nope cards untouched and have been running undisturbed and without issue for 7-8h
And even if it were unstable OC why would so many of em fail at once?

All WU*s are uploaded to the same server IP

It looks like you've ended up with a GPU on FS00.  I remember reading that could cause problems somewhere.  I see it's happening to multiple slots in your case.  I had a similar problem a couple days ago and ultimately deleting my GPU slots and recreating them fixed it.

welp goodbye gpu on slot 0 i guess

hello perma asleep cpu slot!

That was hours ago for me.

If it weren't for that, I'd say power glitch which gave the card procs some funky power.

I have gotten quite a bit of WUs today, like at least 8x in Points value.

Hardware Fault on my end i believe.

For the following reasons:

The cores where all somewhere along the way to finished (not just starting out)

The first sign of doom came from clWaitForEvents which is the cpu waiting on the gpu to finish something if my memory serves me correctly

Hey guys, awesome to see everybody is going hard!

I am uploading at less then 1 Mbps. Anyone else getting slow upload speeds? (I download them at 10-15 Mbps and my internet connection is about 18 Mbps up)

In gaming they tend to fall between a 2060 Super (1.3-1.4MPPD) and a 2070 Super (1.5-1.9MPPD) so they should do better but there are issues with the AMD Drivers and the OpenCl support in GROMACS the software the F@H cores are built under.

How do you find the 20.x AMD drivers on Windows for compute?

 

They made some change after 19.11.3 where not all 4 compute groups are reported by the driver. Compute 2 is missing from task manager or HWiNFO. Not the cause, but any later driver with that bug has been unstable so far, at least for Vega cards. Sounds like Navi fairs better?

I just had to obsessively refresh for like 15 min to get one!  This was me

The LTT folding team has lost -8,431 people from previous week.

 

Looks like people only fold for a couple of days and leave....

whats the gestalt on safe GPU temps running all day?  I dont mean like super safe, i mean like borderline safe

My 2070 is over 90C.... 

 

so your better off asking someone else

if this is any consolation:

 

I knew nothing of folding until the video linus put up to be honest...always wondered what those badges were

 

My home PC is my gaming PC.  I prefer to be gaming as much as I can, and that is what it will go back to after the event is over.  However, I will be leaving my work PC on 24/7 365 to fold.  And I just upgraded its GPU, very significantly.  So a little something gained!

I am Ok i think at the moment...top card pushing 90, bottom card at 80.  Worried about longevity at 90+, but going to keep going...for GLORY!

I think you're looking at the reduction of the number of new active users over a certain period (a week?).

Active users only reduced by less than 4K from peak.

Did that and decided to split it up a bit. It worked.

 

 

[cbigfoot]

i can confirm my quad cores being idle to help the vcards is 100% working better than expected...

Less than 4k from peak = a shitload more than 2 weeks ago still

@Zberg my 2070 super was around 194 freedoms, but taking off the glass side panel dropped them to 140's... makes sense it was just blowing all the hot air into the glass... not the best heat dissipation...

Mmmm Shiny

I blame @Gorgon for making me feel bad about having an empty PCIe x16 slot. Now they are all populated.

[Inkertus]

Man you guys really aren't giving me a chance here are you?
