Well done Jeff. It's a good project to be crunching I think i.e. it is useful science!

I’m always interested in better monitoring apps!

Awesome, thanks Chris. I’ll check this out. I’m using the built in monitor plus nmon and psensor currently. I think you had mentioned nmon previously. It was the only way I could see CPU clock speeds.

Which cloud provider is it? I have had a GPU instance live before, but only within GCP.

Homefarm is Richard, yes. I have a couple of Titan Xs, but Pascal generation. They are basically 1080 TIs. Richard had a Titan V, not sure if he has sold it?

That's Richard's not mine (the Titan V)

Do you have opencl installed? I can't see it in your graphic.

Ah, I see. Much nicer to use them temporarily. They are rather expensive !

You have a Tesla V100?

Oh, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Thanks for the heads up.

I'm on WCG currently and will try to stay on that aside from the next sprint.

Wow, I'd heard something about this 'gash' in the dish ... it looks rather more than a gash!

Good stuff Penny. Lots of dedicated crunching focus I see!

Hi Darren,

Welcome back. Good to have another Londoner

I've not tried the gridcoin integration. Perhaps it is worth another look ... so maybe the (not) ad worked?

I think that quite a few of us have 2080s, 2080 supers, or 2080Tis. What's you're budget? Although they aren't out as yet, I'm wondering if you'd be better looking at a 3060 or possibly even 3070 if the budget can stretch that far.

The nvidia-direct cards do look to be better value. The cheapest partner card is over £700.

I haven’t read the reviews in depth to see what they say about thermals mind you. I believe this card is >300w.

All of the 3080 nvidia stock is already gone!

Up the top it says 'Updated 24 Jul 2020', but I don't know the data duration. I show a lot of Moo!, which I only started crunching for the sprint and a few days before, so it must be recent-ish. Last time I saw those stats, CO was way up there on the global rank and I was nowhere. I guess it has to ...

Ah, Collatz. That’d do it ....

That’s going to need a lot of RAM for all those threads!
