New SETI member!

[jmdixon85]

Hi there. I have just installed Boinc and on the SETI homepage it says I am a member of the overclockers.com team. So does this mean I will be classed as a SETI Team Member in these forums instead of just a member? (as it states under my user name). I just want to make sure overclockers gets the credit for my PC's hard work.

If you go to the User CP screen, theres a "Group Memberships" link on the left side towards the bottom. Just go there and join the SETI group. That should be it. Welcome to the team. But if your a part of the SETI group through BOINC, thats all you need.

Welcome to the team.

 

[jmdixon85]

Have you optimized your rig yet ...?

 

[jmdixon85]

Depends what you mean by "optimized"? I've overclocked it as far as I can. Specs and OC in my sig.

There's a thread in the forums about optimizing. Basically, it installing a new program to do the crunching that is optimized for your chip's SSE instructions. It will greatly speed up each workunit's crunching time. At that speed, you'd be able to get workunits done in about 40 minutes.

 

[jmdixon85]

Thanks for the info. I will look it up now.

If you didn't find the thread just check my sig, "Upgrade those optimizers!!!" ..

Welcome to the team =)

You enjoying how much faster the optimized application is over the stock one? Also I'll note that while it takes RAC a while to climb you can check your daily credit at sites like www.setiatwork.com

 

[jmdixon85]

Yeah, Seen a big improvement. Takes about an hour to do a average WU now. I hope BOINC soon supports CUDA! My RAC is at 593 right now and still rising.

Huh, I was wondering why I was just 'registered'.
Is there a "Forums for Dummies" book?
