ahh
I got 32gb cl16 3200 gskil trident z rgb ram..
wait no 2U
anyone new to folding@home have trouble getting a passkey? it said it emailed but havent received anything in over an hour
cause, i didnt need it.
passkey will take ages to email atm
Thanks Linus
Thanks last weeks wan show putting everyone on to PCMR
ok thanks!
i never have time to watch an entire wan show.
Not bad pricing on that
normally new servers are kinda eh price wise for non business purchasing
Im still paying it off. After 1 year its mine, and all i need to do is continue paying for the space on the rack i rent and pay for the internet
You'll get more for your money if you go with used though

@silver wing where is a good place to get used servers sir?
Hey I have a question that hopefully somebody might know the answer to. On the requirements for the drawings, you have to have "10 days active". What exactly does that mean? 10 days of total folding time, or you have to have folded a little bit for 10 days, or folded 10 days before the end of the drawing? Or is that a 10 days active OR 500,000 points? Confusion
and search for know common servers like HPE DL360/DL380, Dell R510/610/710 etc

@hazy flax I am pretty sure the requirement is one work unit per day for the ten days
^
So I don't have to run it 24/7 for 10 days then?
Nah
that would be too tough a requirement
If these server issues keep getting worse we might need to change the requirements
And do you only earn points for completed work units?
yup
You only get points for completed work units when they're uploaded
I noticed my points was like 220 and I know I should have a lot more than that. I was wondering if that's what it was
Cause the completed workload was on my garbage pc lol
If these server issues keep getting worse we might need to change the requirements
@fierce steppe thats a good point
So i got 220 points for it lol
I don't think we can delay either though, interest is hot right now
Do you need a GPU to run folding?
CPU or GPU
could do that spot
completed gpu WU. WU01:FS01:Final credit estimate, 68587.00 points
it's raining points!
XD my issue was literally an ad blocker XD
Points earned on webveiwer still says 234 lol
My cpu got assigned Project 14053 (SFK)
Are the folding the computer needs to do more complicated (better suited for CPU) or more simple, so that it can be done better on a GPU?
Took 30min for my web control points to update the last work unit I completed
both
hello, how can i fold for covid-19
Download folding@rancid agate, set it up, start folding.
Covid-19 is being prioritised so if you just let it run on "Any Disease" it will most likely pick up a covid-19 related project
Heh I wonder how many tags theyve gotten
not enough
lmao
I'm running 300-500W an hour. for some households that might as well be 70% of all power usage
Better change their nickname to @NotHome
I dont have a watt reader
@silver wing @fierce steppe If we are having server issues the minimum requirements will be altered
im using my UPS
I dont have an UPS either heh
Hey guys. Not sure if this is already answered, but after setting up folding at home, do we have to select any settings specific for covid-19? or should it be left default, aka the folding team is already probably sending out covd-19 stuff for us to help out on?
Leave it set to the default Any Disease.
They've prioritised covid-19 projects
default should be any disease, which is where all the covid19 work units are.
too close! SOCIAL DISTANCING!
lol
oops xD bye ๐
sprays sanitizer at the monitor
6 foot minimum >:C
I went to the grocery store, they make everyone use a full size shopping cart for social distancing heh
I am waiting for more grocery stores to put yellow tape 6 ft apart for the checkout lines
Or force people to use self checkout
Or force people to use self checkout
And have everyone touch the screen?
Anyone else notice how all the old people who complained about how difficult self serve checkouts were suddenly know how to work them?
guess I will figure out what numbers i get tonight lol, only running 1 gpu
@hearty grail thats all you need
now I have an excuse to build another computer ๐ค
any guess why on my old phenom ii pc it doesnt wanna start folding?
it started running on my new system just fine.
Probably waiting on download
WUs require specific configurations so that one is just waiting on something made for it]
It took my desktop like over an hour to get a WU
3hrs in and i got 51k points
68.8k points from 1 gpu run
dayum
is it safe to post contents of Log publicly?
Not completely
Does anyone know if it uses Tensor cores?
Guys its been stuck at Ready since installation.
I was expecting to take some time to start folding, but its been couple hours already. Should I do something else? Perhaps due to my location I wont get anything to fold?
It can take a long time to get a WU for your config
not completely ๐ I will be cautious if I post them
Finally got a CPU work unit.
anyone having issues with the web client?
I have issues with the web client, it just loads.
use the snipping tool in windows. heh. click start(windows logo) and start typing snipping
I know. Too lazy
I use snipping tool cause im lazy
oof a 65w 4790s getting up to 88c
Takes less effort than using phone, switching to discord phone app..
(And I cant remember my password to log in to discord on that pc)
win key + shift + S also works as a shortcut to snipping tool.
additionally, you can configure the printscreen button to automatically launch snipping tool
Would you guys know why my GPU is folding but not my CPU?
my cpu is 95-100W atm
WinKey+Shift+S for even less steps required. Goes straight to clipboard
Or use shareX
Ill i click is CTRL + Shift + C and i can snip an area and it auto adds to my clipboard or you can have it auto upload to imgur
@toxic apex yeah, its an AIO, so temps arent great.
oh nenato beat me to it ๐
๐
cpu at 74C atm here
AIO should be decent. Intel and their non soldered CPUs :[
My intel is soldered iirc
Does this mean I'm delidding a cpu 
what program is that zero
thx
running just sensors
*All In One PC
hwmonitor is kinda garbage
F for forum
Still boosting though.
Can't get to ltt site, does the thread troubleshoot if you have no covid option even with fresh install
evoo gk7cp0s? ๐ฎ
Forum is just taking a moment of silence for all the lost F@H servers
Can't get to ltt site, does the thread troubleshoot if you have no covid option even with fresh install
@whole yoke just leave it on any and covid is prioritized
F
F
k thanks, searching for anything folding seems to not get good results
@wind osprey what do you use to monitor instead of HWmonitor?
HWinfo64
I might as well fold while I'm at work saving the world ๐ฆ
hwinfo64 yeah
oh ya LTT website is down o.o
I should install it on 4000 computers and just say it's helping get everyone back to work.
ltt bad getaway!
Linus is probably messing with the server again
linus probably dropped the server
my f@h web client it's glitching, looks like it's reloading itself multiple times
same
Zero are you using chrome? Switch to a different browser, use incognito mode, or use the advanced control
I started getting that after a reinstall
i'm using brave, chromium based
338683 13746 ZeroOfNine 68853 14
heh
I'm still 7887 overall, notbad
598440 20697 Gordolio 17055 3
first WU complete
Bruh, i have folded for like 2 hours and i only got 220 points?
Theres no place like http://127.0.0.1
I got some of my servers set up for folding at home around 60 cores 800-ishGb ram, and 1070tis thrown in. Does anyone know the team number for LTT?
@wind osprey technically the truth
223518
223518 is the team number
Thanks!
Geek for theres no place like home. heh
when ur gpu 5.3x ur cpu for ppd
not going to use my 8700k seems like a waste of power vs
my 2700k feels the pain
Folding at home primarily uses GPU rosetta@home is better optimized for CPU load
cpu: 125k ppd, gpu: 1.2m ppd.
lol i had a soft crash on my 9750H, had to log out of Windows and start it back up
firefox has better web control.
ppd is just an estimate, keep that in mind

nah, Linus dropped the serveragain

I need to relax myself before another shitshow of a week
how do i go about folding
gunna be a shitshow rest of the year
Does ltt have a rosetta@home team? Are teams on that even a thing?
Does ltt have a rosetta@rancid agate team? Are teams on that even a thing?
@crisp blaze yea they do, I don't know the info but the forum is down
I have D2 on the ps4, but i sold the ps4
I dont use a vm
anyone elses passkey not getting sent?
mine
Just spun up a windows vm for folding
@sharp ravine what is your host os
Iโm gonna hope my laptop is enough for it
not getting an email
takes awhile for a passkey
a while?
check other folders in mail too.
how long
^
1 hour for me.
kk
3 hours for another
can take up to 72 hours right now
up to 72hours
@hollow isle they will take multiple hours to send because i
Of how many people are requesting them
I started around noon and still havent got mine.
If you dont get one within 24 hours you can request another one.
You can do a request every 4 hours iirc
right
I got mine instant tho.
well, i'm using the advanced client bc of the glitch, but i want to know how to change to idle only load
took me almost 2 hours just to get a gpu WU
well, i'm using the advanced client bc of the glitch, but i want to know how to change to idle only load
@zenith belfry right click the folding logo in your system tray and there is idle there
I'm just setting a few machines up, and forgetting about them. Let them do their thing
Did we kill the forum?
@tough trout thanks
I had to delete the preconfigured client and I got my cpu and glu going instantly
~10 more hours for my laptop to finish a wu
yee ltt machine broke, someone else also had similar issues earlier
@rich depot we did
oof
specifically you and I
Might need to move the machines to another room though. That fan is annoying.
F
I have a fan already in my room and i cant hear the pc
Got at least one GPU WU when I started several hours ago. Things do seem glitchy since there's so many battering their servers, but it's happening, at least.
We have been hitting it hard tbf
And I plan on dragging out the big boi server tomorrow too. Get it going.
woo, 2nd gpu wu incoming
finally had the rare occurance of both cpu and gpu wu on my laptop
My computer has been working non stop, i even got 1 in my work queue.

@trim nexus I had all 3 at once at one point CPU and both GPUs
oh laptop
nevermind
Thunderbolt 3 enclosure for folding?
I'll be setting up my server with this later this week to bolster things, but still have about ~18 hours left on a parity sync before I set that up. Anyone know the best way to approach adding F@H to Unraid? VM or are there plugins/apps?
@crisp blaze i'd say no

@prime path i run the plugin and it works great
Y no?
This WU is estimated 117k points. heh
had a bigbrain idea, gonna leave the laptop outside in toronto weather for optimal thermals lmao
And stolen by a homeless dude
Just not enough bandwidth
Man, I hate even going to toronto
Soo.. is there reallly no WU to do?
Soo.. is there reallly no WU to do?
@wooden thunder just having a hard time giving them out i think
@sharp ravine what is your host os
@tough trout Proxmox
a lot of people are asking for them, so u have to wait
@hybrid eagle pause and start it back up, should be picking up at least one
just leave it, it takes time. the more u pause/restart the more it gives priority to others
Nice
yeah I only did it twice after that I realized no point in keep restarting
5 hours for 1 unit
I have a few questions about FAH... It's only using 40% of my GPU power when on "full power" and my CPU just says "ready". Any idea how to ramp up the power? How do I get it to use my CPU?
task manager doesn't show compute/cuda usage unless you change the graphs
@raw flint AMD or Nvidia video card?
How well is a msi gtx 1660
task manager looks at average, folding uses mainly cuda
Gotcha
1660 is pretty good, nice and power efficient
So what should I use?
100% cuda or near enough 100%
Afterburner or sm? Precision x1 does show higher usage, but I would like a percentage
holy flex
dw it's the mobile one lol
ah
click on the small arrow on top left corner of chart
idk why
Did you do what Bob said?
You need to change one of them over to it
I really wish Task Manager remember what you changed the graphs to so you didn't need to change it every time you open task manager
@raw flint pause it and resume, it'll reset that timer and will look for a unit straight away
(doesn't guarantee it will be able to find one, but it will look)
@raw flint don't do it to much though
Yeah I figured
Yeah, the increasing timer is to prevent it from DDoS'ing their servers with everyone checking for work units every 30 seconds
its better than task manager

The Wraith>
you need that 1.3v core?
That thinng is great
ya wraith
95C is the throttle point iirc
i dont know if i need the 1.3v core. im running all default settings in my bios
But I am boosting from 3.2 to 3.65
check cpu package temp in asus stuff
personally, if you're folding, id just mess with fan curves and ramp them up before trying to tune your clocks down
Like the FX chips
personally I use realtemp and check core voltages
Increase the fan RPM to as fast as it will go without sending you crazy from the noise
^
ok ill have to get the msi app for my mobo i guess
engage fan turbos
Next time I reboot I need to adjust my case fans, they're all just chilling at like 600RPM
@silver wing I dont even mess with voltages.
Folding @ home is just a 7 day long gpu validation test anyway

Hi, new here and wondering if I could get an answer to a problem with folding on my machine?
whats the problem?
why bother with cooling pads or other cooling junk when u can just pop open ur back door and let canada do the cooling for you?
The software is causing it so that when the screen sleeps, I can't wake it
Spotty doesn't know that Fiona and me, Do it in my van every Sunday

Spotty doesn't know!
as in someone yoinks your laptop

Sorry, song kept entering my head when I saw your nick
still waiting for my passcode
Could someone help me
Wouldn't be the first time it's happened :p
I'm having some problems with folding
State said problems, ergo perchance some lad here while have a response
i mean im like right next to it and no one ever comes by anyways
I'm having some problems with folding
@ruby dragon what you need?
I'm not sure why it won't wake from sleep @prime drum .. Do you have it set to fold while idle or always?
Set to idle
Not on jane and finch?
@tough trout I set everything up and it's not doing anything. In the "advanced" controller it says that it's waiting on a "WS Assignment"
@tough trout I set everything up and it's not doing anything. In the "advanced" controller it says that it's waiting on a "WS Assignment"
@ruby dragon Yep so you are all set up and now you just leave it running
I have started folding on my ok laptop #contributing
@ruby dragon yepp
it is indeed
thanks for your help!
i guess LTT have no chance against PCMR
question under
I support research fighting
i dont see covid 19
Just put all
any disease
i guess LTT have no chance against PCMR
@rich depot whys that?
On their website they said that they are working on it
covid 19 is prioritized
Heres a list of their projects that have covid19
Yep
i guess LTT have no chance against PCMR
@rich depot umm excuse me?
ok
The Current Folding@home project IDs that correspond with Coronavirus (COVID-19) research are 11741, 11742, 11743, 11744, 11745, 11746, 11747, 11748, 11749, 11750, 11751, 11752, 11759, 11760, 11761, 11762, 11763, 11764, 14328, 14329, 14530, 14531, and 14532.
well i have 2 gtx 1070 ti's 1 gtx 1070 and ryzen 2700 all running atm
sacrifice my bitcoin mining for greater good
Absolute beast
how come project pages aren't working on F@H website?
3600X peeps wave yer hands in the air
Ive got a 3900x coming soon ๐
I'm still jusing shintel
So um, Iโm a bit concerned about the lifetime of my components when running 24/7.
Then don't run 24/7
I run my PC 24/7 regardless of what im doing
If my 6700k dies I'll just get AMD ๐คท
Iโve got both my cpu and gpu going rn
I'm still on sandybridge lol
Oh no
E5-2620 ftw
My i5 4950 ran for over 5 years fine 24/7
So um, Iโm a bit concerned about the lifetime of my components when running 24/7.
@covert oyster just make sure temps are good
I abused it like a red headed step child
running hardware 24/7 is perfectly fine as long as your hardware stays cool
@fierce steppe
kekm i knew having comparison graphs would help
lol
@tough trout my rx 470 settled in at about 75c and my i7 4770 is about 71c average. Both undervolted.
Atm, my 3600x is 74c
It isnโt my main pc but Iโd like it to last a while.
@sharp ravine fellow sandy bridge users here as well, but the i7-2700k @ 4.5 GHz. I still do not fold with it though. Meltdown & Spectre hit it hard.
2060 74c as well heh
I live right next to Summit. Wish I could get them to fold for LTT.
i sware i have a cherry picked gtx 1070 dang thing at 35% fan speed will not get over 40c
@tough trout my rx 470 settled in at about 75c and my i7 4770 is about 71c average. Both undervolted.
@covert oyster these are reasonable temps from my knowledge should be good to go
Aight
now the 1070 ti's them things run HOT
@shrewd wigeon
i sware i have a cherry picked gtx 1070 dang thing at 35% fan speed will not get over 40c
How ramped up is your GPU? Mine sometimes runs full bore and sometimes only 50% TDP.
@silver wing
@unique sigil Whats keeping the LTT F@H server? Hardware deliveries? time to assemble? getting the software needed to run it? Config?
well i dont get it, but should they not push new stuff already?
Linus dropping it?
the LTT F@H server isn't going to happen over night
Deployment is hard
of course not. I'm just wondering if they're waiting on hardware.
aka supply chain issues.
That's why operations is usually a pretty big team in large companies
AFAIK its going to be in building to LTT and not a Colo cause LMG has a big fat pipe anyway
dang, new cpu wu not a covid 19 one.
Damn, you'll just have to cure cancer instead
Damn, you'll just have to cure cancer instead

Atleast its only a 30 minute one
brb spending 4 hours modeling 100 nanonseconds of activity.
nah bastian have to create an 500 Core cpu setup and dish it on f@h.
I blame catching an LTT vid last year made me upgrade pc and ofc rgb.
i have rgb only on 2 places. mice and keyboard. practical.
hmmm grr my server desided not to fold its stuck at updating
Im stuggling to get the remote client access working for the clients, both machines have the port the client works on unblocked on both tcp and udp. but niether of them seem to be unable to connect
Its at full
FULL POWER!
yup i just finished getting it set up besides the keypass as thats taking forever and im hitting 98% cpu
and gpu is hitting 85-105%
105%?
unlimited folding works
totally got it set to max power 110% with 4404mhz on ram and 2126 on gpu over clocks
i think it is
the forums are down
i cant get to it either
lttstore.com is up
so is folding like an advanced bitcoin mining
more or less
Except its saving the world in the process
hm
yup
anyone tried folding on a mobile gpu?
Let me just pull out my google pixel and lets test it out
like i meant a 940MX and similar, not a phone's gpu
Yeah no I know, I was just being a douche
lel
iirc, @trim nexus has one
do you get more points the faster it finishes?
i wanna say now
How many credits are you guys getting
I'm getting almost nothing.
16615 and 193
~60k every 3ish hrs.
I'm somehow getting 130000/day
17691/day
Still stuck on 220
*missed a 0, now up to 1500000/day
@rose seal estimate
yeah
~1.5mil
This feels a lot more rewarding than mining lol
LOL
This feels a lot more rewarding than mining lol
@sharp ravine agreed!!
Anyone tried folding on a mobile GPU?
As in laptop?
yeah
I seen someone earlier saying they were on a laptop
I'm on a mobile 1060
Is it the same way as the desktop ones or is there something that should be handled differently?
sorry my GPU seem stuck at 40% am I supposed to allow more power somewhere?
ok
My cpu is currently kicking my gpus butt
wow, Threadripper?
Is it the same way as the desktop ones or is there something that should be handled differently?
@eternal fiber I'm running a 1060 and an external 2080 at the same time, and i feel there's no difference
oh, thanks
@eternal fiber me?
yes
nvm, mine too, lel
that 560 should be beating even a ryzen 3700x
gpu's are way more efficient at folding
yeah, thats what i was thinking
a 570 will beat basically every desktop socket CPU
i mean that's sorta the benefit of this system, every small contribution adds to the whole
500/15
I only have one core folding on my 3600 cause the GPU is doing all the work even if I have all my votes going
Cores going*
theres folding for cpu and gpu..
IMO only CPU fold if you can afford the power cost, or have no other choice, otherwise just don't bother - it's far less efficient
get both at once!
i am only doing basic tasks like browsing and Discord, so the HD 620 must be enough for that. The 940MX is idle so I wanted to put that to some good use.
If you can afford to
My itx build sounds like a rocket when I have all cores going, so thatโs a no for me
a 16-core 3950x is 200,000 PPD and most CPU's are far less
a gtx 1050ti will do 350,000 PPD, a 1070 will do 800,000 PPD... RTX cards 1 million and up
so realistically the output from even older slower GPU's is better than even the fastest most core dense CPU's
โซ
My 2060 gets 1.1 mil as well
6gb non super
Same
how much does a Vega 64 get?
somewhere between 800k and 1mil
Awe man someone wanna lend me a 2060 lol
lol
Which speaking of, I have a 2060, but if I have an old gpu lying around, can I just throw it in my system with no SLI bridge and use it as a dedicated protein folder?
gpu is a gtx 780 if that helps with any thing
@devout abyss yes, if your old GPU has CUDA and can function with the same driver
so if it's like a 600 series and up I think for nvidia
Whats the team number for ltt
Oh really?
Because I have a super old Radeon 7700 that I could just chuck in, it won't be very fast, but it's something
but you can't install both AMD and nvidia drivers in windows at the same time
Oh thats right
Give it a try
so unless you were running linux your life just got far more complicated
even if you were running linux tbh your life got far more complicated
it's so much easier to run two of the same brand card - one driver install no conflicts
Yep
@frozen oxide you can install AMD and Nvidia drivers at the same time, I used to fold with both an AMD and Nvidia card
Team number please!
225something
223518
^
@fierce steppe with windows 10? with recent cards? cos last I checked each driver overwrites some of the same files as the other causing issues
Yes, Windows 10. HD7970 on latest AMD drivers and GTX1080Ti with latest Nvidia drivers
Was working a few days ago
anyone know how scaling is for sli or nvlink?
Uh
Probably pretty good (edit nevermind I'm stupid listen to the people below me, they got it right. sli don't work)
you can't use SLI.
You use each card independently
don't do SLI
why isn't any cpu being used up?
@violet marsh you don't have a CPU unit yet
u have to wait for a wu for ur cpu
My GPU is running at 45%.... can't seem to ramp it up higher, any suggestions?
ok thanks
@young lotus use afterburner or hwinfo to read gpu usage
lol i think this is the first time my gpu fans hace spun
your GPU is not running at 45%...
Set task manager to show CUDA/compute usage
task manager averages all usages, the sim is only using cuda compute
Task manager is insanely incorrect
thx @frozen oxide and @fierce steppe i'll check that out
cuda compute should be 90-100
Mine says 45% as well, but when I go into MSI afterburner, it says 99% usage and 82 c
@young lotus
98-100 in afterburner and pinned at 45 in task manager
click on the small arrow on the top left of any of the charts and select cuda
hmm my last 2 completed WUs have not shown on my donor profile, nor have i received my points
task manager displays average of all usages, cuda should be near full utilization
@rose seal stats only update once per hour
46% for a moment
how long ago did you complete them @rose seal ?
What WU number?
1 finished 5 min ago, the other maybe 25min ago
yeah they wont have updated yet
stats only update once per hours, on the hour
just be patient check in an hour
Gotcha, thanks
Man I wish I still worked at bestbuy so I could set up all the demo models.
Whenever I go onto the web client it constantly refreshes saying "waiting for 127.0.0.1" at the bottom left
Very strange, it was working fine earlier
btw does the viewer thing work for anyone?
Doesnt work on windows in v7.5.1
What do you mean by that
does this multi tread will on cpu?
In windows version 7.5.1 of the folding at home client the viewer will be stuck on demo loop
yes, client version 7.5.1
So how would I go about updating the client?
Date of last work unit 2020-03-15 16:49:08 my stats just aren't updating ๐ฆ
Has anyone tried folding on an NVS card? Just curious.
If your having issues with the web client just copy the url you have, open an incognito page and paste it there
my one passkey just isn't getting points anymore.. and if I change my identity I lose my points. meh
You could also clear the cache on your main browser but it breaks so often that it's easier to just do that.
Just out of curiosity, what is the issue that causes the web client to break down constantly
different browser also works
@fierce steppe and @frozen oxide and @trim nexus... task mgr says 46% but you're right, core load in HWiNFO sensor shows 99%
No idea I've had issues with old clients also this has always been the way I've gotten around it.
Huh
If clearing the chache and using incognito mode works, thats very odd.
Some sort of issue with cache/cookies/browser history
Man I wish I still worked at bestbuy so I could set up all the demo models.
@hot spoke I was just telling my roommate to do that today lmfao
@devout abyss go to this url in your web browser http://localhost:7396/
anyone have cpu tasks running?
How long does it usually take for the email to come through for your passcode?
It's been several hours for me and I still haven't gotten it.
That is for the web client GeneralPearTree
Thank you
I just bookmarked it in my browser
It works fine on non-incognito mode
anyone else having trouble with the web client?
Many thanks to you
Must be my terrible internet and timing as per usual, but hello everyone, I literally just joined this because of that last video lol
Just look a few posts up
Hey guys, I wish I could help with the folding, I got a Threadripper 2920X literally waiting.. I have a server PSU that is extremely loud, I can't manage to control the fans. Do you guys got any ideas?
SpeedFan?
Build a server room
it's a redundant server psu , 4x 80mm fans of 20.000RPM
I just want to use it for a few days to help with the cause
no hybrid mode button on it I take it
Server psus usually are very loud anyways, I do not know if there is a whole lot that can be done about that
earplugs
I don't have on this motherboard any freaking SMBus connection so I can't manage the PSU fans...
It's moving 90 m3 of air every min man
my head is blowing in 20 mins
You could mod the fan o.o risky risky
put a paper clip in it
good idea part no
Do you guys know if any server motherboard that has PMBus or SMBus connection it has a Bios setting for PSU fans?
Just do what linus did, shove 17 volts down the fan's throat
I know Linus decrease the speed for his PSU, I can't manage it.. and can't get in touch with anyone who knows..
It's a zippy 2N psu, from a 45 Drives storinator
What Fritz2020 said
Stick a paperclip in it
I do not know of any server board that have psu fan adjustment settings
Not sure what you or him mean by that honestly.
Nor any retail boards
I wouldn't clip anything on those fans, if that's what you mean.
Well, they are supposed to run. that PSU is a 1500W psu..
I just don't want 100% duty cycle
Hmm
for 200W
Yeah
funny thing is , they are set from factory like this
unfold a paper clip and put it in the middle of two fan blades
it's so stupid
contacted 45 Drives, they told me to pay 400$
so some guy can tell me on phone how to fix it
If you get a high end psu from like corsair, I think you can control it with their proprietary software like ICUE
I'd have to confirm that though, not 100% sure
Don't quote me on that
I doubt it would have 2x 24pin sockets
I would need one for motherboard and one for the 60x hard drives that server has
it's quite custom build i got here
So the second 24 pin is split into a crap ton of molex
but i can't sort this fan issue
and i honestly want this to run in my office
not in a server room, just yet
can't really change the PSU, can't find any of that caliber nor one that has proper fan speed controls
Exactly how many molex connectors do you need?
Hmm
There's probably no solutions for the controllable fan speed
thing is it has software controlled logic in it
Because most servers have their own standards
it has a microcontroller that i tried to use to control them
Like dell has their own thing
it's supposed to use SMBus specification
usually there is a cable on these PSU that connect to motherboard
Can you send a picture of just the psu?
Yeah, I see
You basically just have a rats nest of molex plugged into a second 24 pin atx
Why is the folding thing not pinning my cpu and gpu
CPU is not getting loaded for many people right now
it does, it has all that it needs to be able to connect and control those fans
Many people are having the issue of waiting for their cpu to be sent workloads
GPU I don't know, try waiting a bit
Yeah my email for my pass key didnโt go through
That may be your problem
So devsnowy, I was thinking, you could potentially unscrew the top of your PSU, take off the stock fan, screw on a different PWM fan that you buy, recrew the top panel of the PSU, and run the PWM cable to a header on your mobo
Thats why I said it was fairly janky
The site down ??
httpsjakeb, it can take a while to get keys
hmmm
they would draw to much power tho
12V at 1A, it's 12W from mother board..fan socket
For me it took under a minute, for my friend it took over 30 minutes, for somebody else on the forums it's taken over 2 hours. The servers are having trouble distributing keys to everyone, just be patient
it would pretty much blow any of normal fan headers i think
Oof
Thank you
404 not found
You gave me an idea tho, I could take those fan cables out entirely
and I can make some raspbery pi fan controler
with 12V from PSU using a molex
That could work
Yeah, using a molex connect straight from the psu
And then just raspbery pi a fan controller
yeh with some nice web interface in nodejs
I'm assuming since you though of it you are decently versed in code?
also i think i can actually read the Temps from PSU
using that connection, and rasbery has i2c
Yeah I got all that skillset
Ok
I'm a programmer
Epic
Do you mind telling me what your program?
for money nodejs, javascript; but for projects java, c#
Cool
I tried in many different ways with this PSU man
paid so much for it, and i can't handle one simple shit..
too loud
Yeah, I got really in love with the concept
and its PCI lanes
got also 128gb ram for it, to make a nice ZFS raid
most likely 50 14TB drives and 10 SSDs
not sure yet the layout
Big balls 64 core goodness
Haha
and honestly, wasn't ready for it; too expensive and at that time had issues with hypervisors
I built my rig with an rtx 2060, literally a week later the 2060 KO comes out
it would give me same performance as 3950x ryzen 7 right now
I could have saved 100 dollars
but with more lanes
Good thing that makes me feel less bad about it, the KO sucks for overclocking
And I like me some good old fashioned overclocking
i could do some really amazing overclocking on this thing man
but if i show you how loud thos 4x 20.000 rpm fans are..
it's like 2 jet engines
2
I believe you
Why is my client stuck at downloading 0%?
Probably some sever issue, retry.
^
I still think it a very interesting setup you have, using a PSU with two 24 pin connectors and running a shit ton of molex connects off of it to power your fans and hard drives
Yeah, nice thing about it is that every hdd has it's own SAS cable
compatibile with SAS or SATA
Are you using some kind of adapter cable for the molex?
i remember it was
I still remember the video when one of Linus's lsi cards broke
his raid one broke
these are HBA cards
they use them too in those storinators
i liked the video a lot, and was anyway looking for such enclosure, managed to make 45 Drives at that time to get me one without components ๐
i didn't wanted to pay 12k for overpriced hardware
i only wanted the enclosure
Yeah
their deal was, no support
i guess i got that feeling now with this PSU
but honestly i think they would just say, bruh; you got no socket on motherboard for the psu - rip
i literally tried to email linus through his contact, tried youtube superchats.. not a single chance
So before we continue with our conversation (which I am thoroughly enjoying by the way, keep going. There is only so much you can do during quarantine), the original issue is resolved, right? Your going to either get a pwm fan or rig a raspberry pi fan controller powered by molex for the fan?
I can bring more details about that honestly
I opened one of those units I got in the PSU. They got a glued fan cable ; PWM cable tho
i could split it and make a longer cable easly but not sure how I could get it out of the unit; they do have a empty back for airflow right into the server.
feels janky to do that honestly, when I know the PSU supports temperature fan controlled shit by itself
You could get heatshrink and some copper wire and extend the cable
I can't change the fans tho, they are too small, and to well put in place with everything else
they are pretty much like those 80k fans Linus had in that video
just cheaper and slower
got all of those things, I'm honestly thinking about it now
I even got raspberry and all necessary components
not sure if i got a fan driver for 12W per fan DC
I mean, if you think it's the easiest route to go, do it
I might be able to find some circuit that does that
I spent literally 2 weeks trying to learn that specification
and hack it into it to do at least 80% of duty cycle not 100%
Like I said, my knowledge of pc tech relies almost 100% in hardware, anything code related I could not help with
only managed to read temps, turn of or on the psu or read serial numbers..
But you clearly know what your doing
looks like not enough
or that specification is not followed correctly
any other ideas to decrease the noise?
money isn't a problem
I don't think I can fit ATX PSU
I found that obvious seeing as you have a literal storinator with a threadripper
i was thinking to buy two ATX psus
I was also thinking that
Run them off a jumper so that they both turn on when the mobo gets power
that's quite easy, problem would be to fit in the case XD
And your drives boot up at the same time as your system
i can deal with all that
at some point i might just drill and make holes for some other layout to place these PSUs
Get some sheet metal and extend the case lmao
i should measure, maybe i can place them vertically
hot swappable ATX psu ahaha
that would be a fun project
side effect: it may catch fire
haha
Jake was on voice chat, tried to ask him about it; Too many people talk about anything man
Can't even ask one simple question
and would be literally just about how Linus solved it
What do you expect, they're basically celeberties
I'm surprised Jake didn't just server mute everyone
Yeah, I guess..
got a flaw with the raspberry plan, if I do it like that I will have one cable from every unit back in the main PSU enclosure and it would just make them unswapable
Hmm
and if i ever want to place it into a colocation datacenter, i will never be able to do that anymore
Drill a hole in the psu to have access?
they would still become unswapable tho
but i guess that's the price
i mean i would have to disable the thing, take cable out, put the cable through the hole
Was that your plan, to put your storinator into a colocation datacenter?
Right now got 3 options, 1) rent a new office place, with a server room; 2) get a house/apartment that has some closet i could use for this 3) get it into a colocation datacenter and forget about it; and just pay electricity and internet for there
If you don't mind me asking, I'm assuming the storinator would act as your server or NAS?
That is correct
I want to start making more of these, and build a small storage network
I've had this dream for a long time before seeing any of this videos
but never had the money
Okay this is supposed to sound like a flex or anything but do you think my rig can participate in folding I have 3700x with 2070 super and 16 gbs of ram? Any help would be appreciated
but i enjoy them as much as heck
Hmm doesnt seem like the donor page is updating. Been almost 2 hrs. Anyone else have this issue?
you can easy participate @mighty dagger
@mighty dagger You can participate with literally anything
It's just a matter of how long it takes to process the simulation
Oh okay I thought you had to have a beefy system
Nope
No not at all
You could try with your laptop if you want to
I have a 9600k 2060 system and I already have over 50k points
Ah okay awesome I got my passkey at night so I'll try tomorrow this is such a great cause
is 940MX a supported GPU for folding?
Look above
I think it doesn't matter the model @eternal fiber
You can fold on literally any hardware with a processing core and a megahertz of frequency
@primal summit I checked the client logs, it said WU not available for this configuration
It just will affect simulation time, just like it would affect game performance or cinebench score
@eternal fiber that just means the server doesn't have work for you at the moment
WU = work units
^^^
oh, so I just leave it like that and go get breakfast?
yup
ye
Thx
I've been waiting over an hour for a new WU
Mine has been like that for the past 8 hours (No WUs available for this configuration)
the servers are overwhelmed and cant push WU's to everyone as fast as people would like
My CPU's got one rn, the GPU is sitting idle.
I know they weren't ready for the LTT hug of death
Definitely not
they had hardly recovered from the first hug of death this month
lan or wan?
but why is my CPU usage at 60%
