    Glad to hear your staying!

    Now I have to mention the WCG rule on gaming;
    It's rule #1729571 subsection A,paragraph C:
    And I quote:
    "In so far as we do recognise the need of our members to occasionally blow off steam by Gaming, we have set aside the fifth Friday of each February during the hours of 3am-5am for said usage."

    I mean we do want to be fair to the gamers!

    At least you go about gaming the right way... put together a second crunching rig first.


    24 hour prime stable? Please, I'm 24/7/365 WCG stable!

    So you can do Furmark, Can you Grid???

    Yea, find that nice stable "sweetspot"when it's just stable and then back off 200mhz to know it will hold up long term..

    Hey, right click the tray icom for BOINC and hit snooze.
    We aren't that crazed that we demand 24/7-365.25 running of the app.
    It's nice if you do but we don't demand it!

    Yeah, what Dave said.







    That .25 is purely optional.

    Unless you've set CPU affinity for either crunching or folding, one is going to block the other from doing much of anything. (that's assuming you're using CPU clients for both)

    I don't think I've used my desktop in the past 3 weeks Even when I got my 980x it was straight to folding till it died (never benchmark or gamed on it) Bought a GTX480 for gpugrid and haven't used it to play one game yet I wonder if I can just directly buy points from WCG

    I'll let yopu in on a little secret:
    If you right click the BOINC tray icon and hit "snooze" and forget to put it back to work, after one hour it turns itself back on..
    You should have kept driving.

    nice job this week guys, i never thought we would have even broken 12M, so to see almost 18M was a shocker for me.

    also, for what it's worth, i believe the sc2 guys will be hanging around. i never said anything about a week long stipulation
