not getting bigadv anymore
Posted: Sun Nov 20, 2011 8:50 am
Is anyone else not getting bigadv units anymore? I just checked my stats and it looks like from 11-3 I have not gotten any bigadv units at all on my core i7 system.

you have to keep in mind that 8-core systems were never meant to even run the big adv., and it's not about points for stanford, it's all about the work itself, all they did was eliminate the work-around basically.KnightRid wrote:so they would rather have a few 16core machines rather than 10X the amount in 4-8 core systems. Wow
I just cant justify spending more money on hardware just to do a free project. I hope they do not bail on us 8-core users like they did with the ps3. ps3 got good points, then they killed it and made it useless to run.
Still though, with all the computers running bigadv, you would think it gives a hell of a boost rather than running normal work units. Why take it away when it is working? It really makes no sense.skier wrote:you have to keep in mind that 8-core systems were never meant to even run the big adv., and it's not about points for stanford, it's all about the work itself, all they did was eliminate the work-around basically.KnightRid wrote:so they would rather have a few 16core machines rather than 10X the amount in 4-8 core systems.
