We'll see..:devil:
( forget's to mention the OTHER machines that will be there)

i7-860 going online as soon as we make it home from the Dr. office. Wife and I are thinking its about time to produce offspring. So we're making the rounds getting all our bits'n'bobs checked.
And don't worry, the kid will be raised as a cruncher:yepp:
And so excited as the 980x gets here Monday.
Does anyone know how to determine the total of a team's teraflops output? I'm planning on track our teams' performance for the week but don't know how to calculate that part.
A TFLOP is one trillion floating points operations a second. I think an i7-980X does about 80 gigaFLOPS. So 13 of them would do around one TFLOP.
The best way to measure gigaFLOPS is with the Linpack benchmark.

There's a list of the Top-500 supercomputers. The slowest one does 20 TFLOPS. The fastest one can do 1,759 TFLOPS or 1.759 quadrillion floating point operations per second.

FYI, the new WCG day starts in less than 30 minutes, so rev up those engines.:D
I've found some discussion on the matter on the WCG forums ... but there seems to be some crazy math and some "interesting" assumptions made.
May 1st, WCG time, has arrived. Now get to work.:D
Hate to tell you this but ... it's in another hour.
I'd rather you hit the ground running though ;)
Oh crap, forgot about daylight savings time.
Just so you know, our main purpose is not trying to beat you in your challenge. As I mentioned in another thread, that's just a side-show. But we welcome any and all competition.
Oh I know. The whole point of the challenge is to give you guys a little more drive and hopefully get your to really out-do yourselves. Plus it's all in good fun and gets my team to pull together for something as well. :up:
Some or most of you may not want to hear this, but hear me out. This is my theory as to why we are more successful:
It's because we want to be apart of something bigger than just us. We want to make a difference in the world. A world where we are just individuals. But here, doing good for humanity, we are apart of something huge and we want to show the rest of the world that we aren't just individuals, that we are a team!
Plus, we all just want a piece of pie in the end!!! :rofl:
i have my 2.75GHz Core2Quad crunching
my Dell 2400 P4 crunching
another P4 HT @3GHz crunching
and soon my friend AMD crunching
and another P4 HT crunching hopefully
just joined up w/ the Q9300
is there a place where i can see the jump of WCG performance for XS? Sortof of like extreme overclocking folding at home stats pages w/ graphs and all
Assuming you are already in the team, go to this page: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/team/viewMyTeam.do
Time to take this show on the road my friends..
Zero hour is here! :up:
looks like XS is doing 1.9 Million credits a day...is that a normal amount?
