I used to fold regularly, and I'm still 14th in the team, but I'm starting to lose a little faith and looking for some reassurance from fellow folders.
 
I guess my big question is; Why do Linus and Luke (basically) never refer to F@H/BOINC?
 
It's like they do a bazillion benchmarks when a new cpu/gpu comes out, but they don't even acknowledge distributed computing. I would have thought even non-folders would be more interested in how a new piece of hardware does in scientific computations than say, 7-zip or the nth Cinebench test.
 
I get that the company may well decide not to fold 24/7 with all of their amazing hardware as those kind of electric costs would hurt the company. But the fact they are not even mentioned suggests, to me, Linus + co fundamentally think it's a waste of time. Unless I am missing something?  

I shall chat with Slick and see what options there may be....

7. Any overclocks on either card?

Thanks Petem. Looks to be bang on what I am getting in Win10, so all things being equal, you might not see an improvement when you change OS.
 
I was hoping for more too, but I guess I'm just happy that it even folds at all. GPUGrid over on BOINC for instance doesn't support pascal at all. So we have that to be thankful for! I'm hoping driver updates will help PPD numbers in the future though
 
 

Mine peeled too, but within a few months of purchase. Contacted fitbit and they sent me a new one straight away, and let me keep the old one. Based on this I guessed it was a known issue...

Looks good Deh!
