A little early to jump to conclusions.

Bloody arms race :)

I've got 2 x 2600K's online. Just starting to overclock them. You might catch me, but it's going to take you longer than you thought... :D

Is she really a trial lawyer? I guess if there is money to be made or reputation to be gained, the truth and facts don't matter.

See my post #40 in this thread. This surprises me not at all.

HFM.NET does something similar, as well as monitoring http://code.google.com/p/hfm-net/

I also get great CIFS performance from FreeNAS—details here: http://www.storageforum.net/forum/showpost.php?p=140322&postcount=36 I just copied a 4770MB VOB file for 48-49MB/s write and around 61MB/s read (when copied from the FreeNAS).

Maybe... :rambo::drunk::king::) Wait 'til I get my second one And the 2600K isn't all that expensive. I think I paid $340 or so for the Q9550s when I got them (and the 2600K cost $370), so all in all, a worthwhile upgrade

Despite that, HFM reports that on unit 6055, i7-2600K at stock is ~ twice as fast as a 3.2GHz Q9550. Both appear to draw ~ the same power at the wall

Just built my first i7-2600K. Loaded client 6.34 configured and it downloaded core A3? Is there something extra I need to set? Work unit type is set to big and the -advmethod flag is also set ..."[22:05:56] Decompressed FahCore_a3.exe (10057216 bytes) successfully [22:06:01] + Core...

Given that the SSD works in other PC's, and the troubleshooting you've done, I'd suspect that Gigabyte motherboard. I'd opt for replacing the motherboard.

At the rate you're catching me, I need to hurry. Actually, I wanted to wait for AMDs bulldozer due ~ 20 June. I think that the 4-module/8 integer core models will be folding monsters, but you aren't giving me time to wait.

It's been the thing that has been holding me back on buying a SB or two for folding, gotta make it hard for SSDrueding :)

Packet fragmentation? different frame sizes? Have you updated the drivers on the Windows box? See if the Realtek site has a later version than on the Gigabyte site. On the Linux side for CIFS, see if Asynchronous I/O is enabled or disabled. Whatever it is, toggle it and retest? Some...

Or lead mining. Oil & gas—Deepwater Horizon, Piper Alpha anyone? The trouble as I see it is that too many people just look at the simplistic setup costs for any resource use. But in this country at least (which is why I mentioned lead), the people are demanding more stringent safeguards on...

That's an interesting link, but it's a little light on in details. The pdf states things like safe to 1600 (C). Is that indefinite time at 1600? 20 minutes? A day? Also, the assumptions used in calculating accident probabilities don't seem to be documented anywhere. Perhaps I missed it...

That's not the "think of the children" argument, that is a possibility of radioactive contamination. Note the use of "possibility" in that statement. Also note the use of "may" in the statement you quoted. They are qualifiers and there for a reason. Personally, I think it's you that has...

Please show me where I used the "think of the children" cliche.

Umm no. I supported my my stance with counter arguments and indicated why I believed your argument (why not complain about car, aircraft or conventional power station accidents) were specious. What you replied with was "no, reactors are safe so there". If you want to have another try please...

Absolute rubbish. The very fact that you've resorted to personal attacks and unsubstantiated claims is proof of who is coming up short in the rational argument stakes. "intrinsically safe" By whose measure?

And as for automobile deaths, people do bat eyelids, at least in this country. Despite exponential growths in traffic, the actual number of deaths have fallen in absolute terms over the last 30 years.

Talk about short-sighted. If a plane crashes, or in a car accident, only those directly involved die. In a nuclear accident, people hundreds of kilometres away may die. And even if they don't die, their children may be born deformed, or suffer sicknesses that require lifelong medical care...

Absolute rubbish! There are three types of emitters—alpha, beta and gamma. Alpha radiation (basically and electron stripped Helium atom) can be stopped by clothing. Beta particles, are high energy electrons and can (that's can, not may, and not will) penetrate human tissue and clothing and...

BBC is reporting that ..."Radiation is 400 times the annual legal limit near Fukushima's reactor 3, the Kyodo news agency reports."... From time's earlier post, that's their MOX (Uranium/Plutonium) reactor. That is a catastrophe. ..."Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano says: "Now we...

I'm getting the sense that the Japanese media has gotten Iraqi Information Minister disease. There is no problem--hate to break it to you but radioactive cesium and iodine do not occur in nature-their respective half-lifes are too short. Which is what makes them so toxic. The fact that winds...

Got it quickly this time (bad pun). I ran it five times and sent the results back to you

AU$ 1000

I thought the triple channel Sandy Bridge chips needed the new high-end, 2011 or so pin socket, which AFAIK wasn't due to Q4 this year

.NET runtimes...

Nope. Was down the coast (about 2.5 hours drive) for my daughters 10th. She wanted surfing lessons :). So just shut everything down before I left. Back up and running last night. You might catch me, but I'm not going to make it that easy :D

Reading Anandtech/HOCP/TechReport and a few others gives the general impression that quad is starting to supplant higher clocked duals in games as well as multithreaded apps, and as these are the only things that really need to be sped up, then there isn't really a reason to go with dual core...

I have used both VLC and MPC-HT, and tend to swap back and forth between them every few months. VLC I find easier, but MPC has more tweakability. Mostly, if the video plays using ffdshow, then right-clicking the ffdv icon will enable you to apply a whole heap of custom filters, which I can't...

Thinkpad X120e is not coming to Aus. :( Ship date pushed back to March 8. http://liliputing.com/2011/02/lenovo-thinkpad-x120e-to-start-shipping-february-15th.html

Another "Downfall" (Der Untergang) parody :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yEQSX4biR4

The Aten has a lot of positive reviews, and I need 4 ports so I might go with that despite the cost. I've used cheapies in the $80 ~$100 mark and they've all had issues. Thanks for the advice people.

Thread resurrection :) See what happens when people use search... Has there been any changes on the KVM front in the three years since this was last discussed? I too am suffering the SSDrueding :) malaise of troubleshooting a KVM rather than a PC... I will need at least one D-Sub input (I've...

You forgot working :) and cheaper. Did I mention working :)

Just to rub salt :) 4 x 1GB of GeIL PC6400 Ultra 4-4-4-12-19 2T and Phenom 1055T running 240MHz Bclck for a base 0f 3360 MHz and Turbo up to 3960 MHz gives me: Processor: 7.6 Memory : 7.6

+1 for Samsung mobile phones. Look up U700 ribbon cable. That's an engineering/design fault, and they get away with it because consumers are too lazy to take action. On the flip side, I have had excellent service from Samsung's Monitor/TV unit.

I'd be interested to know how much juice a 460 chews through. Any chance of measuring system load before and after starting folding on the 460?

I don't fscking believe it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-b78TKZIyw&feature=player_embedded Looks to retain some of the humour... Hail to the king baby. Now if Smith&Tinker would only get MechWarrior out the door...

The next Sandy Bridge chipset/Intel storage driver revision looks like it may have an interesting trick up it's sleeve... SSD caching. I wonder how relevant the Seagate Momentus XT will be after that ships? (assuming it's true...) ..."Z68 is also slated to support something called SSD Caching...

To you. Others may not be so fortunate.

Dunno, I always keep an eye on this thread

I see my contribution of around 6K per day and feel... inadequate... :cry: :sad: :blue: :cursin::bibber::eek4::dunno::diablo::o:hurl: :D

I'm out for a month or two by the looks. Ambient is in the low to high 30's Celsius, (90's Fahrenheit) so CPU temps are elevated. I'll be back.

Beware WU P6702, run 3, clone 78, gen 97. Seems to be dodgy

It's the performance per watt of that bonus that scares me--though the 5750 probably is pretty good on the power consumption front

I've never trusted OCZ since they first appeared on the market. OCZ always appeared big on hype but their after market support (as evidenced by complaints in threads) was at best abysmal. Personally, I don't care how hip you think you are, or how flashy your branding, it's how you support your...

I've not played with Link Aggregation, but the facility to do so appears to be there. I guess interfaces are like system colours/desktop backgrounds. What appeals to one person might not to another. Which is good in this space because if FreeNAS doesn't appeal, then there are lots of other...
