Folding Month 2019 - Help Medical Research with your PC!

[RichardR]

Main rig:

Xeon W-2155 CPU 10 cores @ 3.30GHz & Quadro P4000.

 

Hoping to get folding on my ageing media server soon also!

So I just set up everything and it even tells me I'm on the team - at least on the client. The stats website sais "not found" and the team page also does not list my user name. Is there a delay between sign up and actually getting a stats profile?

When you first start folding you have to complete one WU to get points and a profile on the sites.

Alright, that makes sense. I can see my CPU chugging along, but the GPU is kind of "dead" (only 13% usage, even on "full power" mode). Is there a setting I'm missing? Also, do the Work units stop when I just shut down, or do I need to explicitly hit "stop folding" beforehand?

Task Manager only shows 3d use not computation, you can change it and select CUDA

 

Or use MSI afterburner

I would recommend hitting “pause” before you shut down just to make sure that noting is terminated uncleanly.

I guess I gotta get my 40 core server up and running to do some folding

Finally got some OK photos of the Planet Smasher now that it's been moved to the bedroom for the month.

i signed up a few days ago but didnt have a pic to add, now i do. how can i add a pic to it?

I'd imagine just post one in this thread.

[LaserLight]

Happy to be helping out.  Really hoping I can win one of those Fractal cases.  My Corsair 450D is definitely a bit dated

[ToastyHere]

Is there a way to see if we entered the competition? I think I already submitted everything but I cant quite remember actually doing it

[jib9001]

Here's my main rig:

Ryzen 7 2700

16GB Corsair Vengeance 3000Mhz DDR4

GeForce RTX 2070

 

My secondary rig(Not Pictured):

i7 4770k

16GB G.Skill Ballistix 1600Mhz DDR3

Radeon R9 Nano

 

Will post more pics of more folding computers as I get them set up

[mcpingvin]

Here's mine, then. 7700k and EVGA GTX1080 SLI watercooled. Rest is in my profile

 

[justpoet]

Clean rig for me, no rainbow RGB puke.  Unfortunately, just an APU though.

[Kiyometa]

Anyone know why on Extreme overclocking forum website, my stats are shown as 0 for the last year or so. I've been folding in the interim on and off.

Can you link your profile on EOC?

Check your folding client configuration. It may be folding anonymously.

I am folding but forgot to register for the contest.

Hi, I signed up for the prize contest, but in the Google Forms signing page I entered my folding stats on stats.foldingathome.org instead of folding.extremeoverclocking.com as it is in the example, which I found only after submitting the form. Will I be still eligible to win? Can I change it somewhere without creating new entry? Thanks

That would be dope for crunching in the next BOINC Pent in 2020.

 

Since folks showing their rigs.  Two of them.  Have yet to get the third one up and going.

The big main one is a 1950X with 32GB 3200MHz RAM and a 1080Ti FTW3 (and a few NVMes, big TB HDDs, and a few SSDs).

The 2nd one beside it is a 1900X with 16GB 3200MHz RAM and a GTX960 FTW and GTX1070 Hybrid.

15 Billion points for the month!!

 

[straight_stewie]

It's not much, but it's been stable over the years, except for that one DIMM that failed and I haven't replaced yet.

 

[straight_stewie]

I need to make an update to my entry. I'm unsure what the best way to do that is. I entered with my old extreme overclocking FAH account (superstewie), but, per the contest rules, I've changed my FAH username to match mine here.

What do I need to do to fix this?
