless the Goner worm tracks you down. But I wouldn't wish that on a fellow team member. :)

A little more time and I'll be ready to make another go a passing you, deez.

Actually I haven't got the new chip in yet...arriving Thursday. Before I was crunching just on my machine at home cele566@850 and at work Athlon 1000 @ stock speed but I have 2 other comps at home I dont run SETI on normally.

What PSU are you currently using on your 1100? I have an Antec 300W do you think thats enough to hit 124 if I get a good chip?

hope so...trying a new burn-in method this time

I was using a codegen. It seemed to be getting a bit flakey so I bought an Enermax 350. I stuck it in last night but no big change. I was able to run Windows for a while at 122 and 1.95V but it didn't like it. Back down now to 120 and 1.9, though I did run it there at 1.85 so I may have regained some voltage room. It's looking more and more like I'll have to vidpin. :(

well my board is an old BX board and the only settings above 100 are 104, 106, 108, 110 (1/3) AND 124, 133 (1/4)

so I need a good chip

I had my cele566 wired with a strand from an IDE cable but after a few months it started to unravel. Make sure you check it every once and a while. The good news is that after I took out the wire I was able to run stable at 1.7v rather than 1.85 --- no wire necessary now

Congrats on that! I hate losing, but I'm glad you're hitting it. When it became apparent that I was going down in flames, I started on some maintenance (screwy HD, moving systems, duct experiments, etc), so I'm probably much farther behind than I was. BUT... I got the other system put together today and it's crunching now, so I'll be catching you in a couple of weeks (I hope).

BTW, don't forget to run the bench file after you hit your mark. With your processing times, it shouldn't do much harm to you total. :)

glad you said something about the bench I didn't read the sticky. I will probably run it overnight or something on the celeron

Good luck with the mods...the last time I tried ducting and increasing airflow I sucessfully increased system temps by 10C *grin* dont even ask how

If you can afford it get yourself a nice Antec tower....I never wanna use a cheapo case again

LOL I'm trying. When I saw your production drop last week or the one before, I thought surely I'd have you passed by now. :) I have two more systems in pieces that I should have ready to go in about two weeks: a P2-400 and an AMD-1.33. I MUST PASS!. :D
