Anyone getting ready for SC week? I'm ready to power up the farm again and I'm hoping to get both Arima beasts online this time :up:
Overall, we are currently in 4th behind team Sony and they are only putting out 16.5 million WCG/day. I'm hoping we can put them on notice and pass 'em up!

Well lets see if i can find some people who would like to join for a week or 2...
I'm getting a HD 7870 to maybe pick up some beta HCC GPU work.
Should work out so that I'm ready and just about perfect timing for SC Week.
Just imagine if HCC GPU goes into production before SC week :shocked: Could we hit 50m/day?
I don't see why not if the points ratio stays the same. I get 32 boinc points per WU completed on a 2600k @ 4.5ghz. During the beta, GPU WUs are taking 2.25 minutes to complete on a radeon 7850. That is 640 WUs in one day or 20.5k boinc point (143500WCG)if you get 32 boinc points per WU. Given the GPU power that is not being used, I think we could easily exceed 50 million a day (WCG points) on a non-SC week. Honestly, I'd be more worried about WCG running out of GPU WUs :D.Quote:

The only way I would get more points apart from this is getting a decent win on the lottery.
At various times in my life I have had occasion to think....... "should have tried harder in school"..... Paying for computer parts is one such time
I hear you there OC.
Do we know if there is a plan to get HCC gpu units out of beta in the near future?
Does anyone have the exact dates for SC Week?
I'm in for SC week, as late in November as possible would be best due to temps here.
I'll do my best to dig up something more to run but I can't guarantee anything. I don't have much hardware left that's worth anything other than what I run already.
Count me in for SC week.

I have a 920 CO that I only need to pick up some cheap RAM and a HSF (I can't stand going stock).
I have an extra i3-2100 if somebody has a mobo/ram home for it I will loan it out for SC week.
If my memory serves me correctly SC week is usually the first or second week of November, but how about November 23-30 so we might have a little extra time to gear up?Quote:

install cores};

To be honest it's more the electric bill that will stop me than the actual system cost.
