Well done; first prime? beer's on you then ;-)

...and considering how long Fermi took to nail down properly (ie, the 110 GPU), perhaps it will be 2014 - ish!!!!! Maybe I should look at a pair of ATI (sorry, AMD) cards in a year's time when I come...

I thought I had some luck, but Ricky is beating me into the ground with a very large hammer!!!

I do believe congrats are in order once again - this time for a 661,368 digit Generalized Woodall......

With another of my pending Sophies confirmed last night, I have now popped into the top 500 listing (by prime score) @ #389 :icon_mrgreen:. Still 2 Sophies pending - so should pop up a few more...

Anybody who contributes for nothing doesn't need to apologise - very grateful for your continued contribution above and beyond.

Had one of my pending Sophies confirmed as initial finder yesterday...

ROFL.

I'm happy to write a PERL page scraping script if that would help his manual efforts. I'd have to know where he went for his information, and what bits he extracts, but the offer's there if...

OK, here is the Caldwell entry for the Proth:

and the corresponding entry for the Sophie Germain:

Ahh, I see.

Yes, all my find have been done through PrimeGrid, and I don't think I will be operating outside of PrimeGrid for quite a while.

I'll rummage back through my emails and find the...

I'm the only active Area 51 (I think I was second to the American).

Are you referring to BOINCStats entries? I must admit, things do seem a little confused since I crunch for the GPU USers GRoup...

It would definitely be a bad thing all round if this happened. Can't really see much point in Dell acquiring AMD, I would have thought it was in Dell's interests to keep both AMD and Intel around as...

I think I've hijacked this thread enough - wouldn't want to steal MiHosts's considerable thunder. Can a Mod please move my previous posts and Dirk's response to a new thread so I can get to the...

Total congrats - peachy find. Wish I had the patience to get one that big. I tend to stick with the shorter tasks.

On a related note, I don't seem to be listed in the AMD Users prime finders department...... I have 1 Sophie, and 1 Proth to my name ATM. I...

I did a trial the other day and switched in a 120mm fan in place of the 140mm and everything was fine. A bigger case would be the obvious long-term-solution - and indeed, I had expected to do a case...

Well, my PSU turned up a day later than expected. Installation has been a pain, and it s not finished yet by a mile. The new cables are so long that I haven't been able to stash the excess anywhere!...

Its a nexus (850W). This is the second that's gone down. This one lasted 3 months (which was about how long the first one lasted), so I should get most of my money back once I RMA it. I've taken the...

Good news and bad news. Found a 'Sophie' lurking in my cache:

(OK, I didn't find it, Dark Orion did)! Thats one for the team.

I stand corrected on the precise numeric allocation. The point I was headed towards was simply that a portion of CPU resources will be dedicated to supporting the GPU - and that the default MAY be a...

Look out for the default settings in client_state.xml. PrimeGrid reserves 0.7 (ish) CPUs to support each GPU. Consequently, you can quickly find all of you CPU cores assigned to supporting your...

Welcome to the 7 digit club - not that I've been here/there that long :icon_lol:

I'm in the process of finishing a new study atm, which will be a lot cooler than my current study (which sits above and behind a very hot wood burning stove!!!!!) and doesn't have a window to speak...

I've seen some great pictures of car rad' cooled setups and certainly, if you cant get a pump with enough balls to push the fluid through (and keep the joints water-tight), they make good sense -...

Love the 1090; 50% more cores with no extra heat!!!! There's about 1.5 degrees extra on the Northbridge, but I can live with that. Big salute to AMD for the design of the 1090; very impressive.

I think Sphire is the next colour @ >4,000,000.

<edit>sorry, got my colurs mixed up, I believe it ruby @ >4,000,000</edit>
