Yes as near as I can tell. Been a long time out in the cold Brrrrr.

Lots has happened including changing jobs, a very sad job that made me cry of having to destroy 3 hives due to disease after building up to 6, MB going frootloop on me and having to be returned to the manufacturer and best of all a new Thermaltake cooler which has let me clock this baby to 3.7 GB running at 39C steady Smile

Quote:
On 18 Jan 2012 21:13:24 UTC, PrimeGrid’s Generalized Fermat Prime Search found the mega prime: 525094^262144+1

The prime is 1,499,526 digits long and enters Chris Caldwell's The Largest Known Primes Database ranked 2nd for Generalized Fermat Primes and 24th overall.

The discovery was made by David Tomecko of the United States using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 in an Intel Core i7 980 @ 3.33GHz system with 24GB RAM, running Windows 7 Ultimate. This GPU took about 55 minutes 24 seconds to probable prime (PRP) test with GenefCUDA. David is a member of the The Knights Who Say Ni! team.

The PRP was verified on 19 Jan 2012 7:37:53 UTC, by Rick Reynolds of the United States. For more details, please see the official announcement.

We got another valiant PrimeFinder on the KWSN rolls! Congrats to Sir David!

No, 121 was out of work so my backup project was ESP. In the couple days I was on the project I hit the prime. Now I am back on 121.

Finished my TPR Sieve Ruby a few weeks back.
Getting close to my PPS Ruby and because of finding a few PPS primes over the past few weeks I have moved into the top 100 BOINC Prime Finders (PSA primes are not counted on the BOINC board).

40 SGS Primes with 1 Twin Prime (counts as 41)
Currently 39 PPS primes
So a total of 80 primes 38 as finder, 42 as double checker.

omg, that certainly is a rare amount of rubies to be crunching towards.
I'll settle for ruby for GPU only and silverish for CPU only.



PS. Free-Dc statssite has your badges in a single image. if you click on cross project identifier. Too bad this forum does not support links like .php

Finished these two:


Working on TRP. Shouldn't be too long to have that at Amethyst. Then on to Ruby. I currently am looking at doing them all in shortest to longest order, so the progression will be 321, Cullen, Woodall, and finally PSP. I may mix it up a little. Since the Gen 3 chip uses AVX, I have tested it on PSP and Cullen and made a little headway toward Amethyst. I am unsure if I'll try and make them all Amethyst first then Ruby, or just go all the way.

Anyway a lot of work ahead of me.
