 |
|
If it weren't for my lil' old 4870 ATI/AMD double precision GPU, I would never have been able to get 10 Million in 7 months with one computer.
I had hoped to get it in by early September, but there was a month of SETI shrubbing in August.... That put the brakes on the little train that wanted to.
I feel like I "cheated" to get 10 million when I look at how long so many others have shrubbed away for years on CPU's with single & double cores to get the same total results.
Hat's off to you who didn't have to "cheat".

CONGRATULATIONS!
I am in a similar boat - it does feel a bit like cheating when it takes years to get to 1 million with a CPU, then next to no time with GPU...
