LOL yeah, it's not the greatest. I borrowed a Kill a watt from my grandfather but haven't shut down my pc to use it yet

There are cheap UPS on market (~ 100$ / 6-700W which is a lot for a normal PC + monitor + modem/router) - @Costco they have Cyber Power  (1000 VA) and you are protected, also your power delivery will be much more "clean" plus other benefits

My PSU is 750W, plus I'm in Canada. Also a UPS isn't something I would ever cheap out on

According to stats.foldingathome.org my last work unit completed was 3/27, but my logs in advanced control show quite a few units completed, sent, and acknowledged since then.

 

Is this a known issue?

It's a known issue, I think it shows March 27th as the last WU completition for everyone now. Thankfully EOC exists, which does thankfully still shows information.

Here is your entry on EOC: https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=941268

Keep in mind that website updates every 3 hours, but is also dependent on F@H stats. Apparently F@H is experiencing some issues with the stats, so not everything may be present there.

Just looked at that UPS from Costco. That one has horrible reviews. I'd look at APC instead.

1. you psu is 750W but the efficiency is what ? can your system pull 750W ? ... I doubt that you need 750W I have a power hungry CPU and a power hungry GPU and still don't get close to 750W (more like ... high 5 / low 6) 

 

2. Is fine .. I just gave an example - I am sure you can buy from amazon

 

3. cheap in the sense - affordable, not cheaply made ... probably one of the best "consumer" based UPS's are APC .. so if you don;t want to pay 100$ go for double the price APC ones - I use both Cyber Power and APC since a few years now (4ish) in this house and I didn't had a issue 

[hydrochloric]

So it turns out once you take over the CPU fan control from Lenovo (which is of course not exposed even in the BIOS, they don't even report RPM) and just stick it on a Noctua LNA adapter...

 

 

Stupid leftover workstation problems...  It is a little noisier now, but if it's stable that's more important.  I may finally be approaching stability on all three rigs now.

Is it only specific Corsair PSUs that support seeing them in iCUE? I have a TX750m

yeah the ones that end in i but i think they have end of lifed them as well as cant find them anymore...

yeah icue is crap but i launch it to configure the pump and fans on the pump and the psu once the CLC goes out of warranty i will no longer use the software but since i have it its nice to see its stats. lol

The only reason I have iCue is cause I went CLC. Couldn't afford open loop.

Same here. I wanted an easy way to effectively cool a 9900K in an ITX case, the H100i worked for me

Do you have so often power outages in Murrica?

Here in central Europe we probably have one in 10 years... so no need for an ups for normal people.

some its mostly to protect my investment as we have spikes and brownouts etc. especially during our nice storms  and most of our power in my area is above ground with a lot o trees

Every week or so. We didn't have to rebuild a large portion of our country with newer tech after it was destroyed from war, though. Thinking at this point that would be cheaper than paying people to upgrade it tbh.

[MercuryFusion]

Often, not necessarily. Can vary by region. But for example, I live in an old home that I rent. So I am very wary of the wiring and since I rent the home, replacing the wiring is not a great idea. So I use a ups to help regulate flow to my important electronics. Is it REALLY needed, not necessarily. But do I sleep better leaving my expensive desktop on with it in place, yes.

Depends a lot on your location and service type.  Mine is underground, which is usually better.  Unfortunately it seems like I have 5-10 minute outages once every few months.  I only have one UPS though, and it runs my modem & router.  I just let the computers crash out ungracefully...

 

Since I moved to Michigan, my power stability has for sure been worse.  NY was more reliable, but I was in the country, not in a city.

There are plenty of thunderstorms in Ontario in the summer which can result in power blinking

yeah rebooting the computer.  it does this some times...its my all in on e 7775.  if i load the latest AMD drivers the card acts strage so i am thining i need to get dell to replace the MB on it.  (i think its still under warranty...

[dogwitch]

 atm i have the 2 main pc doing it. but wu are still a issue. and radeon whu..... ahaha never got a single one.

[Duffbro]

Whow the user base is still growing...i hope more and more people e.g. Youtubers will promote F@H.

I want to see 1 million active users.

How cool would that be to establish F@H as the new weapon in research!!!

Hopefully we all will find a solution against Covid-19.

F@H would get more money better Servers, Software ect. and way more people to work on the results.

 

Next target .... eliminate fxxxing Cancer.

Together we can make it happen!

 

I am so proud of this community and all of the scientists behind the scenes!!! You guys rock!

 

 

[rodarkone]

yeah - hopefully folks will not drop immediately once this "epidemic" is done ...
