Rank 99 project wide. My first time breaking into the double digits club.
It looks like I've got a decent chance of holding onto the spot. Boincstats lists me as 69 overall by RAC, and suggests I should overtake 8 more people in the next 3 months, without anyone passing me by. OTOH it's getting warmer and this is my first year with 3 GPU boxes; I might shut down the oldest to save on the AC bill. On the gripping hand I'll probably be buying a GTX 1080 for my gaming box; and end up pushing my lesser cards down the line for a performance bumps all around.
Dan, Nice work on that! I am curious to see how the 1080 runs with this project.
Thanks guys.
Actually I haven't paid for most of the HW I have, but various companies are sending me the latest stuff for testing and supporting. I'd never buy so many Xeons or a Tesla.. So to pay it back and make it useful, I run BOINC :-)
I've got most machines in my office, which is at the top of a building (beneath the roof) and no A/C. This place can get pretty hot in summer. So it's not just about machines getting overheated, but me too. In the summer the temps inside my office are ~ outside. So I need to switch off most of them, otherwise I would die here ;-)
I'll be also upgrading my CPUs (to Xeons mostly) + new GPUs, so I hope when I fully come back in autumn, the power (and efficiency) will be much better :-)
Eight years crunching for Einstein at home completed, reached 19 064 994 points. Advanced Ligo started with a big success, that is very encouraging for the work of so many people. I think the next months will bring further discoveries, its an exciting time for science.

So am I. Based on specsheet improvements I'm expecting my 135k/day host to become an ~180k host; with hardware trickledown effects gaining me a net ~100k/day; or allowing my RAC to stay even with my oldest box in summer standby. Real world variability is probably good for 20% or so on those projections in either direction.

Congratulations! I also run into heat issues in the summer time with systems running in the garage.
Thanks guys. Actually I

After 200M cobblestones may i say, woo!
Wow silently passed 130M on

Wow silently passed 130M on Einstein ^^ For Science!!! :)
