Guys, I have this really awkward issue with Foldin@home... So I have 2 PC's one "old" one "new", my new one doesn't seem to END with work unit after work unit. But for my old computer there's apparently no work units available ever, even though it keeps assigning new units to my "new" PC.
For specs:
"New" PC:
9600KF
2x16 GB (32GB) of ram @2667 mhz (actually 3000 but bottleneck)
GTX 1660
etc.
Old PC:
AMD A8-3870K @3.3ghz (overclocked from 3 to 3.3)
4x 4GB (16GB) of DDR3 @1600
Sapphire HD 6870 1GB
etc.
When going through the error logs it's mainly "no WU available". But I find it pretty interesting considering my new pc on the same network keeps having new work units assigned to it.
Could anyone explain to me what's going on? Are higher end PC's specifically handed more workloads and are there just no things available for older units?
Or is it something specific about the fact that of course AMD doesn't work with cuda cores and that my card is so old that it just doesn't know it's AMD? (it does show something like (MINUS) -2384 cuda cores in the specs page on the program)
If someone could explain this specific phenomenon to me I'd be really happy. Because we're all up for running up the electricity costs but... if there's now WU's being assigned I might as well not leave it up the entire night and only have it be turned on so my little brother can play fortnite
