Folding with a prescott

Post by colm » Tue Jun 10, 2008 12:50 pm

Given this cpu is as vaguely decribed as the day I started it 2.5 years ago....
if you are wondering what to compare to, the smallest core2 duos are close at the 1mb l2 cache to a prescott...
The 2mb cache versions of course floats more...

I attempted smp version with gpu running, the deadline was showing to be exceeded by minutes. after days of running, something at folding at home has a close benchmark for standards as the prescott 2.8e...minutes over deadlines for days of runtime is quite frustrating to look at...

So attempted smp alone, and was within deadlines, then learned my mobo had a "dynamic overclocking" and that really got it into a decent fahmer.

I am approaching 10000 points today after roughly a month, and messing around, letting things slide for a few days at a time....
Still a contender, with all client versions they have to offer at folding at home site.
My ati vid card was the big surpriser, but that is another subject.

Hello,

Is it a dual core P4? It must be, if you are running the SMP client...

I thought some people pulled off running SMP on a single with VT.
