A great day for me, gained 55 spots to be in the top 150 (148) for the event, cracked 25 million total and top 1000 for the team.

With the competition wrapped remember...
 
Thank you for your folding! Make sure you have shut down any cloud servers you spun up to not get over billed In these hard financial times only keep folding if you can afford the electricity, no shame or judgement if you need to dial things back If you are going to keep folding, but want to keep an eye on electricity bill, GPUs are much more power efficient compared to CPUs  
Everyone here is awesome!  Good job and thanks again!
 

i posted this exact solution but I'll post again: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45227064/how-to-request-gpu-quota-increase-in-google-cloud

I believe you have to request a quota increase for the specific GPU you want.

I had a delta fan in my Athlon XP system on the heatsink which was some custom aluminum thing, First time i ever bought a non-stock heatsink/fan for a CPU 
 
Got it at FrozenCPU if anyone remembers them

There are some even smaller ones too, as small as 220.

Added a like and a troll " #teamltt 223518" reply too.  🙂

LMFAO, 'Mines bigger than yours ' Kinda deal... Interesting technique 

Gigabyte just threw in with PCMR, so I trolled their post with a #teamltt 223518.

For me I was averaging 700k per day before adding advanced flag, and now am averaging 1.4M ppd since... ~50% idle time.

I have not had an empty slot since adding the advanced flag.

Guys... Do you even know how many notifications I came back to? 
 
I had to deal with a..... issue.... 
 
Anyway I see leadeater didn't post the stats after he made the correction, currently the googlesheet is not playing ball so I'm just trying to fox that atm then will post the ranks asap 
 
 

Guys! Folding tshirt!

Yeah the 1700 to the 3700x is 40% lower scoring which I'm sure makes Intel jealous considering their piddly 10-15% generational increase up to that point look quaint.  Problem for AMD is maintaining that level of momentum.  We're eeking every IPC and clock extra we can out of silicon at this point and we're getting into physics f#@kery now to keep improving.

Luckily I got it on the 3700x instead of half the 1700 or this would take the full 24 hours...or close to.  For giggles I compared just under half (6/16) of my 3700x to my old toaster of a 4820k and it beats it by about a quarter more.  Amazing how far CPU architectures can come at times.  My 1700 is more than 2x the total performance, nearly the same single thread rating, and takes half the power.  Came out just under 4 years later.

It's probably related to Ping and such. but yeah, the Folding servers have really bad load balancing 

Click "configure"

 
EITHER:
Go to slots, click the one you want to get advanced WUs, click "edit"

 
Click add under "extra slot options":

 
Type these in:

 
 
 
OR- If you want ALL slots on that client to be advanced:

That makes me think clients have affinity to nearby servers and there's an overworked server near Ohio. I have a big enough sample size in my clusters to see the difference.

I live in Ohio...it is a black hole for work units. I had to switch all my clients to "advanced" to get a steady stream of work.
