I've been crunching since I got Movieman's email but mi i7 PSU died during a storm yesterday :( I hope that I get a new PSU by May 1st, I still have 4 cores crunching though :)
It's a pleasure to be able to help. Been at it for 2 days now whitout a hiccup!!!!! :frag: hopefully we can recruit more members, find a cure to one of this illness and get to that second position :shocked:.
Hlo
Hey guys! I would like to say thanks aswell to everyone that has joined! Once you catch the crunching bug there is no cure! haha
On a serious note, The thing I love about Disbributed computing is you SEE your impact, whether large or small. Compare that to a major charity where you donate x amount of dollars and thats that... Not that that doesn't go to use, but I like how directly involved DC is. Plus... I guess the community here is OK ... :rolleyes: haha. You'll find some of the most big hearted genuine people here, well execpt Dave :p:
Seriously though if there is anything you guys need feel free to ask, there is always someone willing to lend a hand! If I can do anything at all to help anyone get started let me know!
Cheers guys! :cheers: on ward and upward!
Hi All,
Got the email and decided to throw my Mac Pro in the mix. Hope you all don't mind a little help from the dark side ;)
This is the one and only time you will hear me say this so frame it!Quote:

Nice! :up:
I've 8 cores in 4 computers running at 100% right now. Pentium D :rolleyes:, e6750, e7500 and xeon as well :up:
I'm happy to be a part of the team! It's cool to know we can make a difference :yepp:
My office has certainly gotten warmer since my i7 has been 100% for 3 days :rofl:
251 new members this week. Total team members now: 1,485.
You can always add a couple more i7's some sand and a pool and have a tropical vacation:DQuote:

Should have that box together and at least roughly tuned well before the big push though. :up:
Didn't wanted to jump out from our team, so I decided to registrate another account at WCG, and joined XtremeSystems.
I'm getting a new PSU by tonight so I can add another 8 workers =)
Thanks guys! Appreciated more than I can say.:clap:
Just joined up, I've been a cruncher since the middle of 2009 but never been on a team, just a badge hunter on WCG. Most of my badges are blue now, so I've been looking for something extra to keep it interesting. I don't have anything wild or extreme just a lot of old stuff ranging from a Pentium2 to an HP Phenom X4, nothing is overclocked. Glad to join your efforts. My WCG ranking stats as of today were: Total run time #1074 - Points generated #1442 - Results returned #1570 I've been readiing the forum lately as I want to build a more state of the art cruncher, all these old P4HT's are getting way to expensive to run for the points they generate. Nice to be here and glad to add my stuff to the pile, maybe someday I'll get some pie!
Thanks for joining. Any and all help is appreciated. Many of the long-term members began crunching with just one rig and then added more later.
Sierra said it well.Quote:

Welcome and Thanks for helping!:up:
258 new members this week. We need all the help we can get to break 10 million points/day. We're getting very close.
As the graph shows, the new members have made a big difference and we appreciate your contributions.
Welcome to all the new folks! Glad to have new teammates. You folks are making quite a difference!

Sweet! I´m installing my new PSU and begin to crunch in a few minutes!
I have about a hundred new entries for "Days Until Overtaken". :( Oh well; more reason to hack WCG onto a corporate mainframe.Quote:

a 2.67ghz i7-620 laptop @ 67 degree
a 1.5 T5250 (dual core) laptop @ 75 degree
all running the 6.10.43 x64 version. it is right that its alot faster than the 6.2.xx thats on the wcg homepage.. because atleast the cpu benchmark numbers are almost double.
Points Generated (Rank) 154,262 (#122,670) since i joined.
and you guys are right, its quite addictive this "game" :) :)
