 You earned Neptune badge from project Skynet (Daily Planets)

Badges galore robby! Congrats on all your new editions!

New Today Ruby badge  from project Proth Prime Search (LLR) PRIMEGRID

Robby, Coke and bcavnaugh, congratulations
Ruby on the PPS LLR is nice.
The price for a Ruby is 2mill, and the wu's credit 30p each, so that's quite a few wu's dropped
 
Good job all

Thanks Orange_1050! Here is my latest achievement. oh yeah
"Congratulations!
You've been chosen as the theSkyNet POGS - the PS1 Optical Galaxy Survey user of the day!"
 
M33   and  The Hard Disk Drive    and    and finally Outsmart Ebola together and
Thought I would never get The Ebola Badge.
I think that covers my badge salad.
 

Just got my gold  on PG 
 
and orange, you know you're the top producer (24 hour credit) on primegrid? that's insane!! front page stuff  

Bill,
It is 37 and dropping here in Jacksonville. We are bracing for a hard freeze. You must think that's pretty funny but it does not get that cold here. I am wearing layers and a wool cap as the heat can't keep up. I am a Florida native and it has snowed here 4 or 5 times in my lifetime - we worry more about the pipes breaking.
You finally got the elusive ebola badge - well done!
Stay warm

We start at 25F on Friday Night to 7F on Sunday and maybe a foot of snow here in the Denver Metro.
Time to crank up some more CPU's for PRIMEGRID and maybe even some GPU's. Night we will be below 20F all week.

My first Emerald

Ha ha, I didn't see that, thanks
 
After pulling back from GPUGRID, I saw I was pretty close to that PPS SW Emerald, so I opened up some GPU valves.
When my gpu's are done with their queues, I'll move on to do some GFN WR's. Curious on how they run on 980's.
 

And hell ya it was cold last night / this morn!! I'm in Sarasota and it was 33 with a ~12 degree wind chill.. 
 
I just closed all my windows and let my pc's do the heating  6 GPU's and 6 computers did the trick

How well are they doing, I am kind of down on mine and never got a chance to run mine.
Did they complete in less than 100 Hours?

Sorry for the late response, but by the time of posting, the 980's had not yet began crunch the Genefer's.
Now they have a couple of hours, enough to read a fairly estimate.
 
For those who have not ran any PrimeGrid Genefers, a small update.
There are two types of Genefer's, one small, and one big one.
The small one, GFN-Short, can be ran on both CPU or GPU.
Recent average CPU time according to PrimeGrid 119:23 hrs.
GPU time 13:06
 
Then there is the Genefer I run.
The Genefer World Record GFN-WR.
This is a "Big Guy" and can only be ran trough GPU.
Recent average GPU time according to PrimeGrid is 128:12 hrs.
 
The concept for this is that if you find a prime number trough this search, it's gonna be FrontPage stuff.
They beleive they may hide some of the worlds biggest prime numbers so, this is a hunt for the biggest Fish in the pond.
 
So, for what it takes...
I have served this WU's to a small variety of GPU's. None are done yet, so I'll just give you the estimates.
My BOINC Version is 7.4.36 (x64) so the estimates should be fairly accurate.
 
First the EVGA 980SC:
#1. Elapsed 12:12hrs Time remaining 76:10hrs
#2. Elapsed 12:08hrs Time remaining 76:27hrs
 
Plain GTX760
#1. Elapsed 23:13hrs Time remaining 131:00
#2. Elapsed 23:13hrs Time remaining 115:00
 
GTX660Ti
Elapsed 23:58hrs Time remaining 113:00
 
EVGA 780Ti SC
Elapsed 23:58hrs Time remaining 30:52
 
EVGA 780Ti KPE (Kingpin Edition)
Elapsed 11:30hrs Time remaining 60hrs.
 
I had some problems With the Kingpin's.
The GFN-WR is very sensitive to overclocking, and they kept returning the GFN's With errors.
I reconed it was due to the Stock OC, so I reduced the Power target via Precision X to 85%.
After this, the remaining GFN seemed to stick.
I'll let it be for a little while before I engage the second Kingpin.
 
And for those who Wonder, the GFN-WR grant 50% long job bonus, so if you finish a GFN-WR they pay prox 650K.
 
Crunch On

Prime Grid - Woodall LLR -

Is that a 2 year badge for genome mysteries? I thought that project just started!? 

Congratulations cokeman54!
