this is piracy and discussing it is against the forum rules. 

i've specified Cancer, If i'm missing those unspecified WU's i guess that could be the cause indeed. 

Have you set your cause to Alzheimer's or something else? I'm still seeing lower aggregate PPD these days from about 125-127Mppd down to 118-123MPPD but I'm currently just running "Any" for my Cause preference. There seem to be a glut of poorly yielding p12296-7 & p14951 "Unspecified" projects currently.

Still seeing 40+, i dont think this is a couple unicorns at this point?

I do not think I have been seeing any of those WU 🤣

A belated Welcome to Team LTT then!
 
For future reference the easiest way is to just click on your Folding Legend Badge here which is linked to your EoC Stats page 🙂
 
Perhaps you had to change your username in the past or get a new PassKey which, I believe, would give you a different ID on the EoC Stats page.
 
Here is your Stats Page at F@H which shows the other Teams you've folded on using your current username but, unfortunately, does not show the start date.
 
I believe Jason@EoC also prunes the members from Teams if they've been inactive for a while to keep things a bit more manageable.

personally i also used a 2680V4 for gaming once, but performance wise it's definitely not the best. i agree with the post above that you should be looking for high clockspeed over high corecount.

A Xeon E5-1650 v4, E5-1680 v4, or E5-2667 v4 would get you some of the highest clock speeds on 6 or 8 cores.
 
There are some CPUs with much higher core counts, but they have much lower top speeds in order to stay in a reasonable power and TDP budget. Those three CPUs are the best performance per thread VS thread count balance I found from tinkering with servers and workstations of that era.
 
Whatever you get, populate at least four DIMMs so you can take advantage of quad-channel memory. Old registered ECC server memory is pretty cheap.

It took a while, but my F@H box is finally operational again!
 
Tally of stuff i had to replace:
- CPU (7742 died, currently back using the 7552)
- Motherboard (asrock ROMED8-2T to replace the Supermicro H11SSL-i)
- RAM (128GB DDR4 3200 to replace 256GB DDR4 3200 that died)
- Lots of new fittings
- Lots of new tube
- New 4070Ti waterblock (managed to save 1, the other is dead)
- New radiator since the old one was impossible to clean
Final cost, well over 1800 euros!
 
If anything, i think i learned my lesson using loop cleaning fluids. I'm still waiting on delivery of the second 4070Ti waterblock which is why only 2 GPUs are in the picture now.
 
 
 

The Frame is a bit special cause thin and the desire for not having a separate power cable to the display... but it seems they've changed a couple of years ago to mostly having the PSU in the box indeed, probably as things get thinner.
 
Mine's this little thing that just does I/O:

 
Previous was this big thing, but the PSU was also in the TV (had to replace it...)
 

 
Seems the latter is what OP has... Maybe clarify that @SimplyMoron, and were the replacements you got identical?

The server may be reachable but it may be out of disk space or the collection process has hung - typical long weekend stuff - likely have to wait until Tuesday for it to be fixed - check the server status

Congratulations @Shlouski Top 100!

RIP.
 
Wow - That is an expensive lesson. Glad your back up and running.

I didn't want to know 😭

Yeah, I was away from home for a week so of course that's when a UPS died in my rack because hardware always knows when I'm gone.
 
Back up as of yesterday, almost all services restored.

Welp, its been a couple days of cleaning but I'm finally starting to see some progress!

 
Too bad for the EK block, which has most of the nickel plating either removed or damaged at this point. The alphacool blocks with their chrome plating took ultrasonic cleaning without issues!
 

i'm starting to backpedal a bit here, on the official images those pads are unpopulated aswell:

if its a new part just RMA it, you can easily spot on the solder pads that a component used to be there but is now missing.

That is ABSOLUTELY a missing surface mount component. RMA immediately.
