Folding on the QX9650...
Has anyone crunched #'s on this bad boy yet? Mine came in the mail today. Just need to get a board that will run it stably. I'm very impressed with the heatsink that came with it. Looks like a Zalman 7xxx series, but much nicer! Pics are on the intel cpu portion of the board on the cooling a QX9650 thread...

It should be extremely potent on the high bandwidth/cache intensive WUs like p2608/9 and perhaps on the quad only WUs, p305x. I can't wait to see the results.

Striker Extreme is having some issues with it. I've upgraded to the latest BIOS, still no POST yet. Swapping procs to get it booted again to see what's going on. ![]() Gigabyte board is ordered, and on its way, that should solve it all...

Thanks Nitteo, after spending WAY too many hours with that board last night and reaching the frustration level, I'm just going to have to wait for the gigabyte board to arrive... Stirker is NOT "45 nm ready" as it claims... I did try about 4 different speeds and flavors of RAM (which all worked with the G0 quad, but not with the 9650) in the end, I just think it doesn't support it. DQ6 left newegg today, should be here on Friday. At least I'll have an excuse not to go Black Friday shopping!

Me too on the regret part, it's really been a POS, which is why I'm still running an old 975 BX2 as my main rig. I'm running BIOS version: 1305, the latest. "Support Intel® next generation 45nm Multi-core CPU - Intel® Quad-core CPU Ready" yeah right.... I see the BIOS was last updated WAY back in August... so I'm not holding my breath. Now I've got to play the waiting game... it hurts. And drop more $$ on DDR-3 memory...

Doesn't look good for 680i. The new platform may be another story, though.

Yup, agreed on the 680i. I read similar threads elsewhere as well. Luckily, I've already sold my Striker... It'll find a new home with it's aging QX6700 to someone else who can love it and fold with it. (Sadly not on T32...) The DQ6 hopefully will be here Friday along with new mems...

LOL. I'm just hoping that this next round of stuff from Intel will be a big ppd increase for all of us. The E8x00 series should put up some good numbers too. (Will likely get a good idea once I can get this thing up and running) 6MB of cache and a likely low to mid 4 Ghz clock on the Duals should provide a lot more ppd than the 4MB E6x00 series...

That's actually a pretty good clock on the Northwood. I had an old 2.8 that ran like a champ at 3.2 for a long time. Actually it is folding right now in my brother-in-law's machine. ![]() I'm headed for Turkey day this weekend back to my parents' place. I'm replacing their Pentium-3 500 that they've been running for years at 667...with an E6600 that will hopefully clock to around 3.4 and put up some good folding #'s. No SMP on that one though as it doesn't stay up long enough to complete units between games of solitarie and surfing Ebay...

Still a great showing for a Northwood. I'm still up in Frigid North at my parents place for the holidays... but their E6600 is now Borg-ed and running. I show the board and memory scheduled for delivery today, so it'll be there when I get back on Monday. I'm hoping by Monday night to get you some #'s I want to see as well!

No need to hide in shame. I have a Celly D 331 running stock at 2672 getting me around 90 PPD, and a P4 530J running 3600 (240x15) which seems to range in PPD depending on WU. I also just borged a P4 non HT 1.8 last week. Adding the PS3 into the mix gets my PPD where it is at right now. Will...I hope everything works out. I too am anxious to see some numbers.

Temp under load is 47C with Zalman 9700!
Stock voltage shows up in BIOS as 1.15V at stock speed under FULL folding load I'm at 47C... ambient is 21C. Idle is 30C? I had to triple check that, but that's it! I'm going to tweak for a while and see how high it goes and then get some more folding #'s. I'll swap over to VMWare/Linux when I get done and get #'s there too. So far, compared with the old QX6850 it's MUCH cooler and I think on this WU, if remember right about 20% faster...

I agree. I want to see what it can do at 3.5ghz at least, or higher. Push, push, push.
