Another excellent week! Our PPD and amount crunched has increased a lot, and we've managed to see off Ukraine's attempt at stomping us, although ATI did slip through.

What more can I say accept keep up the good work people, welcome to the new guys, and everyone keep an eye on your rear view mirror for rjkoneill coming through! :p

 
Do I not get a mention for my 13 million tiffy in the Milestone Tiffys section then? :p

Well done team 10. Nice increase in output :cool:

Things going fairly well this week. Everything been working well until a few hours ago when my bedroom rig decided it had an unstable overclock - after running 24/7 with the same OC for about 6 months :rolleyes: Running at stock at the moment - will have a fiddle this afternoon. As per my other thread, I've added another GTX295 this very day. Seems to be working well so far. Will get it watercooled and a proper overclock on it when I get back from work next month.

Thanks, as always, for the news Dekez and a warm Foldy type welcome to the new team members :)

FOLD ON TEAM 10 :D

Thanks dekez, news always appreciated

Nice to there is someone who is going to challenge Mr Biffa for the top spot - I think things may get interesting

I can't challenge these guys but I have just started using the bigadv units, they seem to be kinder to my CPU as temperatures are slightly lower than normal (or is that a change in the weather?). Out of interest how many people get the bigadv's failing?

noooo

533 points behind biffa :(

my failed big adv from this morning has destroyed my average
it was due to drop at 9pm which would hvae boosted the average
80k down the drain

some really good results from bulldog too!
thanks for the news dekez
 
Been a sweet week for us, my rig was out of action for 2 and a half days due to bigadv fail and my monterous leak on Sunday but we have picked it up. Rjk not managed to snaffle 1st place producer this week :p

Ah well always next week/month/year hey man :D

Nice to see bulldog147 getting involved he's earned a few tiffy's aswell.

We're getting team 10 back on track espcially now we are testing systems and bundles with folding aswell, we are getting a good lot of credit going towards Team 10. Hopefully we will be seeing some stomping action soon!

I'm afraid not, it seems Kakao doesn't count your 13mil as a "milestone"! :p
My 6mil last week didn't show up either. I'm curious what they consider a milestone after 10mil though - 20mil/50mil or 100mil?!:eek:
 
Cheers for the news as usual :D

A BIG warm welcome to the new members :D

With Linux it was hell on earth. About 40% failed and any shutdown killed the unit. So far I have only killed 1 windows bigadv unit from shutting the client down and no failures.

Must be pushing the machine too far. I know the X5450's I'm running will do 4Ghz in a Skulltrail board, but since I'm using an OEM HP XW8600 I'm limited to setfsb overclocking. I can only get 715Mhz stable out of the RAM before it begins to fail, and thanks to it being a purpose workstation with ECC, when errors occur it reboots the machine and identifies the failing device and module in the BIOS.
 
lol I see war between RJK and Nath.

Great week for production and we should be seeing the return of some folders that are currently out due to heat etc and we're not far from the colder months
 
I'm heading off to work today (for those of you who don't know, I work on an oil rig in Egypt so will be away for a month). My flatmate is on holiday until the weekend so I'm going to have to switch everything "not on" until she gets back. I'll get her to switch the gaming rig and the media rig back on but the photo rig will remain "not on" until I get back.

All of the above means I will have zero output for a week and then will be on reduced output for a little over 3 weeks after that (reduced output being approximately 35-40k ppd).
