But do you really want to live your life without RTX?

Yes

 

At least until RTX gets good.

as someone who owns a 2080ti, lightning no less, RTX is pure shite

I know... just openly mocking Jenson and his BS marketing....

You don't want to buy anything that does not have RTX,  why would you live your life without RTX.... releases more 1060 cards..

October is worldwide breast cancer awareness month, last year the event was held in November. We will have a couple other events going this year, a summer folding sprint, and it is looking like a joint operation with PCGH will happen in February too.

Please consider an event using BOINC if for no other reason than their software is so much more user friendly!    (Also, if you do SETI then LTT could be credited with finding ET...):)

You need to reach out to @Ithanul for that, our BOINC team leader

You might want to consider checking out the BOINC Pentathlon that comes around every early spring. But when it comes to user friendliness I think folding is much more user friendly than BOINC simply because you can install it and ignore it and it will work. Most of our gripes are with optimization to pull that extra last bit out of what we do.

Last hour and change!  I'll be able to sneak in one more WU I think, just barely.

I am not sure how you consider BOINC more user friendly but okay... This might be just me but for folding I basically learned all the basic and advanced stuff in a month or two. 

 

But for BOINC... I got stuck pretty fast and couldn't even get my cpu or gpu to do anything there. As I said, it might be just me, but BOINC client reallllly isn't that user-friendly. In December, I will have to find some solid guide (I used BOINC's guide for the first time and it didn't quite work out as I pointed) for it so I can set it up properly.

I have used both in the past and think they equally have their quarks.


That said, from what i have seen here and on other forums a lot of peoples setup/downtime issues are tied to overclocking and trying to squeeze that little bit more of performance out of their devices and the client locking up for hours / days until they notice and can reset them or trace the issue.

Something to keep in mind, in something like this contest you should take a look at your before and after overclock performance and figure out the % of performance boost, and how many hours / days that buys you compared to baseline if it craps out.

I tend to take the approach of up time is king! If my systems are running the most modest but 100% stable OC and go day and night, then that's better than a small OC performance boost that might thermal throttle or lock up my system for hours while I'm sleeping or at work loosing more PPD than if I never overclocked at all.

I've got at least one more day in my systems. I'll be keeping them all up until the morning of the 6th. After that though I will start setting them to FINISH and commence the cleanup.

Mines on finish now. Going to give the pc a rest. It needs a clean out from all the dust.

These ranks may not reflect the final ranks but will give you guys a rough estimate.

 

 

If anyones hardware have given the ultimate sacrifice then place can you tag @palespartan so we can add it to the list.
