F@h - how best to set it up for this set of PC's?

Sorry, i did something dumb there... It's actually 2 quad core cpu's per motherboard x 10 motherboards. So i'm running 10 actual systems with 8 cores each. As for the projects all being the same, i went and looked again, and it's only 2 machines that are doing it, and there's a good...

F@h - how best to set it up for this set of PC's?

I've got this 20 CPU Nehalem setup I'm stress testing to see if the motherboard is adequate in terms of quality for us to sell. I've got the non-HT cpu's (too expensive to buy the big boys) and I'm wondering how best to setup Folding to maximize my results. Currently I'm running 2 instances...

Weekly stats for July 6, 2009

If i've got some machines that I need to stress test, (10 x 16 cores) what project would you guys like me to run in the name of TA? Being able to look up my stats would be a plus.

Is the Extended ATX form factor a legitimate form factor?

Browsing around, i'm finding spec sheets for ATX, BTX, Micro-ATX etc. But for the life of me, i can't find any documentation about the Extended ATX (EATX) form factor. Does this exist? Who's the governing body? (it doesnt appear to be formfactors.org) I can always build to SSI EEB, but EATX...

Phoenetic Pronunciation of Serial ATA's acronym

Serial ATA, the new push in hard drive storage; has an interesting, word like, acronym. This causes a bit of confusion, because people like to make words out of acronyms and use that instead of calling it by it's name. Basically, I work in support for a server manuf. and when Serial ATA comes up...

D2OL: TA member from years past, donating useless Cands/Confs

I've been cracking d2ol for "Team Hardwaregeeks" for a while now, (since rc5 completed, ta_pirates) and since I do not like the d2ol client at all i'm switching to RC5-72 (for "Team BKN", sorry), I figured you guys wouldnt mind my modest pile of unused cands/confs. Much love, NDGeist...
