A Wolf among all cheeps

Now has my Intel arrived and it has gone fast. I ordered it OCT 11 and got it OCT 15 with a weekend between. I have open the side panel and looked in the case. To my satisfaction there were 3 fans, one 75-80 mm on the processor with an air canal mounted on the side panel as will steer the hot air trough perforated holes and one 120 mm on the side panel where the air will go through perforate holes and one 120 mm on the back on the case. They had mounted all cables as fine it can be.

I got a fem parts as had left. 2 USB ports with connectors to the motherboard and a contact for ditto, a speaker ground contact and a 15 holes adapter for playing with a game controller I guess. And 2 cables to a DVD-burner or what is now it.

Drivers for ASUS motherboard, Cyber Link DVD Solutions, NERO 7 Essentials, Works 8.5 and drivers for XFX GeForce 7300GT and guide for motherboards, Graphic card and Intel Dual2 Core has followed.

I have not chosen and DVD-burner, only a simple floppy and a DVD-reader. I have also choose Logitech OEM Optical Wheel Mouse, I thought it was wireless but I was mistaken. It has a cable as I must fit on the back on the computer. But it has an advantage, I need not to buy batteries at is expansive. Alternative I can use my Labtec Wireless Optical Mouse Pro.

A good friend comes to me yesterday evening so I only have unpacked the computer and all parts. But today I will shout my AMD Athlon 3200+ down and do a little maintains such to clean it before I fired it up again and instead replace my old Intel PII and fire up my Dual2 Core and download some updates, programs and fetch a new Boinc client specially for Intel. It will be unused because I long have been thinking of what as fit AMD.

Is there anyone as can give me a tip about an Optimised Boinc client specially for Intel. And it is any idea has one with SSE3?

The Core 2 Duo's are amazing. It pains me to see the adverts on TV where they promote them as the best chips in the world. (Personally I prefer my local chippy's ;) ) but it's true they are currently the best.

Lagu, my Core Duo runs 2 Folding clients. Running just one shows up in the windows manager as 100% in one core on the grpah but the bottom left corner says 50%. Run 2 and I'm at full whack.

Blackheath's said what needs to be done with BOINC and AFAIK thats it spot on.

NeoGen I almost forgot about Pirch and Mirc, That is a way the members could communicate if we do not get our java chat room back, setup a chat server exclusive to this web site? What do you think?

chat.amdusers.com Port 6667 => Maybe, Your comments

I don't know how to set a chat server, but we have it on our wishlist and Jeff has seen a few sometime ago, so I believe that soon when he has some more time off he'll set one up for us.

i think a chat server would be great

I have some chat room experience, both server admin and configuration. There are plenty of IRCD's (IRC Server Daemon) on the web.

I might be a bit rusty but i'm sure it's in my mind somewhere
