They may rank pretty low on the geek chart but they can crunch pretty well just the same.
Here's a look at ESL's team stats.
http://statsnstones.tswb.org/TeamUse...8&teamid=18399
As you can see, there is no big individual cruncher. Just a lot of people contributing. Sometimes that can be effective.
LOL, their top contributor has a RAC of almost 6k Boinc... Amazing how many people they have got together right now:yepp:Quote:

Bah! The babysitter called me & said that my main rig has the bsod!!! this really sux!! I changed the psu over the weekend & all was good. I cant wait to get home & check it out.:(
Given the fact that even I have been in my own quorum I think that is highly likely as well :p:Quote:

Due to a bug, members who had results validated between the time we updated the server until now were granted credit twice.
Unfortunately, there is no way to identify which users were impacted. As a result, the extra credit is going to be left in place.
We apologize for this bug and we are installing corrected validators now.
Oh darn about the double credit. :D
Gotta love those bugs.:D

We have really moved up on the average / day :up: :clap:
Only have 38 quads running this week as I replace some of the QX6700s and Q6700s with Q6600s. But will be moving to 40 quads by end of next week.
DDTUNG:cool:
"Only" 38. :eek: ;)
And that's also... "only" the quads...:shocked:Quote:

I can buy nearly 2 Q6600s G0s for every QX6700 B3 ES or Q6700 G0 ES that I sell. The Q6600 G0s OC nicely and consume less power(=less heat) than the B3s.:)Quote:

I think we really need a recruitment campaign, if we had only doubled our number to about 500 returning every day, we would "quad" force us to the top! I will order a quad, whos with me?
I bought a Q6600 G0 today.:)Quote:

Guys, we have to do better than this. I know some of you are giving it everything you have. But only 255 of our BOINC users returned results today. We aren't going to catch anyone unless more people step up to the plate.
(End of speech)
I'm trying my best, but I agree that 255/720 isn't great. I have three computers crunching away for the team.=]
And thanks for your effort. By the way, I see this is your first post. Welcome.:) But I know you've been contributing for some time now.
When I compile the stats every day, it's a little disheartening to see zero's next to a lot of team member's names. I know there are those who have lost interest, others who are concerned about their power bills, etc. As I mentioned elsewhere, people don't have to run at full load to contribute. Even running at half load or part of the day will help. Also, I know this is strictly a volunteer effort. But I hope people will feel a sense of team pride. There's no reason why we should be getting beat by Easynews, even though they have a lot more members.
Power bills are the least of most people from this teams concerns as far as I can tell from reading around the forums. All of these people benching and spending tons of cash on there systems can't be hurting for cash much! lol
I'd like to be able to afford beefing up my computer. =p
Thanks for the welcome sierra!
I hope to have another machine crunching within a month. I'm just waiting for some of the newer boards to be released. I could put something together within a week. But I want a really fast board. My philosophy is, why not crunch in style.:D
My boss gave me a green light to build a new work machine.Quote:

It will more than likely be a C2D running close to or above 3ghz
Heh, I'm 17 with no job so I can't afford much atm. I'm really wanting to build a quad based system though. XD
Excellent.:up: You need to post more often so we can see that avatar a lot more.:DQuote:

I'll agree with that.Quote:

It's rough going that long between builds. I'm trying to develop that kind of self control. This last time i bought all the parts and let them "age" for several weeks before putting them together. That way it doesn't feel as if its been so long since your last fix.Quote:

Yes, I'm a little surprised at myself. I used to buy a new board every other week. lol. I have a 680i board that's been crunching non-stop for over a year. A lot of people said 680i boards were junk. My experience has been different. I think the 790i board may be a little cheaper than X48. Just a guess. The X48 boards are probably going to retail for $300 or more. I can get 2GB of DDR3 for around $200. I could buy six pairs of DDR2 for that much money.Quote:

Do you bother with cases anymore? or, just put them in cardboard boxes? or, just layout around on a table?
this would be a good question for DDT :yepp:
Personally I'd loved to see you with that SM board, 2-X5460 harpers and 4 gig of DDR2-800FBDimms.Quote:

I just picked up a MARS board and planning on getting a 790i for sure and a 780i maybe
I've heard great things about the mars:up: . Great voltage regulation and quad clocking. Almost as good a clocker as the DFI P45 board and way less finicky. Also, Sierra if I had to guess I would guess that x48 wont be much more than 790i because with 780 still being relatively new I expect nvidia to market 790 as to the same segment as the ultra and keep 780i around as a slightly cheaper option. Plus, X48 is just a binned X38 so it doesn't cost much more to manufacture but it remains to be seen how Intel translates that into price;) .Quote:

Welcome to the team Gamekiller. :welcome: Glad to have you.Quote:

I measured a few systems with my Kill-A-Watt and noted that it costs about $2/month less to run an older system than a quad, but the quad puts out 2-3 times the points per dollar !

as far as that goes, I can give you a list of the other stuff I need :up:
I would surf the FS threads, but it's so hard looking for what you specifically need in there.
So you already purchased the board? If you don't mind rebates, Newegg has that same board for $59.99 (after rebate). Link
no, I haven't purchased it yet, but I can't really count MIRs
While we can still use them, I have what I can spend now, and that's what I have to use
I'll probably just sit on it, and wait for the one or more of the components to go back down so I'm back in budget.
edit: OR, I could 'sell' him two of my ballistix sticks for what I paid after MIR. I'd have to look and see if that would work....
edit2: nope.....grrrr:mad::mad:
edit3: AH HA, since it doesn't look like I'm saving any money by stacking shipping right now from newegg, I'm going to let him use 2 of my ballistix sticks until the MIRs return, then buy him some ram :up: :banana: :banana:
Thanks for the welcome David. :D I'm not really new to being in the team, just new to the forums and talking to the teammates. =]Quote:
