I was messing about with the stats, and found out that if you discount the first three days of folding the results look like this:

With Team Dan on 807,554
And Team 2 on 811,214

How close is that!!

nice job! I'm hoping to hit 400k myself. With the problem my quad is giving me, I've crippled myself a bit, but think I can pull it out.

Dan, dicecca... when is the last official update? midnight on Sunday night/monday morning?

wasn't sure, since we didn't start until Monday night (1 day into the EOC week).

Ok, I'm extremely confused on the start day, I thought we went through this the first week with the stats?
If you look at both of our stat sheets, Dan and I have us starting on Monday 7/7, with the 3am update. I'm not too concerned about which team wins or loses. Sunday is fine, it will make it a little closer.

All of my current production will be up until Monday evening regardless as I'm leaving town on Friday (take good care of the kids for me IceMan).

It was late, I was tired, driving home in Monsoon Thunderstorms does that. Its two weeks from the start date, so then if Bwall and Dan are correct (which I'm sure they are), the last update is 7/28. I'll leave it to the two statisticians here to PM me with the winners and the final stats, and then I go about Banning Dan when he starts gloating :finga:

well, I rolled back the drivers, and that didn't work. tweaked the memory settings because i thought maybe the RAM was bad, that didn't help. Finally did the BIOS update and it seemed to work ok. Installed the CUDA drivers and it's working great. Q6600 stock speed, 8800GT 730/1800/750 and it's running just about 4880ppd.

Like I said in PM, with 4 BIOS updates in less than a month, that definitely lead me to believe that was the problem, and it seemed to have resolved for now.

Wow, 4 in a month is definitely suspect! whats the model/manufacturer on that? Might be a cause of problems for others too.

Instead of taking 14 hours to finish a WU (just got the SMP client and I am trying to figure it out, still on the old client), I now take about 2 hours to finish a WU with my 8800gt. I should be getting up there in points soon (hopefully).

I must say, that CUDA driver took forever to download at 56k.

it's a brand new board, that I think they got in a bit of a hurry with. it's a Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3L. Fantastic board, features wise, but it won't be until next weekend that I really beat on it to see where the E8400 with the 8800GTX can go as a gaming rig. I'm shooting for 3.6-3.8 daily, and 4.0 for benching. Of course, that depends on the E8400 as well. I took a couple of brief runs at overclocking it and couldn't get it stable, but I blame that on my old Asus 650i board.
