I check on my main system for the first time today, and look at these beauties! I usually see it idle. Happy days!

Community, tell me if these seems like an accurate assessment and solution:

 

Came into work this AM, PC was off (another night of lost productivity, sigh).  Normal LED's off.  Power button would not turn on PC until I unplugged PSU and replugged.  

 

Ran FAH for an hour (full GPU/CPU), but turned off, same thing, normal LED's that stay lit were off, and power button would not turn on, until I unplugged PSU and replugged.

 

I personally think the PSU rating/efficiency isnt high enough for whats in it.  2700x/2080ti.  On paper it seems the inwin PSU should cover it, but I suspect it just truly isnt "650 gold" (old inwin a1 used to be bronze rated, but this one is supposed to be gold, but who knows).  

 

Anyways, what I did was stop CPU WU's for now and just doing GPU WU's, and lowered the power to 96% and the clocks slightly.  It seems stable so far...

 

To those who know more than me, does this seem like the right diagnosis/solution? What would you do in this scenario? (of course other than getting a new PSU, which will be my next step)

 

Thanks in advance.

Our comparatively meteoric rise beginning was their last good day and in the 7 day time frame after that we went up 2.5x as much as they did.  We must have poached a good number of their members.

Sounds like PSU issue indeed. Either it's overloaded or overheating. Check filters and dust. 

Or you have other stability issues. Certainly not folding on CPU is a good solution since it removes a high draw, low efficiency component out of the equation...

PSU rating/efficiency has noting to do with it and 650W is should be enough for 2080 Ti and 2700x.

I'd say that CPU was unstable (happens on my 1700x as well), so you better continue without CPU and earn 24/7 on GPU than have problems like these...

If you actually care about Power Usage, I'd recommend you to go between 75% and 95% on PL for 2080 Ti and leave it on stock or OC by something small (up to +50 CC and +100 MC if card is not factory OC-ed).

Dunno if it's gonna be relevant or not - but I had this problem with my main system for a while - all to discover it was due to the USB 3.0 controller.  Unplugged it from the mobo and haven't had a problem since.  Also confirmed later on when I tried to reconnect it thinking all was well.

two fans still weren't enough hit 92C on temp ended up having to take side panel and front panel off also, now under load sitting at 72C might need better flow in the case... regardless its been swamping me most of the day today pretty darn constant making that 2080TI and 3950X work for it!!

This may be it. Although I've never had this sort of crashing happening with this OC while rendering video or anything which I've done on this PC for years.

As @GOTSpectrum said even a normally stable overclock can cause small error in FAH that can get a WU to fail, unless you have tested and checked the logs over a longer period of time I would turn back or off the overclock whenever folding.

Great advice except the Windows native TELNET client is broken and does not understand Unix CR/LF translations

Install WSL.. optional package with Windows. It is native unix and works just fine.

Agreed 650W should be just fine for the combo, was just wondering if inwin is truly putting a janky PSU in there and calling it something its not, but I am just grasping at reasons.  Ill def be continuing on GPU only until the event is over then playing around to see how to keep it from happening.

 

Appreciate the responses all.

If I'm looking at the right pictures no wonder it was overheating.  That thing is a glass box! Where's the ventilation?

Sorry, I posted the wrong IP's. These are the one's being blocked:


185.216.140.34
185.175.93.11

 

Yeah, as far as I can tell these don't seem to be used by FAH. However I can't be 100% certain, at least one of them seems to be running some sort of completely unrelated website, the other one doesn't have anything on it to support the conjecture that it's running for the FAH network. To me these seem to be unrelated IP blocks. Neither of them is mentioned on the FAH server list or their collection servers.

 

In conclusion it's highly unlikely that these have anything to do with FAH, I would guess that the problem is somewhere else.

there are vents all along both sides about 1.5 inches a piece, its not perfect but i never intended to be folding with it when i got this it was for show lol  now however since i will likely be folding from now on I might look into a new case once the event is over

It's on the side, but Deepcool makes the same decision every RGB and glass case marking team does and puts the fans too close to the glass making the side vents essentialy useless. 

 

Try moving the fans to the inside of the case frame (Still intaking air), that should at least get you cooler temps (Probably not 72ºC cool though).

Yup that's one of those cases where the front fans are for decoration only... side vents WAY too small and fans too close to the glass.

Remove just the front glass panel and you should be good.
