Hey, I've been running seti on boinc for a while but am not part of any team. Does anyone know how to change and join the oc team?

wow Im a nub, for anyone that doesnt know just log into your account for seti@home then go to community, go to teams, search for overclockers.com and scroll down to where it says "join team" click that and you're all set.

:welcome: to the SETI team.

Yes, the BOINC client program makes most changes, easy to do.

Overclockers.com has four distributed computing teams that I know of, and support:

1) Folding @ Home: Studies how our proteins fold.

2) SETI: The search for others in the universe

3) Rosetta: Also studies protein folding, concentrating on their final configuration.

4) World Community Grid: studies a broad range of specific diseases, and other health related projects. You choose the projects you want to donate to: Muscular Dystrophy, Hemorrhagic fevers & Hepatitis C, a Cancer study, and Clean Water, for example.

All of the above use the BOINC client, except Folding @ Home, which has it's own client program. All of the above have their own sub forum on Overclockers.com, except World Community Grid. Each project has it's own forum or forums on their web site, dedicated to their project.

Several of us donate some computer time, often a significant amount of computer time, to more than one of these projects.

So you have choices! :clap:

ASRock Extreme 3 870 motherboard
AMD Phenom II 1055t processor
Gigabyte SuperOC 5770 graphics card
G. Skill 8gb DDR3 1600mhz Ripjaws RAM

Actually buying most of the stuff from a member on here just have to wait till Thursday to get it...I'm pretty stoked.

Just remember, when you go to overclock your 1055T do NOT crank the volts up all that much. Some people on here are under the impression that 0.1v above the top of the factory range is safe. I've been crunching with multiple AMD rigs, 24/7 for 5 years and I'll tell you flat out - if you want it to run more than a year or so you've got to have some respect for the hardware. :)

So what would you say is a safe range to put it at? .05v over?

Maybe that much, depending on how high your load core temp is. The old chips had a very small published voltage range, usually only 0.05v wide (i.e., 1.30-1.35v), but the new ones have a much wider "stock" range, 1.25-1.475 vCore for the 1055T. You can exceed that for short spurts but Crunching long-term much outside that range could drastically shorten the life span. CPU-NB voltage can be as high as 1.225v with the published range of 1.05-1.175v - again, assuming you have good temps (usually no more than 55°Cą load core temp).

my internet cut out like 10 min after I went to work, so managed to get a whopping 120 credits in a 12hr span...current rank is 123 (among active users). lets see if I cant up that a bit

Ill probably leave it at default till I can get all my cooling installed in a couple weeks then dink with it see what I can get it to do.

BAH!!! I tell my components exactly how much abuse they will tolerate, and they love it! Electro-shock therapy works great on computers...
