Folding Forum

anyone got a link or stats on a 4p 6348s PPD?

This is a HFM.NET Site by a 4P system, but am unsure of the CPUs used (http://weather.mfc-cs.com/haf/).

yeah ... i am not getting too much out of that ... but thank you for your time ... still looking .... thinking ... on a budget ...
(everyones budget is different ... my budget)
these might be some "Sleeper cores to keep an eye on" ... but cant find any hard folding data on them

according to this .... http://www.cpubenchmark.net/multi_cpu.html

2x 6348s out preform 4x 6278 ... i said HUMMMmmm ... but thats is not folding
so i am sniffing around

Ask over to [H], that would be your best bet.

I don't know if you got your answer, but in their database I found a quad cpu configuration with 6278s. The test you care about the most for folding is FPU performance, and is not going to be anything extraordinary there. A 2P system with 6348 will not take a 4P with 6278 in FP performance. Will merely be half to 60% of the 4p performance.

Asking @ [H] won't help, to my knowledge none of us ran Abu Dahbi Opterons and there is no incetive now to switch, rumors put them 1-2% ahead of 62xx chips

yeah ... i took building another 4p off the table ... and i know ALOT of [H] are not coming back ... NEWS FLASH ... they are all hanging out at Burkley or bit coin ... but i am just hanging in there ... i was discouraged the other day ... when i fired up my GPUs for the first time in a few months ...and found that are making about .... well .... their PPD went from 215k to 365k ...so ,,, alot more incentive to do GPU folding for the "new in coming people" ... but hay ... what should i care i only got what? $12-14k in my 4Ps and 2X $700 GPU can do better than one of my 4Ps ... i turned the GPUs back off ... and stopped looking at upgrading the cpu's ... but i dont care ... i got what i got ... and i am going to fold on it ... until the death of BIGADV or the PPD incentive for GPUs is so skewed that its not worth the electrisity to fold with CPUs ... then .... im gonna go hang at Burkley too ... so HOW do 6348s do folding ??? ... the answer is ... why bother ... CPUs are obsolete here ... BANG for the BUCK ... a gaming system ...

CPUs with AVX support, when Pande Group can work that support in to new fahcores, will double the CPU performance.

Anyone who says CPUs are obsolete for FAH should reconsider their position, if not now, sometime not long from now.

Hi 7im ... 8D .. good to see you again ... my position is .... invested ... i have what i have ... and i am not investing ANY more money or time ... and in my world ... the friendly inter-team competition\cooperation (healthy sibling rivalry ... if you will) has been kept alive by only one guy ... who keeps dogging me ... other than that ... i am doing nothing ... those boxen will sit in the corner and run till they melt down. if something changes ... it will be on this end ...i guess its the spirit is broken ... not the hardware ... However .. with ALL that aside and to stay on topic ... now ... here ... today ... at this moment in time
... i am going to still have to stand by my statement yesterday ... bang for the buck + efficient use of power = a GPU build

good bunch of guys here ... i kinda miss it
