Glad to see other people getting ready for FAH. Help kick me back down from daily 4th place. Something I'd gladly give up for the team. :toast:

mx500torid · Oct 16, 2018

Just stopped in to be amazed at these numbers. You guys are AWESOME!!!

Boatvan · Oct 16, 2018

Man if I had some more financial padding for electric bills, I'd mess with folding and also fire up my WCG farm full force like before. I know my big servers suck a lot of energy, but will running F@H on a GTX 980 full force about 10-12 hours a day (while I'm home/asleep):
1 - Adversely affect my energy consumption (compared to crunching)?
2- Be worth it (ppd/work done wise)?

I don't expect you guys to have exact answers but I feel like I'm wasting my potential with my card as I don't game a whole lot anymore.

thebluebumblebee · Oct 16, 2018

A GTX 970/980 only pulls about 130 watts for F@H. They're still a very viable F@H card. Part time is understandable, but the heat can be used in the winter time, as is the case for me. Hint: try to not pause WU's, but select finish so that you get all of the QRB.

Edit: I should be picking up a GTX 1070 Ti Strix tonight, but it's not for me. I'm going to get to play with it this week, so the numbers that you see from me is going to be from that GPU.

Boatvan · Oct 16, 2018

Thanks for the info! Decided to do a month trial of the previously mentioned constraints. Are there any tips/tricks you can offer? I know you said to finish WU's or set it to finish WU's but this is all new to me. I am obviously trying to utilize my GPU, so I set the client to use 1 thread of CPU but not much further configuration is done right now.

Are you saying you set one thread aside for F@H to use or that you set the CPU slot to 1? You don't want F@H working on the CPU.

@Boatvan You didn't get any bonus for the one WU you sent in. Did you remember to put in your pass-key?

For some reason I thought that was required. I limited it to one thread I think. Should I remove the CPU slot all together?

Good call. I dug through my email and found my old pass-key.

Thanks guys!

Boatvan said:

Yes, it's not needed. If you're crunching also, you need to reserve the thread there (% of the CPU's in Computing Preferences)

thebluebumblebee · Oct 16, 2018

Here's what that 1070 Ti is doing. Completely stock, W10, i7-6700K, Seasonix X-650 PSU, ~210 watts. Also I can't hear it!

Norton · Oct 19, 2018

Any idea what happened to the stats site(s)?

NastyHabits · Oct 21, 2018

@Norton The stats server has been down since sometime last Thursday. (My last report was at 1:43). The Pande group has been notified, but don't expect any fix over the weekend.

hat · Oct 21, 2018

Tomorrow I will <try to> do something. F@H will be used as a "stability test", hopefully a looooooooong stability test... there's a questionable power supply around here that needs to be checked, and a 660Ti in a bin that is getting bored. I had humble beginnings here on the team with a dual core processor running two instances of the shitty single core folding client way back when... and my first serious folding card was the 384MB 9600GSO. It'll be nice to come back. :toast:

WCG currently loaded up on my i5 2400 and Athlon II x4... nothing else to throw at it at the moment.

So I guess I'm not adding the 660Ti after all. The system seems to crash shortly after running F@H (but seems to be fine so far with WCG only). Questionable PSU is even more questionable now. I could swap in my old Radeon 5870 and try folding on that to be sure, but it's not looking good.

hat · Oct 23, 2018

So... no work units for Radeon 5870? The console is spitting the error "No WUs available for this configuration"

No luck with my old GTX260 either. What are the minimum requirements these days?

>2 million PPD? :eek:

Remember when 5000 or so was good?

Norton · Nov 7, 2018

Gunning for the team Top 20!

@infrared @T-Bob @TeXBill @manofthem .... I'm coming up in your rearview mirror!

infrared · Nov 7, 2018

Damn, you've pretty much already passed me! :nutkick:

Sneaky!

Throttled down to one GTX 1080 for a couple of days to give you a good look at my rear bumper as I go by

TheoneandonlyMrK · Nov 8, 2018

Just thought I'd say hi , I'll be seeing what this rig can do for the cause for a bit.

thebluebumblebee · Nov 10, 2018

Got up and checked EOC to find a fat zero for the day. "Now what's wrong" goes through my head. Check the system and everything seems to be working normally, temps are normal for a working system and there are no errors in the log. I start to formulate a post on F@H's forum in my head, but I go back and look a little closer. I had gotten a P14124 which took 5 minutes per frame with a completion time of 9 hours! 144,628 for a single WU!

5:48 for a 970. I think that the pie distribution will look a little bit different now the XZero450 got his passkey entered. I heard rumors about Norton planing to upgrade and suddenly I'm two places down. Great work team. Even that we couldn't save my wife that passed away Sunday to cancer we still have chance to help others.

So sorry for your loss!

Going to restart my idle 1080 this afternoon in her honor
