2019 Formula Boinc Sprints

[Howdy]

Well unfortunately it looks like we'll be fighting to keep 3rd place against GC. Although SUSA has a smallish lead (pending they drop something) it seems to be enough to keep 2nd out of reach.

Well, just like when I was married..........always wrong. Hmmmmmm well maybeeeeee she was r......awwwww hellllll no!!!

Einstein@home final.
Wowzer, what a finish. Second place. Two in a row.
A mega dump by phoenicis and lots of previously pending tasks being validated made for an exciting finish.
Way to go TeAm!!!
NIce race and rally all.



From FreeDC {enhanced version}



...and almost as exciting, Verstappen hangs on to his controversial win.
The F1 Austrian results

• Max Verstappen 1:22:01.822
• Charles Leclerc +2.724
• Valtteri Bottas +18.96

Thank you O.K.! I'm waiting for individual freeDC stats and there are some huge figures as expected. I don't know how warm phoenicis house is, but I suspect it's more than enough to induce sweat.

 

[TennesseeTony]

Well the long task I mentioned is disappointing:

It was 30+ degrees C in the UK on Saturday. The rigs didn't melt without A/C but I did

I missed this sprint - should have paid more attention. Any idea when the next one starts and what I should help with?

Well, we should probably be noisier!
Usually if I want to run something but can't decide what, I'll take a look at this list and pick something that I like and also looks like the TeAm might be competitive in with a little more help.

Thanks for checking in burniatortech4! Good to hear from you.

Looks like you've already been answered, so I'll close with Happy 4th of July (to many of you)!

 

[ao_ika_red]

Just about 8 hours (2300 UTC, 10 July 2019) until the sprint project announcement. Let's hope Sebastien didn't fall asleep before announcing the sprint project.

Milkyway@home is the sprint for this HOT weekend

 

[ao_ika_red]

Three ATI-GPU preferred projects in a row. What???

 

[crashtech]

I know, my 7970s are old monsters at this, crunching and munching a task every 35-40 seconds! Hard to keep them properly fed.

With Milkyway, I won't even think about trying to bunker.

Switching preferences to allow CPU's on N-Body, and turning on the ancient green cards.
The red card has been doing MW for awhile. 25M isn't in striking distance, yet.

[Kiska]

Did someone say "wouldn't try bunkering"?

 

[TennesseeTony]

This slipped my slippery mind yesterday. Bunkering now on 4 AMD cards and one 1080Ti.

 

[emoga]

I'm a little late to the party since I had to dig out the Tahiti's (again)
Yup, put them in storage because I thought, "no way its going to be milyway...there won't be another gpu project till the fall"
Not sure if its a sign that I should sell them or keep them

Unfortunately I was unable to get the full 17 clients of work, because I fell asleep....

Sleep is overrated

It seems like Milkyway will not fill your queue until you have a valid WU. Worse, it stops giving me work once I have any invalid work. And invalid work seems unavoidable - I had an invalid CPU task!

 

[ao_ika_red]

It has "moody" server to say the least. Especially when your internet connection isn't exceptionally solid, like mine for example.

My oldest GTX 1080 died yesterday.
