I had thought about that too when his numbers went down. He dropped off line the week before the floods started so I hope he has been affected from something else not so catastrophic.Quote:

A few months should do it :DQuote:

Thanks Rise! :up: Probably my last piece for a while. I have to cut power consumption by 25 KWH per day till the end of the month so I'll only be running 3 rigs. @#$&*# CA, :( On the plus side I'll be building a 3rd SB over the weekend. Hopefully it will draw less than 100W as reported in the other thread. :cool:Quote:

I'm kinda glad I don't get pie........Those pies mess my eyes up
Hey sam, not a product of the 60's are you? :D I sort of expect them to be titled "Far out"
Woohoo!
Popped my cherry :D
LOL... the pies are fine by themselves. Combine them with the font and I'm thinking: "Psychedelic man!!!" :rofl::rofl::rofl:Quote:

Damn whats it take to get a little slice 12-980x? :rofl:
Naw! It only takes 1-980x @ 4.147, 1-I7 920@ 3.8, 1 I-7 950 @ 4+, 1 AMD X6 stock, 1 Q9550 @ 4+, 2 X SB2600K @ 4.609 and 4.532 respectively. But that was last week. :shrug: :rofl::rofl::rofl:Quote:

Just wondering. What happened to ddtung who was a major contributor and nearly disappeared.:confused:
I think his working environment became less hospitable towards crunching :shrug:Quote:

Looks like Biker has joined the tour-de-force :up:
If we look at the pie, I wonder what is the pie share of amateur members (crunching at home) compared to professional ones (crunching at the office, company servers, desktops etc.)
For what I know Hypernova and trn-XS are in the amateur category, and if only them, then the ratio would be:
Amateur: 41.3%
Pro's : 58.7%
But others may be amateur which would improve the ratio.:)
As far as I'm aware, XS is pretty much ALL amateur crunchers.
And most of the top producing amateur crunchers are members here or frequent here. Hypernova is the top amateur, myself and biker are next, everyone else in the top 25 daily output is crunching with company/university computers.

Small bump. Hopefully it will come up a little more. :) A bigger slice of pie is always relished. :p: More entries in PV jail. :(Quote:

You cleared yesterday what I clear a WEEK.
Someone dumped a load of hexes on me... what's a cruncher to do? :DQuote:
Looks like Biker has joined the tour-de-force :up:
Also my power bill is going up 20% in a month's time so I will have to scale back
as there is *no way* i can afford or justify nearly £200 a month just running crunchers...
If it is getting to the point that I cannot afford to turn on the hot water for a shower because of these 11 rigs I am running then I guess it is time to urgently get professional help :rofl:
It's all MM's fault. :rolleyes: I was content with forced semi-retirement till he contacted me Christmas Eve day. He sang the praises of the new Sandy Bridge chips and now I have 4 of them. :eek:Quote:

Simply not feasible due to lack of space.
Right, I meant the top 25 overall for the WCG though :p:Quote:

It is really a hard fight to keep the crown. trn-XS is a very challenging competitor. :D
nonsense :p: I only have 16 hexa's and a 2 quads running, and at an average lower clocks than you. My farm does seem to be a bit more problem free and I also never shut anything down; even if I'm away from home for a month or more; slow and steady wins the race :yepp:Quote:

Still if I look at the daily results we are very near. This means that you are more efficient. Maybe you run Linux which is faster, I am on W7. Maybe you run one project only like HCC with short cycles and very fast validation time. I have 17 Hexas dedicated running 24/7. Then I have 1 Hexa running 24/7 but not exclusive, and 3 quads but which run intermittently.Quote:

Oh, and sorry for my lack of output these past days and weeks, most of my Duallies have been encoding Bluray Movies to h264, which takes a while even on an SR-2 (about 25-35 FPS depending on quality settings; takes probably a day on a "normal" system :rofl: )
You have "normal" systems? :eek:
Never said I did :rofl:Quote:

Either we're encountering the forum limit or Sparky did something wrong :rofl:
Says to me your post is on page 114... thread shows 115, which I can't access either :shrug:
man... PIE Looks delicious... Keeps getting harder and harder to get some! I am hoping with the servers that I fire up here in the next few days I'll have my first ever piece... we'll see ;)
Pie around here is like "tail" in the Supermodel house. No way, no how is this little black duck ever gonna get any :shakes:
Hell, I'll be happy with some crumbs!:rofl:
gives a whole new meaning to "ass pie" I suppose ;)
I hear that... I dunno if I can do it... but we'll see... I am going to give it my best...Quote:

Does that mean I get some tail? :rofl:
psst... everyone slow down just a little for the next few days :D
I missed out on pie yesterday :(
I had 2 rigs run out of w/u's and were idle for a day before I found them:upset:
I always download 5 days worth of work and update it every couple days but its been crazy around here and I let it go 3 days. I guess I need to start d/l 8 days of work just to cover when I get too busy, sorry guys:shrug:
well... so much for my attempt at some pie... I just blew a breaker testing these servers... and I had 3 core 2 duo's and 7 p4 2.8 ht's in the back running WCG as well... But When the breaker blew the wife flipped out and said I need to load test one at a time then shut it off... I put up a fight but those married know how that usually works for the husband :(
All you pie munchers enjoy it, I'll be there some day ;)
Perhaps running some on a different circuit?
Also, it may be better to ask for forgiveness than permission. ;)
If you are in for points check WCG HFCC forum. There is about 2+ months to go on the project and it has developed a generous streak. I was crunching HFCC exclusive for about a week before and yesterday I got double points. It isn't a PV Jail thing either.
It seems that watercooling won against air cooling at least for now. ;)
Well, I'm led to believe it's that much quieter at least.
Water cooling is always greater than air :p: which are both beat by power outages :confused:Quote:

Woo :)
Sadly this is only due to half of trn's farm being offline :eek:
Wow, congrats! #1 in the team for a day is quite the accomplishment, regardless. :clap:Quote:
