Cool, thanks ! An so the seemingly never ending parts list begins :-) .

I think I'm going to go the route Biffa took, that's a nice looking rig, and i can start out with v8's and move up to v12's when the price is a bit better. Then I'll have a second rig to build with the v8 pulls. I like the Supermicro route as well due to DDR3 v.s ECC, that's a major expense for...

SSD's are getting better, but I don't think they are ready for prime time yet. I still think the VR's are the way to go at the moment, but there's other options as well. .

Well done all !! I remember being at the top of those lists, seems like an eternity, but have to settle fer a measly 35k ppd now days :( .

Hello All, Been a long time since I've been active on F@H, and from the looks of it, the landscape has changed a fair bit. I still have about 10 to 12 usable GPU's mostly 9800 GT's, couple 8800 GT's and 2x GTX-280's, however, from what I've been reading, GPU's are not the flavor of the...

You don't need a second computer to do this if you install VMware to run Ubuntu form the same computer. That it why the guide says ( Native or VMware ). The key element for performing the transfers is rsync. That application does not exist natively in Windows. Creating the Non-Sudo user is to...

I know exactly what's it's doing, as I wrote it all, but It doesn't scale well to additional machines and it seems to be a bit sluggish when rendering, I suppose thats the NVClock interface, but not sure. Ultimately, I want to get one script, that can pull info from whatever machines are...

I posted on Stanford's F@H Forums, but didn't get allot of respoce. So I'll post it here as well and see if any of you all have any input: I've installed several 9800GT's using Hyperlife's GPU2 Linux/Wine Headless Install guide. All went according to plan, no issues. The only package(s) I've...

Already posted. Gonna take a break for a bit. My head hurts from all the TYPO's !! :rolleyes:

I've exceeded the post length word count limit .. :eek: So I need to figure out how to get the next section posted.

Pass, thats some of the voodoo magic of rsync, all I know is it works, and it's real fast. You can add the -v option to get more information, then -vv to get allot of informaiton, then -vvv to get a stupid amount of informaiton on everything it's doing. -vv an -vvv are used for debuging...

I noticed that too. I think, but I'm not certain, that the web-page generation script within HFM requires the log files to be in the local directory in order to build ths static pages. Rsync can deal with that easily buy adding in --exclude=*.txt option to the sync command. EDIT: Tested...

04-FEB-2010 Updated the How-Too through installing HFM.net Should have the next section done tomorrow, 05-FEB.

Couple of suggestions: CPU: Well, as much as you want to spend :-) MB: EVGA 170-BL-E762-A1 LGA 1366 Intel X58 4-WAY SLI Classified XL GPU's: Your choise, but get a MB board that allows for MAX expansion. PSU: Get a Big One !! 1000W / 1200W. If you dont use it, cool, if you need it...

[EDIT] See Top of thread for Updates.

They make the same amount of nosie as your system RAM does :D I've read allot articles from Hard-Core gamers about disk drives, and in some circles the serious gamers sill prefer IDE over SATA even, I dont really get that one though. Performance wise, I've not seen anything that will top...

Part-1-2: Setting up Your File Server, OpenSSH, and rsync: Now that we have out HFM.net service running and producing web contest, it's time to shift our focus to the file server and get things setup for automated transfers. For this portion of the How-Too, I'll be using my Windows desktop...

I'm running 2x MSI K9A2's with P9850's on the MB. I had 3x 9800GT's on each of them, one board was real stable the other one seems to be a bit sensitive, probably more to do with the PSU than the MB. If your gonna run three cards, get at least an 800/850 PSU, 1000 would be better, then you...

IMHO None of the SLC's that are on the market at the moment warrent their price points apart from the one I've listed, at least for the average person. Micron has one comming out that smokes anything on the market, but also costs more than the best CPU you can buy. My Choises would be...
