We're in the middle of cold snap here in NC so I'm giving this GPUGrid challenge a go. Join along if you have an Nvidia GPU and need a little more warmth. WUs are scarce but you will get one or two eventually.

Eventually!
It's hard work at the best of times whatever you do.
Still got a couple cooked & ready to upload tomorrow. Hopefully get a few fresher ones before then.

Also be aware that GPUGrid, like Yoyo, does not allow multiple clients. If you download WUs from one client, then connect/update from a second client on the same system, the project will abort any WUs downloaded by the first client, even if they are complete which is a bummer when they can take 12+ hours to complete.

And we are off.
TSBT is second. :-)
scole is 1st & I am 5th. :-)
But that's it! :shock: Where is everyone else?
There's not much work to be had but there is some - I've got 7 WU in progress - so please try and connect to GPUGrid.

The wheels fell off my fastest GPU rigs after I uploaded yesterday. Couldn't get any new WUs on one rig until I rebooted it this morning. The other was my office workstation and the UPS croaked shortly after I left the office yesterday. Just got it back up and running. I hoping to keep all the rigs full of work until the end of the challenge.

No problem.
The main issue has been getting work- Not all of my GPUs have been busy all the time.
I guess this must be why some of our GPUGrid stalwarts have yet to appear on the scoreboard. :(

17 hrs to go and we are in 4th for this one as well. Not even the arrival of TSBT stars of the Noughties, & GPUGrid stalwarts, Aardvark & Ravydavy can get us on the podium. But it's nice to see them. Come on guys, give us a shout!
