No problem

Yeah, I did 360M on Universe this year so will only be running it for challenges now (and maybe on the Raspberry Pis since there isn't a lot else for them at the moment)

greetings and warm welcome ! I've passed a milestone of 200.000.000 points in Collatz ... in about a month and a half, the milestone of 15.000.000.000 total points, is going to be passed ...

wowsers ? I am not sure what does it mean !

The Graphic cards are crunching ... form almost two years now ... sincerely, Gregg Roman Granowski ...

This is what I ran on a Radeon VII...

In the app_config.xml, I used this... On Win64, this config must go in filename collatz_sieve_1.30_windows_x86_64__opencl_ati_gpu.config (in project folder)
On Linux, this config must go in the empty file with the appropriate filename. Should be easy to identify. The Boinc client must be restarted after those files are changed. And if it does work, watch those GPU temps. It makes a big difference.

Greetings and warm welcome ... I reached a milestone, of 15.000.000.000 points !

sincerely, Gregg Roman Granowski ...

Very well done, Sir - that is a lot of crunching

Seriously impressive crunching Gregg! Well done!

And wowser is a word, but I'm sure this is not what you meant David!

warm welcome ... there is no issues regarding my ip adress ... thank You for helping ... we have a Primegrid race coming ... hopefully we are able to start ... and get ... a reasonably ... high position ...

I have an issue ... which states ... what is our line ofa action for recruiting New Members ... do we only rely on our's website ... or do we act in another way's ? sincerely, Gregg Roman Granowski ...

I set up a thread for the PrimeGrid challenge. As for recruiting members, I too old and grumpy to be any good at recruiting members but if you have ideas, go for it. The members of the other UK teams are pretty loyal to their teams. I don't think there would be a very good response asking other teams to merge with us but you are welcome to see if there are individuals on UK teams, other teams or unaffiliated crunchers who wish to join TSBT.

a very good question, Sir

We do have a lot of good stats available so that you can see the effect of trying various hardware running various apps.

I realise that not everyone is into team challenges but we do also have a fun head-to-head challenge if a couple of people fancy pitting themselves against each other for a few days. This only works if you are part of TSBT team

we have 13 hours hour to start ... i am settingo 4 x 2080 ti oc for gfn extreme ... good luck to everybody and sincerely, Gregg Roman Granowski ... ...

I've also set ... everything I have ... 12 x rtx 2080 ti oc, 2 x 1080 and 2 x produo ... all to GFN extreme ... hopefully it will help us get ... a reasonably high possition in The Race ... sincerely, Gregg Roman Granowski ... ...

12 x rtx 2080 ti oc

wowsers

That is awesome Gregg - well done.

I can't wait to see the results when those WU start finishing Gregg

I'm running the GFN 21s. I'm wondering if I should switch to the longer WU on the GTX 1080Ti since they have a higher bonus. Anyone know how long they take on a 1080Ti. They're taking 33k seconds on the 21s. I'm having to run at stock speed due to heat.

I found that my Intel servers running at 2.6G do much better than my 3G 2990WX machines. I guess since the 2990WX doesn't have direct memory access on half the cores it slows things up. I might try running the AMDs with 2 WU at 16 cores and assigning the affinity so 1 WU uses only the cores w/ direct memory access and the 2nd WU uses the other cores.

Don't have any finished yet but looking like 44hrs on a 1080ti (Linux, not OC, power limit at 90%)

More interestingly (for me) is that the 1660ti is looking only 10% slower for half the electricity

the 39% is the 1080ti, the following pack are 1660ti (all limited to 117W)

yeah - should be about 49hrs for the 1660ti power limited to 117W

Holy moly. How many amps is your electric service? That's a lot of heaters.

we have a very steady, loohforward position. 12th place ... as for now ... Gregg Roman Granowski

Gregg, when you and davidBAM start finishing those long WU we should improve on the 12th position!

correct ... but the goal should be the place in the first ten !

We can do better than Top 10 Hoping for 8th place after this batch of OCLcudaGFNEXTREME reports - presently all at 89-95% complete.

But, yeah, depends what the other teams return in next few hours

I think TSBT will make 9th long term, not sure about 8th .. of course I had the temerity to doubt whether TSBT could make 15th so my guesstimation skills are seriously in doubt

we like to surprise
