The initial ppd of the new units don't show a huge drop, though they do plan a drop as it seems its too high.
So what happens to the 6903 and 6904 units now?
I think they have gone the way of the dodo bird
What kind of work will my dual hex core SR-2 with HT be running?
I was more refering to the large number of i7 970s (and similar) along with single 2011 systems that just got pushed to normal SMP that were doing -bigadv 12 WU.
I'm guessing I shall see something pop up in the DAB soon
Spent big chunk of cash for 970s and 980x and only fold smp .. and get only 30k+ PPD .. I would retire all single socket PCs ... waste too much time and money
total .. 4x 6-core (12-threads) PCs, 5x 4-core (8 threads) ... heat + utility bill -- ain't worth for regular smp..... Would think I only keep dual & quad sockets rigs.
We need lots of "normal" boxen to chew through the smp work units. The work still needs to be done.

My rig in sig is crunching a 8101 WU now, TPF of 31 minutes so it'll meet the deadline with only about 6 hours to spare. Are there any tougher (harder to meet deadline) bigadv WUs than this?
You are running the toughest of the current bigadv WU's but we do not know what the 6905 and 6906's are going to be like yet so as of today you are safe, but who knows about tomorrow.
I can live with that
I was doing some math, 12 threads at 4.7ghz = 16 threads at 3.5ghz = 24 threads at 2.35. Current multi-P processors are not over 3.5ghz but definitely are over 2.35 so the day they want to move to 24 threads minimum then no more bigadv for me.

Your maths is out, 24 threads for intel cpu's needs 2.66 or more, possibly 2.8 to give yourself a safety margin on uplod speed
I would need around 4Ghz on 16 threads to comfortably make 8101 deadlines on my 2P with my internet connection.
Simple solution...get faster internet!
Agreed. If one can afford a 8P setup, they can get off of 'America Online'
I agree, I have 16 threads at 3.2Ghz and I am no where near deadlines on 8101 on that machine. I would need around 4Ghz on 16 threads to comfortably make 8101 deadlines on my 2P with my internet connection.
Still it makes me smile that my 6 cores 12 threads can do 8101 with a couple hours to spare.

Doesn't make me smile that my 12c/24t misses 8101 deadlines by about 8 hours

His Hayes Smartmodem screams bloody murder every time it uploads a workunit. Not pretty to see or hear.
What? Which of your setups and at what speed? I can imagine 8 cores 16 threads being slower than my comp due to being Xeon and not overclockable but not 12 cores.
