Decided to Bail Out on SETI for a Short While
(Message 1791109)
Posted 28 May 2016 by TOM Post: That is sad, the targeted GBs data is probably the best we ever had. Maybe it is the best data, but the Credit per WU is not. I know... it's all just for science, but after 15 jears of crunching for seti@hohme it's time to push the button... => seti@home := off => einstein@home := on Maybe i'll be back if this mess is fixed... |

Zum anderen habe ich mir noch eine simple Batch Datei gebastelt, die steckengebliebene Downloads regelmäßig durch kurzes Anhalten der Übertragung wiederbelebt: "C:\Program Files\BOINC\boinccmd" --set_network_mode never 2 timeout 125 %~f0 Einfach aber wirkungsvoll...

Posted 25 Aug 2011 by TOM Post: Apache and IIS are Webservers, a Proxy is a complete different thing. It works like a broker in the middle, and controls who has access to the internet. It can do some caching and it acts as a substitute for the user and chages the users IP-Adress into its own address and vice versa. This may be the reason why it works with the d***** router at HE. |

Posted 25 Aug 2011 by TOM Post: Proxy is a Programm or Service that needs to be installed and configured on a PC. This is commonly used on a Server like Squid on Linux or MS-Proxy on Windows- Server. I don't think that there are so much versions for a normal Windows Workstation. As a quick search i found FreeProxy. Looks like freeware and runs on windows, but i never tested it. Maybe you can install a Squid-Proxy on Linux in a VM. I will take a look at that, i have to get my kids under control if(!) we hopefully get some more bandwith. BUT(!) there are potentital security risks about doing that, because a normal Proxy is placed behind a firewall (or two) to prevent someone to access this proxy from ouside. You have to drill some holes in the firewall to get this going. AND(!) a Proxy is not a Programm that is installed like klick and here we go, there is some configuration to do. |

Posted 13 Aug 2011 by TOM Post: You should be able to run more than one WU at the same time on a gtx570. First try 2 wu's at the same time, this will push it to aroud 90%. For instructions try this link: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=63210 But be aware of good cooling !!! |

(Message 1123797)
Posted 2 Jul 2011 by TOM Post:
You should be able to use it, if you use hardware always look for bios/firmware/driver updates.
You will see a single 1 TB Disk, if you think it's too big you can do patitions on top to organize storage. 1 TB of storage i think it's a normal disk size for actual PCs. (A SSD is, now a days, probably, cheaper and easier in both setup and use A SSD of 1 TB in size is very expensive in comparison to your hard disk configuration, a good 500GB HD it's about 35€, a 500GB SSD it's about 800€ or more! Reliability of SSD's is an issue, because this is a very new kind of product. There are problems with the build in memory controlers, just right now there is a call back by a big SSD-Vendor. What Windows OS do you use? SSD's need special otions to avoid problems. They are build on flash memory cells which can be written only a 1000 times, so the memory controler has to spread the write commands across the disk, to guaratee the lifetime of each memory cell on the SSD. You shouln'd do defrags on a SSD, and there are problems with hiberation and cache files which should be displaced to a non SSD. Win7 is partialy aware and turns of defragmentation if you connect an SSD. Older Win OS's do not and you can easyly kill your SSD with defrag. A combination of a small affordable SSD and HD's is actual the best thing to do. The new Z68 chipset contains funtions which supports a special combination of a small SSD for speeding and regular HD's for storage and reliability. A RAID 0+1 is nuch more fault tolerant as a single SSD, if you lose one HD you can continue to work and order a new HD, if you lose a single SDD you got noting but your backup, bertter you should build a RAID 1 using 2 SSD's blowing up the price. SSD or not, always have a good backup!!! I personally use a RAID 1 build of 2*2TB HD's for System and a RAID 5 build of 4*2TB HD's for data storage both on hardware controllers. AND some extermal USB-HD's for backup. OK, this is overkill for crunching, but the System is also used for other things than seti ;-). If you only want to build cruncher a RAID 1 containing 2*500GB HD's would be very sufficient. |

Posted 26 May 2011 by TOM Post: The Silversone ST1500 1500W PSU has 4 6Pin PCIE Connectors and 4 8Pin PCIE Connectors. If you look at the EVGA SPECS of the gtx590 you need 2 8Pin or 4 6Pin Connectors for each card: Requirements Inside the EVGA gtx590 Box you can find 2 adapters for making one 8Pin out of two 6Pins. So you can run 3 gtx590 cards with the ST1500 PSU. Only if you want to run 4 gtx590 you need to have a second PSU. |

Posted 25 May 2011 by TOM Post: I have 3 gtx580 Hydrocopper2 with 1.5GB Ram in my system. I run 4 WU's on each card at the same time. The GPU load on the cards is around 90%-95% and memory consumption is around 1200MB. I think you don't need to buy a gtx580 with 3GB RAM because the GPU load is already at max with 4 WU's. The power consumption of my system is around 850 to 950W. You will need a 1200W PSU for 3 gtx580 or 2 gtx590 or a 1500W PSU to run 4 gtx580 or 3 gtx590. I'm looking for a PSU to run 4 gtx590 but they are hard to find. I think i'll try to put two 850W PSU together in a spcial case. |

Updated drivers from Nvidia?
(Message 1106037)
Posted 14 May 2011 by TOM Post: Don't play around with overclocking on this card! You can find some videos on YouTube with smoking gtx590... Thats why i dicidet to buy 3 gtx580 instead of 2 gtx590 and im still fighting whith the drivers. First i was lucky to see NVidia updating the drivers very quickly. But they fix some problems and unfortunatly you get some new. This downclocking problem with the new driver and the lunatics app is crazy. I don't know if you can use the 266.58 driver with the gtx590. The 270.x is dealing with cuda 4.0 causing your gfx to clock down do medium power state and triple the crunching time. May be you can make some experiance and keep me informed what's going on. Hopefully the guys from lunatics will get the new opt app working with cuda 4.0. cu |
