So you have to do it manually?

trim plover Apr 1, 2020, 5:17 PM

so, unofficial question. my CPU can display what its working one, but my GPU just says 'loading'. does that normally mean anything?

@green dove give it a bit. when you upload the results if you can't find the work server it sends it to the collection server witch only gives base credit until it can send them to the work server.

someone else might know more and have a workaround.

weak bolt Apr 1, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

that would be cool, as gpu work units seem to get more points and such...plus I'm sure they crunch harder than cpu's

devout wing Apr 1, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

They do, that’s why they reward more points in general, points are determined by a base price and the time it takes to compete the unit

#

But there’s only certain projects gpus are even able to run

storm talon Apr 1, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

@knotty pike are you sure your isp isn't already lifting data caps? most are at this time

chilly widget Apr 1, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

What do you mean by data caps? As in increasing the speed for everyone?

storm talon Apr 1, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

I mean that anyone who has a limited amount of data

#

I know most of the Canadian providers have waived / removed limits on data usage. Speeds haven't changed.

chilly widget Apr 1, 2020, 6:59 PM

Aren't we talking about desktop PCs and all?

Like, using a normal household internet connection?

These things aren't capped, are they? xD

storm talon Apr 1, 2020, 7:00 PM

@storm talon yes, that is how mobile carriers do it in Germany. And they are ludicrously expensive.

#

But the state wouldn't allow any "normal" ISP to do that shit. I think one tried it a few years ago, and got really bitchslapped for it

Henceforth, I will be folding for EVGA's team. I will finish up these last WUs for LTT and then switch.

i spent most of today failing to get WUs

odd

#

because I just got another WU before my current one finished

smoky rose Apr 1, 2020, 9:12 PM

#

I have not seen this many WU in the network since I (re-)joined a few days ago. That's good. Would be even better if the servers had enough powah to deal with all requests.

#

I get a few rounds of "No WU bla bla bla" but I have a new WU downloaded before the current one is done.

I think each project is given a rate (difficulty) and that projects with a high difficulty are assigned to high tier gpus only.

Would be nice to see a little more information about the available projects.

@teal patio what does your client look like now (web)

distant pebble Apr 2, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

why is my gpu not doing any work?

odd barn Apr 2, 2020, 12:19 AM

#

Because there are no WU's available at the moment for your GPU

#

A lot of people who have a lot of PC's with high end GPU's all running WU's are more than likely the ones that are taking all the WU's at the moment

#

But I don't see this as an issue if I'm honest, just means that the servers can't keep up with calculations and stuff

distant pebble Apr 2, 2020, 12:20 AM

#

Fair. My gpu is decent so I'm suprised there's nothing for it

smoky rose Apr 2, 2020, 12:28 AM

#

No WUs available for this configuration

The server is under heavy load and do not have time to talk to you.
You messed up your configuration.
There really are no WU available.

1 and 3 are common. 2 is unlikely.
At the moment 1 is most likely.

#

Your client will attempt to get a WU, pause, try again, pause, try again. The pause is longer between each attempt.

distant pebble Apr 2, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

It just got one 🙂

#

but I can't see covid-19 as an option

smoky rose Apr 2, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

After a couple of cycles the pause will be hours. You can then pause that slot, wait a moment and start it again.

#

Select Any.

#

SARS-CoV-2 / Covid-19 was not on their to do-list. The categories are hard coded in the client.

#

They have given all Covid projects high priority and you get them by selecting Any.

distant pebble Apr 2, 2020, 12:31 AM

#

ok thanks!

#

Also, if I have to shutdown the pc for the night and turn it back on in the morning. is it a detriment to them if i stop in the middle of a WU>

storm talon Apr 2, 2020, 12:32 AM

it's not good practice tho. what I'd do is hit "Finish" about an hour or so before you plan on going to bed

Im quite new to this whole folding thing so may be a noob question, but is there different WUs avalible for the cpus compared to the GPUs? I always find WUs for the CPUs and almost never any for my gpus which is kinda sad since my CPUs are trash. Tried to delete the slot for my worst cpu and now i cant find any workunit at all.

Yes there are different WU's for CPU's and GPU's

does any of you guys having problem while folding?

#

its been 2 days of continous folding. and at some point at night of the 3rd day. my gpu broke.

#

when i woke up in the morning. my pc is off. and when i try to turn it on. just it power up for 1/4 second and then turn off. i did it 1 more time after turning off my psu and on again

rich depot Apr 2, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

ohdamn

#

uhm no, not to that degree

pallid meadow Apr 2, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

i thought it was a faulty psu. so i bought a new psu quickly before lockdown and store shutdown

round monolith Apr 2, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

Had that happened with a fried gpu once. unplug the gpu from the powersuppy and try

#

Was full short circuit in the power delivery part of the card

pallid meadow Apr 2, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

after i got a new psu.. i try turning it on again with the side panel opened. and the same thing hapened again. and i smell something burnt from my gpu

rich depot Apr 2, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

so faulty MOSFETs on the GPU? @round monolith

pallid meadow Apr 2, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

and i try to unplugged the card. my pc boot with no gpu warning(ryzen cpu)

#

and so, my evga 1070 sc died

round monolith Apr 2, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

@rich depot most likely. I never examined it that deply. I just tried with a multimeter and saw that i had continuity on the 6 pin on the card

pallid meadow Apr 2, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

sigh

round monolith Apr 2, 2020, 9:00 AM

was also an evga sc that died like that. Maby an usual problem on them?

pallid meadow Apr 2, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

woah. same card?

round monolith Apr 2, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

it was a 970 so a little bit older but still an evga sc card

rich depot Apr 2, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

i think fross got your issue nailed down stanley

could be fixable i guess but youd have to do some PCB reworking... though it would put your GPU on 12V if the mosfets failed
as a precaution for the future id recommend to run your cooling on full or near full blast when letting your PC run 24/7...

pallid meadow Apr 2, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

my only stress releif in this lockdown situation is gaming and discord with my friends. because i live alone on a boarding room. and suddenly my pc broke. sigh

#

@rich depot i havent tried to open my gpu. but maybe if evga didnt approve my rma request ill try it. i have computer engineering degree but i havent worked with multi layer pcb like one on gpu. yeah thankyou for the sugestion @round monolith

yeah i always monitor my cpu, gpu, nb temps because my pc run 24/7. and last i check my 1070 run at normal temps under load.

Yes there is only one 1060, you are correct 😉

This is a SARS2-nCoV-2 protein. It's called the 3CL-PRO, or the 3CL-like proteinase. It turns out that the virus actually generates all its proteins as one giant "polyprotein" and then chops the protein up to let them be free.

So COVID has a thing relating to HIV in a way

odd barn Apr 2, 2020, 1:50 PM

Yup

Many viruses / diseases such as cancer and HIV share the same structure wherein they split up cells and "explode" causing other cells in the vicinity to mutate or be taken over by a rogue cell
