LTT Folding Team's Emergency Response to Covid-19

Go to solution Solved by GOTSpectrum,

This event has ended and I recommend you guys head over to the Folding Community Board for any general folding conversation. 

 

 

Last time I was with a FX-8350 and a GTX1060, now it time to test a R5 3600 and a RTX2070

Also I should lower the heating at home.

First time folder here, how do I know that my computer is folding for COVID 19?  I dont see a preference for that, just like "any disease", "cancer" etc.

If you're folding for "any disease" you are good. COVID-19 is set to have the highest priority, so any of those jobs that are distributed take priority. The only issue right now is their servers are massively overloaded due to the overwhelming support.

 

Just keep the program running and you'll get some work units eventually.

 

Thank you for your contribution!

Just make sure it is on Any and it will go to CoViD-19 when a WU is available.

All of them !

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

Thank you for your help.  Also, should I only have my GPU running or should I run both slots for CPU and GPU?  I've read earlier that people are saying to just run the GPU, is that true?

We have just passed 1000 sigh-ups, but theres room for many more so keep signing up and keep spreading the word!

 

Discord, facebook, youtube comments, reddit and twiiter are just some of the places you can advertise Team LTT for folding!

If you have a decent CPU it is worth it. It is advised to adjust the number of threads manually so keep some free for the OS and to manage the GPU

I would love to send you some Victoria (Mexico) or Shiner Bock (Texas), but shipping to the UK is too expensive

The GPU has a factory OC on it, but nothing more. It would literally burn if it was pushed even harder.

 

Windows update and geforce experience ran yesterday, tho I never updated the bios.

right.... updating the bios is a good idea anyway, but most likely not connected to your problems.

Is there maybe something else running that uses OpenCL?

FOLDING MONTH 2021! GOGOGO and save on some heating costs 🙂

A news station in Virginia is warning people to not drink bleach...

 

Warning labels exist for these reasons...

It seems to me that the public reaction is much worse then the human malware.

 

Everyone needs to remain calm and practice good hygiene.  Maybe take some vitamins and stay away from crowds.  No need for anything drastic.

Long time lurker of LTT.

 

I just signed up.  For this forum and for Folding @ Home.

 

I have a home server with VMware.  I am going to get Folding @ Home set up inside its own VM to contribute to this goal 24/7.

 

I will have it all set up Monday or Tuesday next week.

 

The server does not have a GPU.  I am not sure how effective it will be.  It is an experiment.  I have not decided yet how many CPU cores I will let it use.

 

Thanks for the motivation LTT.

I'm just going to stay home and warm my hands over the exhaust heat from folding. 😆

There shouldn't be anything. I restarted windows and did nothing except for opening F@H.

But if it's not a common issue with an easy fix it's not a problem. That is my old gaming rig at my parents place and I'm gonna get my new PC running tomorrow, so I'm gonna get those 500k points easy. Also the CPU is running fine so it's still contributing^^
