Syberius those 970 are still very good for folding, would be very nice if you can. Remember this is all voluntary, not mandatory, but appreciated! I'm just really happy to have a contest, it's always a good thing. Some of our new folders will get to experience it.




I decided to follow mflanaga's lead and match DutchForce's donation to the pool instead. DutchForce, let me know where to send the funds.


That's awesome! Thanks for your generosity!

  • Thanks to incredibly generous donations from yodap, mflanaga and Syberius81 we have a second 10xx GPU to give away - a second EVGA GTX 1070 SC ACX 3.0
  • Also note that donations of all sizes are incredibly useful and will go a long way to getting a 3rd GPU to give away!

I don't have the budget to match your generosity, but I've thrown in what I can toward a 3rd GPU.

Well, good job recruiting Robby! He couldn't have joined a better group of people. And just in time for a contest, if that doesn't get you hooked I don't know what will. :) Now, will he admit to knowing you??  Haha ,just kidding. I enjoyed chatting with you and the guys on TeamSpeak.

Oh yes - will do!
 
I have a to give props to EVGA. My 980ti CLASSIFIED had problems - I sent it to their California facility for an RMA - they had the card ONE DAY and sent me another card!! It should be here Wednesday of next week (Florida).
I have never had an RMA with any of my EVGA parts, so I must say a one day turnaround is awesome!!
Sincere thanks to EVGA

just putting this out there but at the moment to make it a fair challenge teams need to be EST vs Everyone else. estimated PPD's are EST with 13,350,000, MOP with 10,475,000, and CST with 2,200,000.
 
so those living in central, mountain, pacific, or other time zones your teams need your support.

Well unfortunately I had to sell off some hardware. So I'm down from 1.8-2.1 million PPD down to around 200k. Maybe I'll try and pick up another 960 to do with the one I have and get some points back. I'll still be kicking for CST though.

I remember east not "winning" last year. It's all in good fun anyway, the new heavy hitters on the east coast will help alot. Might be a more even contest this year.

Yes East did not win and we extended the event so that east could hit the number of points - Anyone remember that??

I'm quickly realizing that this is going to be the best TZC ever with this and the outstanding prize pool.
Great stuff and thanks to all the organizers.
