waiting will cost you hundreds of thousands
my PPD is 580k
ive gotten 100k in 1 day
Not sure if it is the point updater not displaying properly or I have lost 900k points already
smh google cloud costs per hour and my vm is stuck doing nothing because no wus
EOC's latest update failed
wonderful
check again in 2 hours
that just sounds like a waste of money
normally my VM is rendering
but since I have nothing to render atm
the point is to use hardware that would be otherwaise sitting idle
good point
well that system has been powered and idle for a couple weeks, thought i'd put it to better use
i have 16 attempts no wus
been idle for an hour now, both cpu and gpu. will change at some point in time
mine is working right away
i only started folding this morning, had 3 WUs for my cpu and one for my GPU, nothing since then
but yeah, it's just the distribution servers bottlenecking
yes
I mean
well I give up explaining still thanks
?
well a ton of users started folding within the last few days
a LOT of people have been folding
they need to build out the servers themselves to handle the load
running a CPU task on my laptop always make it throttle to death
but that doesn't mean we don't need less people, more is always better
more than 10x increase
which is great
Yeah
I use to fold and would always have a LOT of WU's for both CPU and GPU, but since we heard that F@H is doing research for COVID, there was never a better time to start
im really happy i found this, i rarely do intensive stuff on my pc, and this is a great use for it
And after some tweaking and undervolting my CPU I found that I can run a GPU slot only when having reasonable temps
we need some IRC back!!
So I'm asking is it okay to not use my CPU(or, having a CPU slot)
GPU is fine
ive only been using my cpu, as my gpu is older and less powerfull, and im kinda worried about breaking it
gtx1050
i told it to finish the CPU task and then pause now its just using my GPU
single fan
And if I'm sure not using my CPU should I dump the task
dont want 2x Xeon E5-2650 v2's to cook my room
it's especially important to note that it's a common trend for things like this to spike once people like Linus make people aware of it (i, for example, never even knew this F@H thing existed) and it will boom for a short while, but then over the course of a few days or weeks it'll become much less people. Still way more people than before the boom though, so the entire project is happy to see anyone joining
I did some distributed computing before and some says detaching task is better than letting it time out
So does this general rule still apply here?
Honestly, the only people who will stop are those that lose interest
But how can you lose interest in something running in the background
or those worrying about their electricity bills
or they see their power bill
Do you have an active CPU project currently @glass path ?
If you're not working on an active project, if its just waiting, then you can remove the CPU slot.
my power bill is already 311/month USD
@fierce steppe yeah but I paused it since it puts my CPU at 95C
BRUH
My power bill is like $104 Canadian
this F@H stuff will only make it go up $20
that's fine with me
i don't know how to view my pc's power draw, but i would assume a Ryzen 9 3900X can be a bit powerhungry
thats prob why my power bill is kinda high
$311 lol, get some solar
@fierce steppe yeah but I paused it since it puts my CPU at 95C
@glass path Ah. If you can it'll be best to set it to Finish where it will stop after it finishes the work unit it's currently on and not start another.
Dumping a work unit will count as a failed WU and it can make you ineligible to receive QRBs
@silver wing sure let me put it on top of my apt complex
Dumping a work unit will count as a failed WU and it can make you ineligible to receive QRBs
oh no i accidentally dumped one before i returned my first task
Our rates are weird
Off-Peak 10.1 cents per kwh
Mid-Peak 14.4 cents per kwh
Peak Rate - 20.8 cents per kwh
We're getting our rates lowered to 10.1 cents per kwh indefinitely
Go for it, who's going to notice 10 large panels anyway ๐
lol
my bill is 60โฌ a month, which is a lot considering I live alone and i'm not really earning too much as an apprentice
Should be fine if you dumped one... I've had a bunch fail due to unstable OCs and stuff..
You need to maintain 80% return rate
That is a lot
lets see current power draw of that server, what IP is my idrac for that......
One thing you can do to lower your electricity bill is to replace your lights with LED bulbs
only turn on what you need
Do they still sell incandescent bulbs?
only got LEDs
gah what IP did I assign to that R720
You need to maintain 80% return rate
is that stated anywhere on the site?
also, windows
folding
senko-idrac | PowerEdge R720
My 1080 finally got a WU!
there we go
So been testing and it turns out that (in response to my own question earlier) that if you have low selected it never uses the GPU - this is a real shame as I don't want my CPU set to medium whilst I'm working but I'd like to donate my GPU time. ๐ฆ
@thick holly what was that question you wanted to ask earlier? Did you get an answer?
Yes you posted the link, that is how I was able to see ๐
on CPU, you can select specific cores to use for folding or just disable it generally @pallid cedar

@pallid cedar then justy set cpu topo run when idle in advanced
also cpu runs are rare anyway ive never even gotten one
I have gotten 2
I always get them.
i had 3 today
@odd barn i more or less have 1100 Watt PSUs in all my R720s so they can handle a proper load
Last question: I see I get the base credit when I returned a unit before (and I know i'm still not eligable for QRB yet)
Does estimated credit calculates QRB?
2x SFF and 1 LFF
@lean spire I see what you mean. Hmm it's not as confiurable as I'd like. I'd like to set GPU to medium (any time) and CPU to low (any time). I don't think I can do that can I?
Pitty I like the 12 drive LFF servers
not that im aware of @pallid cedar
Thanks.
well i like PCIe slots and the 12 bays i saw tool space in back for the 2.5" options
as my other 2 run proxmox and all that jazz
I am not getting any work units, what might be the problem?
just wait
their servers can't keep up with the preparation and distribution of the work units, so patience will eventually give you some WUs
@dreamy hazel the core option seems to be the best idea.
Yep, dual 2.5" rear and 12 bays in front. All the 2U servers do that and it's really nice. Really hated having to waste 2 bays in the past for OS
I wanted to see the stats of both my computers combined. I was able to see my total by going to https://stats.foldingathome.org/donors and entering my info
Last question: I see I get the base credit when I returned a unit before (and I know i'm still not eligable for QRB yet)
Does estimated credit calculates QRB?
@glass path Without the QRB you'll just get the base credit amount.
Yeah, it's based off the estimated time for you to finish.
thanks a lot
Think I got what I need to know for now
lol so all 14 of my workers are dead atm
Ayyy, Folding@rancid agate twitter retweeted LTT's folding video
nice
I'm surprised Home hasn't changed their discord name yet ๐
Lol
Their ISP wouldn't care
All Telus cares about is getting thousands of dollars for the 10Gbit connection
didnt they contact their ISP for security issues?
well if its anything like thier MC server and their firewall cockblocking almost everyone , that will be fun
i think they mentioned it in the video or wan show
Ayy I got an estimated 1MILL PPD between my 3 folding machines
That estimate vs reality makes you cry
Yeah I'm estimating like 1.3-1.6M PPD but have only [just] broke 1mill twice in the last 2 weeks
Think my estimate is around 4,5-5m between my machines atm, and I got 300k
Yeah, figures as much. Im just impressed all three machines have all folding slots filled
For anyone using linux and nvidia you can change the TDP of the card (limit) to avoid high temps
(or possibly overclock it :D)
woop woop, new gpu WU
grats!
seemed like they did better this morning, but it definitely went down again
Temperature control disabled. Requirements: single Nvidia GPU, tmax must be < 110 and twait >= 900
this again tho
weird
Does it only happen when you start a new WU?
yes
Yeah that's fine you can ignore it
got an eye on gpu temps, 76C is fine
not concerned, my gpu should be trustworthy enough to handle this
just wondering what might cause this message to show up
well, actually last time I saw it it was in the middle of a WU
but only once
I'm not entirely sure, but I believe there's a flag you can set in the advanced settings to make F@H shut down if it reaches a tempt limit you set
by default it doesn't have this set and leaves it up to the GPU
hm, yeah, might be that
For anyone using linux and nvidia you can change the TDP of the card (limit) to avoid high temps
@lusty trellis https://devblogs.nvidia.com/increase-performance-gpu-boost-k80-autoboost/ HOWTO
69 work units
13:20:29:WU01:FS00:Final credit estimate, 9405.00 points
Um excuse me where is my QRB
Lmao 69
It's normal I think
Task manager is dumber than HWmonitor...
Change one of the GPU graphs to Cuda/Compute
Eh, use HWinfo tho
@dreamy hazel Yes. Go to Task Manager and select to see Cuda ... it'll be 99-100%
@dreamy hazel I did the same thing at first ๐
funny how simple games still work perfectly fine though
I've been playing a lot of Slay the Spire lately, runs fine when folding with minimal drop in points
Osu still fluent
looks like I haven't had a task for like 6 hours
you are doing a to good job you all, leaving no wu's for other people ๐ keep it up
lul
just now noticed how my current WU's eta went from 5 to 7hrs though
guess that's why osu runs so well still
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I'm getting a lot of WU... maybe a new server spawn up? o.O
folding at home should run with low priority, so other tasks (gaming) will take priority over it for resources
yeah
i want to see what my cpu will think of a new WU while i play different games
I mean, that's mainly what I got the 12core for, doing other tasks while playing
I'll just close the F@h software for a bit. did a ram upgrade yesterday (from 16 to 32gb) so gotta test for a bit how much impact it makes on certain jobs
my desktop gpu getting a job after job while laptop is not doing anything
annoying
๐ก there you go
you're literally the wise man that magically knows everything that was asked in the past 5 hours of me being in this discord :P
RAM has zero impact on folding (unless you have too little RAM, like 2GB system total)
@dreamy hazel no I know, but it is for photoshop and stuff. Thats why I'm closing F@h since I'm not getting any wu's and go do some jobs in photoshop and video editing
Should be right with 8GB or more
ah, sorry :p
no problem
what about ram speed and ccx communication though?
Ah yeah, if you're doing other RAM intensive stuff then that will help
does that matter?
do you also know when they will get new servers up?
they're working on it as fast as they can, i'm sure of that
oh yeah I know
as for a specific point in time, not really
just messing
Don't expect it any time soon
yeah, setting that up with a certain degree of security (since the internet is scary, as we know) there's no good point in rushing things
true
yeah, setting that up with a certain degree of security (since the internet is scary, as we know) there's no good point in rushing things
@dreamy hazel Internet is not scary - just their users ๐
last big project I was in was from the archive team, which was less security dependant, so easier to scale
my IT teacher during "college" was literally drawing the internet as a cloud with an evil smily in it
added 16gb ram to my system yesterday. I need more
+16 GB Geheugen
but, why?
this was scrubbing through a 4k timeline in premiere
it puts everything in ram, once I stop scrubbing it drops down again
ooh. thought it couldn't be for folding
RIP Q6600. Was gonna leave it overnight but turned it off for some reason
gotcha
maybe cause wifi light will distract me for a snooze
is it normal that only the gpu gets work while the cpu gets nothing?
yes
There's a lot of demand at the moment so it's a bit hard to get work units consistently atm
CPUs seem to be worse off at the moment
i see
I guess every system has a CPU but not every system has a dedicated GPU
yeah
but there are also more GPU WUs being generated
67k GPU work units being assigned per hour
37k CPU work units being assigned per hour
does the gpu clock speed affect the speed of work?
uh IDK about thjat
I imagine it is like everything, the more powerful the GPU the quicker it can get it done
I was thinking of downclocking my GPU to get away from 82 C but 82 C seems to be safe for RTX at base speeds
GPU core clock does yes.
Just don't push it too high where it starts crashing, then you will start failing WUs
I just let GPU Boost do its thing
ahh i see
I need to find my old fan hub
As long as the cards cool it'll boost up (and its not being limited by power limits or anything else)
think I may need to add a extra fan on a Vostro case
though dunno where a 120 will get cool air from a cramped space with small metal holes
noice
sorry its like that i have 2 screens and it too pics of both of them
nice
im going too
first gpu wu after a bunch of crashes
First 1000000 steps wu as well lets go
got a wu
long one i guess
when i was not at home
lets see if my other pc is doing okay
yep
got a wu on that too
11758?
I'm a bit worry that we may storm Linus server like his Minecraft server
Is this normal??
yes
Yeah, it's normal. Not an issue with your setup but its an issue with their servers.
Yes
@rich depot WE wont get to choose server so that wont happen
Just lots of demand on the servers and not enough WUs to go around
Alrighty, thak you guys.
i have a cpu one that has an ETA of over a day
LTT: 530M pts
Default: 505M pts
Woot we beat them again this update (also includes last update pts since that didnt run)
hey
i just realized i have 63k points
i got ryzen 5 3600 and my temps are reaching 87 degrees, should i do something or?
can you increase the fan speed?
read it'd be better to keep under 80
well @dire linden mines the exact same so were going down together
i can stream it in voicechat
i think i could
when gpu is running
join me if you can ๐
I just cranked the fan speed on my CPU and let it boost up to 4.05GHz or so and now my GPU doesn't want to clock super high for FAH for some reason?
Like, the ETA has gone up
Hi have RTX 2060 super but i cant seem to get a project to do, it says i have already attempted 8 times, do i just have to wait...I have previously done some WUs and have 60k point but are struggling to get a project/WU to do...Any help?
Yeah, just wait...
If you look in the advanced control how long does it say for the "Next Attempt:"?
they cant keep up handing everyone jobs
4 mins
it took me 20+ attempts
Yeah if it's just a few minutes between attempts just wait
too many ppl doing great work for human mankind, the server cant keep up with it ๐
Is there a reason and does it matter that FAH sees my R9 380 as R9 200 Series?
nice
I'm still so confused aaaaaaaa
Gpu is really not wanting to put a whole lotta effort in
Better than my temp tho
and now 2 of the cores are dying
Dang boi
I just cranked the fan speed on my CPU and let it boost up to 4.05GHz or so and now my GPU doesn't want to clock super high for FAH for some reason?
@visual lily power not enough? just asking
That's what I thought, but I've got a 650w gold psu that should be enough, I think
to much heat in the system?
GPU takes like 200w at max, and ryzen 3700x is hella efficient
Set it in mid or light if you have heat issue
cough
anyone know why this isn't sending? its been like it for an hour and the logs don't mention about trying to upload
only 63c tjunc, cant be heat
My CPU is up to 81c but it's on PBO so it'll clock down if it starts to not like its temps
Possible failure to upload completed WUs 11753 & 11758 to work servers 155.247.164.213 & 155.247.164.214. F@H are aware and are investigating the issue. Read More...
Well ^
Too much people are sending and their server can't handle it
same here tikho, mine keeps it around 81-82C
render things in software
Possible failure to upload completed WUs 11753 & 11758 to work servers 155.247.164.213 & 155.247.164.214. F@H are aware and are investigating the issue. Read More...
oh no i just start folding one, but tbh it might finished when servers are up
can i check how many operations my cpu finished and how many gpu?
your stats
^
If I disable PBO my GPU still isn't going at full throttle so it's not that
This is so weird
Stats are combined, no way to see which were CPU or GPU
so i have a problem
just shows me total WUs
i need a wifif extender
Stats are combined, no way to see which were CPU or GPU
@fierce steppe ok
but i need to plug in my second laptop
...
no free plugs
unless
*starts moveing things in my room around
moving
as i see cpu running all the time, got 4 wus but i know i've seen gpu work once and it finished in minutes
Pausing my CPU folding spot and my GPU immediately jumps back to full power
Power consumption goes down to like 70w with cpu folding on
I'm getting back-to-back WU now. It that the same for everyone?
nope
hmm
It seems to work giving back to back work units up until you fall asleep and then it gives you nothing
@hallow tiger me too
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
@fierce steppe Maybe it's when another region of the globe come online and they take over a lot of the work?
i put my pcs in sleep mode when trying to sleep as 2 laptops screaming with the power of a million suns is not easy to sleep to
That might not be a bad theory...
@small current Can you not limit the power they use (limit CPU core or underclock GPU) so they keep processing, but at much cooler temps?
nope
You can...
with the bios nope
Set the slider to medium and it'll be easier on the CPU
Looks like I'm gonna have to wait around for WUs.
Power limit the GPU to 75%
from MSI afterburner or whatever software your card uses
the gpu is getting no wus
I think you can also configure the F@H program and tell it how many cores of your CPU to use
You can, but you shouldn't edit the slot while you have an active CPU project running
so set it to finish, then when its finished the work unit change it
okay
For GPU - as @fierce steppe says, drop all your sliders on Afterburner and it'll run GPU WU much cooler
I have a 1660S in an ITX case (same as Linus uses in his livingroom) and it's a steady 74 and quiet (custom fan curve)
Servers still overloaded or is my inability to get assignments a configuration issue?
Laptop may be a wee bit louder, but will still manage temps a lot better
@rancid frost server
Good, everything's working on my end then.
i plan for a rx 5700 rig in a mini itx
Laptop may be a wee bit louder, but will still manage temps a lot better
@hallow tiger whats your laptop specs?4
r5 3600
Gonna rig up both machines to do the work.
Junkitron's paltry Piledriver will have to sit out, but its 1050Ti can do work.
:/ repeated upload failure. No good. (also no new WUs, really dried up in the last day or two, after things were looking better)
The Planet Smasher is ready with both 1080Tis in the meanwhile.
@rancid frost GPU's process much faster, so not abad thing
Not used F@H for a few years, any reason my CPU would be @ 0.00% or just no units avail?
damn afterburner wont let me edit the fan speed as its a laptop
no units
GPU is killing it, but wondered if it was just not doing CPU or something
Not used F@H for a few years, any reason my CPU would be @ 0.00% or just no units avail?
@deft hollow Probably stuck waiting for a work unit
Yeah lots of people are getting a work unit for either gpu or cpu, and no unit for the other
It's not a bad thing, yeah, but the Planet Smasher has an 8700K so it can contribute on the CPU level as well.
Every little freaking bit.
Cheers, not used F@H since ~2011 where it was all CPU based!
(1060 max q)
Its just luck what you get... But definitely seems to be less CPU work units going around from what people have been saying
no im only getting cpu wus
yikes. i had my fans on silent... no wonder it was 87... damnit.... made it full speed, insta drop@wheat lynx
I need to configure my PBO to not immediately set my 3700x to 1.35v and make it 82c
It's a good thing the next few days are going to be pretty cool.
@small current If you're trying to sleep then put all the sliders to the left to minimse power and clock. That should quieten it down so you can sleep and it can keep processing
halp
hah literally just kicked in to CPU units as i typed this
I won't have to turn up the heat at all with these babies running.
@small current Leave it at defaults for now then?
48 threads folding cooking mah CPU
k
Better to have 2 slots with less power or 1 with more?
@green monolith Jesus ... how fast are you getting through your WU with all those running?
Boom, GPU1 just connected.
I'm guessing there's no WU available currently?
@valid turtle Sporadic
I only JUST got two.
I don't wanna leave my pc on all night just to maybe get one :P
Morning all
'sup
Temps climbing, might have to hit the fan curve a bit.
oh y aknow waking up to see I have cranked out 414k points overnight
my cpu can't download wu
"an establish connection was aborted by the software in your host machine"
@green monolith So about 40mins? ๐ฎ
but my gpu is already folding fine
something like that, my poor GPUs look like they suck
or getting more complex stuffs
anyhow thats a Linux host
@green monolith I see GPU folding also uses some CPU too. My #1 core (6850k) is pinned, but my AMD pc spreads CPU activity out over 3 cores
Alrighty, the glass panel's coming off.
I've created a new profile for this operation. "JET ENGINE"
mine looks way too complex for my macbook to handle
@rancid flume laughs in GPU folding
@rich depot hot lol
sweating

That's a dense af protein
Yeah Macbook was super warm while doing a wu
It's working, though, GPU1 is leveling out at 68-69ยฐ and GPU2 has cooled right down to 47ยฐ.
Tfw I received no GPU wu
@fierce steppe What project code is it?
Clocks at 2012 MHz and 2038 MHz.
11747
How to set up wu for GPU? Mine is still idling all the time
Yeah says top left
@fierce steppe Covid https://apps.foldingathome.org/project?p=11747
Yeah, all the 11740-11780 are covid-19
The 14xxx is also covid as well
CPU : 13862 - 13863 - 14328 - 14329 - 14337 - 14528 to 14531 - 14572 - 14574 - 14576 - 14600
GPU : 11741 to 11781
Should I try folding on this
There are some codes are covid but stuck in non specific projects
@odd barn if you have enough cooling power, yeet
just go gpu folding lol. i just saw some guy's gpu folding and my cpu folding would probably take 100000 years to get to that level
cpu folding is useless at this point
cpu 5.2k points
gpu over 495k points
nice
sweating
cpu folding isn't power efficient
I realized that already xD
That ain't gonna stop me.
We have nuclear power here in Illinois, I'm gonna use every bit of those atoms.
But my gpu finished an assigment and now it doesnt grab a new one so it is better than nothing
if only i could utilize my $10,000 worth of bitcoin miners on folding 
Thankfully I can remote access these servers
Thereโs 3 I could CPU fold in, Iโm not concerned about efficiency
mine looks way too complex for my macbook to handle
@rancid flume What team are you folding for? I can't find info on 250658
@odd barn i have a question regarding remte folding
@odd barn Everytthing helps rn
250658 is a new folding team i just created an hour ago. I'm starting a folding community at my university 
I have another computer, an old I3 that is in my same network. How do I set it up so it can remote fold?
Oh that's cool
how long does it take for new teams to show up on the global database?
they will need to submit work units, then maybe a few hours
i see. i guess our team will be visible in about 6 hours then
Right now with all the extra load it might take longer ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Also extremeoverclocking is limited to show only the top 12,000 teams
the extra load not a big issue
So your team will need more than 825k points to be in the top 12,000 teams
top 12,000 isn't really our goal though
but foldingathome stats should show you
i just want our university community to be more involved in the global community
korean universities are very lacking in this aspect
just got a cpu wu
Waiting on a passkey. Any idea how long this takes?
nothing in any folder yet
took me like a min to get
i just noticed. 825k points isn't that hard. i'm getting 86k a day on my laptop alone
Yeah, a system with a decent GPU will do that in a day (normally)
It's not hard at all, especially if you can get multiple people working at it.
even myself it should take about 10 days
Top 5000 teams requires 4.5M
I'm looking at about 200k points some time in the next 2 hours.
200k points per 2 hours 
And that's only going by current estimates with no CPU workload.
add cpu workload it will become 200.1k/2hours
This is the kind of work the 1080Ti was born to do.
CPU is folding every 13 seconds lol
And I've got two of them.
@rancid frost my 2080ti lives for this
You have two laptops? all I have is a smart watch and a calculator
Alas, that thing wasn't around in 2018 when I built the Planet Smasher.
Otherwise I might have sprung for one of those while I was stuck working 80+ hours a week.
@fierce steppe plus a f**ked up machine that can fold gigantic proteans
The Planet Smasher is revenge, revenge against the world, yet here I am helping it out.
haha
I was supposed to have a VR setup hooked up to it, but I've been having trouble acquiring a headset.
Spare funds haven't been lining up.
...that, and I'm not very fond of giving Facebook money.
if you use two machines, do they need to have 2 seperate accounts?
Nope.
nope
No. Use the same account. Same username, team ID#, and passkey
really? i made 2 usernames lol
I'm using two machines right now under the same passkey and everything.
pc1 & pc2 lmao
Yeah you can use the same user info across many platforms
Larry has like 15 VM's using his username lol
he is CRANKING out some points
should i rent VMs for this?
my folding viewer is stuck at connecting, how do i fix?
the 3d model viewer
and yeah, the web viewer is also broken on chrome
viewer doesnt work on windows
ah i see thats fine then
Thats why it was able to work on your mac laptop
Why cant i get WS assignments?
too many people not enough work units
i was hoping to get a screencap of some epic molecule cloud to put into my tutorial guide
might be able to find it on googles
i don't take others' images lol
well im currently streaming my Viewer going to leave it over night @rancid flume Im also recording so if i get any ill sent them your way
the ONLY web browser i have gotten everything web based to work with is edge, thats it, everything els might work for a little but not later on
@rancid flume Its not taking if you request permission
nvm its demo
@rich depot use incognito mode for chrome
incognito is only for ponr
should my work server for CPU be 0.0.0.0?
is project 11760 also covid?
yes
yep
yea
11741 - 11781 for gpu are covid-19
hey @visual lily
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, 11776, 14328, 14329, 14530, 14531, and 14532.
thats the old list @spark veldt they've added more...
i set it on auto i think they'll prioritze covid projects for now
More!
Nice
CPU : 13862 - 13863 - 14328 - 14329 - 14337 - 14528 to 14531 - 14572 - 14574 - 14576 - 14600
GPU : 11741 to 11781
i don't have to manually set them right?
if we did where would we do that?
You can't manually set it to covid
aha ok nothing to worry about then
But if you choose research type as any disease, chances are you'll get covid
Do you have a work unit?
^
"15:15:22:ERROR:Receive error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine."
Oh
Nah you haven't got a wu then
"15:15:22:ERROR:Receive error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine."
@spark veldt You have the viewer open, don't you?
Im still getting the WU thing, should I just wait?
yep
Viewer doesn't work on windows, it will be stuck on the demo loop
That's what is causing that 10053 error
Close the viewer
ah
Wish the viewer did work on windows
There's a way to get it working
linux vertual machine i assume
nah
o.O
no?
Well, I mean that would probably work... But it'd be stupid
how do i see whether or not i'm getting qrb?
Still getting same error
after closing the viewer?
Yep
can someone with a working 3d viewer send me a screenshot of their craziest fold?
Fixed
i will be using it for a website announcement
how big do you want it to be?
there's a 3d viewer?
i wonder if i can fix the viewer
as large as possible
or is it this one
yeah this one
Thats so cool
if only you actually understand what on earth that bubblar monstrosity is
That is a protein
chain, isn't it
A chain, folded one, or at least in folding
cluster
all i know is ATP = power
hows that
Also protein
Spotty how are you viewing these?
looks more completed fold tho
thanks i'll just use this one
my viewer is not broken
looks crazy
spotty has a slightly more advanced computer i suppose lul
lul
I'm just using a fixed version of the viewer
Howd you find that?
someone posted a link to it on the forums
Aight
how do you work on the covid cause? only ones i can see are alzeimers cancer huntingtons and parkinsons
set it on all diseases
Covid is priority on "select all"
For anyone who wants to fix the viewer on windows
ok thanks
its a github file of someone who fixed the viewer and uploaded it
So install at your own risk
i really hope they aren't just mining ethereum and using the profit to get medical firms to work on cures
this is a gpu fold, the other fold i posted was on cpu
To install extract the files (7zip/winzip) and move the fahviewer and freetype.dll files in to the program files\fahclient folder and replace the existing files
yeah ok all gpu folds look crazy
It can be a little bit janky and it can causing folding at home to crash
but then you just launch it by clicking the Viewer button in the advanced client
tbh the cpu one's not exactly terrible either
are peoples viewers not working? i just opened mine up and seems fine as far as i can tell. though i only just started
works in linux and mac, windows version busted
^
im on windows
I still cant find the github
Does it say Demo down the bottom left hand corner?
on windows it just gets stuck on the demo loop
yes it does didnt notice that
found it
tap windows f and type github
there are posts saying that the cube protein structures are a bug
seems likely since they do not look normal
viewer doesn't like the core22 units
I'll have to test it if I get an older core21
so we are wasting computation on cubes?
^
oh ok
Whoa .... the proper protein viewer os mental..... it's like it's breathing ๐ฎ
aight i got a working view stream now
If anyone is on Linux running a GPU with Core22 they could post what they get in the 3D viewer
and on wich linux kernels does the folding software run?
@spark veldt would you mind joining my team? you seem to be on default
what number?
223518
done
223518 is the LTT code
yep
need to get my self some water cooling
I've done 16 folds.
running at 91 degrees
does kali count as debian os?
woop - 2nd PC incoooomiiing
My GPU at load right now is 64 degrees
Just intome for my gaming PC to finish it's current one
mine 67 degrees
@slow socket what GPU are you running?
gpu 75, cpu 82, over several hours though so appears stable enough for me
do your cpu and gpu work together or do they get seperate workloads?
separate workloads
seperate
503 errors on fah lb?
ok cool. just wondering since i loaded my cpu protein easy enough but went to view my gpu protein and the viewer is stuck on loading. progress is going up so i know its not frozen. probably just a bigger protein or something.
way bigger
yea
@slow socket Still will outperform CPU for folding
anybdoy else watch the next attempt and get sad when it resets. I feel like my computer failed . ๐
yeah
oh btw there are some codes like 13850 is also covid, but unknown details
yep I saw that one yesterday I think Walky
honestly wasnt sure which would run bigger. since im running a ryzen hexacore. 12 thread. wasnt sure how big, if any, effect it would have. looking like cpu almost aint worth much at this compared to gpu
im on 13850 for my mac
well, 12 core 24 thread ryzen here lul
crai in half of it
yeah @dreamy hazel 3900x for the win!
This is the longest my laptop has been use din 4 years.
hmm i dont seem to have anything filled on the viewer. is this something bad?
it's the demo model, not your one
if a cpu protein kills virus cells its better because then it doesn't cost as much to mass produce (right?)
smokey thats the demo unit
viewer is broken for this version, previous version it works
ah aight
I'll ask my uni for permission to our NVIDIA Turing farm and see how many numbers i can crank out
do it
yes
i could install this on all my school pcs and
OMG yeah @rancid flume
will probably have to do it 2 weeks later tough due to the approval process
Much better temps at base speed
That's a lot of computer
you get a beginner grade load at first, and if the system notices you doing those folds really quick (in my case 20-30 minutes) it'll also assign bigger cpu folds to you, this one rn takes roughly 4hrs
follow the git posted above and it fixes it. works well it seems aside from my gpu protieb still loading. any idea how long that usually takes on a 1060 6gb?
my set up
i have a 1070 8gb and its taking about 3 hours for my current fold
That's quite cool, mine is 85C
got rtx 2060 2 26 for me
i mean to load the viewer. or is that what you mean too?
what kind of internet usage does the program use?
viewer is bugging right now
i'm running a 1060 6gb too
@spark veldt add backgorund music to your stream or people wont stay
they gave me a 6 hour fold for my Q6600
aight
try restarting it khali
wow. my cpu after cleaning, re-therming, and also only on medium folding power
2 hr 50 mins left for my Q6600
tfw my CPU folds in 2 hours and 30-ish mins
Are you at Turbo Johnny?
That is super warm smokey
My 9900K is at 60 C cause I disabled Turbo Boost which for some reason disables MCE too

its up on 76C when i set it to low folding...
47 threads makes my server toasty
im tempted to down clock 8 of my cores to 3ghz (normally 4) and run it on that to keep the temps down
haha @green monolith
CPU 1 is at 79ยฐC
hottest core is 66 C
ryzen 3rd gen actually keeps cozy 82ยฐC max so far
crai in 85C
MSI motherboards are weird in terms of MCE
running 4ghz on all threads
ryzne 5 3600?
@dreamy hazel you have a 3900x correct? What are you using for cooling on that?
idk i cleaned and stuff last night to fix the temp, but seems like this "ENERMAX ETS-T50 AXE " i have from few years back is meh..
nah, 3900X
5 3600 is mine
ah ye
BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4, 250w TDP
Yea same
ahh okay
temped to get an AIO
crai in Stealth cooler
ouch
I need to find a beefy air cooler or 240 Rad so I can work at turbo speeds
all cores in 3.8GHz, 85C
@dreamy hazel Mine stays at about 76 degrees
3.6 9900K High 60s
@dreamy hazel I am using AIO though
what AIO?
CPU work assignment has jumped about 30k in the last hour or so. Are people finding it easier to get CPU work units now?
(CPU is the 63k one)
gah ... back-to-back run has ended. Give .. me .. moar....
100% my wu are CPU
@spark veldt Corsair h115i
Weird. MY 9900K is sitting at 50% only
hwInfo64
mine all setup for tonight get some WU's in while in sleep
^
taskmanager is incapable of that computation
how to set up GPU for wu??
whats your GPU?
Im just running gpu my cpu gets way to hot
1660
it wasn't already added?
Does it show up in the advanced control?
Woop - 2 minutes wait between WU and I'm off again ๐
gpu is 30C right now, no task for gpu
It must like my 1080Ti
right click on gpu and set idle off if you want it go now but other wise leave it and it will run
finally got my gpu fold loaded
ze revenge of ze default cube
damn lol, chipset is at 75C
what does "waiting for idle" means ? :ยง
its waiting for it to go into sleep mode
OK I got HWInfo64 now
14328 Covid-19 project
means its waiting for you to socially isolate from your PC
it seems you have it set to only do stuff when you're in idle
niceeeeee
Guys make sure you don't leave the Viewer running as it eats a significant chunk of GPU resources
you have this ticked?
@spark veldt my gpu is in sleep mode o.O
eh, sleep mode in my PC is a bit tricky when the PSU is down as well
Yea
@fierce steppe Should be 3d not cuda for the view/model?
So where do I see the Utilization in HWInfo?
Also HWMonitor shows me also the CPU is at 50% utilization only
is the load setting to full?
yes
"available for this configuration
15:57:30:WU00:FS00:Connecting to 18.218.241.186:80
15:57:31:WARNING:WU00:FS00:Failed to get assignment from '18.218.241.186:80': No WUs available for this configuration"
this just means there is no WU right?
ah yeah mine is 50% average
yeah, no WU
yes rai
first CPU fold
@spark veldt yup, no wu
Eyyyy that's a cute one
enjoy
gtg a bit, allergy to pollen is horrib
love watching my 2080ti push out some serious work
heyo, I just starting folding on two of my machines at home. I've had my Dual Xeon X5650's running all day, and now i
ahh hell, I just love seeing my whole system do work
CPU is working on a cool project.
How long should it take to get the passkey?
2-3 minutes at max
@main ether 12-24 hours
Synthesis between 2003 SARS and COVID-19.
right away. check your spam
i've got my R5 3600 + 1080ti gaming rig going. my cpu is up and folding but i've got a lot of 16:02:23:ERROR:Receive error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine. in the logs
Oh, I received a passkey really quick.
from what I understand windows doesn't display the visualizer at all?
@red igloo that's fairly common
@main ether For me it took today 2hrs
And, that's a bug
if you want to see the visualization, you need to download the older version of the viewer.
10 votes and 18 comments so far on Reddit
@west sphinx thank you
you can find the binary there
Yeah my CPU while folding is locked to 51%
@icy mango ah, good. I checked my score. It seems my dual xeons have been working all day
use 7zip to extract the old version and put it in the folder where the FAHViewer is
thank you
make sure to rename it to something else so you don't replace it with the current version
My basement trick appears to be working despite what people said years ago.
Sucking air through the bottom is making a difference.
is there any way i can screw up a tower cooler install in a way that its fine up to 70% cpu util and then can't handle the rest?
there's also a dependent file you also need to copy over to that directory, freetype6.dll
using the viewer from 7.4.4 can make it crash btw
@marble frigate what is your setup?
I've not experienced that @fierce steppe
I have
driver crash
i have a 4790k cooled by a ENERMAX ETS-T50 AXE for 3 years. i'm (edit: NOT) doing demanding things with it so dont generally have an issue. unless i start to fold and goes up to 100c
Ah, interesting.
Damng .. my model looks like a Purple Borg trying to assimilate a big cheeto ๐
Yeah, the model is insane.
also cleared and re-thermod last night but didnt do the trick
@marble frigate underclock it for folding only?
idk im just wondering if it's something i can do to improve it or its simply a crappy cooler whihc is fine for my crappy games but not for real utilization
LOL
@marble frigate did you put on liquid metal?
what temps shoudl you start worrying about? ive never really hit anything high so its never been an issue for me. currently on half power on CPU got 61C (which im sure is fine) and GPU i have 73C which is proabbly getting u there a little
Don't start worrying until about 78ยฐ.
Manufacturer will state what the thermal limits are
@cedar adder ?
@marble frigate your thermal compound between the IHS and your cooler?
You'll get more performance the cooler the temps are with nVidia, but clock speed isn't as important as CUDA count.
ah ofc
Did you use liquid metal?
It's conductive, so less safe in builds where the CPU is vertical
ah mine is definitely vertical
That's why I don't use it.
Hi everyone, I've been waiting 2 days for a WU now, is that normal? I've installed Folding@home 3 days ago and I've only been appointed 1 WU
I've just started to worry about my cpu's well being in general cause of heat
๐ฆ
you can't use liquid metal on a lot of coolers it is corrosive to copper
@real oxide Normal at current.
hwinfo keeps closing lol
Lots of server load.
@real oxide If the wait is>20 mins then pause and restart it. May take up to 20 attempts, but you should get one
@real oxide If the wait is>2 mins then pause and restart it. May take up to 20 attempts, but you should get one
@hallow tiger No!!!
Don't do it every god damn 2 minutes
If there wasn't a work unit 2 minutes ago there isn't going to be one now...
You're just going to end up DDoSing the servers telling people to do that
You should only do it if the wait time is unreasonable long, as in > 1 hour
I'd honestly just let it roll at this point.
hmm. im actually wondering if i put the fan on the other side of the cooler tower would make a difference. im not a pro at this at all ๐
The thing actually queries the servers for WUs every few minutes.
Yeah I do that if the wait time is like 30+ mins
You'll get one eventually, they just gotta come as they come.
positive pressure is the biggest thing in my builds. at least one more fan in than out
nice! got the vizualiser working! Thanks @icy mango
@fierce steppe I keep forgetting. If I see it and it's 10+ mins then I'll reset it
I've got one fan front, one on the back and that's that apart from cpu cooler ofc. everything is closed here for a while so no chance of getting more fans
"Please only do this if you are stuck waiting a long time for a download and the Next Attempt is too long. Spamming it won't help you get a work unit faster, it just resets the time window between checks so it will only help those who have been stuck for a long time.
Remember; this won't make more Work Units available. There are still ongoing issues with F@H pushing out enough WUs to meet the high demand. It will only help if your client has stopped checking for new work units due to too many failed attempts. "
omg mine is at 69.69% haha so funny
i have 2 fans in in the front, 1 out in the back; and the little plastic toy ontop of my case with ventilation grid up top is slowly melting
