i think at some point i heard the explanation that the gigantic fold projects need to be cut into miniature pieces before distribution, otherwise normal home computers wouldn't be able to do anything useful on them
wheat lynx
yup
dreamy hazel
and that being the main reason for the bottleneck

Yeh ... sounds like they need a few supercomputers to do that so that the rest of us can then surpass the supercomputers' processing power together 🙂
Ironic really.

is it possible to try and get the client to request a WU to queue up while one is in progress?
i feel that would boost WU processing across the board

no gpu jobs today rip
fierce steppe
is it possible to try and get the client to request a WU to queue up while one is in progress?
@solid thunder Yes, it is possible. Use the flag
next-unit-percentage XX
with XX being the percentage it reaches on your current work unit when you want it to start looking for a new work unit. (Value between 90-100)

@fierce steppe oh! how do i do that, in the expert tab of configure, right?
@solid thunder Yeah, expert tab if you want it to apply to all slots, otherwise if you want it to apply to just one slot (say, CPU but not GPUs), then you Edit the slot and add the flag there.
Read through this it explains it all and has handy pictures showing how to do it

alright cheers
i imagine it's a core flag, but to be sure, is it a client or core flag? 
fierce steppe
errr idk
@rich depot uses it he'll know
Just keep in mind if the new unit downloads early while the other is still working it will still count time for the QRB so you can lose a small amount of points

Is the next-unit-percentage flag a Client option or Core option in the expert settings?

It doesnt try more often btw, I have mu next unit percentage on 100 to max my QRB. It can be used in both slot and clients.

I'm at about 160k PPD for CPU's
Welcome
I just had a brilliant idea
I need to fold on my router

If nothing else, this is making me realize just how much I need to install some better cooling for my CPU
storm talon
same. i have a single 120mm rad and i can't fold on my cpu
odd sparrow
I'm honestly not sure what the CPU temperature is, mostly due to being on Windows at the moment, but the fans ramp up to what I assume is full if I let it use 11 threads
Seems to be clocked up from 3.6GHz to ~3.9GHz though

This is the 4th time my GPU is folding another COVID project. I don't know if it's just me or COVID projects were targeted to mid-high to high-end users.

anyone around that can help me out my cpu wus are giving me points but the gpu wus are giving me f all

got 2 friends into the LLT folding team
one has a R7-3800X and a 2080Ti
the other has either a 2700X or 3700X and a 1080Ti
past crest
How long a single 2080 Ti finish a single WUs?
pine cradle
While folding, sticker from the fan of my GPU just flew off to the table
vague flint
So just booted up, I hope it stays like this
Just moved it into the living room and the window is open, and it's a nice 46F outside
rich depot
Proper air cool
rich depot
damn
I just woke up, didn't do much last night it seems. only 60k points, thats 2 gpu tasks
rich depot
that must be a mistake right
vague flint
I doubled checked my indexes, points, and temperatures. Those are the right GPU slots getting the right work
970 is getting 430kish like normal
has to be a bug
it hasn't changed since it started
past crest
What is PPD?
vague flint
Maybe since it's much cooler it's not thermal throttling, and maybe the program has an index of previous work, so it's low "wow! such much faster. bonus points! lol"
Points Per Day
past crest
Ah I see
vague flint
It gives you points based on how fast you get work done and some other factors probably
past crest
I see
vague flint
I think something is really bugged. It's saying my 2070 is only getting 475k when it usually gets 1.1-1.5m
But all the other PPDs are updating normally
I'm just glad everything is running cooler, and that my 650 Ti is getting 650 Ti-esqe temps
vague flint
My systems have been kinda on and off because of maintenance/fine-tuning or me using my desktop. Hopefully in the next week it'll be much higher.
If I can consistently get WUs, my PPD should be in the 2.1-2.6m range
Sorry
Actually yeah that sounds right
rich depot
yeah, same here, I've turned off folding for a while cause just not getting wu's and didn't like the fan sound. if I can get wu's consistently I'd let it run more
vague flint
total points/week
The only thing we are losing by that we can achieve is points/24 hours
Besides that, just total points
past crest
You, my Vega use blower type fan
So it get freaking loud
So for me only one WUs per day
After that, I paused it lmao
rich depot
I thought ltt was the highest earner per day @vague flint ? cause we are even slowly catching up to curecoin
oh no, rip 😦
vague flint
In the past 24 hours, no
The only thing we are losing to curecoin in is total, but they're 10x ahead
rich depot
yeah sorry, I was looking at just the ltt page and that doesn't show the default, although I now checked out the complete teams page
vague flint
lol
rich depot
rich depot
still, was 2,5 a few days ago
but it looks like we are #4 in a few days, only curecoin, evga and default above us

eternal oar
any idea why compute_1 is 0% when folding?
and can i use compute_1 instead of compute_0 to spread the stress lulz
storm talon
if you can figure out how to access your video card's drivers at a low level let me know
lol
afaik there's no way to split compute modules
rich depot
to be fair, the amd software was leaked right? so if you have 100million and skill you might be able to do it xD
vague flint
yeah lol
hushed bobcat
@vague flint good to hear you got your temps under control, my 660Ti does about 90k-100k PPD
dreamy hazel
my 960 does around 210k

Hopefully now that's it's cooler I could pump closer to 50-70k instead of 35-50k
green monolith
I am at work so I can't check if mine is doing jobs right now
vague flint
If I can actually get any of the Ubuntu stuff working over ssh
nvidia-settings is borked and I haven't found a good guide
Can't even change the fan speed, let alone curve
green monolith
Lol @vague flint I can help if you can't figure it out when I get home
vague flint
I'm hoping it just runs faster, because I'd like to imagine it was throttling at 85C
green monolith
There is the thing you have to edit for coolbits=28
vague flint
Yeah I was doing that, wasn't working
green monolith
For fan control, oc control

I kinda just gave up. CLI makes my head hurt if I hit more than one roadblock

ok so i get the VM installed, remove the CDROM from the devices list and boot up the VM

I forgot my PC crashed so hexchat closed lol

Removed the CD Ron from the device list

i get a brief message "System BootOrder not found. Initializing defaults. Creating boot entry "Boot0003" with label "ubuntu" for file "\EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi"
then black screen

Was thinking about that too, seeing if I can get a discount, since the other PC I have doing 600k PPD is like $50/year
Sorry
$520/year
Is this ESXi?

Ah. Wish I could help. Don't know a thing about FreeNAS

i just watched a video on making an Ubuntu VM
did pretty much the exact same steps
only difference is i pick minimal install
guess ill go with normal install
but the install goes perfect
so idk
well i guess im installing 19.10 and he installed 18.04
so thats another difference
ACPI Error could not enable real time clock event
that does come up during install
any ideas on that?
stark bough
I’m thought of doing an “overkill Ryzen nas build “, but I wondered how much in power consumption, not just up front cost, would it cost in the end too instead of just getting used hardware
vague flint
My 3950X at 1.2875V @ 4.2Ghz pulls about 135W core, 160W VID with folding
stark bough
hushed bobcat
the HDD's would probably draw power idle power than the CPU and Mobo
stark bough
I think it’s 4-6 W per hdd
vague flint
Might be a good idea to go for an older Intel Xeon and a board with a bunch of PCIe X16. My 970 gets about 450-550K PPD and you can get them used for $150-$250.
Though they do use about 160-200W, so a little more
This is what mine is doing right now
hushed bobcat
you cant get 1060 6GB for around $150-$175
pretty much the same PPD but less power draw
the EVGA SC has one 8-pin

did anyone get the visualizer working?

@shut badge you need to downgrade the protein viewer to 7.4.4
pine cradle
while folding
shut badge
nextalcupfan i tried replacing the viewer with the one from that version, and it just crashes, i also tried replacing it with the one from the new github build, and seems to crash, some people say 0x22 crashes 50% of the time, but for me its 100%
vague flint
I gave up on trying to get the viewer to work
pine cradle
I mean, the sticker lost its grip because of heat from the chip and the fan

hushed bobcat
80mm
and no
only 80mm
8k fans
here is the 4U version
this one is a full system
ready to go just add drives
well i would buy more RAM
if you look yourself watch out for the backplane model
you want to stay away from anything that has SAS1 in it
@stark bough are you planning on changing the fans? i really wouldn't recommend it
stark bough
just like to know whats in them
hushed bobcat
stock SuperMicro fans are great

I alread have a define R6 i'd yet to fully populate with drives.

24x2.5 drives would fit in 2U unless it's really deep, then you can get 48 drives

its old but it still uses the ATX standard for the mobo
Im planning on putting an Epyc Rome CPU in one at some point
