Someone asked if I'd done the Formula BOINC Marathon before and I guess I did as an unwitting member of Team Gridcoin. But since communication is very poor I didn't know it. Time to rebalance.
In trying to get my head around the FB I've been trying to decide how to make the biggest impact and...
Sorry, I keep sucking up every HST that comes along going for my 20 year badge. Should I share???
BTW, in reading the PI's memo I'm convinced HST will continue for years. She got a new grad student and other staff.
When I look at a math DC the first thing I want to find is what mankind might do with the solution. Does it have an applied use or is it just the musings of pointy headed mathematicians.
I just looked at up what Marsenne Primes are on Wolfram and Wikipedia. Not one single mention of an...
There only seems to be 6 TAs at NFS. Ok, this once I'll do math. Come Sunday let's own TN-Grid.
My priorities are:
1. Life Sciences.
2. Physics, astronomy & cosmology.
3. Climate. (May become 1st if someone actually gets one working.)
4. Math.
Banned: The Collatz Conjecture. Their approach is...
Hey TN Tony, I'm making a push on GPUGrid with the intention to push the team well into second place. Everybody come join while Pablo and Adria are keeping the pipeline full of WUs.
For CPU projects I'm working TN-Grid now. With a little a help we could take first place (now 8th) in RAC and with...
I've heard Linux folds faster than Win7, guess they weren't kidding. I'm an old geezer who'd like to maximize my folding but can an old dog learn the new tricks of Linux? My folding rigs are headless & Win7 TightVNC makes that easy to do. Is there a good book or resource I can use to break the...
I've been building my latest rigs with Gigabyte GA-X99-UD3P MBs:

I like the way they use all 40 PCIe lanes straight from the CPU to support graphics cards in either x8x8x16x8 or x16x8x16. There's a block diagram in the manual and...

For my GPU folding rigs I'll take an E-5 over an i7 any day. I'm interested on what kind of motherboard implementations come with AMD's upcoming ThreadRipper. Me wants MB with 64 PCIe 3.0 lanes as either four...
It seems to me that disabling hyperthreading may actually slow the calcs down. The way I do it I open the Windows Task Manager Performance tab and watch the CPU Usage graphs. I usually find that I need to dedicate a thread per folding GPU plus two more. E.g., one folding rig (I believe you call...
