Re: The most points

This would be nice to see. I wish WCG would send out one work (same) unit to all systems and list information such as processor, memory and total time to crunch. I asked this qustion earlier and was directed to a page ( http://www.boincstats.com/stats/host_cpu_stats.php?pr=bo&st=0 ) to give you an idea but its not broke down to a single computer.

Re: The most points

There's always here too

http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/stat/viewStatsByMemberAVG.do

But the same applies no info re PC Spec but it does show what might be possible

I suspect loads of overclocking and the application of liquid nitrogen that usually does it

Re: The most points

The best you can do would be to look at BOINCStats, and sort on daily or RAC. That will be only the BOINC portion of the machines here (something like 10%, I think). But all the high-power machines (multi-thread) are going to be running BOINC anyway. Just remember to multiply BOINC credits by 7 to convert to WCG points.

Re: The most points

Make it around 30% and consider that BOINC time is CPU time whereas UD agent is reporting wall clock time.

How to equate: Take global BOINCstats, multiply the points by 7 and express that as global points for WCG. Yesterday per the external source we did +2,678,912 BOINC credits = 18.75 million UD points on 47.196 million Global per WCG is actually 39.7%.... a force to reckon with. And there is All that untapped power with folk running UD agent on dual cores, but using only 1. crying

Re: The most points

There's just too many hardware combinations and variables to make a list of what each computer can do. Overclocking, instability, non-optimal hardware changes would only complicate things further. For example, something as simple as adding a non-matching stick of RAM can cause a computer to reduce it's bus speed by a large amount.

Here's some numbers I've come up with for hardware I've worked with and assume the use of the BOINC agent and all hardware and software is optimized and working properly:

AMD Athlon 64 processor: 39 WCG points/hour/GHz/CPU

So an 3800+ X2 2.0GHz should get 39x1x2x2=156 points/hour or ~3700/day.

Intel Core 2 Duo: 40 WCG points/hour/GHz/CPU

So an E6400 2.13GHz should get 40x1x2.13x2=170 points/hour or ~4090/day. Overclock it to 3.4GHz and you get 6500 points/day. Or get a QX6700 quad core like I have now running at 3.5GHz and crank out 13,500 points/day! biggrin

Of course this is just a rough estimate, but should be accurate to within 5% or so.
