I knew the flames would come.... I just knew it. First off, I never once said that the site compramised it's honesty, NOT ONCE. All I said was that it may open the door to speculation. I just tend to question things versus just taking them at face value. I never said mike c. sold out, but that it me...

Thanks wgragg, that was my main point. I was wondering if participation on the SPCR team would bias the reviews. Kind of like when you read TCO reports on Linux vs. Windows when the people doing the analysis are partly or wholly funded by Microsoft. I like the information I get from this site but wo...

I dunno, it's just that seeing the team named "ARM systems" seems like our team is just a advertising space for whoever will give us points as a team. That's fine I suppose but it just seems like it's essentially a hidden banner ad. And then the request for PR and stuff, makes it seem like the team ...

What I want to know is whether or not the ARM guys sell people computers with the client already installed as a service or something. That would run the scores up but be sort of cheesy at the same time.

Although you gotta wonder how AMD OC of 2 CPU gets all of his folding done.

I suppose F@H could be a security risk. What if the servers got hacked and someone puts a version of a client that has a trojan in it. Then it could traverse your directories/network. I dunno if it has similar characteristics as spyware but it could definitely be a security risk. I would say anytime...

I wouldn't ignore the difference in overclocking potential between a Barton 2500+ and the TBred 2600+, I would guess the Barton overclocks better with that core.

Just a thought.

You know, I'm having problems with all my Athlon XP rigs lately. Maybe the SSE bug I've heard about is rearing its ugly head?

Whatever it is, it seems like AMD'ers are having more problems of late.

I have always wondered how credible that claim about the SSE bug was.

Oh well

Can you believe this? Five people in red. I can't remember when there have been so many. It used to mostly only be TRC-13 that was red. Plus David is close to being red himself along with FrankCrondron.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Everyone, trust me, I do contribute. When I started this thing I was letting a friend of mine use a rig of mine to borg for himself. Since then I've gotten more interested and now contribute a total of 9 machines to this. If you look, I doubt I've posted at all before this flurry of posts in your to...

David, I don't fold under this name... noodle it through. with any luck you'll figure it out faster than you did the diskless farm.

I'm more insterested in your other race David, 100K points or a 100K posts..... my money's on the posts

Go get em David :).... 2007.... ouch. At the rate you are buying motherboards it might be sooner. One question, why do you buy different brands when one of them, the Shuttle, seems to work really well? Are you just doing it for variety... which is fine, just curious. Is it to find one that overclock...

Laf, like you are anywhere close hays

Charlie, have you actually done this yourself or are you essentially quoting the web pages that Turmelle and others have posted? Because it looks like hays and you are going around in circles and getting nowhere fast. Reinstall windows... pull the NIC? It should not be this complicated. I've partici...

You know hays... that nForce2 stuff got me also. I was installing Suse 9.0 Professional and that NIC seemed to be recognized but just would not work. I got the rpms from nVidia's site and that didn't help at all. The only thing I could do, sadly, was to just use another PCI NIC for networking. Kind ...

Ok, Buddabing.... some questions What is a "good" ISO image? I assume it's one that can make a disk. Are you referring to MD5 checksums or what? How do you check if an ISO image is good? Assuming he has "good" ISOs and makes a good CD, I'm having a hard time trying to figure why the Linux server wou...

I don't see how running two m/b from one PSU is necessarily a "bad" idea? It looks as though many do it. Assuming you aren't overloading it, it should be fine. If you run a m/b with onboard video and lan the amount of power used should be relatively low for each blade. I figured that using a combo b...

Why not just go with what's already been proven to work. I dunno about you, but given the amount of money/work/time, it seems to make sense if you look at links etc... from other people that have done it. Lockheed seems to know what he's talking about and gave a good starting point for researching t...

Speaking of farms, what's the deal with Zhentar's farm? He seemed to have higher production rates before from what I reacall and all of a sudden he started having technical difficulties. But he never posted an update.

Can't have someone in the top 5 fall off, they are desperately needed.

Seems to me that there are a lot of tinkers being given to people. I know some Linux rigs being innundated by them. Windows seems to pull gromacs though. I dunno. But the decrease is accross the board.
