Just realised I've hit the huge 100 million milestone Been a long old slog to become the 2nd member of the team to hit the milestone and only just ahead of the Doc (sorry mate) but im well happy with plenty more to come hopfully Now going to be dropping my PPD down while I have a major farm re-adjustment, selling off 9800 GX2's and GTX 260's to make room for more powerful CPU's and a GTX460 rig, REALLY want a SR-2 build this year though Anyway I'll shut up now, keep on folding all
To reiterate that said elsewhere, a massive achievement and huge well done Rob As this is your own thread I hope you don't mind me going off topic to publicly acknowledge all the help and support you've provided over the last few weeks with my water cooling adventure. Thanks again mate
Just catching up on the posts in chronological order on return from hols, so have posted congrats in the other thread - still, have another pat on the back from me ..... or perhaps I could say 'A kick in the goolies' - for jumping ahead of me in the charts, AND with having a higher PPD AND hitting the 10M milestone before me .... but I'm not that sort of guy. Really well done mate - keep up the great work
Thanks very much everyone Thanks mate, you are more than welcome, hope its all running well and that SR-2 is nice and cool? Yes mate, just putting together a 4 x GTX 480 rig to replace my 3 x 9800 GX2 rig Thanks a lot Doc, not far for you now though mate, keep up the sterling work Like Lizard says mate, we all started somewhere, I started on a couple of 8800GT's and then built up, the only advantage I got is a couple of my multi-GPU rigs I keep in our server room at work as my electric bill is silly high enough already In around 6 months I'll be booted down team rank wise to 3rd by Mr Goodchild, followed by 4th and 5th by a few others creating uber high PPD but its all good as we have a great solid team, looking forward to the Chimps Challenge now Fold on all!
This is an awesome achievement mate, well done! You achieved this in an amazingly short space of time which makes it even more amazing! I can only dream of hitting over 250K PPD at the moment - with only 40K PPD's worth of my farm running at the moment and another 150K PPD worth of dedicated kit sitting doing nothing right now I feel like I'm not contributing well to the team at all, but unfortunately the cost of running them along with the fact that the rest isn't built the way I want it means I have to wait a while before I can fire the whole thing up and give the charts a good bashing. Hopefully once the CC is over I will be able to keep them running and creep back out of the lower end of the top 100. Once again, well done and good luck with your own farm re-shuffle!
