Welcome Back SpeedRaider!

The system normally has the turbo set to 45 and is stable up to 50. I tried stock speeds as well as lower than stock. I suspect it is not detecting the processor properly just like the Core2. Core2 has never had HT yet the client assumes HT if more than 4 threads. The 2600K supports AVX but it may be trying to use more advanced instructions like AVX2. Windows blue screens within 30 seconds no matter what speed the system is set to run. I could do further testing by forcing instructions via client options but the system is currently unplugged. Issues like this is why I give the client reliability such a low score. Dealing with issues like this on one system is ok but try running this on 10 or more systems. I don't have that much spare time. I can run something more stable like dnetc and have time to relax, smoke a cigar, and sip some nice Irish whiskey.

Do you like BOINC? Care to try http://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs/ ?
HT on on this project. Set

lasieve5f - used for huge factorizations, uses up to 1 GB memory: yes

http://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs/...subset=project

You need at least 1.3GB per thread.

Forgot to add, set this

Swap space: use at most 90% of total
Memory: when computer is in use, use at most 90% of total
Memory: when computer is not in use, use at most 90% of total

For me I do like some control over the clients. I like command line settings and execution, must have proxy support, and reliable stats for correlating clients to work output.

Ok here is my real frustration with the SOB stats. Yesterday I shutdown most of my clients and the rate for the day was ~1.3 M jEMs/sec in the 7 day graph. Just a few hours ago I fired up the rest of my systems I was running before. Now the rate for yesterday jumped to ~ 2.6 M jEMs/sec. Stats need to be fixed with respect to time. At a specified time and date the amount of work done needs to be static. Only then can you track your performance.

I think I've figured out how the graphs work now. I'm not fond of it but I at least can make some sense of it. Time to turn up the heat. 24 AVX cores and 4 AVX2 cores added.

Great!

If you were building a box today, which avx2 cpu would you use? Whatever a guy can afford?

[guru]

It depends on the purpose. Is there a specific application you are running(other than SOB) that needs avx2?
