Hi,
I received an email from someone at EVGA to join in this effort and after reading about it I decided to go ahead and help if I can. I have a few questions now that I'm up and running, some are configuration related and some are more general. I'll just unload them here and hope for the best
Configuration first...
I have a Dell Dimension 8400 with a P4 3.4 ghz With Hyper Threading. Should or Can I enable it as a "Multi-Core Cpu" or just leave it as single core?
Also, the Dell system has an new EVGA GEForce GT 610 Video Card with 3gb DDR2 memory. When I auto detected the GPU it came up as "Nvidia Fermi" with the GPU 3 box enabled. This seems to go against the setup instructions I've seen so I'm curious to see if I should leave it this way or not.
I think that havong heat control is a great idea, bt I don't understand the parameters I should put in for the rules. (remember I'm brandy new to this thing!) Do I input the value from the "points" column of the GPU's project? And what percent am I going to put to keep the GPU cool and not overheat? A little confusing I tell ya....
Do I have to do anything to get this information sent in when it's done or will The tracker send it in for me?
I have a question about running multiple instances of the tracker....
The above mentioned Dell is my secondary system, I have a newer and more powerful Gateway and want to know if I can run this on both computers at the same time, with my username and passkey and all. I can help the EVGA Team a lot more if I can run on both systems and even more if I can run multiple trackers with different projects on each system. During the day my computers sit idle, if I can run 3 or 4 trackers on each system all day it would be a decent effort and no problem for me to do. If someone could get back to me and let me know I'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance for the assistance, I hope my doing this is going to help out somehow....
