"iirc" meaning if you don't rc I'd still be folding but for an imaginary team?

yes.

But I just checked it, and was typing up an edit to say it was correct

The build up to this month has me looking at horrible things. I could sell most of my Folding Machine, update it and consume less power. (2x 1080s, 2070, 3070 ti) for something like a 4070ti. But then I wouldn't get to look at a machine with 4 graphics cards

Sell me your 3070 ti for cheap aha it will get used for folding

Thank you for the reply. I tried in a different browser (Chromium) and it worked. In my default browser (Firefox) the URL for the signup asks me to sign into a Google account.

 

Nov 1st can't come soon enough

Funny enough, I was using Firefox nightly and it worked!

I am going to have to put the blame on google for this one!

Yeah but it would probably go faster on Linux.  Its actually quite astonishing what the difference can be.

I know it's a rather small sample size, but apparently not? (P620 is a slightly higher clocked p600 with 4gb instead of 2gb)

It's been decided. Wife gets her 4080 sooner than we planned, but soon enough for it to get put to work for F@H and @TylerD321is getting a deal on a 3070 ti...

[Sequence211]

I will be happy to participate once again. 
maybe it is time to make a system upgrade. Maybe just temporary.

I do love seeing those gold event badges, not many of them around right now. 

[Gorgon]

I _MIGHT_ have just added a couple more 4070tis to the Fold. Had the boot NVMe drive fail on one of the rigs with 2 x 4070tis and BiFrost is having trouble recognizing more than 2 GPUs but I _THINK_ that's just due to using a Ryzen 3000-series CPU and it not liking the PCIe Gen 3 m.2 to PCIe3 x4 risers. Have to try a 2600x today to confirm that. Otherwise I'll have to run 3 additional Rigs rather than one.

 

@Mxyzptlk are you still running your Mining Frame and is it behaving with 3000 and 4000 NVidia GPUs?

[sazrocks]

We're gonna need some higher folding event badge tiers, haha.
