If mine sieves close to yours, I'm happy to give it another 24-36hr on the GPU to perhaps find improvement. But when my first effort scored 10% worse than yours, I admit to losing interest.

I'll have a try at Schickel's 572000:3135 150 digit number. Mainly to test my scripts for poly searching, but I'll post the best one I find.

Chris[/QUOTE]OK, thanks for the run; I'll start a job when you post a poly.

Don't wait. It looks as if the PSU could not take the extra load. It won't even turn the fans any more. I'll have to take the PC to a repair shop tomorrow for a new PSU (if that's what failed).

I've already had to buy a better CPU cooler to replace the stock one. Adding the cost of a new PSU to that and it'll about double the cost of the GPU.

Chris[/QUOTE]Sorry to hear that. I'll go ahead and run a test today then to see which of the 3 polys sieves faster.

-Curtis[/QUOTE]My next jobs are going to be larger, so I assume they will benefit more from an intensive GPU search. As it stands, my highest poly and your poly sieved about the same speed, with yours faster by a hair, but the yield for yours was ~13% less..... I should have my answer in ~10 days or so.

OK, thanks for the info. I'll proceed to RichD's C160 once I finish a job for my own composite; I should have a first poly Thursday evening, and will let it run until Sunday. A C160 should have 10+ GPU days of poly search, but I don't have the resources available to do that.

for the C184, I reverted back to quintic, and got

[/code]

For the C160 from 3408:1385, the first day's search turned up a score 1.19e-12. The window msieve "expects" is 1.33e-12 to 1.52e-12.

I will post any poly that improves on this 1.19 score.

For what it's worth I've run -npr against the best 100 (of 2669441) entries in msieve.dat.ms from my run on Tuesday. I got: [code]

[/code] That's probably not very good since the GPU didn't run for very long before the PSU died. Elapsed time above is for npr only.

I have no polys above 1.19 except this one. I'll give it one more day to improve, but this is a usable candidate in my opinion.
