Countdown to HCC Completion Thread!

Are we there yet? I seem to get resend tasks only now..

I now have a _3.

I now have a _3.

That's normal (although not very common). That just means two people errored out/aborted the same WU, or someone sent back an errored unit and therefore is marked "inconclusive". But it does signal the end...

Do we have any idea where to put the GPUs once this is over? Thought I saw something on that, but overlooking it at the moment. I know GPUGrid is great for Nvidia, but what about ATI? There are a bunch, but what's the most worthy (read: humanitarian) project that runs on ATI?

(BTW, hello again! Been a while)

This is something that's been on my mind. I"m wavering between Folding @Home or POEM. I like more of the projects at POEM, but there doesn't appear to be an active XS team for them.

Otis, you need to fix your Signature. FYI - I have 10 AMD 7770 GPU's.

I've signed up with the XtremeSystems Einstein@Home team, and the Milkyway@Home team, and the Seti@Home team.

Asteroids isn't doing GPUs right now.

Huh, POEM is actually pretty good - any idea on how efficiently it runs on ATI?

And start a team! XS is very supportive of new start ups, especially with medical related projects.

My biggest problem with F@H is (last time I checked) it didn't use ATI efficiently. It was much better to use an NVIDIA GPU... have they fixed that?
(IMO BOINC is also preferable, but that's a minor issue)

Yeah, I know I gotta fix it... just don't remember the place and haven't cared enough to dig around for it. Asked SNURK, should be fixed shortly.

Actually, I'm going to start another thread on this specifically.

Thanks guys! (And nice to meet y'all two!)

XS actually has a team, but only one guy, Lionheart, has contributed in the past month. There are a couple of XS'ers on the team that have been active in WCG, including pirogue, one shot, snow crash, and vitchilo.

Supposedly AMD cards of 5000 series or above work on Folding@Home. I don't know how well AMD cards work vs. NVIDIA. There are claims that NVIDIA cards work better on the Folding projects.
