So I just got my new machine running. 12 more threds going at 4GHz, so this is going to be fun. It's hot as he.. where my computers are, but I guess thats the price of the game.
Quick about my self. My name is Karl and I'm 36 years old and I run around the house all day. I used to work in sales, but I hit the wall and found out that I have bipolar dissorder. I'm on disability now. I was on wcg a few years ago for a bit and now I'm back. It gives me a good feeling to help out. |

Crunching all day long. It's good that the summer is really bad in Norway this year, so I can keep my machines running.
It helped to get the new machine running. Now running a total of 36 threads :) |

Hope everyone here is having a good summer, plan on getting back to crunching harder soon after i recently uppgraded my main rig to a i7-6800k 6/12 cores so i can keep crunching while still using it. So the old normal i7 will be a dedicated cruncher once this insane summer heat is done...wtb a basement
----------------------------------------And welcome to my fellow Norwegian ![]()
Crunching in memory of the love of my life

Kjetil, great to hear that you are upgrading your crunching power, every WU counts!
----------------------------------------Thanks Chris! Good to hear it is healing in the right direction, even if it is not healing as quickly as we all hoped for. Yesterday I lost my Seasonic 600W PSU :( Something smelled burnt... I've had it running for 10 or 13 years though - crunching 24/7 most of the time - so I guess it had done its toll. Also, being a Seasonic unit, it failed pretty gracefully. Something burnt out a bit, but it did not take any other components with it or create any smoke (just a little bit of a smell, but not too bad actually). Graceful degradation/failure - a key to high end PSUs! Now I have swapped it out for a Fractal Design Tesla R2 800W that I had laying around, intended for another cruncher...but it will have to be put on ice for a while anyway so this PSU has now come to good use! Perhaps the summer heat killed the old Seasonic PSU... Anyway, it's up and crunching again! ![]() Join The International Team: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=CK9RP1BKX1 AMD TR2990WX @ PBO, 64GB Quad 3200MHz 14-17-17-17-1T, RX6900XT @ Stock AMD 3800X @ PBO AMD 2700X @ 4GHz |

Hello team,
----------------------------------------Oh yes, it sure did, Chris! i am very glad that it failed gracefully, not killing my CPU or RAM or SSD or Motherboard while doing so. Happy to be crunching on again! :) ![]() Join The International Team: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=CK9RP1BKX1 AMD TR2990WX @ PBO, 64GB Quad 3200MHz 14-17-17-17-1T, RX6900XT @ Stock AMD 3800X @ PBO AMD 2700X @ 4GHz |
