I'd say that it should be an entirely doable accomplishment. Or at least I hope so
We certainly have a remarkable upward momentum and 30m isn't too far way

30 million is too easy....We want a piece of IBM!!!

Great job today Team!

Once the contest is over, I fear we will drop a lot because not all members wil continue to crunch 12/7 or 24/7, some might drop their rates to only a few hours a week or not at all. If we "loose" the HCC GPU WUs we will drop even further.
We do this for science though, not for points so things should still be good even if we go down to position 20 (or whatever position we had before the GPU Wus).

Nothing to fear and yes we do it for the science. I can't speak for all but though it's pretty cool that we have a real shot at Top 10 in the world, I will continue to crunch with no real concern whether our Team is in the Top 10, Top 20, or Top 200

In it for the long haul

Can't say I'll crunch at this level forever but I'll leave the CCTV machine doing whatever it can. Is on 24/7 anyway, a few more watts/day won't hurt and since I'm upgrading to a more efficient CPU it might even out (currently running on a P4 2.4C and GF6200 AGP).

Many hands make light work

Every point/result is important- All contributions are appreciated

Well, no thirty million today, but we've still done amazingly well, and we'll hit it soon enough


We need to go and take a bite out of IBM

Hamnoy, Norway:

[Chevalr1c]

I am at my parents now, my main rig has not been crunching since saturday afternoon (yesterday), and my 2nd system outputs way less (mainly because the HD 4200, therefore no GPU WUs). The best chance on hitting 30m occurs in the period mo-fri because a lot of the team members are down a bit during weekends.

Certainly--weeekends have always been a bit low for us--it's also when people game

Up nearly one million points from yesterday--thirty million should be no challenge come weektime


Our position relative to our neighbors

I think that overtaking IBM, even if only for a day, would require a coordinated effort... and luck. It seems that 37M is a bad day for IBM, as far as I can tell.

At the point we are at right now we can do it with an extra 12 7970's running full output.... which is awfully good considering that we are a relatively small Team.

It is a commendable and truly awesome feat to get that close!

That really is remarkable--yes, it's still $4k in extra HW (at least)--but still. If we can get t_ski to bring his tri-HD7970 rig back online, we're making good progress already. And I may have to pick up another HD7770 or two after these current ones go out to winners
Or maybe another HD7850--this is an impressive piece of HW

Yeah, no doubt but since many users are on and off, having all of them coincide is the tricky part.

I'll try to setup 2 WUs again after clearing my queue and I think I'll have the 6450 running by mid-week. Octanux is adding its 4 threads too (no GPU WUs, AGP system )

[n3rdf1ght3r]

I'm hopping to pick up a Xeon for my file server because it's crunching on a pentium D. Hopefully I win a 7770 in the contest, and pick up another one with the red pocket money I got so I can get some more points

If it would support a C2D, I'd be happy to send one your way before too long. An E8400 would do at least twice what the PentD does

Still trying to figure out the bugs in Win8, but it's running 1 WU per card and 9 CPU WU's ATM. Too many people were knocking me out of the daily pie...

Ion is your source for S775 CPU's!

[[Ion]]

That's still a very solid setup, even w/ just one WU per card.

And I'm happy to purchase LGA775 CPUs and ship them to Team members at cost--they go to a good use and it's not much work for me

Still not as good as it could be. I'm trying to work on it when I get a few minutes, but life still is keeping me too busy

I guess I'll be hopping down a spot real soon then

Sucks that the roads aren't clear enough here to reach my remote rigs... they likely have about 70-80k points waiting to report on them atm

I made it out to the store but it took 4 wheel low to get out of my neighborhood and back and got stuck a few times

My neighbors came out to watch me back up down our unplowed street for about 500 feet- they think I'm a little nuts anyway

[[Ion]]

Well, here's our thirty million and more!


Impressive!

Wow 32 million - amazing work everyone!

Indeed--a most impressive improvement over yesterday

Wowee, that's some awesome #'s, great work!
Also, Norway is looking pretty amazing; I hope I get to travel there someday

Well would you look at that? Solidly over thirty million two days in a row!
This competition is doing great things for our output! :Rockout:



Maybe some day we can match IBM's output...
