If SCC had kept going until Friday....

Yeah that's a big ouch, very very close there.

They had talked about a "pause" in work so does that mean there will be more work for SCC at some point? Would be nice!

That's my understanding, that new work will be out soon.

What's the general consensus on which projects give the best points per hour? Looking at WCG's site, the reported points per hour of runtime is as follows (formatted into a table for readability), but I've seen our higher-than-average spec'd PCs do better on some projects than others.
Edit: Ugh. Table nightmare. Give me a second to fix it.
Edit 2: Screenshots for the win.

So while most yield similar results, stay away from FAAH!

But similar to that project...

Mainly wondering about FAAH2...

Been wondering if anyone is getting FAAH2 work? I still haven't received any, starting to think I'm doing something wrong here...

I don't have them selected, so I have no idea.

The answer is more complicated than the averages. Some projects do much better on one OS than another. I think it's FAAH2 that, IIRC, worked much better for me on W7 than Linux.

I seem to recall OET worked really well on Linux for you before, correct?

Oh that's nuts... awesomely nuts!

It's back to 73%!

 

[manofthem]

It's back to 73%!

For real? Just tried to check but WCG is updating. If so, I'll be adding it back in and I should be able to hit 5yr diamond! (currently at 3yrs and change)

Don't forget MCM

 

[manofthem]

Don't forget MCM

Yeah I had just added that back in but I'll take it out til I get the 5yr in SCC.

After that, I'll probably add back MCM and FAAH2

It's back to 73%!

Already to 74%. This is going to be a race to 5yrs

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Already to 74%

Off to rethread.

I've set up several android phones to crunch @ work. I must say, the A53 cores are tearing it up! I had 2 snapdragon 820's running, but they had a few issues. First, only running on the 2 performance cores, the PPD was way low, and despite being plugged into power all day, were discharging the battery faster than it could charge.

I have 3 phones (12 threads), all using A53's cores left running. 4x @ 1.8GHz, 4x @ 1.4GHz, & 4x @1.5GHz.

LG X Power: 4264 wcg ppd
LG Stylo 3: 3520 wcg ppd
Kyrocera Durafore Pro: 3530 wcg ppd

For comparison, the two snapdragon 820's were only able to put out 508 ppd (LG V20) & 800 ppd (LG G5)

 

[thebluebumblebee]

We have an amazing record today. Matt, I hope you're sitting down.

I've got a couple of them.

I got snake bit by Windows 10 upgrade and my own stupidity. Had to reinstall the OS and of course BOINC. Back running and crunching. Whew!

 

[manofthem]

you gotta be pretty close if not there. Hit 5yr diamond?

I'm only at 3yr 220 days I'm hoping i can hit the 5 before it ends, but the SCC is already at 77%...

PSU died in the w3550 rig. Replacement on order, so it'll be down for a few days.

Sorry to hear about that, always sucks to lose an integral piece of hardware. Glad to hear the replacement is on its way

Evga b stock is a great place to get quality hardware at a discount

3 and a half years, and I have everything working on SCC and HSTB. Fortunately, we're having a very cool spring. Actually had to turn the "heaters" back on.

I like that im not the only one clocking for the weather
