We're demoted

Voicon · 27 Oct 2014 at 15:35

We need cores quickly but I don't see where they are coming from

anthony566 · 27 Oct 2014 at 15:50

Surly the guys at OC UK have some systems they can put on this for a few days ?? what about the demo systems ??

Berserker · 27 Oct 2014 at 16:24

They are a business. They have overheads and insurance policies to worry about.

Dont think that figure will ever go down much, just increase, mine has been in the 500`s for a couple weeks now

Guess it all depends on who gets the WUs and how quickly they report them. My pending has grown to 113 now but in the past 12 hours my validated total is just over 28k. Hoping that has made an impact on holding them off.

WobblerJW · 27 Oct 2014 at 17:27

i just restarted using 8 cores

Aww we got passed, but keep fighting it ain't over till its over

Rizo-UK · 27 Oct 2014 at 18:15

Im ALL in @ 48 cores now.

No more, sorry peeps

MGP · 27 Oct 2014 at 18:15

Iffy tactic that may or may not deal with all those awaiting validation WUs is to set your queue now to say a couple of days (no point in a massive queue with only a few days to go). Download those WUs, then set the queue back to normal. Hopefully the stuff you get now will have been higher up the pecking order of those who aren't in a rush to crunch?

And I now have 715 WUs awaiting validation. Perhaps this tactic isn't going to work or perhaps others have already had this idea.

It's not like they are pulling away very quickly, it could easily change with just a few extra cores from somewhere...

andy_taximan · 27 Oct 2014 at 20:24

you can all blame me

.. my phone lost its charge and it stopped crunching all afternoon

Unfortunately the internet at work has been down for the past couple of day meaning none of my machines have uploaded results. At the moment it's not looking like the internet will be back up before the challenge finishes.

dam whitestar that's rubbish you have a lot of cpu power aswell

NeoRed · 27 Oct 2014 at 20:56

Well I have a 5960X coming Wednesday

and that's going to need testing so until I can get my system drained it will also be running POGS.

(welcome)

Streetlight · 27 Oct 2014 at 22:07

Can add a I5 2500k and amd4150 to it, however, am short a OS for them....

Mynight · 27 Oct 2014 at 22:07

Mark is moi. Registration fail

.

Got my 3820k and I'm just booting up 4 x dual core intels. Might have some more cores tomorrow at work if the servers not under too much load.

Edit: You're stuck with the 3820 and 1 dual core for now. Didnt realize the hard drives were 0d.
