    Me too, short and sweet. Plus being Summer and all, not going to throw too much at this one.
    Maybe a 1080Ti or two and a RTX2060. 
    I'll do some testing to see what works better, 1080Ti, 2060 or Radion VII.

    I'm in. Just had to check to see if I had set this project up after the last challenge ended, I did so and ready to roll.

    Did some testing on my machine with the CPU tasks. For me it would be a waste of CPU power, with little return, for a three day challenge. My run times were looking like 1 day 14 hours to 2 days. Those times would probably have settled down some as I ran the tasks but I did not want to tie up my CPU for a two day test run so I aborted after two hours. I will just stick with GPU tasks with a 8 minute run time.

    Run 2 at a time on GPU. Much more efficient.
