AMD Users just passed 60,000,000 credits on the Einstein@Home project

Congrats to all past and present participants!

The AMD Users team has just passed 70 million credits on einstein@home.

We are also not far from catching up with Rechcraft.net (10 days) and boinc.cz (20 days) at our present rate.

Congrats team!

[Dirk Broer]

And 5 million of those are yours! Congratulations

Thanks, this nVidea GTX 580 card is a wonder..

[Dirk Broer]

I bet it's one of the best cards you presently can use for Einstein. Only the GTX 590 will deliver more performance, but is expensive to buy and (too) expensive to operate 365/24/7. If and when Einstein will bring out an OpenCL application that can be used by AMD/Ati cards/CGPUs (or Intel SandyBridge/IvyBridge) balance would flip to the HD 5970 and HD 6990.
For as it is now the GTX 580 will even outperform the Quadro 6000 on Einstein. For MilkyWay the reverse will be true, but who wants to spend $3000 on a videocard?
P.S. The GTX 295 might be a wee bit better than the GTX 580 for Einstein, but as it is an older architecture I am not 100% sure about that. It is also more expensive to operate, using 289 Watt against the 244 for the GTX 580.
Best performance/Watt (SP) for the nVidia family comes from the GTX 560Ti: 7.43
The Radeon ARES, the best AMD/Ati card when it comes to performance/Watt (SP), brings a hefty 18.50 on the scales. Another card you do not want to run 365/24/7....

AMD users just went over 100 million on Einstein@home!

ded101 is nearing 10 million and I'm on his heels.

[Steve Lux]

Congrats to ded101 for being the first on the team to surpass 10,000,000 or 10 million or 1x10^7 points in Einstein@home!

[Dirk Broer]

Congrats to ded101 indeed!
