  1. Boinc Pentathlon 2024

    Ouch, that stinks!
  2. stats.free-dc.org is down ???

    And now BOINCStats is not working again.
  3. stats.free-dc.org is down ???

    Several people reported both Free-DC and BOINCStats being down last night. Both sites are working normally for me right now.
  4. Recent Changes in projects

    I thought I had tried that previously and it didn't work, but I'll try it again when I'm in the mood to run MilkyWay again.
  5. Recent Changes in projects

    Is there a way to ONLY get the single threaded tasks? Since the project preferences on the site don't seem to have that option?
  6. Info PrimeGrid Challenges 2024, sieve-free edition

    I didn't see any weaving. It's closer to something like this: https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxDxjIsVsEqG_t6IEs4oLqBYKLeiQ-n-WX?si=CS61DTTCE0KHdCHb
  7. I will be evaluating and changing my DC activities.

    That's fair. She might try to "feed" it a jelly sandwich. :D Bummer about the utility rates, though! :(
  8. I will be evaluating and changing my DC activities.

    Maybe have your son "house" some of the gear for you. :)
  9. Weekly DC Stats - 10MAR2024

    Willy at BOINCStats found the fix for the LHC-dev stats issue and the numbers are showing properly now. :)
  10. 2nd hand server CPUs

    I don't know what the actual board/chipset is, but I upgraded a Dell Precision T5810 from an E5-1650v4 to an E5-2699v3 that I got from Amazon for about $40 a while back. I made sure the BIOS was updated before the swap and didn't have any problems at all with it. The individual CPU cores are...
  11. Weekly DC Stats - 18FEB2024

    And now they are back to showing correctly again. It sure would be nice if the LHC admins would fix it so Bok doesn't have to tweak things to show the right numbers!
  12. Weekly DC Stats - 18FEB2024

    Well, Free-DC DID have the correct LHC-dev stats for a short time, but they are back to being wrong again. :(
  13. Weekly DC Stats - 11FEB2024

    The problem is that the stats export files for the -Dev project have been identical to the files for the main project for a while so both projects are showing the same numbers. There have been some posts about it on the project message boards, but no response from the project admins. Free-DC was...
  14. Friends and Team mates I have had a stroke

    Need a downvote for the stroke. Upvote for a quick recovery!
  15. 1 million point project challenge

    I just got to 1 million in WUProp today, so that's #53 for me, and probably the last for a very long time unless someone creates some new projects.
  16. 5th Anniversary FAH bigadv eol anniversary challenge

    It's not a big deal, but I'm curious why I don't show up on those "Top 100 users" daily stats reports. The FAH client says I'm doing close to 4 million per day (about 11.5M since I turned it on 3 days ago), which should put me around the top 75 range. Does that somehow mean my points aren't...
  17. 5th Anniversary FAH bigadv eol anniversary challenge

    Might be a regional/ISP thing. I cannot access the [H] site (any of it) either.
  18. Weekly DC Stats - 21JAN2024

    I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm slowly crawling toward my goal of pushing into the top 10 on the Dev project. Can only run 1 or 2 VBOX tasks at a time on my computers since they use 6-8GB each, so it's a long, slow grind. I have been letting a couple of small machines run one regular and...
  19. 1 million point project challenge

    I need more new projects that I can get 1M in, or you just might pass me! I'm at 52 right now, with WUProp being the only active project I don't have 1M in yet other than a few test projects that only have small amounts of work once in a while so probably won't ever get to 1M...
  20. PrimeGrid Challenges 2023

    Run times on my 3060Ti and Quadro RTX 4000 have increased by about 40% for GFN-20 tasks, with virtually no change in the credits given for the tasks. PPD for the 3060ti dropped from about 500K to about 320K with the new tasks. :( And the RTX 4000 dropped from about 330K to about 240K...
  21. PrimeGrid Challenges 2023

    Two members with enough credits to beat the 7th rank team on their own (Crashtech and Mark), and another with enough to beat the 8th ranked team (Skillz). You people are nuts! :D I could beat the 42nd ranked team...42 is a good number! :D
  22. PrimeGrid Challenges 2023

    I was hoping to finish in the top 100 with just two moderately nice GPUs (3060Ti and RTX Quadro 4000) but it's looking like that might not happen. :( I could ensure the top 100 finish if I let my small collection of mostly junk CPUs also run, but they are all busy with other things that are...
  23. Recent Changes in projects

    In BoincTasks, click on the computer name in the list on the left, then click the Extra menu option, then click BOINC Preference. In the BOINC Settings window, click on the Network tab, then change the two work buffer lines. I have mine set to 0.50 days, but you can pick whatever works best for...
  24. Recent Changes in projects

    I have been getting the same message about the tasks possibly not completing on time as well. I think the tasks in this batch had shorter run time estimates than the actual run times so my computers downloaded more work than they should have. But they still seem to be (mostly) getting done anyway.
  25. My status IN DC work (temporary)

    That's just wrong. If they are going to get a refund for either breaking your parts or just not knowing how to set them up, they should at least have to send everything back to you. :( I hope you can get all of the other stuff sorted out soon!
  26. Advice for upgrading low budget home theater room.

    Continuing the conversation with myself... I bought the BenQ 2050A and I am very satisfied with the results for the most part. Brightness is excellent on the "normal" setting and pretty close to LCD/LED TV levels with all of the room lights on. With the lights off, it's quite stunning and...
  27. Dell Latitude E5470 Video Issues

    You said it's a problem when the official Intel drivers are installed. Does it do the same thing when you install the GPU drivers from Dell? https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=7tfpk&oscode=wt64a&productcode=latitude-e5470-laptop You can't actually replace...
  28. Advice for upgrading low budget home theater room.

    A lot of the online reviews I've found say it's absolutely worth paying a little more than the projectors I listed to get a BenQ 2050A for much better input lag, image quality, quiet fans, better color accuracy, better focus. Sounds good to me, but the throw distance calculator says the 2050A...
  29. Advice for upgrading low budget home theater room.

    It's time to revive my own thread. ;) I ended up not doing anything at the beginning of the year because we discovered some really big repairs that needed to be done on the house and those took priority over everything else, of course. However, the old Epson PowerLite 99W is actually dying now...
  30. Do A+ certified technicians (in general) get paid a salary or are they paid by the hour?

    Location and specific job make a difference, but in my area (Utah), having an A+ certification is usually a basic requirement for most IT support positions other than tier 1 help desk/tech support (and some places require it even for that). It doesn't have any real impact on hourly vs. salary...
  31. PrimeGrid Challenges 2023

    With Skillz joining in, we just MIGHT manage to finish in 1st place. But it will be close.. :D
  32. Recent Changes in projects

    At least it's not another Russian math project. ;) From the basic info, it looks like it's attempting to predict the Ion Conductivity of Lithium Phosphides, at least in part to try to improve battery technology. Could be interesting, but probably won't be added to the stats sites for a while...
  33. Weekly DC Stats - 03SEP2023

    Yup. A single task that took 337 days to run. :P And there is only one more active task in the system. The person who has it has been running it for about 260 days. If they complete it successfully, that will be the last credits from the RNA project and it will be shutting down soon after that...
  34. PrimeGrid Challenges 2023

    BoincTasks can sort by estimated remaining time on tasks in progress as well as tasks that have not been started yet.
  35. Weekly DC Stats - 02APR2023

    Thanks for the continued stats, Stefan! I have all of my computers set to run a single LHC task and a single LHC-dev task using a single CPU thread on each. The LHC tasks use a lot of RAM, so running multiples generally isn't a good idea, and while some of the applications support multiple...
  36. Question Replace fan, or entire CPU cooler?

    I find it very interesting that replacing the dying front 15mm fan that I had capped at 700rpm to keep it from screaming, with a new 25mm fan with much higher airflow and a more normal control curve actually didn't seem to make any difference at all in CPU temps with the same 100% load...
  37. Question Replace fan, or entire CPU cooler?

    Thank you all for the input. I ordered a three pack of 25mm fans and will probably swap both of the fans on the cooler. The 25mm fan in the middle of the cooler seems to be working fine still so I might put one new fan on the front first and test the performance, then swap both to see if the...
  38. Question Replace fan, or entire CPU cooler?

    I'll have to see if I still have the box somewhere, but I don't remember it including a third set of clips, although I do remember that it had a paper with a part number to order more clips if you want to add a third fan. I know that Arctic lists a 6 year warranty on the fans, but when I tried...
  39. Question Replace fan, or entire CPU cooler?

    I hadn't looked at the fan specs, so I appreciate that info. Not having to worry about really high CFM makes things a little easier. There is a 25mm fan in the center of the heat sink, but the clips for the front fan definitely won't fit anything bigger than a 15mm fan. They only just barely...
  40. Question Replace fan, or entire CPU cooler?

    I checked. There aren't any holes under the stickers. But thank you for the suggestion.
