The Scottish Boinc Team

Hey Alez,

I did notice the website and forums changes. Good to see things are still progressing forward around here.

Have made you the founder as requested and emailed Rosetta to let them know.

Any problems give me a shout. :)

Regards,

Emily

Hi all. Long time no see. :) I've had a pretty rough few years hence I've not been around which I will explain another time if I feel up to it. For now to business at hand. Someone has requested the founder role for TSBT on Rosetta and I got an email asking for me to reply or they would transfer it....

Some of these figures are now approaching silly...

I LOVE IT!!!

Think i found the problem.

In the DistRTgen website you need to go into My Account, DistRTgen Preferences and tick the option "Run test applications?" as the ATi (AMD) code is still officially under testing.

Running now.

Will leave that on while I'm at work today as see how it goes.

I already have a 7970 but I couldn't get it to take GPU tasks on DistRTgen.

What driver and boinc versions you using?

I was going for fashionably late here..... but i think I may have failed.

Happy new year folks.

May there be graphics cards in your resolutions.

woops ive been away from here for to long. didnt even realise. thanks folks!

would we ever ignore a challenge?

bring it on!

Well one of my cards bit the dust after 14 months of pretty much full load gaming and boinc. Interesting thing is that it seems to be just the fan that has failed. (bearing feels screwed) Trust me it was a wonderful noise when it happened! :shock: Seeing as something has actually broke and its not u...

it's ludicrus (sp?) but then so is the credit we're putting out so why not lol

ah. ok that makes sence. cheers temujin.

now to pass him in boinc overall stats then!

ps. Jim get your teams sorted

Just noticed i hit a few decent figures today.

8 million cobbles/points/credits/thingymibobs overall

Top 10 in TSBT (according to temujin anyway, boinstats disagrees with Jim MacKay's figures by about 400k)

Top 100 in the UK (really happy with that one.)

go me! (long live the gpu)

Cheers Jock.

Good news is we did it!

Don't know why I'm so happy about this. It just feels good.

No i don't mean my crunchers... I'm talking about stooping the x factor getting to Christmas number 1. I'm all for the campaign to get Killing in the name by RATM to number 1 and not another year of x factor garbage. If you haven't downloaded it yet please do so. It's only 29p on Amazon UK! You have...

i think the cpdn rule should be that we always have a higher rac than them just so we keep catching. dosn't have to be much but we dont want them getting further away.

As the project founder I feel so bad about the state I've let Rosetta get into that I'm going to put the Core i7 onto it for a while to give it a boost. I know my personal return will be garbage but it will do the project some good.

is this project up or down right now? trying to get some CUDA love going on here after getting peeved with gpu grid and i cant see the web site.

i go away on holiday and have to close my systems down and you guys still speed up. got to love this.

to the next 10!

ok my first entry.

I'd like to dedicate this one to Megacruncher.

A young man of TSBT fame
Thought CPU's were the name of the game
But then with GPU power
He got more credits an hour
And managed to keep the leccy bill sane (ISH!)

/me exits stage left....

warning. that bug bites hard.

keep up the good work.

well if its an all expenses paid trip i'll take one of them

pool table, pin ball machine all is good in the basement.

i sence an air con in your basements future.

its 2 floors down so you wont hear it so much

Hey guys. Looking through stats (yes boring friday night) and we are going to lose UK number 1 in AQUA in 2 days if we don't treble our output. Do we let the UBT have it or send full power to the cores?

if your on 32 bit you should still be using the 8.12, 9.1 or 9.2 drivers only. for 64 bit vista you can use any driver (with the now appaent exception of 9.6) as long as you do the copy and rename the 3 files trick.

use the asus bois recovery on the drivers cd that came with the board. dont plug any other drive in but the optical though to make sure it boots from it.

can't wait for top 25. there is something about being before the repeated titles on boincstats that i like.

its a bug i have in 6.5 but i prefer it to my gpu grid taking 50% longer per wu which I was getting in 6.6.2* versions.

6.5 bug when running gpu at the same time. suspend your gpu project and give it 10 minutes then try again.

gpu grid is playing up on cpu usage and slowing down on any verion of boinc ive tried above 6.5.0 the .23 version and .26 versions both made it much worse. my average time per wu went from just over 8 hours to 12 hours plus. maybe a cuda thing in general but might be worth trying an older boinc inst...

my room hits about 32 - 34 while im out during the day. get the air con on as soon as i get back though to bring it back down to a much more managable 22.

congrats on the mega millionaire. hope to see you there shortly. :)

you begger!

and here i thought i might catch you with 1 and a bit ati cards.

got for it mate.

thread bump! now at 5 million, just broke into the top 2000 in the world and by tomorrow should be top 100 in the uk. I hijacked bro's pc with his 4850 again and i have my own mini itx lan gaming box with a heavily oc'ed 4850 going nuts right now. (625 mhz stock and its at 780 mhz and no its not a s...

Magic!

Got to love those ATI cards.

Im afraid I am also part of the slow down. My system had boinc disabled due to heat as my room is far to small to curtail the heat output of the core i7 and the 2 x 260's. Even at stock speeds and no gpu crunching the system was getting dangerous during the day when i wasnt here. The problem appears...

And my money you shall have good sir!

Just don't expect that to work every time

<--- is scared of sunlight so your in good company!

keep em coming.

common steve i need 11 million out you in 24 hours. you can do it!

welcome everyone.

say hi and join the fun.

hats off to the determination good sir.

things will be a slot simpler once boinc, nvidea and ati all get round the table and discuss openCL...

it is at this point i get to say... I hate you

gz though!

already bought a few bits for a modding lan system project ober the last week. I have a 4850 stting behind me not plugged in. just need to get it up and running faster lol

right this has gone on long enough. i need more gpu power!!!

indeed thank you one and all.

I believe i once issued you a warning jock in another thread about passing me.... go for it!!!

will need to have a look see at bro's system. not doing what it should. (or more to the point what we want it to be doing!)

woho i got a kudos!!

ah the old ways are the best. cheers mega and gratz all round.

funnilly enough i bugged back to one gpu after a recent graphics driver update. going to rollback it and / or boinc when i get a chance to see if i can get the two to show again.

the whole diskless client thing seems like an awful lot of hassle for the cost of hard drives these days. unless there is another advantage i am missing the point off.
