Hi @dutch, cool, thanks for that! :)
I'm still getting a hang of how it works but I was able to grasp about BOINC. I have a GeForce GTX 960. If I do a straight month of mining, do you have a rough estimate of how much GRC I'm going to mine? Thanks!

Hi @dutch, cool, thanks for that! :)

We can do a rough estimate based on a GTX 960 in my cluster. I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (2048MB) which contributes 120,000 RAC (Recent Average Credit) of the total 775,000 RAC I have in 'Moo! Wrapper'. It is running with stock settings.
The total income I earn from this project is 38 GRC/day. That means the GTX960 is making about 6 GRC/day, or 180 GRC/month. I have only been running this card for about 2 weeks though, and RAC does not cap until about a month, so the GTX960 making 200GRC/month in Moo! Wrapper seems like a fair estimate.
You could probably make a bit more if you ran Primegrid or Amicable Numbers. You could also earn more if you set up your GPU to run OpenCL instead of CUDA jobs (CUDA is NVIDIA exclusive and less efficient in Moo! Wrapper). The latter is for advanced users though.

Ahh, I see. Thanks for that. I'm currently reading up how to set up so I can start BOINCing! :) Greatly appreciate your help. I'll keep this noted. :)

Hi, its me again. I'm using "grcpool.com" pool. I've completed a task but doesn't seem to transfer. Do you know what might be the problem on this please?

I already have 480.00 credits. How do I calculate potential magnitude or GRC base from this?
I'm at Asteroids@home :D

You can't really extrapolate your potential mag this early. After running for maybe a week you can get a pretty good estimate of your maximum mag with your current setup, and thus your GRC income.

Hey! Tasks aren't always uploaded immediately. You can force a task to upload though by selecting 'update' on the project from your BOINC manager.

By "I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (2048MB) which contributes 120,000 RAC", do you mean, one machine that has one NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960?

Correct. I actually have several machines with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960, but that number is for one card in one machine.
