My current WU says it's 2,000,000 steps. Is that alot? It took like 11hrs. to get to 50%. I chose normal when I was setting it up.

I'm running FAH 6.34 SMP 32-bit. Is that the latest? Is there a 64bit flavor?

They are also Huge uploads, and are pretty time sensitive, with the net connection you have you might not get the file to the server on time, so try it in 1 unit mode before you start running them, also, they need 3 days of Continuous work. and the due date is usually just in time for an i7@3.6 to make it. ymmv

For a dual core thats pretty normal, the cpu client is on the slower side, it takes my i7 about 6 hours @3.8, and my p2x4 about 8-12, so for a dual core i would expect about a day per wu.

I have a quad core @ 2.8

hrm... thats strange then... screen shot? are you using gpu tracker? or the Standford client.

I think you're probably right. That bigadv unit really put him over. I'll probably hit 1,000,000 about 1 day later.

hmm why cannot i get FAH GPU Tracker V2 to use -bigadv

you need 8 or more threads at your disposal...

That's bullcrap, imo. Discriminating against AMD.

[diluzio91]

not if you have a dual socket board, the big adv wu's actually need that many cores to get finished by the deadline.
the i7's get in through a loop hole.

lol, I know. I just like complaining about it.
