No news this week I'm afraid guys, something went wrong with the file download last week and only downloaded around 700 of 2400 records meaning there is a load of stuff in there this week which doesn't make much sense. Should be fine for next week.

Oh dear... sounds like a fair amount of green team cards are failing at the moment is it just unlucky or are they not able to withstand the workload?
Well they certainly modified the 6 series so they weren't as strong in GPGPU as the 5 and 4 series, their DP performance is dire in comparison, so perhaps they also cut back on the ability for them to run 24/7 @ 100%
That being said, no gaming card was ever really designed to be abused like we do to these cards especially if they are overclocked, add to that it doesn't take more than a couple of drops of water to fry a card and you can see we are running on the ragged edge of what these things were designed to do, lets face it nothing, not even benchmark tests push these cards like distributed computing does.
