    and congratulations for the team on breaking into the 2000 barrier!!! go sharky's go!!!

    Don't mind. We might crack that top 1K before the years end after all.

    Saps, I am using the 3.25 beta now, before when I first started I wasnt, and yes now I am using forceasm and advmethods.

    Speedy, I'm running 2.47GHz for Folding, my temp never goes above 42.5C so I'm not worried.

    I play games with folding on, I don't care, works fine for me, lol.

    Oh and about the member names thing... people should definitely be using their Sharky name for this...

    One thing on the adv and force. Every link I read on them had you put adv first and force second. BTW even with my old generic PSU you I'm getting remarkably stable rails. I'm very tempted to up my clockspeed beyond 2.16Ghz. It appears my old problem was in fact two-fold no pun intended. First my Antec PSU was very much dying. But second it seems clear that I need .05v more to fold than I do for my everyday OC and gaming. Only problem is that means running 2.1v to maintain my 2.5Ghz or dropping down to 2.4Ghz at my old 2.5Ghz vcore. In the end the time difference per WU is probably not titanic. Sure its probably a couple dozen minutes per WU but as I always preach stability is the key. After I finish my next WU I'm probably clock up to say 2.4 and test its stability. I don't wanna do it mid WU because if it crashes I lose credit for the work I'd done on the existing WU and I cannot get it back.
    BTW here's the log file on the WU I'm on currently. Again at a mere 2.16Ghz but with the SSE its taking only 4m47sec avg per 1%. That's less than 8Hours per 500point WU. I still have yet to figure out the Mhz to time ratio.

    The additions only apply to AMD cpus with SSE. If you got Intel you're already optimized. If you got an AXP or Barton though see page 9 and 10 of this thread

    I was wondering why your WU production stopped after just 1!

    Don't worry, I'll be folding for BSF again soon. I've only got one rig running right now, but I will have two more up soon. Then I'll be crunchin' WU's for Sharky's and BSF full time.

    what vcore do you usually run on saps? How long has it been running like that?

    I've been folding for the last 2 days at 2.47GHz at 1.96v. I also ran Prime95 for a little bit just for the hell of it. I've been playing games just like normal too. Looks like I'm good to go.

    how long do you figure that cpu will last at 1.96v? Also, how much of a folding increase would you get from 2.3-2.47, can you make a guess off-hand? Is it worth it?

    It will last much longer than you need it to.

    Most people think it's voltage that kills CPU's - while that is partly true, the more important factor is temperature variation. 1.96v is really nothing for the chip, but the real damage occurs when it goes from room temperature to 60C, then 40C, then 60C again under full load, etc etc. The expansion and contraction of the die begins to wear the chip down.

    Oh come on, 3 years is nothing.

    Got a question, I have found out that when I download a packet, that I have to restart my computer and click on my short cut to get sse boost. I checked my program file and it has two cores(FahCore_78 and FahCore_65) in there and I think this is my problem. So which one do I get rid of and which one do I keep.
    i7 920 @3GH, P6T Deluxe V2, OCZ HP 6GB(3x2)Kit(7-7-7-16), 128GB Patriot SSD, 250GB SATA(7200)Hitachi, WD 500gb, 1000W BFG PSU, SATA Pioneer DVD CD burner, XFX5870 XXX edition(900/1300), LG LED 2350V, XFI Titanium Fatal1ty champion, Logitech X-540, Lian Li PC-B70 Full Tower Case, Win7 HP.

    Before my Antec went bad I would 2.5Ghz on 2.05v and 2.4Ghz on 1.95v which were stable for gaming but apparently I'm going to need 2.1vcore for 2.5 and 2v for 2.4. I'm likely to wait until I get my Antec back from RMA though since this generic one has me a bit worried. I'm plugging along at a very conservative 166x13 right now. After I finish a WU I'll try a 2v at 2.4Ghz run but if I recall correctly when I go that high this generic PSU bails out on the 3.3v
