Ran alot of S@H back in the days of 2001-2003, now I'm back again and have been crunching since end of october. Feels good to be back!

Pretty nice CPUs for ~$70 each, and nice to drop the heat on the Z400s by replacing the 130w W3550 quads in each with 95w 5675s. The Z600s are a bit more challenging, in that the tiny CPU coolers that will fit those cases are struggling with the increase from 80w to 95w. I'd have the second Z600 in work, except I ran into Win10 licensing issues moving from the 8000. Maybe I can now get the power consumption back under 2000 kwh/mo again? Naw ... But I'm liking the ~130k rac, assuming I can keep it up ... Cheers ID: 1834959 ·

Would you believe that I still haven't started a game on 1050Ti?! ;) Also, switched jobs...using here card as powerful as 1050Ti...that also got some of the way, for those 8h of 5d per week I'm spending there... Where to go next? WHat to do? Now that 4M results have been hit...let's make it to 5M & then to 10M... non-profit org. Play4Life in Zagreb, Croatia, EU ID: 1834970 ·

Gonna be running only GPU tasks on that machine due to the fact it only has 2 CPU cores and I suspect I need them to feed the 4 GPU tasks I plan to run on the RX 480 card. Happy crunching!

Doubt it will hold, but fun anyway. BoincStats tells me I should bust 50M total credit (counting Seti Beta) by late on 12/29. That will be cool ... ID: 1838230 ·

And I just got a hold of an A8-6600K CPU, so going to change the A6-5400K CPU in my AMD machine so I can utilize the full potential of my new RX 480 card. Only running 2 tasks on that card at the moment due to only 2 CPU cores, still doing great with a RAC of 11,327 should be interesting to see with 3 or 4 tasks.

But after installing a small GPU in my old i3-2100T machine this machine runs like hell. For vacation time a change my 2nd machine from cuda/win to openCL/win and now I got the gold badge. The gold badge starts at 18k RAC, I never thought co catch it that easy way. Secondary goal are the ranking in country and team.
