Message boards : Number crunching : Who is overclocking their machine?

My computer's not overclocked by much. It's a Intel P4 3.0GHz running @ 3010MHz. It was boosted a bit in the BIOs on my ASUS mobo.

My P4 3.0 GHz takes 4-5 hours.

Do WU times vary? The guy above me has his Wus complete around 3 hours with the same CPU as me.

Hi Keith,

Yes, both of the machine I got the estimate from are single cpu. And even if they were dual cpus, boinc would schedule only job on one cpu (2 running at a time).

Would other users mind posting some of their running times? (windows, Linux and mac)

I've tested the new WUs this afternoon and they estimate and run as 1.5 hours on a P4 3.2 GHz. We will deploy this evening.

Is yours a single CPU ?

I started on 5.02 earlier today

No downlaod problems.

On Windoze at 3.06GHz HT running 1 CPU charmm 5.02 took 4 hrs 9 mins. That was down from 5 hrs 30 mins for charmm 5.01 on this host.

It just occured to me, that actually that is only using 50% of my CPU. So if I run both CPU's I can crank out 2 in about the same time, so effective wu time is about 2 hours. Higher but not as far off your estimate as being more than double.

I just cranked my 3.06GHz HT and 3.8GHz HT up to 2 CPUs to see the results. I had been not running boinc on them up until Sept 1st, put out too much heat into my room which requires extra A/C for me to be comfortable, they can take it but I can't. I was not going to run both CPUs until Oct 1st, when it cools off more, but I'll test it for the week-end.

4 wu download now, no problems.

My 3 results: http://docking.utep.edu/result.php?resultid=8591
http://docking.utep.edu/result.php?resultid=8594
http://docking.utep.edu/result.php?resultid=8910

For my 3.0GHz P4, looks like it averages between 17,000 - 18,000 seconds.

Strange. I got my several WUs about 30mins ago fine.

Another crash! Looks like it crashes as soon as it finishes or something.

Before I cruch anymore WUs here (if this is happening to just me, I wasted about 16-18hrs of time), I want to know if anyone else is having this problem.

EDIT: Just noticed post above me. What about the current WUs? I'm assuming they are still affected?

Greetings from AMD Users. :)
