there was a pin you could isolate or snap off on the pentium northwood B and change its multiplier (or fsb?). might not of been the B model either come to think about it. a,b,c model northwoods all used a different fsb, that pin said which one to use. or something like that lol
only remember cuz i tried it and it didnt work. as i broke my pin it was a major pita to get it to make contact again. i use a piece of copper wire sticking out of the socket as i recall.
and those AMD chips where you could strap multiplier pins with a veeeery carefully placed pencil mark...jesus man, those were the days edit/ falling off the wagon now...god damn you guys easiest overclocks (well aside from the bios stuff from the pentium II on up) was the jumpers on the 486. just pick 25,33 or 40, then select the multiplier via jumper and see if it booted. cant remember if my 386 could do that. before that there was the clock crystal replacement on the IBM AT. never tried it on mine though. dont remember what the cpus were that you just added more L2 cache via stuffing chips in empty sockets on the mobo. 386 im guessing. still have some of those cpus/motherboards and all the stuff needed to boot them. part of my Piles of Old Crap Collection.

The evening wall report Hey everyone As consolidation activities continue we approach one of those interesting areas where rumors and fud interact with the trend and fundamentals. Have to pay attention over the next week or so as news of interest develops with the ongoing bitfinex scandal, the Kleiman Case and the 'mysterious' countdown to find Satoshi. #dyor The latest is a new HH(higher high) on Bitstamp at $5,846.13 as a strong buying trend continues to establish itself as we begin the month of May. #btd 45m 1h 4h #stronghands'19

I havn't looked at the stats in years and just checked and DAMN your right you guys have been decimated. Yeah they screwed the points system right up with GPU's, N00bs would catch up in a few months with a new gpu, it was a real joke. But I folded from 2000-2006 or so Anon with 6 rigs before joining a team. I've had alot of family die from cancer and thats all I could really do about it.
I remember when EVGA was bribing and I guess now there are 2 F@H coins for it?
I was just looking at the stats too, making me pretty sad seeing all the old user names, we were a thing. I know it is really about the science, but guys had tens of thousands of dollars tied up in those big AMD 4Ps and Stanford fucked them just as other opportunities to do science were coming on the scene. Then 7im started deleting people's posts and threads on the F@H forum. Some pretty serious personal farms found new places to contribute and we just never coalesced around a single project the way we had around F@H. I should dig out the T shirt and cry a little. Just found this. https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?nomobile=1&f=98&t=30310

Back when Bitcoin started I was a heavy F@H contributor and was on OCN working to World domination (Which we accomplished!)
pffft team33 FTW BTW, open Zika sprints on WCG right now, got some fans running Lol. Team Picard for seti, f@h, g@h and a few others. When did that team start? Born out if NinjaMicros, which produced GFDs (gold finger devices) which plugged into the Athlon II(?) processor to change the multiplier. Would have been around 1999. W0w, I forgot all about slot A multiplier adapters. At the time I think I was doing the 370/slot1 for builds and BH6 (Malaysian(chip) 300 to 450 OC)thing. Talk abut bang for your buck, that might have been the best off all time, 939 comes close though. so
I'm not sure how to say this...
I am glad I am already drunk right now

From a few threads I read, Karma. I never interacted myself. I see how you guys felt about him. https://hardforum.com/threads/7im.1305957/Weird how when someone dies people don't want to speak bad about them. If they were dicks when alive I say the world is better off. Fuck em. I think mine is LONG gone. Had a Alpha heatsink strapped to that thing too (modded on my uni workshop) and even toyed with a Peltier element . Oh and put lights on the case. Back in 1999. Now it's all so cliche... Can't even buy a mobo without lights on board :/ I don't even remember peltier elements being available back that far! I never got around to playing with them, IIRC they were pretty inefficient compared to water. How did your pan out?

Some pretty serious personal farms found new places to contribute and we just never coalesced around a single project the way we had around F@H. I should dig out the T shirt and cry a little. yeah i stopped around when a lot of fighting (some about a possible amd handicap) and snobbery came about. then the point system fiasco. mt last folding only rig had a couple gtx285s and a overclocked q9550(?) cant remember exact model. was a lot of fun. till it wasnt. man remember the chimp challenges? heh my original contribution to science was seti@home on a 386 or 486. so long ago i cant remember what machine really. I remember getting 6ppd on a k5@166 chip but thats the oldest cpu I remember folding on. GFDs (gold finger devices) which plugged into the Athlon II(?) processor to change the multiplier.
fuck me there's a blast from the past...wow that would be an overclocking artifact I would like to have there was a pin you could isolate or snap off on the pentium northwood B and change its multiplier (or fsb?). might not of been the B model either come to think about it. a,b,c model northwoods all used a different fsb, that pin said which one to use. or something like that lol only remember cuz i tried it and it didnt work. as i broke my pin it was a major pita to get it to make contact again. i use a piece of copper wire sticking out of the socket as i recall. Nice hack, I did the same by cutting the end of a needle off, thats one nice thing about sockets. I was all AMD during P4, That was the worst Intel flop ever, I went from Dual PIII (Rambus baby!) to Socket 462.

I should maybe do this in PM, but at the moment I don't care.
Hueristic, thank you for working through this with me. It is pretty obvious right now that I have been suppressing how much the end of that scene hurt. I used to hang out on IRC with those guys on the regular...
I have said before, and I still believe, one of the things that really gives me hope is that quite a few of the early Bitcoin folks are OG folders, fundamentally altruistic individuals.
This world could do with an elite class with something other than their own quarterly gains in view.
