My new work box.

[Steevo]

At work lightning claimed my PC. A ****ty old P4 1.4Ghz with 700ish MB of RAM and a crappy Nvidia card.




I rallied my troops and managed to get this,

They cancelled my PSU so I had to order anotehr one.



Bastards. But I did get this, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817163112

So I feel better.

Too bad about the PSU, the 500w is a GREAT unit.

 

[Steevo]

It is alive and running quick.

3.2Ghz CPU
800MHZ RAM 5-5-5-12

Too much power for work. Looks nice though.

And the last of them.

I had issues at work with a few programs, apparently some of our **** software isn't written with dual core or HT in mind. So I spent about four hours tracking down programs and setting affinity.



But after that and a bit higher vcore (stupid vdroop) 1.4375 so under load it ends up at 1.395 actually, I was getting early WU ends on the SMP client of F@H.


But all better now and the MX-1 has set in . 44 on core 0 and 41 on core 1 under the F@H load and with Prime running 47-45.

Nifty looking box. Nice wiring.

I just stuffed them out of the way, it is only a work box. I should have got some longer round IDE cables and loom. But oh well. I hope to neer have to look at the insides again untill it needs cleaned out.
