This was an information that Bryan gave me. After Detaching the project it is functionning quite good for me at least. Maybe you should try to do the same. Is not much of an information but I dont know much either.

Yeah was worth a shoot but no go...Quote:

same with turning on and off CF..
I also can't get it to run at 95% or better. I tried what you suggested. I even tried deleting Boinc, rebooting, fresh Boinc install. Reattach. Still up and down like a seesaw.
Yep. I installed the HD5870 in Brandon's rig over Christmas. I am going to tell him to try Collatz for awhile, because Moo! is giving his rig some issues, I think. Kind of hard to diagnose everything over the phone, but it seems to be the likely culprit.:p
I understand that. For me crunching a GPU is enough for now. The 5770 gives differents percentages depending on the project but in fact I don`t know why is what and what is why. I am for now having the pleasure of see and mainly ear the GPU crunching. What do I know?
I only know

But I still run from GPU`s mad instructions

Hopefully in a few years the gold rating will pay for itself in saving. I know allot of sites say its not worth it but they only see it from a gamers view but 24/7 running it should show some savings atleast I like to think it will. So please no math you will make my head hurt =))
I found my camera cable so i promise the pictures will get better, I hope
Very nice. Is the old one still working? F$ is looking for a 500w. Trying to get him up and running... ~o)Quote:

Since i game on this box i prefer using the newer drivers so just gonna have to bit the bullet on this one till they release a driver that is stable. Atleast milky way is working again with the newer drivers 12.1 was broke for a while with 11.12 and i believe 11.11Quote:

Well this project is going nowhere lmao... the casing is still empty and in pieces... the computer itself been on the test bench for months now. Im just not winning, ugh, were is charlie sheen when you need him =)) winning!!!
Anyhow here is my problem the H100 radiator will not fit my casing. It has the room at the top but cause i bought these fat corsair vengance ram they are to tall to allow me to get the radiator to fit in so now im at a lose as to what to do... Either purchase the H80 to install on the back fan, replace ram to allow room for the H100 but will still take some modification which will hinder the cooling, or new casing that will allow the memory and H100 to be happy together which atm I havent found one yet..
To make this all more fun as i stated elsewhere the motherboard is defective which may be the cause why moo runs like a turtle. what to do! what to do?
Now for the good news I have aquired two dual core computers and with the generous donation from :-bdAl McAdams\m/ they now have enough memory to keep the dual gpu setup running much much smoother. Thank you so much and I am proud to be a member of this Team.
so my little farm grows \:D/ and so does my electricity bill :((
E6500
E6750
E8400
I7 2600k
2x laptops 1.6ghz dual cores
The rest of farm well lets just call them 14 heaters [-( so i only got a few more weeks at most before the air conditioner starts kicking in and the wife puts her foot down when she sees the electricity bill hit close to $400/month. Im hoping with these new purchases that they will run slightly cooler and allow me to keep rolling during the summer but at a slightly lower rac i do plan on saving the power usage for our challenges and continue being an active member for years to come.
Your winter cruncher, guess i need to change that to full fledge addicted cruncher. =))
Hey coronicus,
I'm having a hard time visualizing your problem. So like which case do you have?
Thermaltake Element V NVIDIA editon

Thanks. Now I think I see your problem. Have you tried to mount the H100 radiator on the inside top location and mount the fans on the outside? It won't be pretty but it should work. Note that you may need to get slightly longer screws to get through the fan and case to the radiator.Quote:

At this point when i get the board back i think im gonna have to put the H100 aside for the time being till either i sell the h100 for a replacement h80, heck maybe it will work fine on the air cooler and ill just let it be. Im hoping when ivy releases i can find a new board that has the memory in a dif spot, anyhow wishful thinking.
Thats nothing that mounting the MB to a piece of plywood and skipping using a case at all won't fix...;) Then there's never a problem with space and you can use a 20" box fan to cool it all!
You and F$ think alike. ;)Quote:

I know I know.. I though for once im gonna get a casing that is large and in charge but only to find out i didnt get right sizes in the right places.. Story of my life, I tell you what =))
Finally got the motherboard in and been working on putting things together for several days. Thanks to Fire$storm ideas it made me rethink how to go about getting it to fit. Although it took me hours on hours of trying dif combination i finally found one that would work. Here are the pics hope you enjoy and as promised a better camera.

Sam had to see what was going on and decided he would help make things more interesting. chewing on the boxes and schreading packaging.

One of the things that sold me on this casing was the cooling duck for the video cards with a massive fan, this thing is insane and is way to loud but atleast when im out of the room i know my video cards will be cool even if the fans fail on the video cards.

So now that i feel more confident with the ability to cool a 3 way crossfire my plans are for a new motherboard when the Z77 chipset releases and either sell the 2 6950 for 3x7950 or maybe just buy a used 6950, I really hope intel releases a 6 core ivy for this chipset but you know im probably day dreaming.
Attachment 789
The casing has neat leds as well with dif settings but that just for show will have to send you more pics once i close up the casing have one more mod to do. As i mentioned earlier the gpu fan is increadily loud i mean sever fan level loud so i need to come up with a fan control. Since this thing is over 30W the control on the casing cant handle it and nor am i going to even try with the motherboard fan control. BTW, Anyone have a link on how to make one, im thinking worse case make just an on/off switch but would be nice if i could adjust the voltage something like 8-12V. i know this fan wont even spin at 5V.
