I am still testing stabilty on a3 wu folding, and after I find the sweet spot (voltages vs heat ), then I am going to test out in ubuntu OS bigadv ( hopefully a2 wu is still around ) WB

Good luck with the A3's - what I found out was that if you complete them too fast, you get NO bonus. If you look up the formula there is a maximum bonus of 10x; I forget the calculations now, but if you finish faster than what it takes to get 10x bonus, you get no bonus. They are aware of the issue but last I saw it had not been fixed.

Kickass system, wb! I've got an SR-2 on preorder and hopefully will be joining the dual hex ranks soon. I'll probably go with X5650s, though, 'cuz those X5680s are too rich for my blood. I just hope EVGA gets a new bios soon that unlocks the uncore multi. Oh, and how do you like the Venemous X heatsinks?

@OP: Wow nice rig. Will make one monster bigadv folding rig. Good seeing the 4.4ghz on dual 5680s! What cooling solution is that on? Is that on Venemous-X ? @techmasterjoe: That sounds really interesting, this about modding VMWare to use 24 cores! Could you tell me/us something about that?

I've got an SR-2 on preorder and hopefully will be joining the dual hex ranks soon. I'll probably go with X5650s, though, 'cuz those X5680s are too rich for my blood. I just hope EVGA gets a new bios soon that unlocks the uncore multi. Oh, and how do you like the Venemous X heatsinks? Yes Parja. That is a Venemous X H/S. and it is about 80c on 4.4 GHz. But 1 thing on the X5650, getting 200 fsb is tricky on the SR2 with 2 cpu ( stable on bigadv. YMMV ) and it is better to get a higher multi cpu ( maybe x5660 ) just imo. so u can do 192 x 22 since i find the under 200fsb to be the most stable for bigadv. I am currently testing 191fsb with 2:10 ram and 20x uncore WB

I guess I'll keep an eye on prices and see if I can find the X5660 cheaper, though.
