Wow, that was a long time coming, but finally over that first million barrier.

I'm hoping the second million won't take as long, especially with my nice shiny new graphics card and CPU :)

Congratulations, you'll find that the second (and future!) millions seem to turn up a lot quicker!

Thanks all :)

I can't wait for my first project million either.

I'm hopefully going to be doing some over clocking and stability tests of my new hardware, so that should bump up my total a bit too.

Thanks for all the replies, its great to hear from you all.

I managed my largest ever points total in a day (well 10 hours or so) 136,000, whilst I was working on the machine and stability testing the new setup.

I've already jumped to 1.3 mill, so 2 mill shouldn't be that long off.

At stock speeds my new rig does approx 13,000 per hour.

It took me over 5 years to get to 10 million! The rate you're going it'll only take you a few months! Well done!

I won't get to 10 mil anytime soon because I don't have my main rig on all the time. Usually, at the most is on for maybe 20 hours a week, so although when its running it crunches its way through work units at a fair rate of knots, it's not on all that often, so it's balanced out. If I end the year with around 5 mil overall projects i'll be more than happy.

High five to that  :lol:

Well done on your first, and second million though  :D

I'm half tempted to have a look at replacing my ati 4850x2 with the 5000/6000 series.
