15th Annual Folding@Home Holiday Season Race: Mark's Marauders win!

Sorry Mauraders. My network broke a couple of days ago leaving me dead in the water not able to download or upload. December has been rough--a trashed 2070 and now this. Someone pick up the slack! And happy New Year to all.

15th Annual Folding@Home Holiday Season Race: Mark's Marauders win!

Is there a thread for what to do when you fry a card (and maybe a PSU) with an (apparently) incorrectly wired power connector? (correctly labeled and keyed!) :oops::mad: @Markfw , do I remember that somewhere around here recently you mentioned that you had older generation hardware that you are...

RTX 30 shortages

From the folding.lar.systems link cited by Endgame124: "Each GPUs PPD value is based on samples from real users folding work units collected from a variety of user hardware configurations and different folding@home projects available daily to create average performance baselines." Fair enough...

15th Annual Folding@Home Holiday Season Race: Mark's Marauders win!

Go Marauders! Also, my cable modem has apparently decided to maraud, leaving me with sporadic internet access. Hopefully, it is resolved. :rolleyes:

If we could get ~20million PPD worth of more competitors, we could do Mark and Pokey vs Everyone Else...

15th Annual Folding@Home Holiday Season Race: Mark's Marauders win!

Peace to you all. I don't come around here enough. I'm in. I have no idea how to quantify my PPD, though. According to the chart, it should be ~4.65 million. For the last month, it has been in the 7's million. Obviously, WU vary the PPD, but that is a huge disparity. 4 GPU's: 1070, 1070ti...

"I guess my point is this could be a big time sink with no guarantee of success." I hear that loud and clear. Thank you.

Linux Mint 20 and FAH

Thank you both. Stefan actually helped me out with the power limit settings some months ago. That works great, but I would still like a little more control on the second GPU. biodoc, I will try the commands you that you mention. I'm pretty sure that I have already, but it is possible that I...

Linux Mint 20 and FAH

The GPU's are both nvidia--a 1070ti and a 2070, in case that matters.

Linux Mint 20 and FAH

Peace to you all. This is especially @StefanR5R or anyone else (biodoc) who are Linux wizzes. I have a Mint box dedicated to F@H. It has two GPU's (potentially, three). They both fold with no difficulties, however, I can only get 'coolbits' active for one of them--not both. I have tried a...

How To Ubuntu & F@H: Can't get GPU to fold...

There are some really helpful instructions for Mint (Ubuntu based, I think) in the environment of p. 7 (specifically post #156) of the "Anandtech vs Tom's Hardware Folding@Home Coronavirus Race thread". Otherwise, biodoc, StefanR5R and others are very knowledgeable and helpful regarding Linux.

That post got weirdly mangled. I hope you can sort it out.

Anandtech vs Tom's Hardware Folding@Home Coronavirus Race thread

Hello all. I'm not sure it's possible to hijack this tread as it's been all over the place... The WU drought has got me to spend some time trying Linux (Mint) again. There was some really useful advice in the vicinity of pg. 7, but I could use a little more. I have a rock solid retired Dell...

Folding@Home bigadv EOL Anniversary Challenge on Jan. 31st - Feb. 7th: The race has finished.

Thank you everyone. Although I find the whole idea fascinating and the ability to contribute fulfilling, I have fairly limited time to mess around with DC stuff. I have only been involved with F@H to honor a friend that died of cancer at 55. So, my prime directive is to get a stable...

Hi! I didn't even know you all existed. I was searching for some information and blundered my way here. Sure. Sign me up. I don't know really what to expect for PPD. The delta from different work units has been surprising.
