it'd be swell if somebody on the LTT team organized a benchmarking for the best cards PPD/W out of their fairly wide variety of stock (i'd mention somebody on said team but i'm not so bold)

indeed, one specific card of interest to test is that P106 mining 1060 thing

sad news - i'm going to have to put the jank-o-tron on hold due to covid19 shutting down retailers i was planning to scavenge for parts

also, the 295x2 is still overheating after 10 minutes of running full power

Just throw the rad out the window, OR, add a bigger rad, throw in a T in the line and refilling is actually quite easy.

i'm hesitant about cutting the line but yeah.. finding out what size tubing it is and then putting a capped T-piece on seems to be about the only way seeing as it won't back off of the barbs whatsoever (well, at least they're doing their job). disassembling the cold plate is the other option and i'd really rather not go there

Not with two of then you dont wanna anyway, cold plates that is

i am stuck for the better part of the day with this error on one of my PC:

Any ideas?

 

i have verified https://apps.foldingathome.org/serverstats and https://apps.foldingathome.org/psummary seems to be fine there.

This is normal, it will fix itself eventually. The Folding@home servers are having trouble receiving all the data.

Guys,

 

If you would like LTT to do more Folding stuff then make sure you watch the folding vid, comment, like, share. 

 

Hell why not watch it a second time! Let's get that viewer count up! Go guys, lets mobilise!

Just started folding. Hope I set up team right.

Just joined the forum, to join the folding team. The old rig is chugging along slowly (an old i5 with an Rx560 ) but if it wasn't doing anything anyway it might as well help. The newer rig (Ryzen3 2200 with RX 5700) should do a fair bit better. I'm still waiting on a passkey though, it has been a few hours. I take it I use the same passkey on both machines?

will continue folding anonymously until then

[Big_Col]

Thanks for the quick reply. Looking forward to contributing to the team.

Kinda cool to be able to actually help in some small way

I was only receiving work units for GPU as well, until i removed my CPU from the (advanced control/configure/slots ) list and added it back in.  On a separate system I couldn't the CPU to accept work orders until I changed from an odd number count (15/16 core) to an even number (14, 12, etc).  I don't know if that was directly the cause, but they sat doing nothing for hours regardless of pausing or any other intervention.

I have been waiting for a few hours for the main rig to fire up... tried pausing a few times but nope...still waiting for work order. Then I saw this post and tried it, BINGO! up and running on the cpu. GPU not being used though, might try removing and re-adding that too?

Welp, there go my plans of using a 2080 and a Pascal titan in the same waterloop. The terminals on the blocks are misaligned by mere millimeters..

 

It would have looked pretty slick tough. Guess I'll have to get a second 2080 now.

FAQ material right there up here 

[Michael McChesney]

When I first installed the client Sunday night, it seemed to be primarily using my GPU (RTX 2060) but then wasn't doing anything all day.  Finally, I tried to uninstall the client (intending to reinstall it) but the uninstall froze.  But after I rebooted, it started working so I didn't try to uninstall it (though I am not crazy about software that avoids being uninstalled, lol).  When I got up this morning, I rebooted again and this time was only using my CPU (i9-9900K).  But now it's idle waiting for more work I guess.  I also installed the client on an Asus prebuilt I bought at Best Buy in 2017.  It has an i7-7700 with integrated graphics.  Near as I can tell, the Asus hasn't done any folding, but it's hard to tell since the stats seem aggregated because I used the same identity.

 

Is it worth leaving the i7-7700 running or is that not just powerful enough without a discrete GPU?  Does anyone know LTT is coming with setting up their own folding@home server?  Thanks.

I just came on this forum 2 days ago specifically to assist with COVID-19. I only have my CPU running though at Light Power. I wish I had a spare computer to do this so I can put it up on max.
