After a slow start you are doing pretty good. One more day and you have turned in the required 50.000 points :rockout: but that doesn't mean that you have to stop.
 
Its a random draw for the prize. So Fits will have the same chance as any contest entry that does the required work.:)
 
Week 1 Progress

OK, so it's not friday anymore, but I was distracted this morning.

I don't know how you'd work it into the contest, but I think that beer should be involved in some way.

And so back to business.. :cool:

So Fitseries3, Black Panther, Radical_Edward and BowHunt3r are all over halfway through in the first week! Good work!:rockout:

Garyinhere, TechPowerDown, Soylent Joe and Exeodus are all doing above the proportional progress score, so keep it up and you'll all qualify within the contest time frame! Crunch on! :rockout:

mdbrotha03, t77snapshot and parelem may be late comers but have shown the potential to qualify so crunch hard because your scores are not too far off :rockout:

The ones that I haven't mention yet are currently struggling to keep up the pace :o. A few of you may benefit from following this guide so that your work gets sent instantly and you get points for it: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=106370 As some of you guys are also late comers, don't be discouraged, it takes a few days for your true numbers to come through. :pimp:

Just remember, you have the team thread if you need help (or you can PM me) http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=85784

.................................................

And so with that first week concluded I though I'd give my personal thanks to:
- (FIH) the don: for giving me the idea
- Chicken Patty: for getting this thing going again, and donating the prize PSU
- Bogmali: for donating the GT240 + 500GB HDD to the prize
- Buck Nasty + Paulieg: for helping me get this ready
- Btarunr: for helping promote this contest with front page article
- Greasemoneky: for donation to prize that I've yet to put on OP :o

There are a lot more I would like to thank, and that shows how good the individuals in this family Team are. So here's to everyone in the team :respect: :toast:

Now I must go nurse a sudden headache :rolleyes::laugh:

This is good stuff, i'll help ed get just a few more points through the weekend then I depart to help the T77 turbo...

wait what?

Anyhow, he asked right after ed so he's next on my list.
 
Once I have the points needed for the contest I'd be more than willing to help others reach the 50,000 mark. :D
 
an addition to my lineup.... a mysteriously highly OCed machine thats been running for several hours now 100% load at decent temps :D

cant give you any details, but its dual cpu.

^ is that air? Those are great temps for that OC, same temps I get on my i7 860 @ 3.5 on air :eek:
 
Because it's so hard to tell what rig it is by that screenie...

Fitseries3, I hate you and your damn money..... :rolleyes:



Now send me your hardware. ;)

Heh, right. Well then I hate your connections. ;)
 
i will take one of your free 6 cores
 
I'll set mine up tomorrow. Too tired atm.

Good work on the contest, and thanks to everyone that donated parts / helped out.

Fits, let me guess... is it the rig in you system specs, or that other 24thread rig you showed? lol

wow that is amazing :D

go nurse that head of yours now lol :roll:
 
Just wanted to say good luck to every one. i don't care if i win or not, i'm still gonna keep crunching :rockout:
 
that should be fine

but the results wont be ticking in before 24hours has passed
 
i would change it to 90/100% load instead, and then make it so it only crunch when the rig isnt used for 3mins or more

if you use the rig for gaming etc

Ok, i think im setup. Not sure how to check though. It's working 4 tasks in TPUs name, so hopefully i've done it right.

Welcome aboard!Best of luck :toast:

In the advanced view of boinc, under the projects tab you should have your name and team listed. If it's all good there then it's setup properly.
 
This is awesome of you :)

Makes me wish I wasn't top-75 :o
 
I'll try but I won't come close. lol. I'm soooo in need of a newer system.

I'll have you added. Good luck :toast:


Thought I'd add my opinion on this for all contestants:
At the end of the day, even if you don't win this particular prize, it's valuable research which can lead to cures. I don't think there's a bigger prize than knowing whatever little you contributed is part of something that could save many lives. Crunch on! :rockout:
