Welcome to the 5 figure club! It gets allot slower from here on in. Thankfully though people arent crunching as much in this hot weather so im tearing up the tables :) 5 weeks in, 2 more and I should hit page 1 hopefully!

I should be on page 1 in approximately 56 days at my current output. That's about 8 weeks - Just after my birthday :D

However, that may change if my brother's PC is worth borging when I build it. He doesn't know how often he will be leaving it on.

I am tempted to build another computer just for folding with a nice X2 in there, but at the moment I am about 40 quid shy of hitting my overdraft limit so you could say I'm skint :(

there's a cupple of £40 X2 MoBo's in the 'b' grade section - snap em up now and get chip after pay day :D

I'm sure we can russle up a PSU, HDD, and some ram in the spair part's sticky.
'New' X2 rig for £200 - result SB takes page one in 14 days. :D

Edit: on the other hand don't spend untill you've got the money - keep those pesky bank charges at bay - there a killer

Yup I've just made it to the over 10k mark myself! :D

You came within a few hours of stomping me when I was down on production last week. I put my foot down at the last minute and I seem to have burnt you off for now :D

And congrats on your 10K :)

Why do I suspect you have some dastardly scheme up your sleeve? :eek:

Meee?! Never! I'm sweet and innocent me! ;)

I have a couple of extra machines running now - but my main "beast" is only running on 1 core as it gets a little warm at the moment, and the other pcs are slloooooooow. But it all counts I guess ;)

My aim is to get onto page 1 before the end of the year (which I doubt will happen...). But it's a target ;)

I have ONE machine and I will be on page 1 in about 7 or 8 weeks. You have several machines so you should be on page 1 by the end of the year lol :D

Ah but I'm sure you're machine is probably equivalent to all my machines put together + a bit of grease lightening ;)

What machines have you got? From your output you're not that far behind on crunching power so you should still deffo get to page 1 before the year is out.
