What is folding?

outer solar Dec 1, 2018, 1:54 PM

#

@rich depot Folding@Home is a project created by the Stanford University that uses computer power to contribute to disease research such as cancer

How it works is that someone like you can download the Folding client and configure your CPU and GPU to conduct what are known as 'work units', sets of homework that your PC does that will directly contribute to the SU's efforts in research

rich depot Dec 1, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

does it require internet connection after you've downloaded it?

outer solar Dec 1, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

In my experience, I fold using my GPU only (GTX 1060) and it gets assigned a work unit that can be done within 3-6 hours, and will earn me points towards my EOC and Folding profiles, at the cost of having my GPU running 100% for the duration of the WU

#

As far as I'm aware, you don't need a stable internet connection during the folding due to the nature of how work units download before it starts doing its thing, once it's done, your GPU uploads its WU to the SU's database and that's when you need an internet connection

#

I leave my PC on when I go to work to fold when I'm away and so it can complete its WUs when I'm away, it uses hella GPU power and consumes a lot of electricity which is why I eventually stopped

rich depot Dec 1, 2018, 2:51 PM

#

@outer solar 'the folding event is never over in our hearts' that should be our slogan next year

green yarrow Dec 1, 2018, 6:55 PM

wonder how much the teams folding power will reduce over the next couple days.
I am still folding 100& for a few more days.

@rich depot Yea i expect at least that.

rich depot Dec 2, 2018, 9:03 AM

Ok, i see you reduced your folding power a lot since the end of november 😄

rich depot Dec 2, 2018, 12:02 PM

Yeah, A friend lent me some hardware

My hardware will make me around 1.2M PPD. I am only GPU folding though

rich depot Dec 2, 2018, 6:12 PM

This is the folding channel, plus a profitable folding rig isnt really feasable for almost everyone

outer solar Dec 2, 2018, 6:22 PM

I'm dreading seeing the electricity bill

green yarrow Dec 2, 2018, 7:01 PM

my bill will be double this month i guess. i will see it in a couple months time

I am shutting one of my machines down from next WU

stuck bramble Dec 3, 2018, 2:03 PM

#

😂

knotty oar Dec 3, 2018, 2:04 PM

#

@fierce steppe Regular RTX didn't improve much, since ray tracing is irrelevant to folding, and that's what justified most of the price increase. The only thing that mattered was the overall specs. We'll probably see a small improvement over the 2080 but not even close to justifying the cost.

#

It's a similar issue to how the RTX cards are useless for crypto mining, unless you somehow got the best discount on the goddamn planet

fierce steppe Dec 3, 2018, 2:07 PM

#

@knotty oar I thought the RTX series of cards performed really well in Folding.
Isn't the 2080ti around 2.4m PPD? That's almost double the performance of the 1080ti.

#

But yeah, the 2080ti and Titan RTX both use the TU-102 die (apparently) so there likely won't be significant gains

rich depot Dec 3, 2018, 3:32 PM

#

Yeah, the RTX cards are beasts at folding

outer solar Dec 3, 2018, 4:38 PM

#

I'm curious as to what BOINC is

warm plaza Dec 3, 2018, 4:48 PM

#

Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing

#

I think

#

essentially it's a tool/setup that lets you do compute for a vast array of projects, not just folding like FAH

#

Originally written for SETI@Home but now used by many projects.

proven marlin Dec 3, 2018, 5:21 PM

#

The issue is the price of rtx. At least I recall going from Kepler to Maxwell the gains in folding was nuts considering the price was a steal for the bump. Still remember my gtx960 out doing my old OG Titan in F@H

#

Kind of the reason Pascal was okish to me, but damn this rtx is a big meh to me

@pseudo abyss the XOC stats and overtake predictions take a while to update. I think they're based off the daily averages. At the moment the LTT daily average is still really high (215m points per day) since it's still calculating the average off what we were doing during the event. Really we're down to about half that, 110m PPD at the moment.

It's basing the 1 month to overtake the next team off a gain of 150-200m PPDs from when we were doing over 200m PPD average. Once the averages update the gain we have on them will drop significantly and the time it will take to catch the next team will rise.

The next team is 5bill points ahead, earning on average 60m PPD.
At LTTs current 110m PPD (50m gain) it will take us over 3 months to catch them.

#

Though Taiwan Team is only 6 billion points ahead of LTT, but they're only doing about 17m PPDs so with LTT earning 110m PPD we will be gaining almost 93m PPD per day and will catch them in about 2 months at current rate.

#

(Taiwan Team is in 10th at the moment, but PC Gamers Hardware who is in 11th will probably overtake them in a month or so)

You fail to notice that the RTX cards brought ray tracing to consumer cards, which is a technology that is very early in development

pseudo abyss Dec 10, 2018, 8:27 PM

#

So what?

#

its been so long since 1080 TI came out

#

and 2080 and 1080 TI is in games almost the same peformance

#

Without RT

#

So rn as there is basically 0 RT games

#

you are paying more for the same peformace

#

I personally dont care about RT at all before it can be 60 fps and look better than it does now in a card that costs that much

#

if you ask me, for gaming, 2080 and 2080 TI is litterally a big waste of money

#

For other stuff i dont know

outer solar Dec 10, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

GTX 1080 Ti, the older card, retails for £400 now, RTX 2080 Ti, the newer card with a new technology, retails for £800 now
The RTX 1080 Ti introduces ray-tracing to the mainstream, a new technology, compared to the GTX 1080 Ti, which had nominal performance gain over its predecessor the 980 Ti
Through the laws of capitalism and economics, the newer product will always be more expensive

pseudo abyss Dec 10, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

Nvidia even knew themselves that if they kept selling 1080 TI new, quite a bit of people would just get that instead of 1080, thats why they didnt

#

I am not saying it should be the same price as 1080 TI was now, it should be what 1080 TI was when it was new

You really think Nvidia are going to sell an RTX 2080 Ti for the same brand new price as a GTX 1080 Ti, effectively degrading their importance on ray-tracing

pseudo abyss Dec 10, 2018, 8:38 PM

you can only play at 30 fps basically with it, and it doesnt even make a huge difference in look yet

#

exept for mirrors

#

outer solar Dec 10, 2018, 8:39 PM

#

I believe a lot of people are missing the point of these newer cards

#

They're first-gen cards, so yes they'll be expensive, but they are only the first generation of a new technology, so Nvidia have to increase the price a bit to make back what they did on R&D and developing the technology in the first place

#

You're not paying for performance with these new ones

#

You're paying for the technology

pseudo abyss Dec 10, 2018, 8:41 PM

#

IF they really belive in it so much, keep selling 1080 TI (they dont) then

#

Yes you are paying for technology if you get it, but how it should work, and how it usually work,
last gen + little bit peformance or technology = same price + inflation
to get people with last gen to upgrade

#

Thats not what Nvidia do

#

Only because fanboys will still buy it

If the hole floor went, one of these is true:

The hole floor was on one single breaker and nothing else, if thats the case its an utter shit wiring.

Download folding client, assign your GPU to fold, sign up with a username, get a passkey, and fire away

I vividly remember when I started folding...

I chose the most wrong time to start, because the passkey generator was down, and the EOC site was having issues

#

So I was staggered to 6 days after I began to properly fold after finally receiving a passkey

It didn't help that near the end of October, EOC.net's database had a reshuffle so my stats were reset

Yeah, just look at tictoc over ocn, that chap folds with them undervolted and power limits unlocked. By what he posts, he gets at times to 1mil PPD, depending on WU of course

What about a 1080

proven marlin Dec 21, 2018, 11:19 PM

Should be similar I think

rich turtle Dec 21, 2018, 11:29 PM

#

My EVGA 1080s got 900k, my STRIX ones were always 700-800k.

#

Idk what limited them, but they were all like that.

proven marlin Dec 22, 2018, 1:04 AM

#

Probably the BIOS

#

Each tend to have different power limits

#

Like my SC and FTW3, the FTW3 can be set with a higher power limit

rich turtle Dec 22, 2018, 1:36 AM

Ah, makes sense.

tame burrow Dec 22, 2018, 2:11 PM

#

my gpu can't hit the desired power limits because of voltage issues. how do i reduce this?

#

it won't take anything more than +15mV offset

#

@tame burrow Power limit simply designates the maximum amount of power that is allowed to be pulled by the card. It doesn't mean the card will always pull 120% power or something like that

#

So it will operate normally and draw up to whatever your power limit is, if needed.

vernal oasis Dec 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

Mine accepts 104% power limit

#

The "reliability voltage" is usually my limit even then

@silk vigil Folding@Home is a project created by the Stanford University that uses computer power to contribute to disease research such as cancer

How it works is that someone like you can download the Folding client and configure your CPU and GPU to conduct what are known as 'work units', sets of homework that your PC does that will directly contribute to the SU's efforts in research

outer solar Dec 28, 2018, 11:25 PM

You have to register for a passkey

You can fold without one but the point differential isn't worth it

There's a post on the forums about what it takes to start folding but I'm in the middle of a CSGO game so I can get it for you later if you want

real kernel Dec 29, 2018, 8:47 AM

I just started folding about a week ago and managed to get the first million points. For me it works out great to have the client fold while I'm playing games for the most part so it's nice to even be able to have it running then

It depends which WU and which GPU you specifically have

Points are nice, but it's all for ITNOS and i guess that if they prioritize a certain research we will be hit with certain workloads. All for the greater good in my book.
