if you fold on a laptop make sure you have decent cooling
@marble quartz my cpu is a i3 4030u so it doesnt generate that much heat
plus i put a stand fan directly at my laptop so the temps are pretty good

marble quartz
#

ah, that thing shouldn't generate a lot of heat

#

anyways it's bad for the battery be aware

#

if you leave it overnight

rotund flume
#

yup, the only prob (and i found this common on the folding forums) is that the gpu wu usually got the error Can get clGetDeviceInfo (-5)
dont know how to fix it tho

green monolith
#

pull battery and your good

untold oasis
#

Was the ltt server down yesterday

rotund flume
#

pull battery and your good
@green monolith nah im fine, the battery is dead soldered so

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

anyone else having problems with sending results? one of my WU's from last night won't send

crimson sierra
#

my cpu is stuck on download

rotund flume
#

anyone else having problems with sending results? one of my WU's from last night won't send
@rich depot server down maybe

marble quartz
#

I'm on 99% gonna find out soon

rotund flume
#

which project are you sending on? @rich depot

dreamy hazel
#

Don't worry, the problem isn't on your side; it's just that there's lately so many people helping that the distribution servers are out of capacity, so you'll need a bit of luck to catch a WU sometimes. @crimson sierra

rich depot
#

which project are you sending on? @rich depot
@rotund flume 11758

crimson sierra
#

ah i see

sonic crane
#

I aint getting anything to work with. My gpu wont start.

#

download 0%

@hushed bobcat this worked thanks, :))

dreamy hazel
#

if it looks like that everything's fine

#

for you too, squid

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...
@rich depot

hushed bobcat
#

sweet

rotund flume
#

that happened yesterday

green monolith
crimson sierra
#

euf

dreamy hazel
#

14533 is what my gpu is uploading

rich depot
#

thanks for the update, I googled the project but couldn't find any thing @rotund flume

trim furnace
#

lumirCry Where are my WUs? How do you peeps keep getting stuff

dreamy hazel
#

it's just luck

rotund flume
#

@trim furnace luck

#

too many hungry computer unit, too little wu to give

dreamy hazel
#

In case your "Next Attempt"-Timer is going above 1-2 hours, you can try and reset the timer by pausing and starting the folding cpu/gpu @trim furnace

shrewd dew
#

im setteing up my perants old laptop to fold

hushed bobcat
#

@green monolith is that the quad socket system you posted earlier?

green monolith
#

no

#

dual E5-2695 v2

rotund flume
crimson sierra
#

defuck you do with all those servers sakura

rotund flume
#

known*

green monolith
#

"stuff"

crimson sierra
#

o.0

green monolith
#

also its DAFAQ

dreamy hazel
#

lul

shrewd dew
#

maximum folding power

green monolith
#

my poor plex users

shrewd dew
#

lol

hushed bobcat
#

i figured you would have GPU acceleration on your plex server

shrewd dew
#

ohh you host plex servers and stuff like that

green monolith
#

yeah even have the nvidia patch applied

shrewd dew
#

hahah thats cool

green monolith
#

i do wonder how hard I can fold

hushed bobcat
#

you should post a pic of the rack Sakura

green monolith
#

with an nvidia GRID K1 card

shrewd dew
#

yeah

crimson sierra
#

stop flexing

hushed bobcat
#

as far as i know you cant fold with GRID or Tesla

shrewd dew
#

keep flexing

hushed bobcat
#

they arent supported

#

atleast as far as i can tell

green monolith
#

flexes*

shrewd dew
#

oh i have a gt210 in one of my computers 😦

supple laurel
#

i thought GN steve said they fired up there render server with 2 tesla v100's to fold?

rotund flume
#

@hushed bobcat grid k1 is supported, it is listed in the gpus.txt in fah

shrewd dew
#

waow sak

green monolith
#

hm

shrewd dew
#

so my gt210 would work?

hushed bobcat
#

isnt that a greylist? it has both blacklisted and whitelisted GPU's

green monolith
rotund flume
#

isnt that a greylist? it has both blacklisted and whitelisted GPU's
@hushed bobcat oh yeah, lte me check again

hushed bobcat
#

that switch is way to empty

green monolith
#

which?

hushed bobcat
#

Blue one

green monolith
#

the 1G switch?

shrewd dew
#

thats cool

green monolith
#

under it is my 10G switch

hushed bobcat
#

the SFP+ switch?

green monolith
#

10G is SPF+

shrewd dew
#

reeeeeee

hushed bobcat
#

yea

green monolith
#

24 port 10G

#

and under that is my IP KVM switch

#

that i really dont need anymore

shrewd dew
#

aww cool

hushed bobcat
#

have you heard of the new Mikrotik switch coming out?

green monolith
#

as all my hardware in rack is IPMI/idrac enterprise enabled

hushed bobcat
#

CRS354-48G-4S+2Q+RM

green monolith
#

i stay far away from tiks

hushed bobcat
#

Really?

green monolith
#

yes rly

shrewd dew
#

REEEEEEly

green monolith
#

wont be apart of my home net ever

hushed bobcat
#

they seem to be nicely between consumer and pro level gear

green monolith
#

enterprise gear or go away

rancid flume
#

Need advice

shrewd dew
#

why eterprise?

rancid flume
#

what happens if yo run a windows update in the middle of folding

#

is the work saved?

#

can you continue after reboot

supple laurel
#

yes it saves every 15mins

green monolith
#

because enterprise generally is built to last and has more features you know you can shake a stick at

supple laurel
#

if you can pause it so it will do a save and you won't lose any progress

rancid flume
#

got it

#

f**k microsoft blyats

shrewd dew
#

ohh taht makes sense do you use decomissind stuff or new?

green monolith
#

stuff from ebays

shrewd dew
#

ohh is it cheaper?

green monolith
#

so decommissioned more or less

#

way cheaper

supple laurel
#

so i'm guessing ther server is getting hit hard? i can't even upload my finished WU

green monolith
#

i want a 10G connection to the net

supple laurel
#

ok linus

green monolith
#

pfft

#

I have a use for it

hushed bobcat
#

I looked into getting an Arista switch like the one Wendell did a vid on

spark veldt
#

10g for me is 5k a month

hushed bobcat
#

but the command line serial management and inability to get firmware updates shy'd me away

green monolith
#

homelab environment is perfectly fine

rich depot
#

Rip, my 38k gpu task gave an error while submitting, so no points and all the work for nothing

green monolith
#

and honestly this point/click is kinda crap, you dont learn anything

trim furnace
#

@rich depot their servers seem to be overloaded atm, I think it'll retry submitting

#

I GOT A CPU WU PogChomp

rich depot
#

Nope

green monolith
#

their servers are overloaded for the past week and a half because linus called everyone to fold more or less

spark veldt
#

Yea

trim furnace
#

That's somewhat of a good thing, no?

hushed bobcat
#

It is

spark veldt
#

Kinda

green monolith
#

yes and no

hushed bobcat
#

but they ran out of work to send

green monolith
#

yes ppls are willing to fold

hushed bobcat
#

and their servers cant keep up with the requests

green monolith
#

bad because not enough tasks to go to everyone

supple laurel
#

I want to fold! i'm cold

coarse citrus
trim furnace
#

@supple laurel tht's actually why I wanted to fold

green monolith
#

DCCs a Server to @supple laurel

#

IRC speak ^

trim furnace
#

Fans running all at 100%

spark veldt
#

cooler than mine

coarse citrus
#

i use gpu only WU

supple laurel
#

ryzen? thats a little hot.

trim furnace
#

i7 4790k

spark veldt
#

mine was running 97

hushed bobcat
#

ahh speedfan!

spark veldt
#

r5 3600

supple laurel
#

intel that might aswell be cold....

trim furnace
#

okay I'll let it run. It said ETA 5 days which scared me but went down to 3h

supple laurel
#

most start with a base of 5days. give it a few mins and it always updates

green monolith
rich depot
#

it says it is working but i dont see anything happening and i just wanna help

snow escarp
#

Probably just struggling to download a WU

hushed bobcat
#

Just put it in the background and let it find some work for you QuickFix

green monolith
#

ok changed from 24 threads to 47 threads

rich depot
#

okay so i just need to wait a bit

green monolith
#

for that

#

its gonna melt

hushed bobcat
#

what are the temps on those Xeons?

supple laurel
#

just a reason to get new hardware?

green monolith
#

atm CPU task completed

#

so its down to 36°C

#

seen it as high as 79°C

rich depot
#

should i just wait for i to find work or @hushed bobcat

dreamy hazel
#

my 3900X runs at 80-85C, should be nothing to worry about. PBO will gradually reduce core clock so it doesn't go far above 80 right?

hushed bobcat
#

i wonder if it would be better to have 2 cpu slots and assign the cores to each cpu socket

#

@rich depot all you can do is wait, there servers cant keep up with requests

green monolith
#

@hushed bobcat also server is set at fan speed = FULL

rich depot
#

oh okay

green monolith
#

i wonder if i change my fan speed in my R720 if it'd sound more like a jet or not

hushed bobcat
#

8k RPM fans?

rich depot
#

thx for the help i will come back if i need more help

green monolith
#

12k

hushed bobcat
#

ohh lord

spark veldt
#

12k rpm?

hushed bobcat
#

both my supermicro servers have 8k fans and they're pretty loud at full tilt

supple laurel
#

so hows the tornado?

spark veldt
#

thats more than my helicopter does

green monolith
#

hm looks like i might need to get new ones at some point

#

they are spinning ~9.3k

hushed bobcat
#

maybe they are restricted?

supple laurel
#

i was looking at some 3k delta fans for my desktop. my 1700 LL 120s don't like my 60mm rad.

green monolith
#

not really

#

supermicro SC846 case

#

aka 4U 24 bay

hushed bobcat
#

ahh yea i just built a plex server for a friend in one of those

#

I'll never use SAS drives again lol

green monolith
#

lol why not?

#

"where is the smart?"

hushed bobcat
#

basically yes

#

smart data gives way more than SAS

green monolith
#

SMART is not to be trusted ever

hushed bobcat
#

also i lost like 6 drives in the first week

green monolith
#

dont see why ppls fixate on SMART data

supple laurel
#

sakura thanks for the CPU job 😉

green monolith
#

SMART = I am perfectly fine
real data = drive is freaking ded jim

hushed bobcat
#

one drive failed so hard it locked up FreeNAS

#

even though i thought SAS enterprise drives were not supposed to do that

green monolith
#

and yeah i dont use ZFS

#

Hardware RAID all the way, change my mind, you won't, many have tried

hushed bobcat
green monolith
#

add a GPU to it

#

you know you wanna

supple laurel
#

GPUs*

hushed bobcat
#

well its not mine, i built it for a friend

#

also FreeNAS doesnt really do anything with GPU's

green monolith
#

your friend knows he wants to

hushed bobcat
#

as far as i can tell

green monolith
#

eww FreeNAS

coarse citrus
#

from what ive seen cpu WU arent worth it as GPU WU run cooler for me and i make a lot more points doing it

#

i can do a WU in 1 hour flat and get 171k points

hushed bobcat
#

you are technically right FzR

trim furnace
#

o-o

supple laurel
#

but there is no reason you can't do both

hushed bobcat
#

but there is work only CPU's can do

spark veldt
trim furnace
#

temperatures maybe

green monolith
#

if your watching power useage leave it to GPU only

spark veldt
#

cpu contributes to a vaccine more than a gpu does

coarse citrus
#

even gpu only it uses cpu power

hushed bobcat
#

yes it needs some CPU to feed the GPU

#

usually 1 core per GPU

spark veldt
coarse citrus
#

i see it using 10% of my 9900k and making it run at 60C on my custom water loop leading me to beleive its an avx load

hushed bobcat
#

it is

forest belfry
#

Yes

green monolith
#

anyhow

#

going back to anime

hushed bobcat
#

I actually re-did my overclock to use an AVX offset so my 8700K would run cooler

forest belfry
#

I disabled turbo on cpu...

coarse citrus
#

thing is i cant run my 9900k and gpu at 100 load like that cause my cpu is OC to the point to where gpu and cpu id thermal throttle even with custom water cooling

forest belfry
#

Create a new power plan

#

Set max cpu state to 99%

supple laurel
#

add more cooling?

#

open a window and cool down the room?

coarse citrus
#

but, gpu only with my high OC pulling 350W i can comfortably have my gpu idle at 45c

hushed bobcat
#

Honestly FzR if you can't run both CPU and GPU full tilt in a custom water loop something is not right

supple laurel
#

^

coarse citrus
#

my 9900k is a dud OC it needs 1.35V just to hit 5ghz non avx

forest belfry
#

Because the 9900k is a space heater

hushed bobcat
#

I'm running air on my 5GHz 8700K and 1959 MHz GTX 1080 Ti

#

i ran OCCT full system stress test, pulled 170W on the CPU and 350W on the GPU

coarse citrus
#

i have a golden 2080ti im running good OC on

hushed bobcat
#

GPU hit 69C and CPU hit 88C

supple laurel
#

i have a 2700x at 4.2 with 1.4v with a 2080OC and my 480rad does not care

hushed bobcat
#

after 5 min

forest belfry
#

1.4

coarse citrus
#

depends on load for me if i fold only on cpu i stay at 80C but if i do gpu and cpu my cpu hits 90+C cause my loop order is pump>gpu>rad>cpu?2xrad>pump

hushed bobcat
#

loop order shouldn't matter

#

both Jayz2Cents and Linus did videos on it

#

also you have 3 rads and you're still overheating the CPU?

supple laurel
#

how much rad space do you have?

hushed bobcat
#

what you running 1.45V?

coarse citrus
#

it matters when your parts put out that much heat

#

i have effectively 720mm of rad (a 120,240, and 360mm rad)

#

and yeah my voltage is high on cpu cause its not a decent silicon cpu

hushed bobcat
#

If you had the one 360 i could understand, but with that much radiator you shouldn't have a problem

#

i mean IMO you should be able to add another GPU

coarse citrus
#

2080ti is expensive

crimson sierra
#

nah

hushed bobcat
#

Disclaimer: please keep in mind im not a water cooling expert, i've only water cooled once and it didnt go well

#

this is just knowledge i got from watching videos and doing research on watercooling

forest belfry
#

That's a lot of radiators

coarse citrus
#

my coolant is 25C with my gpu at 100% usage for the past 30 minutes

forest belfry
#

Is your pump doing alright there?

coarse citrus
#

yeah brand new corsair d3 pump

hushed bobcat
#

that coolant is really good

#

seems like it cant move the heat out of the parts

forest belfry
#

He has large amount of coolant soo ofc

hushed bobcat
#

i actually had that issue on my watercooling setup

#

flux from the rads had partially clogged the waterblock fins

forest belfry
#

I would try touching the rads while it's overheating to see if they're actually hot

#

And if they're then u need more fans

#

Or better fans

not loading any team information

coarse citrus
#

my loop is fine its just my current dud of a cpu, (ive got a 9900ks on the way to replace it)

trim furnace
#

🤔 use the snipping tool next time maybe

supple laurel
#

^

crimson sierra
#

^

#

or alt + print screen

forest belfry
#

Or use snipping tool hotkey

plain isle
#

due screen

hushed bobcat
#

can you post your VCORE under partial load FzR?

forest belfry
#

Windows + shift + S

#

I think

hushed bobcat
#

maybe even the ViD

trim furnace
#

POG I didn't know that @forest belfry 10/10

forest belfry
#

I made a macro for it

#

Very useful

plain isle
hushed bobcat
#

oh wow

plain isle
#

not loading team info

hushed bobcat
#

if you used that shortcut you can just paste the pic in Discord

forest belfry
#

Yes

hushed bobcat
#

thanks @forest belfry

coarse citrus
#

im not worried about my cpu temps anymore cause like i said in a week or so i wont have it anymore so as long as my system is stable im not messing with my OC

forest belfry
#

Why would u think the ks would do better?

coarse citrus
#

but my rig is at 5gh all core all the time with 0 avx at 1.4V

#

ks is a binned 9900k

hushed bobcat
#

ks is basically a binned k to run 5Ghz all core

stark bough
forest belfry
#

Yeah but it needs a lot of cooling as well

hushed bobcat
#

actually thats almost the exact overclock i had FzR

coarse citrus
#

and i got it for less than the price of a normal 9900k cause i know a guy who works for oem manufactuers who had a couple laying around

hushed bobcat
#

and my CPU would run 75-80C under partial F@H load

#

i think i was running 1.376V

plain isle
forest belfry
#

@stark bough I'm too dumb to understand that

coarse citrus
#

i got my cpu used a while back from a guy i knew tried to OC it and didnt do it right, i used ot be able to get 5.2ghz all core with a 1 avx offset but this cpu has been degrading even at stock settings since i got it

plain isle
#

been solid at 4ghz all night no thermal throttling

coarse citrus
#

i know he messed this cpu up cause he sold it to me with a board that turned out to be partially fried cause he blew the vrms on it

#

so the fact this cpu is degrading doesnt surprise me

forest belfry
#

Omg

hushed bobcat
#

Wow

coarse citrus
#

hence the 9900ks replacement i have coming in

plain isle
#

im just after a new graphics

dreamy hazel
#

how do you even fry VRMs

hushed bobcat
#

i suppose if you had literally no airflow, and ran a Small FFT for like 24 hours....

coarse citrus
#

too high of a voltage and not enough cooling

vernal oasis
#

I got a gpu wu finally

#

first one in 24 hrs

dreamy hazel
#

i'm also quite baffled your cpu was still running in general

green monolith
#

hahahaha

coarse citrus
#

and with the high power a OC 9900k can draw its possible

#

yeah like i said ive had it about 6 months and i went from being able to do 5.2ghz at 1.38V to now im stuck with just 5ghz at 1.4

silk kestrel
#

i was just watching the video on folding@home, but I was looking for the site linus was talking about where he said to google "ltt folding team number" is he talking about the forum post, cause I was looking for the statistical site, anyone know how to find it?

coarse citrus
#

team number is 223518

silk kestrel
#

ah thank you 🙂

dreamy hazel
#

yeah, i get that, but I doubted anyone with a decent enough mindset to set up an OC high enough for that would also be considerate enough to actually read up on what the vrms can supply, and be careful enough to not actually fry anything; up until now

gusty path
#

Wow, restarted my PC and got a bsod, a few repair attempts and then return to earlier copy of windows before FAH was installed, after running it for some 60ish hours... interesting oO

coarse citrus
#

well it wasnt just vrms he fried the rgb on it also (he hooked the 12v to 5v rgb) so it also had that messed up

#

like he basically messed up the rgb on it and i think it messed up the boards power delivery also

vernal oasis
#

i just run 4.8 in FAH

#

5.0 always seem unstable

hallow tiger
#

@gusty path Sounds like something else. It would have BSOD right away if it was FAH

vernal oasis
#

4.9 is unstable too unless I go over 1.375V

stark bough
#

Sounds like he treats voltage as a suggestion

gusty path
#

Yah gonna have to look into it later don't have time atm

#

But not had any bsods before on this pc

hushed bobcat
#

yea i set and AVX offset of 2 on my 5GHz overclock for F@H, allowed me to lower voltage like 0.1

vernal oasis
#

running boinc on cpu (dont have cpu wu right now) and fah on my gpu

stark bough
#

Anyone here run a 3700x on stock clocks? What voltages are you running?

hallow tiger
#

@gusty path Might be worth running a chkdsk on next bootupu. Quick and easy in case it's disk related

#

@stark bough I think I'm on 1.3.v

#

OR maybe 1.2v - can't remember

gusty path
#

It did that after the bsod before running Windows repair by itself

hushed bobcat
#

Every PC in my house with a GPU is running F@H, and my Ryzen VMware server is running BOINC Rosetta@ Home

stark bough
#

Are you on it right now? Mind DMing me a screenshot of your Ryzen master config?

vernal oasis
#

I have all my pcs set to FAH and WCG

hallow tiger
#

@unkempt geode Leaving the Mobo to manage auto-turbo was horrendous. Voltages top end of 1.475 randomly, so it would overheat doing very light work.

vernal oasis
#

my laptops are glacially slow at it but hey its something

stark bough
#

Yeah I’m planning on running a low power stock clock config

hallow tiger
#

@stark bough Sorry - I don't use it. It was all set in the BIOS

stark bough
#

Oof. Well thanks.
I kinda regret getting 3700x at times since so many people got 3900x and 3600x

#

And it’s a bit easier seeing videos for those

vernal oasis
#

well

#

i got 8700K instead of 1700X

#

but it runs fine

hallow tiger
stark bough
#

Oh nice.

#

3000 series basically feels like it broke all the rules for first gen

#

Faster ram, less picky

#

Damn I should have gotten 3900x now I want to try full time VMs -.-

hallow tiger
#

@stark bough 3700x is a beast for 65W TDP. I have 3900x waiting to go in my gaming PC (replace i7-6850k), but it's a lot more money :/

#

Only worth it if you do creative stuff

stark bough
#

Yeah, I don’t do video editing as a career

lilac plover
#

3900x is nice, just having built this machine. VMs actually run (coming from an old i5 4 core 4 thread lol)

stark bough
#

I recommended a 3900x to a video creator friend of mine

#

3600 just didn’t feel like it would do the occasional core heavy workload I sometimes ask it to

vernal oasis
#

my friend is still on a E8600 but i hope they can afford 1600 AF eventually

hushed bobcat
#

@stark bough I'm using an R5 3600 in a VMWare ESXi rig

stark bough
#

Plus I figured I could just drop in another AM4 later in

hallow tiger
#

@stark bough In theory the 3700x is slightly better at adobe encoding, but all other productivity the 3900x smokes it

stark bough
#

What’s TDP for wraith cooler again? I’m getting 80C on it at times

hushed bobcat
#

the problem is there really isnt a Server grade Mobo for AM4

stark bough
#

I’ve been spoiled by my U14S

#

Crazy to think that 1920x = 3700x

lilac plover
#

@stark bough which wraith? lol

stark bough
#

Prism, lol

#

3700x stock

lilac plover
#

"Currently, Wraith Prism offers support up-to 105 a TDP of 105W" -guru3d

vernal oasis
lilac plover
#

my 3900x hit highs 80s, low 90s when all core folding

stark bough
#

Do I really want to take down my system for 15 minutes to swap the stock paste with MX-4

#

🤔

#

that’s folding time

dreamy hazel
#

mine stays below 85 at all time epsilon

hallow tiger
#

@stark bough Do it. We#re all waiting for WU to be available, so not processing atm 😉

solid thunder
#

my system hovers around 70 - impressive considering its age, outdatedness and output

stark bough
#

yeah I figure I’d try doing it during a dry stretch

vernal oasis
#

my 8700K hovers around 85-95

dreamy hazel
#

eyyy

#

my 3900x just got a WU

stark bough
#

Ooh a WU

lilac plover
#

@dreamy hazel while folding? huh wonder what mine is up to considering I havent OC'ed or anything

"Projects 11759-11764: These are high-priority CPU projects" what is my GPU doing? 11579

dreamy hazel

if it hits 90 then you might want to consider giving it a slight limit

vernal oasis

my gpu is doing 11760 lol

why is my GPU doing high priority CPU WU? 😛

i am confused how do i earn the point because i have been working for 1 and a half hours and havent gotten a single point

you have to submit a complete WU and then wait for the score to be updated

(it updates every 3 hours)

oh okay thx for the help

cloud flower

My points didn't get "allocated" for 2 days. then all of a sudden the missing points showed up

just been loading that part for days

is there somewhere you can check how many gpu WUs you got in the last 24h?

you have to have a passkey to get above the base credits and you have to do at least 10WU to get all points

you should see attempts and next attempt numbers moving, the next attemp is updated every few seconds until you get assigned work

found here

#

mine is working rn so i cant show you an accurate example

weary epoch
#

also cool to see fah at 768 petaflops

cloud flower
#

Would be cool if it went a bit more to 1 exaflop

sonic crane
#

If it is just unknown?

weary epoch
#

it might get close to an exaflop if there were more WUs available

coarse citrus
#

were already faster than the top 7 supercomputers combined so thats cool

cloud flower
#

Yip 😄

weary epoch
#

meanwhile, rosetta at home's running at about 1.2 petaflops. sucks to only be able to use CPUs 😦

cloud flower
#

and more than twice that of Summit

weary epoch
#

even more impressive because summit's 148 petaflop figure was from linpack. I bet folding isn't as flop-dense

HI all! new here! I have 2 machines. Do you know if I have to setup 2 folding identities and ask for 2 passkeys? Thanks!

rancid frost
#

Nope, just one.

#

Use it on both machines.

solid thunder
#

nope, you should be able to run both under one identity

silver saffron
#

Thanks!

coarse citrus
#

put the one passkey in both

solid thunder
#

afaik it's even possible to control both from one

vague flint

Lol I was just about to share the aggregate link

rancid frost

I tried to control both from one, didn't work too well

solid thunder

yeah, ehhhhh

No matter what I did, wouldn't work

hushed bobcat

Really? im controlling 4 from one

solid thunder
#

i think you can monitor multiple clients from the adv control though

cloud flower
#

lemme try again

vague flint
#

I might require some advanced setup it you want it to be reliable, but I have two setup

#
  • Installed Ubuntu
  • Installed Folding
  • Installed Nvidia drivers and OpenCL.so
  • Set static IP in netplan
  • Set remote password and allowed ip-range
  • Connected client via "+ Add" in bottom left
hushed bobcat
#

4 clients

hallow tiger
hushed bobcat
#

even shows an Estimated Total PPD in the lower left

vague flint
#

Mine are running kinda average right now. My main CPU isn't running (3950X)

#

Though the PPD number is kinda useless IMO if they can't assign WUs fast enough

coarse citrus
vague flint
#

but it seems to have gotten better since I started a couple weeks ago

#

That makes me wish I just spent the money on a 2080 Ti

#

Though I would be like $700 more in the hole than I am, lol

#

What I love is that my 1700X is 10-110% faster than my 650 Ti 😂

#

It almost makes me want to unplug my 650 Ti since it does so little, but I guess that little bit is better than nothing

coarse citrus
#

too bad they cant use some h.264 encoding id get my stream card to encode/decode for them lol

vague flint
#

It'd be sick if they could. I wonder what kinda performance that would be, considering H264 on a 3950X is worse than Turing NVENC, and it can use almost all of the 3950X for 1080p60

#

Like imagine all those NVIDIA GPUs pushing out an extra 300k-450k PPD

coarse citrus
#

i have an elgato pro pcie stream card in my rig that has a dedicated h.264 encoder

vague flint
#

HD60 Pro?

coarse citrus
#

yeah

vague flint
#

I didn't know it had a dedicated encoder. I also have one

coarse citrus
#

yeah

#

I wonder if it's any good (for streaming at least)

quick one.. 180249 PPD for 3700x and rx580.. that is that like in line to what i should expect?

small current
#

i have 3 wus running

coarse citrus
#

yes just finished one

vague flint
#

That seems a little low, but I'm new to this. PPDs seem like they can vary

hushed bobcat
#

i just rebooted a computer and got 2 right away, 1 cpu and 1 gpu

#

working on the second gpu

vague flint
#

For example, my 1700X hit 95,000 PPD yesterday, but is currently sitting at 55,000 PPD

safe prairie
#

i have a 1070 and i7-4790 no wus the last 8h

vague flint
#

Pausing and Starting again seems to help you get WUs

hushed bobcat
#

as far as i can tell the PPD varies by the exact job you're doing

safe prairie
#

i have done that all day

cloud flower
#

setting up my other rig, what do we put in Stats links?

coarse citrus
#

yes pausing and restarting makes i t ask for WU more often

soft bone
#

I think the 18K was just the CPU

#

😛

#

idk

hushed bobcat
#

also pausing and starting may help you get more WU but the main issue is they are overloaded, and spamming more requests will make it worse

soft bone
#

Adv control is saying like 601500

coarse citrus
#

true i only do it after about 15 minutes

safe prairie
#

well, i get quick responses in the log saying no avalible wu

soft bone
#

and its steadily rising

safe prairie
#

seems to only ask two IPs for WU, is that same for you?

vague flint
#

spamming more requests will make it worse

Ah, my bad

cloud flower
#

and nope, remote clients isn't working for me.

hushed bobcat
#

The general rule of thumb is if your next attempt is 2 hours or more then you can pause and restart

I'm amazed that we really are trying to learn everything there is to know about this

okay, was gonna say lol

cloud flower
#

My internal IP range is 172.16.102.128/25, at the bottom of the configure/remote you can set the allowed IP ranges and blacklists. so I set my range on the whitelist/allowed

odd barn
#

I just realized

vague flint
#

172 is local to your PC, not your network. Your network should be 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x

odd barn
#

13850 is binding proteins now

#

It was separated previously

and took over days to complete

#

No, I use 172 INTERNAL range.

#

my external is something else

#

172.16.0.0/16 is also an internal range.

vague flint
#

???

odd barn
#

172.16 is a class b private network space

#

as is 192.168..

vague flint
#

Oh I didn't know that

odd barn
#

or 10.0..

vague flint
#

I thought all 172 was just local to your pc 😅

odd barn
#

Nope

#

you're thinking of 127

vague flint
#

AH

#

forgot

cloud flower
#

people mainly use 192.168 and 10.0 cause.. easier

vague flint
#

I always mix them up

cloud flower
#

yeah 127.0.0.1 is localhost

#

😛

odd barn
#

172.16 / 172.25 / 172.26 are like... Cisco ranges

hushed bobcat
#

so the PC you want to monitor with (main PC) is 172.16.102.128 right?

odd barn
#

That's how I remember them

cloud flower
#

no, 128 is the network, with a 25 subnet. 172.16.102.130 is monitor pc

#

102.198 is client1

hushed bobcat
#

172.16.102.130,127.0.0.1 in both ip allow

#

for the client

odd barn
#

Wait what exactly are you trying to do?

hushed bobcat
#

then add 172.16.102.130 in the advanced monitor on the monitor PC

cloud flower
#

you mean 172.16.102.198 in the advanced monitor on the monitor pc?

#

otherwise it would be monitoring itself

vague flint
hushed bobcat
#

ohh right

#

yes

vague flint
#

Oh, wait, you weren't using the advanced monitor? lol

cloud flower
#

wait, interesting. I got it. Ip's were all right. Ports were right in configure but the remote port had somehow become 36331

hushed bobcat
#

hmm

#

well all mine have different ports

but ive seen several that use the same port and it seems fine

Maybe you accidentally had the port selected and pressed an arrow key instead of tab?

cloud flower

Perhaps

use your own username

you're just waiting for a work unit

Just stare at a remote desktop connection of cameras I set up remotely for a site over a server

#

that's it

vague flint
#

Lol that's awesome

odd barn
#

it's boring lmao

vague flint
#

But still

chrome iris
odd barn
#

I guess so lol

#

There are no assignments available, just keep waiting

hushed bobcat
#

yea it looks fine

#

just no jobs available

odd barn
#

Well, they're updating the configuration requirements

chrome iris
#

So its just the full servers and not a borked setup

hushed bobcat
#

keep an eye on the logs

pine cradle
#

Do each project differ to other?

hushed bobcat
#

if you get a job and you see an OpenCL error then you have a config issue

chrome iris
#

K awsome thanks

I mean, you have a killer GPU, but I think it still depends on the job

cloud flower
#

well, the community thanks you for your contribution 😛

coarse citrus
#

this is a smaller job

cloud flower
#

and the world I guess

vague flint
#

I've gotten jobs for my 2070 that are anywhere from 30 mins to 3 hours

coarse citrus
#

it was a 40 minute eta when i started

I really want to know what their 6x Titan V setup does for PPD

cloud flower
#

I'm wondering if it's worth throwing an HD 7950 into my other rig to fold but not sure how helpful it would be

coarse citrus
#

i want to set up my laptop with its 8750h and 1070 to see how it goes

vague flint
#

If they're similiar to the 2080 Ti, then likely 18-21+m I would guess

hushed bobcat
#

looks like 7950 is around 110k PPD

pine cradle
vague flint
#

It apparently does a lot better than my 650 Ti based on that spreadsheet, so I'd say go for it

hushed bobcat
#

id say thats worth it

vague flint
#

My 650 Ti is getting 40-50k PPD

cloud flower
#

Ok lemme throw it in then. It's just sitting gathering dust

chrome iris
vague flint
#

Is there a reason the AMD GPUs seem to be insanely good with this?

coarse citrus
#

high core count

cloud flower
#

^

chrome iris
#

342,277 points so far

coarse citrus
#

thats also why GPUs slay on here cause of cuda

hushed bobcat
#

using 8 cores on my 8700K gets me 100k PPD

cloud flower
#

you know, it wont help MUCH but I'll throw my server at it too. It's old

chrome iris
#

I think amd gpus are better for compute as well

cloud flower
#

but it's got a little bit of CPU power

#

same why AMD was better at mining too

vague flint
#

8 cores on my 8700K

Threads?

dawn gazelle
#

I haven't even thought about upgrading my 1080 TI in years...don't even really game much anymore...and now I come here...look at a spreadsheet, and want to upgrade.

hushed bobcat
#

actually it seems nVidia is a little stronger folding

cloud flower
#

Xeon processor so.. will have some input at least

hushed bobcat
#

@vague flint yes i keep doing that

vague flint
#

lol

#

I mean according to the sheet, the 5700XT does better than the 2080

green monolith
coarse citrus
#

so is it a 9700k or a 6 core 8700k

green monolith
#

there

hushed bobcat
#

i allocated 8 of the 12 threads to F@H

#

i leave 2 for the GPU

#

and 2 for the rest of the system

vague flint
#

i leave 2 for the GPU

What exactly do you mean? What does this do?

coarse citrus
#

ok so 8700k

fierce steppe
#

You need at least one CPU core free so that the GPU can talk to the system

hushed bobcat
#

yes you need 1 CPU core free for each GPU in the system

fierce steppe
#

Otherwise you take a performance penalty where the GPU ends up stuck waiting for the CPU to be free

coarse citrus
#

the gpu WU still needs cpu for some AVX loads that are part of the gpu WU

hushed bobcat
#

but i found my 1080Ti gets a little more PPD if i leave it 2

cloud flower
#

kinda a fine balance to tweak it all right

dawn gazelle
#

Do we need to specifically configure the cores? What if we just leave it as whatever the default is?

pine cradle
#

Guys, does overclocking makes a difference?

hushed bobcat
#

i used Process Lasso to set the affinity for each task

coarse citrus
#

yes

hushed bobcat
#

@dawn gazelle you can leave it default, im just trying to min/max

coarse citrus
#

a rock stable OC can increase your ppd but if its unstable at all you will either BSOD or the WU will fail and not complete

hushed bobcat
#

@pine cradle yes is does make a difference, but be aware if your setup is even a little unstable it will throw out all the points you earned

cloud flower
#

So you gotta be sure your OC is stable otherwise it's not worth it

vague flint
#

Ah.... maybe that's why my 1700X went from 90k avg to 50k avg when I increased the threads from 14 to 15 with 2 gpus... lol

pine cradle
#

Yeah, I'm not pushing too much my GPU

#

It's like +135 core

coarse citrus
#

my +115/1200 helped a good bit on my gpu

vague flint

#

Bottlenecks are killers

#

rather have the extra available to prevent bottlenecks.

hushed bobcat
#

there you go

pine cradle
#

My room smells like computer parts right now

coarse citrus
#

thats bad

hushed bobcat
#

while that is a nice smell

#

its probably a bad sign

pine cradle
#

unless if something smoked inside

hushed bobcat
#

wow 88C

pine cradle
#

also, that's with the OC

hushed bobcat
#

id pull that OC off

vague flint
#

TBF, my 650 Ti is running at 81C, but I can't adjust the fan curve past 30% and I didn't clean it or check the thermal paste yet >.>

pine cradle
#

goddamn my pc case is HOT

#

not that burning hot

vague flint
#

What case do you have? And what's your fan setup?

hushed bobcat
#

sounds like you need more airflow

pine cradle
#

Yes

#

my case

#

sucks

vague flint
#

Oh thank god, I didn't know Tctl was just for fan curves and has an offset.

hushed bobcat
#

actually i think the problem is it isnt sucking....

#

😛

coarse citrus
#

i pulled my front fan filter off my case since ive been running F@H for over a day now non stop

#

more airflow

vague flint
#

^ same

coarse citrus
#

my gpu has yet to see above 50C and cpu is staying around 60C

pine cradle
#

does opening the case help cool down the entire rig?

coarse citrus
#

yes

vague flint
#

Mine is... kinda warm

#

But I have an OC

coarse citrus
#

more air= lower temps

hushed bobcat
#

if you have poor case airflow opening the side panel helps

silver wing
#

77 on that isn't bad

coarse citrus
#

i also have 3 rads and 9 fans in my case

pine cradle
#

then I'll just gonna bust out my stand fan and beam it into my PC

hushed bobcat
#

i have enough fan in my case that opening the side panel is only 2-3C difference

pine cradle
#

Filipino style

vague flint
#

side panel depends. Having the front off would probably be better

coarse citrus
#

depnds on case airflow

vague flint
#

yeah

#

So I think some of you saw this already, but yeah

pine cradle
#

lol

rancid frost
#

imdoingmypart.gif

vague flint
#

I found the fan on the front was much better than the side panel. Even though it could push a lot more air on the side, the GPU and especially the CPU prefer from the front

#

lol

silver wing
rancid frost
#

That's a big flop.

vague flint
#

Wasn't it at 470 PFLOPS just a few days ago?

#

I guess they finally got some new hardware results?

pine cradle
vague flint
#

I.E: It'll probably be even higher in a couple days? Lol

rancid frost
#

With the servers lagging, it's been complex to get ahold of information in real-time.

silver wing
#

Yes it was 470 TFLOP

hushed bobcat
silver wing
#

And before it was 470 it was only like 50

hushed bobcat
#

3/15 week F@H completed like 15X WU than normal

coarse citrus
#

scientist using F@H to make global warming happen so they can keep a job

rotund flume
#

now its back to mornal trajectory?

silver wing
#

hahaha

hushed bobcat
#

what do you mean now?

rotund flume
#

normal* ffs

hushed bobcat
#

the week is only half over

hushed bobcat
#

but the shortage of WU is hurting

vague flint
#

Hopefully LMG can get that extra work server

odd barn
#

Hoping they can get it within a week or so

#

The more people that help out, the better

#

not just folding, but server hosting

#

afaik, Azure servers are pretty expensive aren't they?

hushed bobcat
#

i have a PC doing Rosetta@ Home

coarse citrus
#

i find the blue background of the F@H web client a little misleading since they are melting everyones rigs in the name of science. they should use the elmo fir gif i posted above as the background

rotund flume
#

do you guys experiencing gpu wu shortage atm?
im 46 attemps in and theres no work for me

hushed bobcat
#

ive heard that helps get WU for F@H

vague flint
#

Like, I wonder what sort of hardware the work servers that currently exist use, and I wonder what sort of hardware would be useful to saturate their internet as much as possible within reason, as well as their power and thermal budgets, and just raw hardware to compile WU assignments
