Hates himself for this simple trick 

Spoiler

Looked for errors in the log and found I should perhaps update my drivers to let my cards use CUDA again...

Quick question about the dark mode Chrome folding extension: It seems to me that my second GPU slot always is in the state of "Not enough data samples collected to show performance comparison yet." I have a GTX 950 in the first slot and a GTX 1050 Ti in the second slot. The 950 shows PPD average and I think it also submits stats to folding.lar.systems, but I've never seen the 1050 Ti have a green average line in its graph. Has anyone else seen this too, or is your second slot showing normally?

I've seen that when I enabled the APU vega graphics on some Ryzen CPUs, with slot 1 being the CPU cores.  I thought it was probably saying that correctly though in that case.  Maybe not.  @LAR_Systems, any thoughts?  Mine isn't running anymore as I sold it, but maybe @gunnarrecan get you some logs to debug if it isn't known.

I would need to see a screen shot of the extension window to get the card WU and project information needed to see what's up.

It's possible that there is something going on, or that you're getting new project WUs that don't have enough data for the cards yet.

Hey guys, I woke up from my grave. Started my server up with what's left of my GPU collection, which at this point is just a 2070 Super. First WU since feb 2020

Thanks, I'll make a screenshot if I see a project which has data for the 1050 Ti listed on the database. My logs show that I've completed 17 WUs from project 17257 on the 1050 Ti in the second slot, all with the chrome extension running. I don't see that project listed in the database. Can you check if my samples even were uploaded?

 

Edit: "GeForce GTX 1050 Ti" is grey and not hyperlinked.

Edit2: My card identifies as "GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti]  2138" with two spaces between "]" and "2138", because that's how it's listed in GPUs.txt. Is that extra space creating problems? I could ask the FAH people to fix it?

You're better off using the thread for the extension 

 

@leadeater @TVwazhere @Spotty could one of you please pin the thread for the above mentioned extension 

[MultiGamerClub]

Havent folded for a very long time, is it hard getting into?

 

Currently have a server just running beside my tv.

Could probably set it to fold some 20 or 30%, to not annoy the dog or myself when i sleep

Nope, it's real easy to set up

I just ran through and did a quick fix on some links that were broken. If you notice anything that's needs addressed let me know. I want to keep this as up to date as possible. Shoot ma pm or something.

Welp, time to make @LAR_Systems chuckle.  In my never ending quest to fill his database with useless info...I'm aiming all 8 watts (at the wall!) of incredible Pentium N3700 folding power at it!  LOL

 

Little fanless micro system that will become my new router once I finish the folding burn in test.  :)

whoa be carefull now, you sure the wiring in your house can handle such loads?

We're moving at breakneck speeds here!

...all estimated 2100 PPD of it (after about a day of processing on the first WU)  LOL

I have a Raspberry Pi 400 coming in. Since there is an official Linux ARM client, I'm going to give folding on it a try. I don't see any ARM CPUs in the database yet. The Mac M1 CPUs are as of yet folding emulated as Intel CPUs.

Got this meme locked and loaded for next week.

 

 

Folding has made me realize I have a very unhealthy obsession with "number go up". Here I am contemplating buying more cards in a chip shortage so number can go up more faster...

Yeah, I wish I had the money to run my hardware right now.... I hate seeing my world ranking slowly drop

Not that I'd know anything about this but it sounds like you need to get with the Program and start working on these Twelve Steps:

1. We admitted we were powerless over Folding — that our rigs had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of EoC as we understood Them.
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of our Hardware.
5. Admitted to EoC, ourselves, and to another Folder the exact nature of our Hardware's deficiencies.
6. Were entirely ready to have EoC remove all these defects of hardware.
7. Humbly asked Them to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all Folders we had surpassed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. Made direct amends to such Folders wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or their PPD.
10. Continued to take Hardware inventories and when we were deficient promptly admitted it.
11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with EoC as we understood Them, praying only for knowledge of Their will for us and the power to carry that out.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to Folders, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

That meme was generated by @TVwazhere  I can't get any credit for it.

This is now folding on the four ARM cores making 3686 PPD on project 16995. I'm guessing a power draw of about 7-8 watts. The client says the CPU is "unkown", which means the Chrome extension won't recognize it even if ARM CPUs were in there.
