Crap crap, this is what brought me out of the masses of average crunchers up into sniffing area of the heavy weights. Either way, I am full tilt on it until it is backed down, then I will add on some MooWrapper.

It's not clear to me how the credits will eventually match up with other projects. I'm happy with my new 590 regardless and I do want to run non nvidia projects as well. So this helps with purchasing decisions...
I guess this means my next pc will have amd cards.

As far as catching sic goes it shouldn't make any difference. They are taking the hit too, just like everyone else is.

I'm horrible at math problems, so help me out here. So lets say that Team X is 100 points ahead of Team Y. Team X makes 2 points a day and Team Y makes 4 points a day. In how many days will team Y catch Team X? If we half the points both teams make each day then how long will it take to catch up. I get 50 vs 100 which would be twice as long. What do you get? So in this case Sic just had their lead effectively doubled on PG.

Yes, it will take twice as long to catch them, but also remember, it's taking them twice as long to get things done too, so, it's not like they are going to be pulling away from us at an increased rate as the ratio still remains the same (which is what I meant by stating, "shouldn't make any difference").

Says the "Under 40" guy.........
[Opinion] The "Recalibration" is a total Crock-O-____ !!! On PG's forum, one volunteer tester even statesWhat a lame answer. I have never seen where PG computes credit based on time. I HAVE read PG Statements where they say their "Formula" was based on quantity of work done. The problem is as they state in this announcement that credit/wu will decrease BUT crunch time/wu will not. Sounds like a cave-in to "DA" and his Demigod mindset.[/Opinion]CPUs and GPUs are much faster than in the past and a credit-recalibration is normal in all projects of the boinc community.
