    Adding 2nd 7970 Wed. Hope to add a 3rd next week. Have the dates been set? It's always been Nov. 1st-7th in the past.

    On a side note, where the bleep are the tock chips??? I've been dreaming of an 8 core since before Ivy. Is trn on hiatus or just building a gpu farm? Sorry. I have some catching up to do.

    I also have been dreaming of 8 core for awhile. Ivy was major dissapointment for me.

    If anyone has any video cards that are capable of crunching but aren't I'd be open to borrowing them for the SC week and returning them afterwards. I can't afford new H/W right now.

    Added a 7950, a 7850 and got my existing 7850 and GTX670 crunching plus bringing my entire farm back online.

    I will keep it all running as long as I can.

    quick update on hardware available to loan out to a good home: I have an i3-3220 cpu and an i3-2100 cpu I would gladly send to someone who could run it for the week! Also possibly a GTX 650 that won't have a home. Let me know if you would like to run any of them for the week and I can send them out ASAP. I also have 1 stick of 8GB DDR3 if that would help anybody get a system running for the week.

    I have a free PCI-e slot on my cruncher.

    My dual optee has two free PCI-e slot's but I would need more PSU for it.

    Is that all? Sure you don't want to just have AMD send you last months card production?

    Hello Dave
    I so wish i could get my hands on a few more 7970's.
    I have 2 running right now with 2 more on the way to me . Just hoping i can pinch 1 more of a buddy of mine
    I haven't found much information about the W series firepro cards , id love to see what they can do as far as DP compute is concerned . Should be pretty similar to the 79xx series cards hopefully. Fingers crossed !
    Now i just need to get off my lazy a** and get these rigs ready in time. That is the tough part
    cheers and kind regards !

    Just thought I'd post this concern of mine here...

    I have a couple people that would like to contribute for SCW, but don't want to go about setting up an account for themselves and setting up for all GPU. In other words, it is going to easier for me just to install BOINC and then use my weak key and app_info file to get them up running for SCW on my account.

    So with that said, it may be wise to make sure you have GPU work set to run for your "default" account so when you add or people jump on your account, they can run GPU work right away and you won't have to worry about managing device profiles for new devices being added.

    Another thought - has anyone warned the techs at WCG that this is coming up? It might be nice to let them know rather than just having their feeders suddenly run dry and validators choked to death.

    Remember to get at least 1 WU working before you copy in the app_info.
