When I started on UD and even in 08 when I settled down again,
----------------------------------------had a stable place to live (I was contracting here and there), I had only two single core machines. I got a gaming rig, an alienware, an I7 920 4 cores (8HT). I never looked back. I bought my wife a computer (with crunching in mind), now I have 4 quad cores running. I'm going part time or I would look at a dual socket machine... the electricity is starting to get ridiculous though... oh well... It's for a good cause.  |

Oh, yes electricity costs are ridiculous. Here, it costs around 0.14-0.15 $US/kWh. And that's just the electricity bill with all the taxes and stuff. Then, the owners of the power grid take their share - also based on how much you consume. Vultures, all of them!
----------------------------------------Luckily, ATM I have electricity included in my rent, but I cannot abuse it either cause then they'll just raise the rent. At the moment I only have my main 6 core/12 Thread machine crunching 24/7 basically, but at times I also have one more (a dual core Athlon64) OC'd at 2.5GHz running now and then. Not the last few months though for various reasons. Then of course I have a couple of servers, but for various reasons they have also been shut off lately. Hopefully I will be able to fire things up soon again! After all as you say, it is for a very good cause! :) Join The International Team: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=CK9RP1BKX1 AMD TR2990WX @ PBO, 64GB Quad 3200MHz 14-17-17-17-1T, RX6900XT @ Stock AMD 3800X @ PBO AMD 2700X @ 4GHz [Edit 1 times, last edit by flodisar at Aug 1, 2012 5:00:00 PM] |

Hello team!
----------------------------------------Ok, so like I wrote earlier I bought a new (used) car. Well, it worked up until today as the car reported some engine problem. I quickly turned in to the saab workshop and they took a quick look and said that the Particle filter was clogged. So they activated the cleaning process on the car manually and then they said that I should drive long distances. So I did, and it went well but the car drinks a lot more diesel now...strange....i am not surprised anymore...:( Join The International Team: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=CK9RP1BKX1 AMD TR2990WX @ PBO, 64GB Quad 3200MHz 14-17-17-17-1T, RX6900XT @ Stock AMD 3800X @ PBO AMD 2700X @ 4GHz [Edit 1 times, last edit by flodisar at Aug 5, 2012 5:45:20 PM] |

Best of luck Flodisar on the job!
----------------------------------------We are in a challenge that involves most results, One of the 3 projects I'm currently crunching is crunching for sustainable water, that really ramps up result numbers. I was getting close to 1000 a day when I was doing it solo. But hey it's all in fun, just thought I'd point it out. (I had to add in a couple other projects because I'm trying to increase the lowest run time projects to even them, if that makes sense, worded poorly sorry) |

Thanks Jack!
----------------------------------------Oh yes the challenge, I was running some HCC (fairly short WUs) and hovered around 300 results/day on a single PC. Now I am off HCC for a while and crunching CFSW, DSFL, GFAM and CEP. Hopefully we'll be able to climb a bit in the challenge! Nighty night!
