Miss Piggy finished her first BigAdv last night. About 21hrs run time netted 121k.

First "portable" computer I used was a Kaypro? It weighed 35lb and had a 9"? screen. It was about the size of a small microwave.

The joke was calling them Lugables.

:rofl: Pat you really shouldn't show your age like that

OK, ran it a week straight at 3.96ghz with the RAM at ~1500mhz, now let's try 4.2ghz with the RAM at 1900mhz. :lildevil: It took me several attempts to get it to boot into Windows, but now I think it have it stable, and burning 600 watts.

Hmmm... I hit 80°C which is where I call time out. I had to drop it back down.

How did the WU go until that temperature?

Not enough gain at 4.2ghz to make it worth the risk.
It is now folding a WU 6900 at 11:50 running 4ghz.
4.2ghz only upped it to 11:30.
Seems once you hit 4, need to dial up the volts to go higher, which quickly spirals out of control. Even the guys running water cooling aren't going past 4.3ghz for long before they turn it down.

But... It's a 2.6ghz chip. That's a heck of an overclock.

Just curious, what temp are the processors running at 4Ghz?

Which Noctua cooler do you have?

Put a NF-P14 on the other side in Push/Pull? It's a 140mm fan with 120mm mounting holes.
