Since you probably know the answer to this, I read a bit about the UCS 5108 chassis and am I wrong in thinking that I can't simply buy the 5108 chassis and expect it to work alone without the UCS 2104XP fabric extender? I mean, I need to add the price of the fabric extender (2 modules if more...

Bozo resumed his participation and he's close to you. About 200K behind you I think.

We have a clown who went Handruin hunting.

F-word. The discount is gone. It last all of last week, but it disappeared less than an hour after I post about it. Now it is up to ~365$. This is probably the best GTX570 on the market. Too bad.

I'm gearing up slowly, but surely. Only one of the two GTX570 is doing a 8057 unit. The other one is doing a 8044, which is worth much less. Together with the SMP unit that's also being processed, that system is supposed to do ~160000ppd. add another three 4c/8t Sandy and Ivy Bridge doing...

Indeed, comparing what I did get last time I was lucky enough to receive a 8057 unit with the one I've just received, there's a 30% improvement with the core 2.22 versus the 2.25 I used last time. BTW, Gigabyte also offers a huge discount on its GTX570 these days, not just EVGA. ~195$ shipped...

Thanks for the warning. I don't follow that thread much, but since the forums have been quiet lately, I've decided to drop a eye on it this evening. I don't think I'll visit it again as there is nothing for me in here. Again, thank you for preventing me to read disturbing stuff.

Macrium Reflect is my favorite imaging program these days. The interface is not quite as user-friendly as Acronis TI's is, but the image sizes are a tad smaller.

Oh wow, another funny butchered link by Mooner. I never get tired of following those.

No one knows about Tea. It would only make sense for Haussies to verify. I think the closest member to Red Hill is LiamC and it's still quite a ride. And LiamC doesn't seem to visit very often these days. Regarding the GPU client setup, Mark is really the expert. I think I did configure it...

And he just did.

Oh, another out-of-nowhere unit from Santilli. Always unexpected, always appreciated. It's like finding a dollar bill while walking the street. Tea is probably due to send a unit this week too.

Oh no! You've reminded me that Christmas music is coming. You've ruined the remaining of my day.

Not free. Sure, it's only 5$. It might be worth it to someone else, but not for me. Classic Shell does the job for free.

I restarted it 25 minutes ago and it seems fine. Let's hope it'll hold.

I can also get them for 89.99$CDN at a local store during the week-end. If they weren't Seagate's, I would be tempted.

So now Kepler GPU work for the F@h client? I thought you wrote it didn't. Sdbardwick would be another one we should focus on convincing to re-join the team. Handruin too, if he can manage to configure his client for his GTX 560 Ti.

Looking at the stats, I understand why it's so critical that I increase my production since a team is less than a week from passing us. I'm trully sorry I'm only the 671th most productive F@h user out of 17110 active users. I'll do my best to bring less shame to our team.

Sounds about like what happens. I'll try to modify the client's settings and delete the GPU work unit next time. I have another GTX570 coming in next week (a GigaByte instead of an EVGA this time). I hope both will work fine together, with the modifications you suggested. I still won't quite...

My client hangs when I enable GPU folding on my Windows 8 system. It worked fine when I was only using the SMP client and it also worked for about a week with the GPU client, but now it no longer does. It stays at the updating phase after a few hours of work and cannot be restarted unless I...

Is it just me or Firefox 17.0 crashes a lot more than the previous versions? It's the third time it happened since yesterday.

Skype for Windows 8 is downright aweful. I can't even find the place to change the audio settings. It's not using my microphone as the audio input and I don't see the place to change this. Aweful. That and the fact that even though all my Windows installation is in French, it installed...

I'm doing a unit 8057 on my GTX 570 and I'm only using FAH Core 2.25, not the 2.22. So I guess I won't need to change the file and play with the hex editor.

I'm bulkier and older than this man. Also, my ancestors where from Scotland, not Sweden.

So my main home PC is now also on Windows 8, just like the first one I converted some two weeks ago. The important thing is that I can live with it. Using it on my main computer is the only way I'll trully get familiar with it. My work PC at the office is still on Windows 7, of course. So...

So I could get a role in "The Walking Dead" ; I'm a zombie.

Someday, I'll have to stop making service calls after my regular work hours. A body can only take 4-hour rest per night, every day of the week, for a certain amount of time. I feel I'm mining my health for pocket change.

Yeah, I wish I had the money to grab a few too. Regarding the noise, I would have thought that you would be the best one to know since you've been using Cisco servers at your job. I think you only have blades and 2U servers from them, so maybe you don't know how loud the few 40mm fans in the...

Some BIOS still have an address assigned for the parallel port even when the motherboard doesn't have the connector for it on the back plate. Go in the BIOS and try to find the address for the legacy ports and then change it to something else. If my theory is right, it might free the standard...

Nothing prevents you from adding RAM afterward. It's cheap, as long as you don't it from Cisco. It's usually much cheaper to add RAM than to add/replace processors in a server.

Each Xeon X5675 has a MSRP of ~1440$ IIRC. The server is sold below that and it includes two. Awesome system to run F@h on it, or something else, as you wish. With two of those, I could have replaced 24 of our older servers at the office, but they said no. I told them it would cost at least...

Look here Cisco is offering huge discounts on several of their last generation servers, hoping for sure to clear their inventory. The model in the link above is probably the best deal they have now. Unless you need storage, then it will be a C210 with 16x 2.5" drive bays and occupy 2U of rack...

Thanks all for your input. Why would a dedicated box be more reliable than a well configured jail/zone/VM? In case something working in the global zone requires a reboot? Very unlikely in this case.

Oh wow. I'm really tired I guess. Different instead of difference. See you all tomorrow morning, after a good long night sleep.

Nope. Completely difference controller.

I've found love : http://www.anandtech.com/show/6433/intel-ssd-dc-s3700-200gb-review I wish he had included the Corsair Neutron GTX in his IOps graphs. That SSD model has an agressive garbage collection and a chipset targeted at enterprise customers. I doubt it beats the new Intel drive...

We are looking to part with our servers and send a bunch of them at a remote location with better electrical and cooling redundancy than what we can implement in our offices. We'll need to setup a VPN access between the servers at the remote location and the few we'll keep in our offices. We...

Apparently, the secret sauce doesn't taste so good, or so do your stats say. Did they simply stop distributing beta GPU units or do you have problems with the core updating itself automatically?

Is the stuff you take commercialized yet or not? Because it seems to be good stuff. There's money to make there.

I don't see it on their website or their product reference card.

By the end of the first quarter of the Bears vs Titans game, the Titans had allowed more points during the first quarters of their games (103) than the Bears had allowed in all of their games so far (102).

PowerColor seems fine. When did you read it went under?

I've just realized that tomorrow will be November 4th. Is it the election day in the U.S.? Oh and tonight is my favorite night of the year : the one I get one more hour to sleep.

Well, if he's been flooded, it might be the shortest-live computer I've ever (partially) gave or sold.

The noise the card makes is crazy loud. Had I known, I'm not sure I'd have gotten one. Also, maybe because I've only slept two and a half hours during the past 48 hours, but I haven't figured out how to get the beta units come in. All the older core files from the site Mark linked are 1.5MB...

Question : How to I link a DHCP address to a certain network/NIC in /etc/hosts? For instance, let's say I have two NIC connected to two different networks in my zone, one with a fixed address and the other one with DHCP. How am I supposed to write this /etc/hosts? 127.0.0.1 localhost...

The above worked to make the folder writable. Thank you very much. I still wasn't able to copy it directly to the zone, but I've had an idea and it worked. I mounted the directory in the zone and then I've been able to transfer the files I wanted. So in the end, the job's done.

Since the system won't reboot more often than once a month, that's the least of my concerns. The RTM ran on that system since it's been available and for what I'll use it for, Windows 8 is fine. Classic Shell makes it usable. Windows 8 is also thinner on ressources that Vista and even Windows...

So Clocker won't be the only one here to have bought the upgrade... It's installing now and will become my GPU FAH machine.

zonecfg -z zonename info I don't have any line starting by "inherit-pkg-dir" My zones are in "/export/home/zonename" because that's what I set in the zonepath parameter when I created the zone. If another place was better, please tell me. I use the latest version of OpenIndiana (1.51 a5...
