And Janos moves into 4th place with immediate designs on third & the top slot just a little further off in his sights. Not bad for 2012's Newbie of the Year. 8) I just hope I get a few weeks sitting in Merlyn's throne before I too am over leapt.

I don't think that is very likely, he pushing out over 6,000,000 credits some days and that is with equipment issues. :salute:Megacruncher wrote:And Janos moves into 4th place with immediate designs on third & the top slot just a little further off in his sights.

Time for an upgrade perhaps Mega? :cheers:

Thanks guys. *bow*
With my hardware issues I am struggling to keep over 4.5m some days. Although I think I have them sorted, well, mitigated for the time being.
My immediate goal is a 7 day average of 5m and hopefully in a few days I will break that.
In terms of team position it is theoretically possible for me to overtake Merlyn this year but to pass Mega in the next two years would take something quite dramatic. Even if I gain on him by 1m per day he has such a lead that it will take me years to catch him.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Gary! A modest upgrade is in hand. But even without that its likely that I will pass Merlyn before Janos passes me. On my side is not only that I am "just" 701M behind Merlyn compared to 849M ahead of Janos, but I am a moving target whereas Merlyn hasn't moved in ages.
Anyway, time will tell.

Working two cards in 8x slots would be just fine. BOINC just doesn't need the PCIe bandwidth that a video game demands. Even at 1x PCIe speed BOINC works just fine.
