Very nice Viper, the mug color and design go well together.

Now, now....we can't have that Xavier. What does it need to get you going?




Time and some patience.... Ive got it running on a different PSU and wiring harness
what it needs is me going thru the wiring and old PSU to determine if it's a PSU issue or a wiring issue
considering it was running for a bit on the old PSU 
 
what happened was the CMOS got corrupted(It reverts to old flash) - since the Kepler are not recognized on the cmos i had to pull the rig apart
take the water cooled keplers out and watching for leaks - and i had a minor one (that caused no issue)
put in old card (9500) and reflash cmos - done
take out 9500 ...put cards back in - done
 
in doing so i think one of my wiring bundles got caught in the fan blades of a fan and are causing a short now (because it was running on the old psu and wiring bundle for awhile)
 
and it's pitch black basement - i have limited working hours  and poor eyesight doesn't help
so i like to work daylight hours for max light .
morning not enough light - like noon - 3:00 is optimal - after that light goes away - only window is between houses so only a few hours of light
 
 
i have to look for problem - if i can't find it...then i place new psu permanently in with new harnesses
could be I did in the old psu as well with the short - so i have to figure out the issue
 
daylight hours can be hectic... still dealing with lawyers, bills,getting estate settled, with doctors, family, relatives, thank you cards, etc in the way as well
and i have to cook ,clean, shovel snow...
 
just doesn't seem to be enough time in days sometimes
 
it's a shame it is my main gaming rig...had to re-install some of my games on the other rig
 
 
Im gonna retire one rig comin up and moving to maxwell as well...so Im gonna retire that MB - swap MB and get rid of the 1st run cpu (cpu with flaw - 1st batch had flaw)
and give my 670's to my brother

Mugs are looking good Viper, but we don't have a lot of people signed up.  Unfortunately, I don't have the time to organize a publicity effort as I usually do to get people to come out and fold...

I made a thread in the General discussions to hopefully get some more attention. Hope that it is not moved, as I requested.

I didn't authorize your retirement... ergo, yes.

YES! our little run off last year pushed me into folding full time, so you need to fold atleast 1 wu.

For Wrinvert, I'll do some folding.
 
Don't know where my PPD average will be or if Nvidia has every fixed the slow folding driver issue.  But I will slowly start up each rig to make sure they are ready before knocking them into 24/7 mode.

Registered.
 
EDIT: However, one question regarding the mentioned rule: "You may not pause, stop or otherwise disrupt your normal flow of work units to gain an advantage."
 
I understand that the rule is meant to deter others from "gaining an advantage" by doing so. However, I feel I need to ensure that one would still be abiding by the rules if one needed to pause/stop folding for things like maintenance, power outage, or the like?
 
Obviously, these things wouldn't prevent most individuals from folding for more than a handful of hours, in most cases. (Any MORE would then become apparent on statistics webpages like Standford's, and Extreme Overclocker's any way.)

Pretty sure that's more in reference to people dumping work units they don't like, that's been frowned on for a long time. Also to prevent people from running up a bunch of work units to 99% then pausing until 5 mins into the competition and dropping a bunch of units that were basically done before the start.

So far, so good.  Quartz is handling the thermal load quite nicely and is producing around 75k PPD.  Just need to dust the internals before the start of TCZ and it should be good to go.

Signed up and almost ready to go. Had to sign up at 65k PPD because I don't have my machine fully setup and I haven't been folding for 3 or 4 weeks and don't know what the PPD will be when I get my X99 up and running. Thanks to all who are getting things ready for the TZC.

At the last event I think they just added up the total ppd for each team then tried to balance it out with the "Others".
