I do what I can. and I have noticed I will be over taking you in the team rankings soon jonnieb-uk so I hope you won't start ignoring me in the updates

I was also really thinking about getting a 7950 card to boost results, but given there is only one project with GPU support and it could end in the 50days (so say themoonscrescent) I really can not justify buying that card which would go completely unused once the HCC GPU workunits dry up.

On the other hand, I might get a AMD FX-83XX 8 'core' machine for less than <400. I like the price point of the CPU+other bits and I would just be using it for crunching so raw performance isn't so much of a factor for me. Just something I can set up with linux and leave running in the corner of the room plugged into my router.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of checking the amount of time left on HCC. I wasn't considering buying it for a while, yet - probably a few months or so, so I'd have noticed the end of the project, but thanks for the reminder!

I know the techs have mentioned the possibility of further GPU-based projects, but I guess it's a case of waiting and seeing...

Another place gained in the RunTime rankimgs as the UK team moves ahead of IBM Australia to #78.

The target now becomes IBM Austin estimated at 8 days.
