Folding of a WU from project 14541 completed problem-free.

In fact got another WU from the same project right afterwards:
 

It seems at the moment it's a 50/50 shot for me the card must be right at the edge of some limit. I am just not going to worry about it. I just wont to get as much useful work done as I can.

A few more lost points find the way home hope they all make it in the end.

Those are just builds I did for other people.

This here Ryzen 3 1200 + Dual RX580 box is my folding champ.

ignore the wago connector...has nothing to do with running 2 vcards off of 1 psu where it didn't have but the 1 8 pin PCIE and 2 6pin connectors at all...

so with the last 2 140s still en route it already has epic positive pressure just wait till it has 4 140 Maglev @ 1800k intake and 1 120 2k Exhaust and 1 standard Corsair 140 For exhaust...btw my room is getting hot i can feel the heat from 3 feet away lol...but im going for massive positive pressure to force a lot of air through the vcard slots.

 GO TEAM LTT!!!

over 300K WUs LUL

 

EDIT: Also LTT production pace is more than Default, Curecoin and PCMR team combined!

The psu is modular so long as you have the extra cables it would be fine, how noisy is that thing with the 7 main fans plus gpu/psu ones? It's one reason why my new computer is water cooled to keep the noise down more so than temps tho after all this I might disassemble my cpu water block and put on new thermal paste to try to lower temps even more, but I'll try disabling a few things first today.

My i5 has 4 fans plus psu and gpu ones and it's a noisy one to sit beside... where as my 3800x is silent in comparison even tho is has 3 of 4 fans hooked up.

well the Noctua 2k at full boar is bad...if its off or at 1500 its bearable but i have 2 systems supprising ly the mag lev fans are quieter than the rest of the computer yeah one day i may do a custom loop but that would need some masive radiators and another case...but i like how the CPU heatsink has like 1 MM to spare...so it alone forces alot of the air to the back. 

 

and it used to have the cables i tossed them 2 years ago by accident thinking i didnt have it any more to find it im my dads old inspiron 630 chassis 3 months ago when i was clearing the skeletons out of the closet. it was a "sleeper i built him with a intel i7-2600 to replace his Q6600 he had in it. and needed a real psu

Two important milestones:

 

Just crossed 25 million points!!!!

 

And also this!!!!!:

Saw some build photos so sharing mine here as well.

This is a build for my sister, but I haven't shipped it to her yet because of the situation.

and you needed to test it for stability under load too right?

 

well off for my weekly raid on costco

[raulinbonn]

Oops sorry mess up submitting previous comment.

This is a build I made for my sister, haven't shipped it to her yet because of the situation.
It's a Cougar QBX case, with an AMD 3600, and an Nvidia GTX 1070. Folding with the side panel on, just removed it for the photo.
The case is elevated a bit, and without the bottom filter in place. Adding the filter and/or removing that elevation will increase the GPU temperature quite a bit, by at least 5 degrees.

PS. You can see details about the "ultimate GPU sag solution" (that screw on the bottom right holding the GPU) in the following link:

I have a stack of 140mm Corsair Mags sitting here. I went to buy one and they only had a 4 pack at Micro Center

ignore @Zonkerhe cant catch you with 1 hr of down time lol maybe it will make him try harder which is what we need...hes slacking back there not even folding with his CPU as intel cant manage their heat issues...

Oh, no you di'int!

[Wouterrinos]

 

Ahhh, hmm, yes. So that's where all my points went 

I usually do 80k in 3 hours(if I actually get WU's) btw.

Yeah Amazon had a two pack I ordered two of them. They shipped one the other is on back order due to ship out tomorrow. Apparently Computer fans are essential items thank God

If you gave it a coat of black paint, it would look a lot less cludge

I had tested the CPU before with prime95 actually. There's no overclocking on this PC, everything completely stable.
The stock GPU has also shown to be completely stable under Cinebench R15, R20, Superposition, Furmark, Time Spy, Firestrike. Reduced the clocks on the GPU mostly to reduce thermals a bit.

@cbigfoot how i can reach this page ?

 

 

Many thanks in advance

Side panel on the Cougar QBX is not transparent, so there is no RGB or concern about internal looks on this build.
Reason to put that "ultimate GPU sag solution" was not aesthetics, but caring about shipping this PC and keeping that corner of the GPU complete immobilized.

What happened I am a bit confused please explain?

Random thought, will we get an event badge after the event ends? Would be nice to have a "I helped fight covid-19" badge on our profiles when this is all over
