Hey ~Misfit~
Yeah...my Prescott 3.2GHz sucks...only churns out work units every 1
hour and 12 minutes on average...sigh :(


And heats the whole house at the same time! ;-)

BTW, that's damn fast, are you sure it's not returning corrupted data and
dropping your average time because of it?

Well it is winter after all :-)

Thermaltake VM3000A Case (lots of fans)
Thermaltake 480W P/Supply (lots of heat)
ASUS P4C800-E Delux M/B
Prescott HT 3.20GHz CPU
2 x 512GB Hynix DDR400 RAM (2.5-4-4-8-4)
RADEON 9600XT video card
RAID 0 for XP (2 x Seagate 7200RPM 8MB Cache IDE 40GB)
RAID 1 for Data (2 x Seagate 7200RPM 8MB Cache SATA 80GB)
Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-106D
oh and a floppy..need that to load the promise FastTrak 378 RAID array
driver when installing XP...

Not that I'm aware off, setispy log reports percentage done as
99.nn-100%....it's actually completing on average 20.09 w/u per day,
average time is 2 hrs and 24 minutes. As it's an HT CPU divide
by 2... ;-)

So I guess I'm telling porkies...but it is only one CPU...honest

Also just got a new notebook for work. Dell Latitude D600, that fair rocks for a 1.4GHz (Has a 1MB L2 cache as well), averages a wu every 2 hours 40 minutes.
