not at all! Very glad you can join us in F@M - feel free to post in the forum as well.

If you are starting the client as a service (if you answered YES to start as as service under the -configonly option) then you need to use regedit -> Find "Folding@Home" and append "-smp 7" to the FAH service commandline.

If you're starting your SMP client eg from a Windows shortcut then just append it accordingly e.g. under the Target :

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Folding@home\Folding@home\Folding@home.exe" -smp 7

Fold on! biggrin.gif

Done add -smp 7 parameter...how about set affinity for GPU...can it be done in task manager under process tab..?? i doing that way...is it right??

Yes you're right! I would love to see your FAHmon stats once you get both your i7 and GPU folding....fold on biggrin.gif

Ah no wonder! Possible to get your Evo kaki's to start folding again (eg pWs? I think only phunkydude folding for Evo now... sad.gif)

Folding on your laptop is not so ideal because of the extra heat generated, so please make sure it's well ventilated!

Ok your SMP client does not look good as it is still folding the normal Gromacs core. If it is SMP it should be "SMP2 Gromacs" under FAHmon. Can you check again if you have the correct client? And make sure to use "-smp 7" when running it? If you do then your CPU utilisation should be quite high.

I get about 14k+ ppd on the gtx460 and about 5k ppd on the 8800gt. My 8800gt is 2nd hand (bought for ~RM200) - if you don't mind, you can pick up some good and cheap 2nd hand h/w and start right away!

Fold on! biggrin.gif

Yup!! my laptop well ventilated, it have dual fan and also a notebook cooler pad underneath..also i use temperature program for monitoring heat generated on gpu and cpu..

I follow all your step..done twice right know still my fahmon show normal Gromacs score...help me..on task manger cpu utilization show NOT quite high..

Check my log, there are -smp7 parameter in it...

broo..can you help me...
i need recommendation on cpu, mobo and gpu for multi gpu rig...
lets say my budget below rm1000..
what used part combination that give higher ppd on smp and gpu...

if want really good performance for folding.
i will suggest:
smp client: core i7 870.
gpu client: 2x GTX460 or GTX470. brows.gif
but this will definitely need more than rm1000. sweat.gif

so with rm1000, you want a cpu, a motherboard, 2x graphic card?
do you need ram also? unsure.gif

aiiiyoooo...that rig really produce a lllooooottsss of ppd..hahaha.. drool.gif
i want cpu, mobo that support multi gpu at least each lane run at minimum 8x, 1 graphic card only, later i maybe add up the remaining slot..
ram,power supply,hard disk,casing...
do you think can get those USED item under rm1000... hmm.gif

hmm, not sure used items how much. unsure.gif
you can try see in garage sales, look for items below:
core i5 750
LGA1156 P55 chipset board with 2 pcie x16 slot.
GTS250.

the ram, hdd, psu, casing not included right? unsure.gif
if included then with rm1000 hard to get good performance stuff.
