GPUGrid Competition.

hanluc · 15 Nov 2012 at 14:07

I've entered Team OcUK into a GPUGrid competition over at Boinc stats

I know we don't usually do things like this but i thought it might be a bit of fun plus help with our current rankings for the Dc Vault competition.

It will run for a week from the 27th of Nov, competitors, stats and start time are here

Feel free to join in!

Count me in, will dedicated my 670s and 660 to the cause

Great stuff! I noticed you doing a bit over there now.

Worth mentioning as well if you have a half decent card, the most productive work units are the "ACEMD for long runs (8-12 hours on fastest GPU)" I have only these work units enabled in my GPUGrid site preferences.

Yeah with the issues borkley are having at the moment with seti WU's there were times when the system was just sitting there doing nothing so needed another project.

CPU runs PrimeGrid.

Erm......

I may participate for the week - my set-up would probably net around 3M ppd - as I've currently lost one of my 680's

Hopefully I should be able to dismantle my rig Saturday night and RMA it early next week.

That would be great if you could!

hanluc · 26 Nov 2012 at 11:52

Just a reminder for anyone wishing to participate, this starts tomorrow at 1.30pm.
I'll be firing my machines up later to time it so my WUs dump just after that time.

I may be a late starter in this - as you may have noticed I've been a little quiet over the past few days.......

Lets just say I had to purchase a replacement ASUS REIII Motherboard

Plus, I've not had chance to return the faulty GTX680

No worries LB, whatever you could manage would be appreciated

I got all excited when I saw your name, thought you were to say you'll be running in your new GPU farm or something

Biffa · 27 Nov 2012 at 16:04

Unfortunately our numbers are a bit thin on the ground, thank you Kolala for helping out.
JamesM are you not able to participate?

Biffa · 28 Nov 2012 at 18:39

Unfortunately all my nvidia cards are punching 8057's at the moment, everything else I have is AMD which GPUGrid doesn't support.

Biffa · 28 Nov 2012 at 18:49

OK I'll switch over for the competition!

4 x GTX470's on their way once they finish the units they are crunching.

hanluc · 28 Nov 2012 at 18:59

Thank you Mr Biffa!

loudbob · 30 Nov 2012 at 01:22
