Are GPU's cut out to be all that they are. I checked one of my wingmen today and he has 7 machines but all have a GPU running. Now, He has 421 tasks in progress. And a turnaround of 7 days.

I currently have about 7 tasks in progress across 2 machines. But a backlog of about 30 awaiting credit. Tasks that my machine done in a few hours but i need to wait 7 days for my wingman.

My point is that if they do around 200 tasks over 7 days I reckon an i7 can probably do the same. Are they all they are cut out to be?

Hi,

Im looking for a fairly active team to join, predominantly working on SETI@home. I joined in 2009 and didn't do much. I restarted a week ago and have dedicated machines for the project. I have 2 machines running 24/7 and i have 7 machines arriving today with more crunching power.

Any takers?

Ricky

What about all the work that was pending recently. A lot of what i have has missed reporting deadlines. Will it be scrapped even though the upload server was off?

Thats not difficult, as im not here to better anyone. Im only here to contribute to the task. Ive took it on as a hobby and i buy all my own gear. Pay my own broadband, maintenance and lecky bill.

I owe nothing to anyone and take nothing from no one (excluding advice!)

Oh I see. This is how amature I am but it makes sense now. Obvuiously the same file is processed by several people?

On a lighter note i just aquired a batch of 45 HPDC5700's with 3.4Ghz Intel Pentium D's inside! Cant wait to get those up and running!

Guys,

I too have upload issues and can see the upload server is offline at the moment. What I have though is a lot of work which has been uploaded and still requiring validation and credit. Will this be a related issue?

Ricky
