Just a reminder it is ECM and ECM P2 WUs that count, there will be four other projects too

So the forst project for the Pent is YoYo@home, in this case you must run ECM or ECM P2 Work Units. This mean the first think you need to do is set your preferences on the site. 

 

 

log into your account here, https://www.rechenkraft.net/yoyo/home.php or create an account with the project here on the boinc manager then log in.. Make sure to set your team to LTT.

Next you want to Edit preferences here. 

image.png.8dee65a90435e105ea6f21072df37e20.png

You want to make sure you have these two ticked.

Finally, run the project.

To bunker, simply set your client to turn off networking after it has downloaded WUs. I suggest using the Advanced view, it makes it easier. 

My Compute preferences 

image.png.adb2e2851a6e19632a4bf71b87c963d6.png

Go to the network settings tab and set it like this to enable to download WUs

image.png.84cc94801758cec29641b907b776cb27.png

Finally, when you have a good number of WUs in the list downloaded make sure to disable all networking in the activity menu.

What hardware are you willing to throw at it? 

I am going to have to see how things go. I will be out of town from the 4th through the 8th. So during that time I need to set it and forget it. 

 

Right now I am setting an AMD 5900X and 5700G, an Intel 5960 and an older Intel I7-3770

Not much of a Gamer….. But I have thing about F@H that may be a little over the top.   See my builds here

FYI on anyone planning on using multiple Boinc instances for bunkering, it apprently doesn't work with yoyo@home. I'm guessing vm's will work, but happened to come across the multi instance trick not working, and that's how I bunker.

@GOTSpectrum - Maybe this is a dumb question... But where is the best place to find our BOINC username? Would it be the same as my YOYO username?

yes, just make sure you use the same email and username for every project and I think that will be fine

Nope, GPU projects will come later, but I have a feeling we will have more GPUs around than CPUs

Figured out what the issue is. My version of BOINC manager wasn't supporting yoyo and integrated BOINC manager update checker wasn't working.

Manually updating the manager fixed it.
