My folding PC will be offline for a couple of days.:( It will be back online soon. :)
 
My PC folding/crunching PC is back online. :) Alas, so are the 941x WU's. :(
 
Running 3 GTX970's & a GTX980ti. Still have to run the heat to keep this Florida house @ 68 degrees F. I miss the space heaters that my 90nm 8800GTX were....
 
And I'm having to open windows....

belongs here more than pie and milestones, it is what it is, probably just trying to keep threads from derailing. Hate to watch but cant look away when that train crashes.:laugh: That being said 30k ppd isnt really worth it compared to the ppd you are getting with your current setup. But hey if you have an extra rig to throw it in then fold away.
 
Eh, excuse me? :oops:

Welpers.. I just recently started folding again for TPU last week starting with my GTX 1080. I now have a GTX 780 Classy and a HD 7950 in the folding mix and running good. The HD 7950 was a prize I won from the Spring WCG Challenge this past year. Took me awhile to get the ball rolling and get myself back into folding again.. but, I'm back in it. :rockout:

Looks like I'll be averaging just shy of 1.1mil PPD, even though it's showing right around 661k PPD as my current 24hr avg, but it's steadily climbing and should eventually balance out close to the 1.1mil PPD mark.

Good times.. :lovetpu:
 
Started the Hybrid mod Asus Turbo 1080 in folding. Took awhile because I had to make sure it didn't interrupt my wife's HTPC use.

I only see a small decline in PPD when I use You-tube and the likes. On a side note I tested turning HT off on my combined WCG/Foliding rig and that gave me 20-40K extra on my 1070. OK WCG went down a bit.
 
Went in to check my compy just now, it's been running wcg on 15 threads, f@h on 1... I had to do a double-take when I read the PPD, 1.6M, wth!!! o_O checking the folding stats on eoc it's had quite a few of those 11432 work units over the last couple of days. Anyone else getting some crazy numbers atm?

Looks like my 1080 jumped up about 100k yesterday :)

My PPD jumped about 100K as well thanks to some 11432 WU's.
 
+1 :cool:
 
Think it's overdue to lend my 1080ti to TPU's team for a bit since OCN has been given more than enough work

And we're off

Haven't posted in here in a long time! Coupla dumb questions... can you fold on an amd card like a 7850? I'm under linux, do I need all 3 debs listed for a full fahclient? (There's fahcontrol, fahclient and fahviewer.debs..) Just curious.
 
Yes you can. You only need fahcontrol, fahclient. FAHclient starts as a service, so that's different than Windows. I think that @agent00skid has run F@H on AMD GPU's.
 
Took a chance on eBay as it's been a while...

Yep, that will get you into the red.

There's one of those for sale on my local (albeit on the other side of town) CL for $850.

Yep, I got mine for $868 on eBay. It was opened and claimed to be "unused" which I doubted, but I couldn't find a speck of dust on the card or radiator, so maybe it was lightly tested or very carefully cleaned. The seller has been on eBay for 18 years and had pretty much 100% feedback, so I figured I would take the chance knowing that eBay would probably help if I got screwed. I tested it in my stock G3258 rig and it got 9475 in the Superposition benchmark at 4K with the overclock in the screenie (still have to test with games and dial it in, but it's probably close to the core limit already), and now it's in my main 5820K machine at home while my Strix 1080 is now in the G3258 machine.

I may have to move the Strix 1080 to one of my i7 machines as the G3258 is struggling to keep the card loaded while running a CCTV DVR viewer on the Intel graphics, but I need to address what appears to be a temperature problem with the Strix as it's hitting 80-85c at 2GHz with an open case and fan speed at 100%. I'll try to carefully put some MX-4 on it tonight and hope it's fixed after that, and I currently have the G3258 at 4.3/3.8 core/uncore to try and alleviate the CPU bottleneck.

EDIT: Temperature problem fixed, ASUS barely put any paste on my GPU and it was all dried out, so a blob of MX-4 dropped my temps over 30c.

EDIT2: Swapped the Strix 1080 into my 4.2GHz 2600K machine and am getting a healthy ~800K PPD now, and gave my AMP! Extreme 980 a much deserved cleaning before putting it in the G3258 machine since it gets a lot less PPD anyway. I might move the CCTV software onto my retired school 2-in-1 (Core M-5Y10c) since it doesn't do much, the battery had to be removed due to swelling and it can be plugged into the UPS.
