At last my new system is up and folding

**kodi** · 03-06-2008, 04:15 PM

It has been 4 months since I tried to Build this system, Gigabyte AU would have to be the worst in the world for RMA and Support.
But I am now folding with my new build (SMP Client)

Glad to hear you finally got it all together Brian. I'm looking forward to seeing how your Quad performs compared to my E8400.

Are you running the Windows SMP or VMware/Linux SMP setup?

**kodi** · 03-06-2008, 09:55 PM

Windows SMP

**mattlock** · 03-06-2008, 10:25 PM

I just recently switched to the Windows SMP after a clean install. It takes about 3hrs longer than the VMware/Linux SMP did to complete a 1760pt WU on my E8400, but it's less hassle so I'm staying with it for now.
