@LAR_SystemsIs part of it still not quite working? The V8 LAR client isn't showing me correct information at all.

Depends on what version of 8 you are running.

 

F@H 8.5 beta requires much re-programming on my part, so if you have upgraded to their latest, I'm not there yet.

 

Mine is only compatible with their original V8.1 beta.

 

I'm working on it though... trying to get something stable up asap.

New version selector for the web client has been installed and a "stable?" RC for 8.3.5 is now posted for you and everyone else to break lol

 

You can give my first crack at 8.3.5 RC at the new version selection page https://webclient.lar.systems/

So... I used 9,640kWh electricity last year... Damn

 

At 0.32GBP/kWh that's... A lot

Here, let me help you out.

9,640kWh x 0.32GBP/kWh = 3,084.8GBP per year/365=8.45GBP per day.

It took a while, but my F@H box is finally operational again!

 

Tally of stuff i had to replace:

- CPU (7742 died, currently back using the 7552)

- Motherboard (asrock ROMED8-2T to replace the Supermicro H11SSL-i)

- RAM (128GB DDR4 3200 to replace 256GB DDR4 3200 that died)

- Lots of new fittings

- Lots of new tube

- New 4070Ti waterblock (managed to save 1, the other is dead)

- New radiator since the old one was impossible to clean

Final cost, well over 1800 euros!

 

If anything, i think i learned my lesson using loop cleaning fluids. I'm still waiting on delivery of the second 4070Ti waterblock which is why only 2 GPUs are in the picture now.

Wow - That is an expensive lesson. Glad your back up and running.

Congratulations @Shlouski Top 100!

That's why I had to quit folding. At least when mining ETH was profitable I could offset the power costs in theory but now...it's just not in my budget for the foreseeable future.

[RollinLower]

i'm getting a lot of these:


but i can reach that collection server just fine. Any guesses as to what is going on here?

F@H is never smooth sailing is it?

The server may be reachable but it may be out of disk space or the collection process has hung - typical long weekend stuff - likely have to wait until Tuesday for it to be fixed - check the server status

One of the reasons that while I often fold, I only go all out for folding month when it just offsets other heating costs so isn't as bad as the power numbers would make it look.  We were at 42¢ plus delivery charges for a while, but when it meant I wasn't using as much fuel oil that was also at record highs, it was ok enough to bang at it for science and home heating anyway.  Be smart about efficiency when not in heating season, and it really isn't that bad.

Our electricity is cheap but our gas heat is even cheaper. That'll change, when our furnace needs replacement I intend on going heat pump. They're efficient and inexpensive enough now that replacing both the aging AC and furnace with one makes sense. Add some resistive strips for make up heat for the bad cold times and I'll probably come out at the same or less than gas but it'll be quieter in the house and way more energy efficient, bonus most of my electric comes from non carbon sources.

so any of our folders getting a framework 16? im batch 8 and just got my prep for charges email!!!

Woo Hoo - Top 50!

I would love to get one, but alas, it's not in the cards. The form factor, modularity, and general specs are exactly what I want in a laptop but doesn't make sense financially. You'll have to keep us up to date with what you think about it.

Congrats, Gorgon! That's awesome. I've been hovering around the 117-120 mark for months, but steadily working towards my mythic badge. Just another couple months...

 

and then I look at those 24h totals of yours  I'm glad you're on our  team!  Keep up the good work.

I just realized I passed my 4y anniversary about a week and a half ago! Four years straight of knowing you halfwits with maybe a week total of no WU completed? Nice to work with y'alls!

My linux distribution finally released drivers compatible with the 4070ti Super! I run from 8PM-8AM when temperatures go down so I don't have to deal with the heat in my small space. Moving from 2x2060s brought me from ~4.5M PPD at a combined 290W to ~8.5M PPD at 185W in those 12 hours. Pretty nice to reduce power consumption by over a third and nearly double my output, wasn't expecting that based on the PPD rank database! Wish I could send data samples to it from a headless system.



See you in June, @cbigfoot!

You can report folding stats of a headless from a... nonheadless (headful??) to the database. @Gorgon has a HOWTO written up for v7.x clients:

Things to watch out for: Tunnelling this way will credit any CPU slots as the CPU of the headful, as well as the OS of the headful. GPU performance stats are not affected.

 

v8.x beta clients are natively supported (also in beta) by the database.

 

Also, how are you going to retain the same heating capacity of your home? YOU GOTTA GET ANOTHER SUPER!!

i need to get folding again but not set up right now to do so...

 

good news is my credit card has been charged for my new framework. so should have it next week.
