xeon x5670

This is a 6 core processor with 12 threads. I thought it would run 12 work units at a time. I am only getting 6 cores to run in total. Am I thinking incorrectly, or maybe someone has an idea on how to run the full 12 threads? crying

Re: xeon x5670

Do Ctrl+Shft+E in BOINC Manager after a system restart and copy/paste the whole log for the connoisseurs to look over.

Re: xeon x5670

Check that you have hyperthreading enabled in your bios

Re: xeon x5670

IF you are going to restart, check the BIOS to verify that hyperthreading is turned on

Re: xeon x5670

I have a dual X5670 cruncher thats been working for a couple years since building it. Was video editing on it until I built a 4930K system. Now its just a cruncher and movie ripper. 48GB of ram in it.

Re: xeon x5670

That is why it took me a few years before I joined Boinc projects; I was doing video editing and needed the ram and CPU for myself. After I changed my line of work I was sad I wasn't using my equipment to its potential and later remembered hearing about Boinc and finally joined.

How big of a computer is it? I still rip movies on my dually (still faster than my 4930) so pause crunching from time to time.
