I didn't think to try a disc...cpu stalled with usb a time or ten...

 

[TennesseeTony]

They keep getting new members. 3 to 5 yesterday (within 24 hours). The race with Tom's doesn't seem likely. Tom's wants no part of us it seems...(imo)

 

[TennesseeTony]

Still, looks to be another record year/month for us, so that's good!

We go from 20th in the world, to 19th in about 10 days, displacing Tekzilla. Then about the 1st week of January, we displace Tom's (again), moving into 18th. And that's as high as we can climb in the foreseeable future (year or two), as the next step up is...quite a step...

Well, I was doing pretty good, up to number 30 in the world, and was posed to get another 10 places in the next 6 months. But the curecoin groups posed as users will keep me where I am for quite some time now.

Better late than never, right? If you need another folder, I'm in! mike9o=MaskedAvenger

I added an RX 570 4GB card to F@H on my Ryzen rig, seems like 200,000PPD or so, so I should be up to half a mil a day. Will see about shuffling some boxes around here, so I can get my RX 470 4GB card online for F@H as well. Could maybe have a fourth box running too, but ... a little wary of tripping the breaker, I've done it twice recently, and three times since I moved in here.

I ordered a GTX 1080 to add to the fray.

Hi Mike,
You will be in from Friday ...

 

[petrusbroder]

OK, folks, nothing to see here ...
I have collected the stats, put them in the spread sheet, calculated Everything ... but I can not upload any pics, because my work lap top does not have the screen-capture-tool and I can not download anything... becuse I have not the admin rights on this computer. OK, it is a very secure machine but I can not do any screen capture.
There will be double stats tomorrow, when I am at home again ...

If it is a Windows computer, maybe it has C:\Windows\System32\SnippingTool.exe.

Totally off topic, but too good not to share with my buddies somehow. 8TB USB 3.0 external WD Red drives for $140! Original thread here. TODAY only, (US customers, sorry). limit 2

petrus, we all deeply appreciate your hard work and dedication!

I forget sometimes that working at Microcenter makes everything else look like a bad deal

 

[TennesseeTony]

Wow, nearly half a BILLION points already (both teams combined). Nice!

For anyone willing and able, this was a thing that happened today: https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/8/16750326/nvidia-titan-v-announced-specs-price-release-date 110 TFlops tensor per GPU.

Edit: Wait, I totally didn't forget that anandtech has a news section or anything.

Boom, nobody expects that, is it? It's like nvidia knows F@H race is on the run.

 

[StefanR5R]

$ 3,000.00? Sounds like made specially for starving DCers. (Not.)
OK, half rate FP64, that's something quite different from the current Titan.

I think that 4 1080TIs would beat the PPD of that easily. 5.3 million for 4 of my 5 right now. And that because you can buy 4 for the price of this one.

 

[StefanR5R]

So I am wondering what's up with my estimated PPD vs. actual stats. Well...

There's an issue with a couple CPU work servers not providing points right now. Supposedly when they fix the issue the points will be awarded. This goes back to Nov 22.

Right now, all four of my CPU slots are on one of the affected work servers.

Oh yeah, 2:1 DP is unique in that price range afaik. The card for the DCer that has everything.

From what I can see, the DP performance of one Titan V should be the equal about seven HD 7970 GPUs.

Here's a link to the status for all servers at Folding@Home.

 

[StefanR5R]

The problem is not with the servers, but with a firewall between the sites which are part of the F@H consortium. The firewall is not under control of the consortium, which partly explains why this issue is unfixed although known since late November.
