The Redline @ OC3D milestone thread !

The bonus points are related to how fast you complete the WU, the faster it is completed the more points are awarded. SMP wu's without the passkey are only awarded the stated points.

To qualify for the bonus point program ten A3 or -bigadv WU's must be returned on time with a an 80% success rate and with the same passkey. As far as I know WU's completed without a passkey do not count toward the bonus point requirements.

If you are planning on running -bigadv you would want to run ten A3's first to qualify then start the -bigadv.

That's a much better explain then i did... OMFG i really was at n00b level

Agreed and I was

when I worked out how much difference bonus points make, just need to see if there is a way of checking how many WU I have completed since setting my passkey up.

Congrats to you as well!

Picked up an i7 950 on sale the day after Xmas, couldn't pass up a sealed retail box 950 for $200. It's probably about half way through it's second -bigadv WU. And of course the first one was a 2684

Thats an awesome deal Microcenter in the US has 950's for 229 thinking of overhauling my parents pc for them and going with a second i7 rig as the NH-D14 that I stole on Christmas eve for $49.99 CDN needs a more productive home than just a 1090T

Bad thing is I had to buy a board, cooler and some mem to go with it, already had a PSU and a couple of GPU2 cards to finish it.

Went cheap form the Egg and got a P6X58D Premium open box for $199 (it came with everything except manual and CD
ohmy.gif
), and 6G of cheap PC1600 GEIL ram ($69) with a NH-D14 cooler (no deal on that

)

Probaly not enough to catch you and your Cray's but enough for you to feel the heat

I've got my wife just about convinced to let me build her a rig. Probably won't be until around tax return time though (if she doesn't change her mind again before then
laugh.gif
) and I still need to get my watercooling yet for my main rig.

The Xeons won't be folding much longer unfortunately. I'll be taking one down in probably two weeks to do some Hyper-V testing for the deployment. I tried smuggling one under my coat and out the door, but at ~80lbs and being a 2U rack server it didn't quite fit.

Why didn't you hide it under you're skirt ?
 
It's like an overclocked CPU or GPU, performs better with increased airflow. Get too cold though, and it suffers from the cold bug just like a CPU!
