Folding@Home bigadv EOL 2nd Anniversary Challenge on 12:00 UTC January 23rd: The race is over.

[Skillz]

I should have ramped up earlier.

I'm glad you didn't. I only lost ~2.5 - 3 days worth, although some of my miners aren't working on ETH right now. Not sure why. Put them on ETC for the time being until hopefully the problem (which I hope isn't on my end) fixes itself soon. I tried redownloading the miners and rebooting; so I'm hoping its something going on with the mining pool and not my cards/systems.

Only thing I had left to give was some CPU cycles and a few 280X GPUs that are running Milkyway@home. Doubt they'd make much of a difference though especially considering one of them is running on an x1 riser slot.

@biodoc, thanks for organizing this race, and for tracking all the user stats twice a day!

 

[Assimilator1]

Yea thanks for another race with stats biodoc

My HD 7870XT (which I think the 280X would be ~25% faster) does 160-200k ppd.[edit] In F@H

 

[Icecold]

Firepro S9150's were doing ~400k PPD each in an x1 slot with risers.

Edit -400k PPD in Folding@home. In MW they do about 750k PPD

Yeah Milkyway is not one of the projects that uses much PCIX bandwidth.

I've been mostly CPU cycles up until that ramp. Look at my WU count.

I've never mined before. Sounds interesting by not my thing.

Thanks @biodoc for all the stats- great information and kept the suspense going

A great race, exciting and close to the very end... Wow! Already awaiting the next F@H race

Thanks @Assimilator1 for dragging me into this

 

[Assimilator1]

Glad you joined us .

Now it's time for me to try to beat you back in Rosetta!
Btw, which other projects do you run?

 

[voodoo5_6k]

Thanks again Yeah, no chance for me catching you there... Unless someday I bring myself to upgrade my rig, that is

Right now it's CPU=Rosetta and GPU=F@H. I have to check out the link in your signature and read through that.

 

[Assimilator1]

Well, as the weather warms up, I'll be shutting off the 2nd rig more until it's off altogether, that'll be your chance then!

 

[voodoo5_6k]

I'll try my best to stay within reach, waiting for my chance

(You'll have to imagine the "Jaws" theme playing in the background )
