...is there a benefit of running two of these or it it just a case of dimishing returns?
The Windows SMP client is a total waste of time. I can run the WinSMP client on my qua d and get 1700-1900ppd if I'm lucky. On the exact same machine, I run two Ubuntu VMs each running a Linux SMP client and get upwards of 5000ppd. Why would you want to run the Windows client?
Because I dont want the hassle of setting up the linux clients. I get between 2500 and 3500 ppd depending on project using wsmp on a q9450 @ 3.6 ghz, I know its not perfect but I WANT the wsmp client., thats why I started this thread.
I had nothing but trouble trying to get two Ubuntu VM's working together, even when they were working, they required constant attention.
My main rig should be able to pull 10k ppd with two linux clients and the GPU2, if the linux SMP clients actually folded for more than a few hours at a time.
The GPU is so stable, I've yet to have a problem with.
Offtopic: What board you on to get 3.6 GHz?
I'm not much of a web page hacker, but can put together the steps (from many sources / contributors) to get 1x SMP + 4x GPU clients running On UB 8.04 flavors. All be it, this would be a deticated folding rig, not suitable for desktop use as X isn't installed. All somebody would have to do is add the content / page.It would probably be easier for someone else to do it.
I made it possible for it to be updated, so I could probably grant someone access if they want to do it. I imagine on the whole not THAT much has changed. Dunno.. you guys tell me ^^
Will work on it this week. Should be done by the weekend.Type it up and email it to me. I can webify it
