[TennesseeTony]

A dominating run by finishers 1 and 2. Kudos to them. Well done all.

 

[Ken g6]

Voting success at last! The project is NFS.

 

[TennesseeTony]

Shhhh! You're supposed to say, "Ah crap, and we've been bunkering Geriatric-sim all week...."

Everything that I have, what little it is, is working full time on NFS. Gonna need a major push to catch XS and TSBT in the next 25 hours.

I just added an old Dell OptiPlex with a Haswell i5 I had kind of forgotten about. Looking around my house for more hardware.. uhh.. I might be a PC parts hoarder . Any chance an Athlon XP1600+ will help? /s

 

[Icecold]

If anybody has spare hardware now is the time.

 

[VietOZ]

I had my laptop going, fired up a Q6600 machine too. Everything I had


xii5ku probably still

With that said, 5+ million points on the first day was a hell of a drop @VietOZ , and I have no issues with that Even bunkering right up against the task deadline that would take a ton of hardware.

[Icecold]

My narrative stops there because there's nobody to step in while the emperor fries Luke "help us _____ (crunching@evga? hardforum? L'Alliance Francophone? Marinph's team?) - You're our only hope?



edit - maybe it's just Stefan

[SystemVipers]

killer, nice run.

 

[VietOZ]

Grats to TaaT! Amazing finish again!
I learned one thing, 3990X sux on NFS

Awesome finish @StefanR5R ... couldn't keep up with you. Maybe next time

 

[biodoc]

Just woke up and Wow! Great job @StefanR5R and TeAm.

Kudos to @Kiska for the munin stats.

 

[Icecold]

Wow, Impressive run by @StefanR5R, other members of our TeAm and the other teams after I went to bed. I'm saving my emperor frying us meme for the next GPU sprint, though, where @VietOZ and others have more fire power

 

[StefanR5R]

Big thanks to all the friendly teams out there who helped us so much this time...



...by voting for the project for which we were preparing for. :-)

How many spinning hamster wheels does it take to power that craziness?

 

[StefanR5R]

I'm not sure when FreeDC updated. I am still running NFS at 100 %, so the figure includes a little more than what went into the sprint (but not much more).

The two 230V × 16A circuits in my living room are enough to power all this in principle. But I currently have another cable crossing the corridor into the room, posing a tripping hazard. That's left from when I also ran GPUs. I have yet to allow for the minutes of downtime necessary to replug the computers.

Also, several of the wall outlets are getting very warm. Their contacts were certainly corroded already before I moved into this place; I need to take care of that eventually.

Besides, the question is not only for how many hamster wheels to spin, but also for how many days to spin them. ;-)

Ah, and it's a good thing for the outcome of this sprint that I recently doubled up the RAM of my older computers, after long hesitation to spend more money on these already somewhat outdated computers.

Also, several of the wall outlets are getting very warm

That's the first thing i did when i moved into my house.
Just about all the wall outlets had no grounds, just 2 prongs.

 

[pututu]

Congratz TAAT!
