You have to turn it on in bios though.

While i agree how neatly speedstep compliments the C2D's COOL (NOT hearing my large diameter slow rotation fans

) efficiency it was my understanding and experience that its role is to throttle back cpu clock speed to 1.6 GHZ when the PC is idle or if activity falls under a certain threshold rather than being initiated by the cpu's actual temp?

it actually does both, it will throttle back when the temp hits 81c... there's an old toms hardware video floating around somewhere that shows them removing the HSF from an A-xp, a P3, and a P4 while they're running and the P4 was the only one that survived because it had speedstep

back on topic...congrats to jhtalisman on 500k

Aye, that be the case.

It was initially just implemented in mobile chips .... who buys a bleeding edge 1Ghz chip for their high end desktop & wants it to throttle back, right? But then, the realised that less people would claim for their chips "lifetime warranty" if they had some sort of self protection built in

AMD is yet to catch on ... Athlons just melt & eventually burst into flame.

Shot Down .... In a blaze of glory!

Ty. Sorry to be so late with the thanks, I've been avoiding the Internets for a bit - real life has been a bit busy both at work and at home

Congrats Debro, now Zevia won't be so lonely in the 1M club

**Arachne** · 19-05-2008

Nice job Debro!

jhtalisman · 23-05-2008

Great job debro! Now you start folding under my username and help me get there

*debro* · 30-05-2008

Ooooh! We're slowing down ... what's happened to everyone?

We have chasers on the horizon .. just 3 weeks to avert a disaster ...

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

troy512 · 31-05-2008

im almost there,

only 997664 more to go.

*Chriso* · 31-05-2008

Even with 4 computers folding I only get a measly few hundred PPD....I should be getting a dual core lappy in the summer though so my contribution will be *slightly* bigger!

The new nVidia GPU client is out. Supposed to be even faster than PS3 client.

indeed it is, I'm getting ~4500ppd from my 8800gt alone

now I just need some better cooling so its not over 80*c all the time

Juggernaut · 3 Weeks Ago

I'm getting around 4,700 PPD from my 8800GT. Running 70-76C. I haven't tried playing a game with the client running yet. Wonder what will happen.... 5 FPS?

**jwill427** · 3 Weeks Ago

cool beans, a fellow 8800gt'er

from what I've read over at the folding forums most games will just cause the gpu client to slow down and not effect the fps, but some games do have fps issues or will crash if you try to run them with the gpu client running

I haven't had time to game lately so I have no idea what will happen

I did get in there this morning and blow the dust out of the stock HSF which dropped my card temps about 15c and allowed me to overclock a little

but of course I pushed it too far and got a bunch of EUEs today

**Womble** · 2 Weeks Ago

I added my 186 points.

Now you start folding under my username and help me get there __________________ My Current Phenomenal System I love life...Yeah, I'm sad, but at the same time, I'm really happy that something could make me feel that sad. It's like...It makes me feel alive, you know. It makes me feel human. The only way I could feel this sad now is if I felt something really good before. So I have to take the bad with the good. So I guess what I'm feeling is like a beautiful sadness. Courage and perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into air. The truth can be found here http://jhtalisman.blogspot.com/ The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them-words shrink things that seemed limitless when in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for the want of an understanding ear. - Stephen King, intro to "The Body."
