Cliptin has a day total of 113 points!!!! Maybe this has happened for you or Tea before, but I haven't seen it before. Great work!!!! Tea, impressive amount of hardware!

PLOP...... Ahh, what a relief to get the finger out of .... OK, I'll get a few more computers to crunch today, so that should help a little bit. But Clocker, Tea and Cliptin, I might be able to rock 'n roll and run, but you boys/orangutangs FLY!!! Bloody supersonic stuff! Good work! And...

Yes, I have lived. And now you got me all depressed when I compare all those nice things to what I do now...:( Good post though!

...27 degrees warm outside ;)

:) not quite. It's summer, and 27 degrees centigrade outside.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! :D

Interesting, might be time to upgrade in late September then... With a heat spreader the heat issues might be a bit easier to handle. And the noise issues related to the heat dissipation. Thanks for the info.

LOL! Keep 'em jokes coming!

Yup, format time it is... Or atleast fdisk time to get a clean disk. You can the format from within the setup program.

Some years ago, yes. Now, now way. After a few months of being in the market the products look much more attractive to me.

I found a link to SR at Anand's news section sometimes in ...2000 I think. I lurked around for a while, just reading all the posts and learning a lot. When I got myself into some trouble with SCSI, I registered and asked for help. I liked the place, the atmosphere, the kind and adult people...

And boy do those ~900MHz P3's suck at crunching....comparing to my Athlon. No offence anyone!

Damm, I'm probably down to 4 computer now... :( Should I take the extra step and upgrade to dual...the question I've been thinking about for years. Now might be the time, as I don't upgrade as often as before.

....zzzz....rum.....zzz.....RUM??? Did someone mention RUM? Ah, Hana bay rum? Never seen it in the Finnish liquer store. Mount gay yes, but not Hana. Could you give me some info on Hana bay rum? Where is it made? Bartender, give me some Hana! I'm deffinitely a rum man...

I remeber him well. Good question! Anyone with info?

LOL ! :)

Explorer seems to have learned a bit of Finnish, judging by his location...:)

Great avatar Flagreen :) And yes, a very good movie.

Great to know that Jake, now I know who to turn to when expert advice is needed ;) .

Thanks for the info H.

Thanks Gary! Downloading at work, 2MB line, 222KB/s at the moment.

The site was just down 10 minutes ago, or was it just me?

I'd agree with groltz, get a slk800, an Alpha or a swiftech. Couple one of those with a quitet 80mm fan and your troubles will probably go away. Timwhit, I'm not quite clear now, have you cleaned the cooler and reapplied a thin layer of goo? Or did you do this while installing the cooler? Must...

About those fan grills, yes, atleast for the fans I have used they have made a differense. And I haven't used loud fans (I'm refering mostly to fast spinning fans.).

Buck, I'm running FAH, timwhit seems to be running SETI. ...WHAT???? Timwhit, you can't be serious??????? SETI????????? OUR TEAM NEEDS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clocker is about to hit 1000 work units, congratulations!!!!! Tee, I'm glad you got your cable. Enjoy!

I don't use fan grills anymore because I want my computer to be very quiet. (dream on, yeah I know...) You might want to take the fan grill off of your cpu cooler to make it more quiet. I've take the fan grill off of my PS also btw.

First I suggest you put the 92mm fan back in thecase, but if possible so that it runs with 7V. That should make it more quiet and tolerable to use. That alone might help your problem, as the fan for the CPU would get more cooler air. But I wouldn't stop there. Then I would take the CPU cooler...

;)

Good work Cliptin! Awesome computer, thanks for the info Cougtek.

For some on topic stuff: I'm The JoJo, please to meet you all. I'm working as a Senior Test Engineer in a Software company. In my spare time I build computers, OC my own computer, try to learn Linux and install the FAH client on every possible computer...;) Off/On topic: Managed to sell my...

Thanks for the info slo. I thought there would be a "deeper" meaning to it. like the song says: ... I keep a stiff upper lip And I shoot from the hip I keep a stiff upper lip And I shoot And I shoot Shoot from the hip ... :oops:

Good work simonstre!!! A 2.0GHz notebook.....jeez, makes my XP1800 seem...old and slow? Where are the times when the desktop computers ruled over the notebooks ;)

Thank you, both of you, for your well written and clear answers!

Since we are honoured by so many Australians here, could someone please enlighten me as to what "stiff upper lipp" means/refers to? I'm referring to a song from AC/DC btw. Don't know if this is an Australian thing or just a thing from the English language. Gotta go find the lyrics to that...

Thank you for your kind words gentlemen! :D Now let's just keep the train rolling and heading for that number 1 spot ;) Good work everyone! Every single one of us is needed in this effort!

Welcome Mars, and thanks for helping out in the crunching!

Good work C! And thanks for the info.

I might be a bit out of the loop, but what do you do for a living cas? Or, how are you "into" threads/SMP/Clusters/mainframe etc program design? After a few years with beowulf clusters and MPI programming, yup, 4 threads/4 cpus sound about right...:)

My own bottle of 60% (alcohol/volume) is empty. :( (Stroh) Bartender, pass me a drink with some rum and 1 icecube please! Preferably Stroh. The most disturbing thing (considering my stomach and it's growth) is that I'm beginning to like beer. One or two English ones, and one Finnish one...

Has anyone tried the Drakfont program to import Truetype fonts from windows to Linux? Gotta try it out, and see how much better looking the world becomes.

Congrats Will !!

Great work Tea! Keep up the good work! I'll ask Tannin to give you some extra bananas for your effort :) .

RED ALERT!!! RED ALERT!!! That austech team is getting to be a really serious threat! I'm even trying to sell my girlfriends 333MHz computer now (a good opportunity arose) and am thinking about building another faster computer for her instead ;).

Congrats nevertheless Merc!!! I'm sorry to hear no one noticed. The friendliness and people paying attention to others was part of why I in the first place stayed at SR.

Probably not, but I really can't tell, haven't been there in a few months ;)...

Only in my dreams flagreen ;)

I seem to think about this matter exactly as i. So what if the program hogs CPU 1 for X seconds or minutes, as e_dawg can still happily use the computer because of CPU 2? Is there something I'm not comprehending? Yes, you can have multithreaded programs (written some) , but you can also run...

e_dawg, can't imagine you not benefitting from using a dual cpu system from the sound of your problem. On the other hand, you might want to switch over to linux and not upgrade your system ;) , that's what I did.

Thanks for the info Clocker.
