Team Conquest List:
[oldtable] Hardware.no |3.3 years |up from 1.6 years.
Overclock.net |2.7 years |down from 4.7 years.
[H]ardOCP |9 months |up from 8.8 months. [/table]
(Lower is better)

Team Threat List:
[oldtable]TSC! Russia| 1.9 years| up from 1.7 years.[/table]
(Higher is better)
If you think of this like a car race, Hardware.no is beating us off the line. We cannot let them get too far up before we top out our speed. We are gaining on Overclock.net and we are neck in neck with the [H]ord. We are starting to pull away from TSC! but only just. If you have the production waiting to go, perhaps it is time to get it going.

Restarted my rig for folding. Cooled off here and need to warm up my office in the basement! Figured I'd share that

 

[JLK03F150]

We had a cool snap & I started up 3 systems. I had to shut the 2 in the office down because it warmed back up & the office got HOT.
Also I'm having a problem with the RX 480 PC, it has been locking up while folding. I need to run a 3rd party app to control the video card fans, because I think it might be getting too hot after a period of time. Hopefully I can get it sorted and going again.
I'm going have to wait a little longer on the GTX 970 because that FX 8320 really throws off the heat, even though I don't have the CPU folding.

jlk03f150 and I are within 100 mile of each other and the warm up is nice but makes getting a pair of 1080's to sing and dance about like training a cat to be more equine....
boost 3.0 is the dickens when you have 2 high powered cards in one box.
with the 1060s in one box you can just crank up the fans, crank up the clocks and let fly, with the 1080s it just ain't that easy, so far it's best just to crank up the fans and let them fly but, I'm starting to look for a modded bios the get around boost 3.0.

My PPD may get a bit of a boost when my workstation does not need this.......

WOW! If only my work would believe that I really need one of those.

 

[Soulcatcher668]

It was part of the deal if I agreed to head up a new division at the company. The Quadro was the cheap part of it.

If you can show your management that it will make them money to spend the money.... most decent management will do it.


I must say that I was like a kid on Christmas when it arrived today. The non-tech people were looking at me a little sideways.

Just tell them it's so you can play Solitaire better

Congrats on the promotion.

Our problem is IT, which is outsourced to a third party. I'm after spending $100k on new data acquisition systems from National Instruments and they are giving us low level Dell Precision's with a single 8/GB stick of RAM. Each system will be sending data to the PC up to 3.2GB/sec. Even the design engineers just get basic Quadro cards from 3 years ago.

 

[superducky]

Jesus. I deal with 1553 cards from NI all the time...always the worst part of my job. Condolences.

 

[don256us]

Our IT management just switched back to integrated Intel graphics. The last round of computer installs they got discrete graphics but not any more.

 

[JrClocker]

For standard desktop deployment (low power users) we are using NUCs (even in the conference rooms).

What's funny is that some folks wanted to be able to work from home with the NUCs...so our IT people got them "NUC Sacks"!

You're just jealous you didn't think of it first...I know I was!

I don't mind working with the NI hardware, except for calibrating all the 120 thermocouple channels on each system.

In better news, our manager just put $10k in next years capital plan for a single high powered PC, designed and build by me . I think a lot of folding will be required to burn in the system and also to maintain it while it's not in use

Gee, I wonder what name and team it will be folding for?

We all know it'll be team32 but as for name, that hasn't been decided yet. I guess it'll depend on which team member gives me the best bribe. I mean donation
