Thrown my GPU's to do some Einstein again (not gonna be as much as the previous run I'm afraid). Was doing SETI on them for a bit but it's not getting much work and the points won't help us much in the league. Got my Xeons and my laptop on MindModeling. Hopefully that will help us a bit unless it would be better served on Universe?

No need to apologise :)
£20 a week is a lot for a single machine, does this include your f@h GCs? My leccy went down this year, I'm paying just over 10p/KW/h + a small daily charge.

yer the 2x780s were folding and spewing out loads of heat :) , ill turn it back on when i get my lottery`s winnings from tonights draw :)

Poem has always been a GPU project as far as I know. I don't know how a 780 will perform, AMD used to be king on poem & collatz, I think newer nvidia cards have closed the gap though. I'm sure we'll get round to CSG and we're on Universe now doing quite well :)

I'd say as a strategy hitting poem & collatz is not a good idea, they are very popular projects and would require a lot of effort and commitment to score well. We're doing well on milkway & primegrid but that's to do with it being someone's pet project rather than anything else, it's probably mostly the same for other teams doing well on GPU projects.

I thought id se what my 780 can do but I added primegrid and got no work, so I added moo wrapper and it gave some work, every WU jumped straight to 4.7 complete then just froze and wouldn't move from 4.7%

Tried them on my 290s at stock, and similar, went straight to 4.7% but then kept jumping several percent each time, think you just have to patient. For reference mine completed them in 15 mins for 6,144 credits each.

I've swapped out my trusted 2500k cpu and motherboard for the X79 + 4930k I originally had in Midas. Trying to get it to boot but having some issues with it because I used the ssd as a cache drive for the hdd. I don't really want to format it so may just stick in another ssd I have spare just to run bonic from.
That would give us 3 pc's running Universe plus I'm running it on my P34 Laptop. I'll try sort it out today after I finish making my chicken broth soup !
