How much does that weigh and does it require the mobo be horizontal to reduce stress on the mounting points on the mobo?

That's wrap gang. Another sweep for 25 points. The next sprint is 08/31/2023 23:00 (UTC) - 09/03/2023 22:59 (UTC), less than 4 days from now. Join us again!

We've got a comfortable lead heading into the last 6 hours of day 1. If you are running open, consider loading up and turning off network activity until day 2.

It's SRBase! Time to heat up those GPUs!

Not to take the limelight away from the the women's world cup, but does anyone remember this famous football shootout in 2014? This Yale Goalkeeper set a NCAA record for Penalty Kicks Saved that season

A musical history lesson tonight (whether you like it or not). Françoise Hardy was a leading figure in the early 1960's ye'-ye' wave which was European French garage beat music. Although this song was originally made famous by Perry Como, I like this version much better. The background vocals make i...

Another clean sweep and 25 point for TSBT!

The project is Gerasim. They have Win64 CPU, Win64 GPU (nvidia and amd) and linux CPU apps. There are no linux GPU apps

Sprint 14 begins in about 7 hours.

We finish 1st on day 2 as well and it's looking favorable for a 1st on day 3

We took 1st on day 1 and still in 1st on day 2. Keep it up

The forum has slowed down quite a bit. We are a small team with around 50 regular active crunchers, few of which post on the forum any more. I try to post a little occasionally but I guess I've slowed down a bit also

And just like that it's been uncancelled with new dates and times

The print has been cancelled

How is the forum responding for everyone?

The TSBT forum will be offline for up to a few hours sometime over the next 12 hours. If you can't reach it, don't panic

We're back!

Another clean sweep for TSBT! This goes down in history (for now) as the lowest scoring Milkyway challenge in Formula Boinc or any other competition. The 3 day total for all the participating teams was just 13,753,544. During a Sprint last September running Milkyway, the combined scores of all teams...

I think we squeaked by to finish in 1st on day 1. Can't tell for sure. The FB site seems to be down. I wonder if someone is bitter about the day 1 standings

Last hour of day 1. We're hanging on to a slim lead of less than 100k ahead of the Yanks!

The project is Milkyway! Since they've shut down the separation app, the only option is to run the nbody CPU app, which is multi threaded so be careful. It will use all your threads unless you have an app_config.xml in place to control the number of threads per WU. If you need help, just ask.

Get those caches cleared out. The Sprint begins at 00:00 UTC tonight!

Begins just under 4 days from now. Let's keep the pace up!

And that's a wrap!

another 25 points in the bank for TSBT! Congrats to SETi.USA who gave us a run all 3 days. Well done guys.

The next sprint begins less than 4 days from on 07-Jul at 00:00 UTC. I'll get a thread posted before then

I was/am a boy scout, always be prepared.

Yeah, PCIe 2.0 is no faster than USB3 but I'd expect at least PCIe 3.0, which is double PCIe 2.0/USB 3 or *gasp* PCIe 4.0. I know a new,faster bus would need to be implemented but isn't it time to bump up the performance a little? Or is power consumption the main goal the systems? Faster IO would ca...

I wish they would support SATA or NVMe M2 right on the boards without piggy backing on USB3 or compute/turing pi.

Separation app is shutting down at 20:00 UTC today. If you have any completed separation WUs, you need to upload them ASAP else you won't receive any credit for them. After they shut it down I don't think any WUs, aborted, completed or otherwise will upload. If you get stuck holding them you will ne...

No problem. Look forward to having you crunching for TSBT again sometime

Day 1 and Day 2 over. TSBT finished 1st both of those days. We're trying to finish in 1st on Day 3 for a full 25 points for this sprint.

From the project admin... https://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/forum_thread.php?id=5010 Upload what you have, load all you can and keep crunching it until the very end. Just don't hold any completed. Get them updated before the 20th. What a shame. Milkyway was one of the first projects to have a GPU...

If you have a newer AMD GPU and running Windows, there's a special M Queens app you can install and run M Queens on the AMD GPU. If you want to know how, let me know. By newer AMD GPU, I mean RX 570/580, Vega, Radeon VII and ones released after that. Won't run on Tahiti GPUs. Don't know about Pitcairn

Sorry Pete. I was late getting a thread posted and I've been working on getting my systems running yoyo but we're in it if you'd like to stay

Welcome to another trip in the Way Back Machine. Today's selection is by Herman's Hermits who is still active but not with their front man at the time, Peter Noone. Peter still DJs on Sirius XM's Underground Garage channel occasionally btw. Anywho, in 1966 this song was the B side on the No MIlk Tod...

Everything updated?

Another sweep for 25 forever points!

Smoke'm if you got'm. Next sprint is more than 10 days from now

We squeaked by in 1st on day 1. In 1st during the middle of day 2.
