    Yeah I should be in the top 20 in ppd soon here.

    I'm getting:
    ~2200ppd on my iMac at work (smp)
    ~5000ppd on my XP machine (GPU2 + smp)
    ~1500ppd on my dad's C2D (smp, going to setup tonight)

    So hopefully in the next day i'll steadily be pushing around 8500ppd.

    I'll be setting up folding on my new G5 at work too, doubt i'll get a whole lot out of it.

    The race is on Fatcat. I got my eyes on SM21 :D

    My production is down to ~60% while I restructure some folding boxes and move disks around on my main rig, but that's not stopping me from blowing past Sledgehammer70, MJancaitis, and Buddha16 in the next 3 days and breaking into the Icrontic top 20.

    My desktop's been down for about 2 months now, so I'm surviving entirely on a single 8800GT's production. Congratulations to you.

    Snark|rage ;)

    I really need to figure out why smp won't work :(. I could use the extra 1-2k ppd.

    Believe it or not, installing a frickin' mouse driver corrupted my BIOS somehow.

    Just been too busy and cash-strapped to do anything about it. I am a sad panda.

    I'm very impressed right now Goat and good on you, the first call has been answered almost instantly. I will watch your progress with earnest but be forewarned, ol' 23 may have a trick up it's sleeve in the coming days. :D

    the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding! the 9600GSO is folding!

    so like I just downloaded the newest nvidia drivers... are there specials ones I should have gotten?

    yeah make sure you got the CUDA ones because then FAH GPU2 won't use bascially any proc power and you can use that with the SMP client :)

    You're looking for 180.60

    I have the 180.48.

    I have the 9600GSO on a single core system jared, so no smp anyways.

    I'll get the 180.60 tomorrow or so. Can you just download and install them or you have to uninstall old drivers first. I havent owned an nvidia vid card since the geforce2mx400 ;)

    go here, post up your output with clock settings I am really interested. about to buy two 9600GSOs want to know what kind of gain I can look to see, since its the G92 core you should be able to get around 4.5k ppd.

    lsevald,

    Please enjoy your dwindling days at No. 1 while you still have it. Your time there is almost over. If you have any big guns not in service, I suggest you get them into operation. I fully intend to take your position from you before the New Year. Fair warning. Prepare to move down to No. 2. :D

    DanG, it was a good fight. You and lsevald can compete for positions 2 and 3 when Isevald loses No. 1.

    Even if you pull ahead of me by a few thousand PPD I'll still have several months to add to my rigs before you get within passing range. Congrats on the new hardware, but don't get too excited :p

    That would be the trick, played and yes, SM23 has had a boost. Admittedly, production is not all due to the one machine. I originally was in the market to boost my folding production but decided against it for impacting my gaming. So, I added a few duallies, another GPU and a PS3 to the mix.

    This is in direct retaliation of your GX2 on it's way and recent insurgence into the Top 10. :grumble::fold::D

    So I shouldnt tell you I got a quad cpu and GTX 260 and now two 9600GSO's about to start folding next week with the 9800GX2? :rarr:
