Folding with BOINC

[3.0charlie]

Same here, both rigs down for the count - stress testing with the Asus / E8400 and waiting for my second 280GTX to come back from RMA (should arrive tomorrow...)

[matsta31]

So you will have 3 rigs ? What mobo did you buy for the 8400 ?

[3.0charlie]

Nah, still 2 rigs. I still haven't had any replies from Gigabyte - their Support really sucks, I must say. Using a P5E Deluxe X48 with the E8400 ATM.

Did you at least find somewhere to contact in North America?

I've been bumped back-and-forth twice between Gigabyte's Global Technical Service (online) and a long-distance call center (1-626-854-9338) in L.A. They can't decide whom will take the call, since the board was bought in Canada. GTS says they handle the World, minus North America, and LA says they only handle US requests...

Anyone knows someone at Gigabyte that could pull some strings? This is getting ridiculous.

Did I mentionned that it's been a week?

John from what I can tell from their Website the U.S.A Call Centre should handle all products purchased in North America (Canada, USA & Mexico) Did you deal with more than one agent when you called the U.S number?

[3.0charlie]

Yup, 2 of them. I'll try again tomorrow evening.

2,005,157 as of right now!!

Congrats all HWC Boincers!

I don't even deal with peons anymore...when I have to call someone the first thing I do is ask for a supervisor/manager that way they know I'm freakin serious and am not taking any BS. The last guy that got me po'd I threatened to sue...(Rogers Telecommunications) and I had my issue resolved in 30 seconds...and yes I would have. It only costs $50.00 to file a writ in Canada


O and the reason I originally came on was I'm back to BOINCing after a long break lol
Got this Q6700 stable at 3.4GHZ so I'll be happy with a 27% OC

[FreqE1]

2 meelyon frikin' credits! Mwuhahaha! We will dominate!

Ok, we'll rise slowly but steadily.

We also hit top 40 in RAC and I see peoples RAC climbing! I bought my router so I just have to assemble my new rig, get a stable overclock and set up my network. Then I'll have 2 rigs going 24/7. My stats say I have 3 rigs crunching but one (my roomate's) bailed and the other was my 2nd rig with the proc from the first rig.

People think positive thoughts about my new E8400. It's a CO but I'm hoping I can do better than the 3.8GHz my old one does. Is 4GHz too much to ask? I hope not.

Oh, great to have you back Scratch!
