Ok, so I get it. You never lived in Las Vegas. You just bought a mobile home here to take back to your home in Yermo. That's a good deal on the mobile home. What year is it and do you know of any more deals? I have been trying to get my Mom to move up to Vegas for a long time now but she keeps saying it is too expensive to live here. Maybe a cheap mobile home will change her mind.

Bump to revieve the thread... I would be interested in a true 64 bit windows engine to run seti on... As far as tips to optimize a 64 bit machine so it can crunch numbers... Run as few 64 bit apps as possible while crunching numbers... for some reason the 32 bit ones don't seem to slow it down much because the Wow64 emulator is always running if anything 32 bit is running... Good luck trying to turn off all of the 32 bit stuff... There are not enough programs and drivers out there yet to do it on most systems... Turn off virtual memory... It will still be there after you reboot, but it will be in ram... I did it on my machine and it allocated 646 meg of ram to virtual memory... Before I turned of virtual memory interger speed was about 4.5 trillion opps a second and floating was about 2 trillion... After I turned it off and windows took some of the ram for it, that number jumped to 5.6 trillion opps a second and floating jumped to 2.7 trillion... Turn off indexing services to all of the drives in your system... It seems to make a huge difference in 64bit... You will notice it more after you reboot... Oh, I almost forgot.. Don't allow anything to be added to 64 or 32 Iexplorer... Not only is it a pain in the but because most of it doesn't work... It seems to slow the system down.. A lot of the plugins stay memory resident and consume threads even if your not running Iexplorer... Just so people know, this is what I am running... 2.66ghz Core 2 Extreme (4 processors on 1 die) 8 meg of cache... Intel D975xbx2 motherboard... Side note... The latest bios update (2395) for Xp64 with this board trashes the system, and Xp64 will not run... Xp32 will run with the latest bios update (I found out the hard way, had to go back to bios 2333 and start my xp64 install all over...) 4 gig of 533mhz mem... (I know, i should get 800 mhz memory for it... But price 4, 2 gig EEC chips... I'll Wait till they come down a bit in price before I buy them...) ATI Radeon x550 video card... Windows Xp64 with all of the latest updates... If anyone thinks of anything else, or knows about other threads I missed, let me know... Scott Shaver... Shvrdavid... ID: 491207 · |

You are probably going to cring, but I am running a 400 watt power supply... I checked the system right after I put it together and the most the box would draw was 320 watts... I do plan on getting a larger supply that will support SLI and more hard drives in the near future... I have not tried overclocking it, and probably wont with the power supply that is in it now...

You are probably going to cring, but I am running a 400 watt power supply... Cringe Cringe Ha I am running a 450 watt PS and OC quite a bit with no problems. I don't think most systems ever exceed 300 to 400 watts unless they have a lot of hard drives running off the PS. IMHO it is better to provide the system with a high quality PS [one that does not vary in the power it is able to supply despite variable demand] rather than choosing one that is able to provide a high peak. My system currently Antec 450 watt PS ASUS P5B Delux WiFi MB Corsair DDR2 8500 Memory @ 2.25V Intel E6600 CPU OC 3.5Ghz @ 1.5V 2 Sata Disk 1 DVD 16x Burner 1 Thermatake Thphoon CPU cooling 1 Case Cooling fan The system has been very stable for almost 3 months now, except for Pilot error when I am screwing around with software/hardware experiments. When we finally figure it all out, all the rules will change and we can start all over again. ID: 491629 · |

What did you do to overclock your chip... Will they run at a higher multiplier??? ID: 491912 · |

Where I can find source code for 64bit app? I can use Windows Rev 2.0 Source Package for compilig 64 bit app? I'm realy dissapointed for performace of DeNitro client and I want to compile my own client with emt64 and sse3 support based on newest modified source code. emt64(setiathome-5.15-DeNitro-em64t.exe): http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=446447973 CPU time 7468.34375 Claimed credit 54.1668195307852 x86_sse3(SaH_5.15_KWSN_SSE3_Ben-Joe_2.0_C.exe): http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=437890908 CPU time 7078.21875 Claimed credit 62.2119279497402 ID: 495813 · |
