(), I got another ancient 1.6Ghz machine up an running. Trust me it took much more effort than i can maintain on a dally basis. It won't last long. By the way how do you get this thing outta second gear!?!

Running it on 88% of CPUs (7 of my 8 cores) at 65% duty cycle, plus the in-chip graphics (HD 530) and my GTX 970.
'Course, playing WoW or Ark: Survival Evolved means not crunching work units.
(I wonder how much quicker a GTX 1070 or 1080 would be than the 970...)
Our team is #176 for now!

Well, everything is back to normal. I've had my 15 min's in front and am looking forward to a rest from trail blazing. Millguy was such a gentleman as he walked quietly by with a little wave, as if to say thanks for the break but your in my spot....
I'm only using the computers i have at home. Now that it's cooler the one i built to run seti 24/7 is going full blast and doing very well. However it's old tech compared to the more recent stuff. I also have another cheap (goodwill) computer I'm running just to help out. These two win10 computers are the bulk of my contribution to the effort, mainly because I have no real use for windows and they can crunch right along without interference. Now my 2015 imac is another seti crunching beast and really helps to push us up, but I use it for everything including home entertainment. It was very expensive to buy and would be almost impossible to repair, and because Apple worries more about looks than heat removal it runs to hot for my liking when on seti. I don't want to start a Apple vs PC bashing contest. I'm very happy to own and use Apple products and in every other way they are what i like in a computer. Just not where seti is concerned at lest as far as the imacs go.

My "recent average credit" keeps dropping lately... not sure why!
After taking a quick look at your stat's you don't seem to be using the 8 core cpu at all or very little. The gpu's are doing all the work. Check your settings. Hope this helps.
