You will still find that SMP brings higher PPD that 2xWindows clients, providing you run them 24x7.

It infact it stated exactly the opposite.
That this isnt or wasnt a point ajustment.
It said on the woodcrest U shouldnt see any point change.
Its funny though everytime they say it benched exactly the same as other WU's,people seem to wanna
believe what there told insted of what they see !!!Less points !!!LOL
this part is true ,You will still find that SMP brings higher PPD that 2xWindows clients, providing you run them 24x7.
Fold ON !!!!!!
There one guy over there who keeps insisting there has been no drop, because the points went up then returned to normal LMAO If normal is less points ,thats a drop ,I dont care how U look at it LMAO

In effect they have optimized this for the intel quad core then?
Nope! It has nothing to do with optimization. For a couple months there have been rumblings on F@H about changing the way points are awarded when V6 of the software comes out.
The PS2 guys have been told their machines can do 20-30 times the work and they think they should be getting 30 times the points. hysterical.gif
The Windows SMP guys say they should be getting the same points as the Linux SMP guys even though Windows is no where nearly as effcient at SMP. laughing1.gif
The Linux SMP guys are happy! Or were happy with the status quo. Personally I'd argue we are getting the points we are entitled to for having to run Linux.
The GPU guys are arguing that they tie up a processor and have to buy additional hardware so they should get more points. (I tend to agree the $$$ expenditure is more for less return than a dual-core/VMware/Linux SMP.
All the above is just a long winded way of saying: I think this is the beginning of the points reallocation. My opinion only. There is one thread about this here.... http://forum.folding...topic18362.html
This appears to be the hottest topic in the Linux SMP forum of late. I want my 2300ppd WUs back! tongue.gif"
MHO... Linux SMP still rules. We'll have to wait till V6 of the clients is out to see what the final results are.
guys and gals. We'll have to see how it all shakes down when V6 versions are released for all clients.

Yah! "It benchmarks the same as the others" just doesn't fly!!! Sooo not true. Someone is rigging the results on their end so the talking heads spew nonsense. MHO. I've always thought Zim was on the Outcasts. No proof. Just me jumping to conclusions.

Vipe, the thing I like most about you is you are a straight shooter! No politics. You just say what's on your mind. I used to be that way until it got me banned from a couple of tittybar forums. No need for details there. :dancing4:
I finally got a chance to read the thread after my last post. Keep your eyes peeled. I backed ya up and asked the question. Hahahaha!

Get real people !!!!Points are talked about on every team,on every teams forum.
Finally someone speaks the truth! I want to puke ever time someone says it's all about the science! If it were all about the science for contributors, my old P-4 laptop using a standard console client would have satisfied my moral obligation if any. For contributors, it's all about the team competition. :wink: The science is a side benefit providing a warm fuzzy feeling. The warm fuzzy feeling doesn't motivate people to run out and spend $XX,XXX on folding farms. Competition does! :-)
My E-6600 got one of these and the extra cache does indeed help. The hit was about 1 minute 20 seconds per frame. :roll: I built and ultra budget E-4300 ($160.) to stop points hemorrhaging to my old teammate Vipe. It was doing great until it got it's first 2608. It's going to take about 80 hours folding 24/7 as a dedicated folder. :roll: Fortunately I have a mobo suitable for overclocking laying around. An E-4300 just won't cut it at a stock 1.8.
Hey Zim, are you Zim01? If so you have to take anything Viper and I say with a grain of salt. :wink: Marty wouldn't have won his challenge without you coming to his aid. :evil:
