when it finishes it'll tell you the points so we can just wait and see ๐
it'll come through ๐
can you give us a screenshot of the Assigned, Timeout, and Expiration Times?
yep
you need to change one of the GPU tiles in task manager to Compute or CUDA
actually a shot of the whole WU section would be nice
3D utilization isn't what get used for folding
uh oh
RIP
lets see
it looks like you got that WU 19 Hours ago
and you'll finish in 2 Hours
so 21 Hours total
for the first shot its the 11th
for the other 2 its the 14th
Expiration is 7 days from the Assigned Time
yeah, but I swear I could see it somewhere the first time I started pholding
so if your hardware cant complete a WU in 7 days it throws everything out
ehm
i think it is in the web client
it's in the web client XD
why do I have eight days for the one that I'm decimating
ohhhh.. it's a bigger WU
JEEZ!! Over 300K PPD???
thats about right for a 1060
not bad
Holy SMOKes
the times...
how long will it take? 3 hours
how long do I have? eight days
sorry, not used to it going so fast ๐
I'm used to about an hour a fold
I cant remember if 11763 is a fast project or not though. Some projects are twice as fast/slow as others
estimated PPD will change with each different project
you can't fold it more than seven times!
WUs you get can be from different projects
also you can if the sheet is large enough
ohhh
really really large ๐
pFFFT
mythbusters lol
hexhamer!
@rich depot click the tab with your gpu whats that getting
oh goodness
ehm.. what did the F@H client do...
my browseer
it opened just fine with everything else on my laptop
but it refuses to play nice
chrome or firefox?
chrome
make hte switch
because I'm one of those weirdos
firefox is more secure and chrome doesnt play nice iwth it
I don't know how?
it always uses chrom now
on the real though you can install firefox and then go to the URL for it in firefox
even if its not your primary browser
I work for JWZ and know some of the firefox team
sooooo
apart from having used it since 2004 im biased xD
ive never liked chrome much tbh
sometimes it wont
nice
even after a windows reinstall i couldn't get it to play nice on the test bed lol
I honestly love chrome the best
firefox has a bunch of official extensions that block google from monitoring your PC when you go to their site
same as firefox
I know it "sucks up ram"
but I found chrome runs the best on all of my computers
and uses the least ram
with the right tuning it still sucks up way more ram lol
I can get up to 20 and it's still faster than everything else
and never had any ram
leave gmail and facebook enclosed and they dont spiral out of control
swapped to firefox, all good
well
Firefox doesn't play videos ๐
what? does for me lol
I tried... firefox betrayed me
it sucked butthole
if it didnt work with F@H
noh, I'm just using chrome
and advanced control
Firefox has never played nice for me ๐
anything special you're doing?
on firefox?
just browsing in general
yea idk like i said most of that is run in containers
i use discord browser version because the app is broken, no global mute
cant turn it off entirely
DnD
firefox has global mute per tab tho ๐
dudes, go to #public-chat or whatever to keep bitching about what browser is best
just agree to disagree and start folding
๐ข
good ๐
am folding and were talking about theee... best one to use for F@H web client
annddd
got sidetracked
I know
sorry ๐
oke, well, Good nesssss
I'm folding so fast!
omg, this is the highest I've ever seen
?
LTT Broke 5.5 Billion Points yesterday
pfft
129k assign rate. it used to hover around 125-126 the last few days
@hushed bobcat do you happen to know how many years it was from the start before ltt hit 5.5 billion points total?
not a clue
GPU is 2.5 times faster than my CPU
top right and bottom left
thats not terrible then
I still think the 1060 should be a little faster
its faster than my 8350k which is newer but only 4c4t
yea thats waht mine looks like jonkza
only im a 3800x
so its 4ghz
grrrr, hyperthreaded octo core, using two logical cores per...
waht
nuffin
thats pretty hot, what cooler
the stock cooler on my 3800x has it running much cooler im pretty sure
nice shot
I have the "stock" cooler I got wit hthe pc, it's liquid cooling
ooh! I can download the status observing programs now!
just let me reinstall OCCT lol
I have the same cooler on my 2600x with arctic silver, runs fine
what should I uusseee
core temp, just told you @jade spade xD
you said it was becasue it was in your taskbar
i guess 85c is standardish
my cpu is at 80
but like
idk its been so long since i looked at air temps
gonna use it
i havent paid atention for years i was on water for like 8 before iwent back to air on m 8350k cause lazy
@jade spade yeah I use coretemp because it works good and has that option
i like using OCCT because when I overclocked regularly it was the best monitoring app and stress tester ni one
coretemp is also โค๏ธ tho
all my early OCs were done using it
i need to get a CPU in a CNC lathe sometime though and solder a probe to the die IHS
idk
i have a fan blowing on me at my desk
its louder than my whole rig
always on when im at it
its still not that loud compared to past stuff
and its pretty โค๏ธ
occt is not scary to me
occt just looks pretty
thats all
it uses the same data cortemp does
i think the devs talk to each other a bit
that doesn't seem safe xD
going to guess thats your VRM's
0 is your CPU Package
I dunno ๐
if the rig is running anything at that temp without crashing it would be the power distro to your cpu
oke
heh
that's scary
probably
my disk has a temperature monitor on it ๐
wow
thats your hard drive lol
what app is that, occt?
yes, ish pretty
yea looks like
is 56 degrees a good CPU temp?
man why does my evo+ 1tb run so much hotter than my 512gb pro
even tho it has a heatsink on it
96C @rich depot
yea my package is hitting 88.7
mmmaaaaaybe its time to bust out my old radiator and install it again xD
i'd need a new block tho
this was my previous monitoring ehm... program if you can call it that
grins
I'm at 30% on my GPU WU :0
109C ? O.o
yyyeep
dafuq, get some cooling going asap
that's the power distro
i'd get a fan on those VRM's
๐
usuallt 110-120C is about all you want on VRM's
wha...
ooooof
i paused my wu for a bit
came back to look
14541
says 11hr15m
@_@
seems to have stabilized at 7hrs 53m
thats still a long time for an rx5700xt
here's a pic of VRM's failing due to overheating on a GPU
https://cdn.wccftech.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-1070-EVGA-FTW-VRMs-Catching-Fire-2060x1159.jpg
just about blew a hole through the PCB
ive seen this happen
@jade spade depending on the caps of your VRM they may be rated for temps like +105C,+125C,+150C rarely +200C but these are the max ratings which are only for a limited time of 4000 to 5000 hours
in person
pay respects to my 2 7950 windforce cards
xD
yea it was like that
one did and then the other not long after
I just had a friend with a EVGA RTX 2080 Hydro blow the VRM's while folding
@jade spade Around the CPU socket
so just.. slap a fan on it?
I'd like to see your cooling setup, but yes just point a fan in the general area
usually you only see temps that high with AiO watercoolers
no, I mean literally sticky tape a fan on it
Jeez!!! if my cpu ever got that hot????
I have my fans at 100
i wouldn't attach anything to the VRM heatsinks, just point a fan at them
your CPU will throttle before it gets that hot
jeez, my CPU is blowing waaaarm air
currently at 109
yeah feels like a wrong offset or broken temp-probe but holy hell get it to cool down
point a case fan directly on it, attach a heatsink with thermalpads or whatnot
@hushed bobcat no not you ... I meant @jade spade with his 109C VRMs ๐
yes i know
i linked a pic of HIS motherboard
he posted the model number earlier and i looked it up
according to his screenshot its an MSI 760GMA-P34(FX)
@jade spade what mainboard do you have exactly ? ๐
That one
yeah so the one where I painted in the VRM area
and that would explain the temps
@hushed bobcat no problem was confused too ๐
AiO cooler
AiO radiating the heat and GPU releasing hot air to the top so you got a cooking corner where your vrm is
you may want to add a pulling fan on top and if possible a pusher in the bottom
i love having my PC open and by a window
it takes in cool air and conditions it so the room doesnt get to cold
stares at the sticky tape, confused
you don't wanna see what my graphics card looks like
i got an asrock challenger 5700xt and 3 of 4 fan shroud mounts have broken off
reason being, the power cable to it has so much tension that it put to much pressure on them
xD
OHHHH
its hanging from that and one remaining mount barely
That's make sense
i dont know what im gonna do yet about it
and a 290x that was on water
the one i had paired with it i gave to my business partner
its
oof
xD
that board bent so many ways
lol
how badly did the board bend on that
got a fan on it, now I just need air to move faster
my computer runs kinda hot
well
spews a lot of hot air
but I think everybody's does?
your CPU and GPU package looked fine
like 55-60C on the CPU and 60-65C on the GPU right?
my 8350k is over clocked 300mhz and its getting package temps of 50c avg
xD
โค๏ธ cold garage air
its 43f outside temp
once i get more cards in there im opening it for sure
this dude sold the rx580 out from under me so now i messaged a guy on craigslist with a 1070 for cheap af
if that falls through maybe i just buy another new rx580 or if im feeling really spending another 5700xt xD
theres some great used deals on ebay as well
for about what i was gonna get the 580 for
bruhhh that temp xD
thats like back when i lapped my athlon 4000+ and it was in a 22c room running at 23c lmao
@jade spade what are your new temps
whole lot better
That's still 40C cooler!
and set up a pulling fan
uups ๐ had to turn on the pull fan
it was off
and i feel a whole lot more comfy with my board
I have fan blowing on them and a fan pulling the air that's blowing over them
GPU is still smoking my CPU with the folding though
eeesh!
it's warming uppp
they started 4 minutes away from eachother
GPU is working on the COVID 19 project
still at 300k+ ppd :0
the capacitors are warming uppp, am scareeddd
I'm not used to that much
I thought 700 was a lot
faning
pfft
hey im looking at what's in my area used
does anyone here have stats on the 1660
its supposed to have oversised FPU
for its price
if you dont count power consumption
im factoring PPD as the primary deciding factor but power is also a concern lol
Yea
Its not a big enough issue for ne
It may be on my 7950 when I test it tho, or the 290x if I test it
Idk if the 7950 is even good lol
My risen gets the same as a 7950 lmao
Ryzen
Silly phone
Went afk a sec
I may run the 290x just cause I can
I'm gonna be setting up a 980ti as well so I'm looking up Nvidia cards to pair with it now but who knows
Him maybe it's worth it
I forgot about the lower tdp
i tried to get used 980Ti's off of eBay but i was always outbid
Just only if I have the slot
ended up with a GTX 970
I'm trying out Xubuntu on my dell tower
Frien doesn't have room for it
for folding
Giving it to me to fold on for now
oooh, it's nice and cleeannn
so is the 980ti he has xD its been in a static bag cleaned from before the outbreak lmao
he took off the fan shroud and deep cleaned it
then reapplied the thermal paste and cooler cause it was on water
or i can have the block again but so much work
Hey guys, I've got a FAH client running and the GPU keeps getting assigned to the work server 192.0.2.1 which isn't a routable IP (part of http://www.iana.org/go/rfc5737)
Does anyone have any idea why this keeps happening?

downloading folldinngggggg
oh... sorry not me
6800 should be supported but it's also ancient
yea thats a 10 year old GPU
in other news idk what i did with my NIB accelero xtreme IV for my 290x lol
@frozen lark gpu:0 means it's an unsupported GPU thus it assigns a not resolveable workserver basically to keep you from requesting work for this slot which will never be able to do work
ah okay, thank you ๐
AFAIK your card only supports OpenCL 1.1 which is no longer used by most of the computing software
yeah, it was my old desktop I had laying about, thought i'd chuck it at FAH, but maybe not ๐
worth a try ๐
okay guys dont laugh
i have some mental health issues
and
long story short theres a 6ft pile of recycling (boxes mostly) in mny room from when my partner died last yea
rand i think i lost my cooler bewhind it xD
LOL
its bad
XD
Halp
i can get to the 290x
but i moved the cooler
it used to be stashed in the loft bed
now idk lmfao
probably at the bottom layer of that pile
so im gonna start cutting into it i guess
i actually did once already this is like since christmas from bed level
didnt finish it then
well I've put back my extra 7 feet of ethernet cable and have given up on F@H on xubuntu for the night
Why Linux: It will run well on older hardware that can be re purposed for a dedicated folding machine. You can disable automatic updates. It will perform 5-10% better than Windows due to Driver and OpenMM Core 21 issues in Windows. I have found it to be more stable than Window...
lol fair
i woke up at 4pm so im holding F@H support vanguard here lol
while digging into that pile and watching trailer park boys
i was legit gonna hit it tomorrow honest, but i moved it up a day xD
wanted to get to my parts closet
ooh, niceee
I also am trying to figure out
umm
my wireless dongle
to work on it
am so collddd
and still foldinggg
I wanna live in my pc
it's warm
oh no!
eesh, almost done with itt
should I stay up till it's done?
try restarting again?
oh boy
if you want to be sure its okay to restart, put your save somewhere that wont lag and then set interval to 3 minutes
xD
how do I change where it saves?
fastest way i found was to reinstall tbh
and when you do reinstall
complain to them in the reason for "other" xD
so they fix that
they're also not used to such a huge amount of people using their service
Eighty one percent!!
EXsasdl;skadfjasdf
whaaTT
nice gpu...
What freaking work load did you get???
how long is the freaking ETA @rich depot
that's over 10 years!!
oh my gosh
if it actuallyl...
that would have just..
goodNESS
Imagine having a WU actually THAT big
come onnnn wuuuu, finnnishhh so I can sleeeep
morning yall, dumb question, mine wont even display that im having to use the FAHControl panel to see everything....
i dont think that unit will be relevant by then
is that normal?
firefox
thought so, ill just restart after this one is done. things are getting warm in here lol
chrome browsers seem to be working now
I would pause and restart my computer?
I use Opera
pause it and it'll get to a safe spot I think
woah someone who still uses opera
It me
my step dad used that browser back in the 90s but he uses firefox now lol
I didnt even know it had existed that long
i work for JWZ so my decision was easy lol when you know the devs you can help a lot more easily
uh yea xD
the benefit of it was that running the browser server side meant in the 90s that things were faster on slow workstations
It doesn't eat RAM quite as bad as Chrome so I've stuck with it
they were the only quad core rigs back then, and it was 4 whole sockets XD
omlll
imagine using that nowadays... with as big of processors as you can fit in there (as many cpu's in each ehm... chip?)
Is there any way to tell your client which server to ask for units from?
thats why virtualization is a thing now
nowadays that kind of rig has 896 cores per blade
in a 1u
at least, at maximum according to intel's site
:0
yea lol
imagine actually needing that many cores..
$$$$$
good lord
get yourself an XATX mobo with 4 sockets and buy the best off the shelf xeon
build it yourself
or find one used
@drifting palm no you cant chose your server
rare but it happens
i can't even imagine
CPUs normally aren't fast enough to really get a massive bonus for fast work
ehm... 4 mil
the exponentially higher processing power throws all the math off
if it scaled linearly and the cpu was avg clock 2ghz?
fuck i don't even know i'd need a calculator
okay back to folding(boxes) xD
was cooling off it got hot working standing up on my bed
Does anyone know how much the 6 GPU system is getting at the LTT Office?
all the heat from my folding rig is sitting up there
good lord!
no clue
that should be easy enough to extrapolate from the list of GPUs
scroll up
if its going full tilt just add all 6 GPUs together plus wahtever CPU he said in the video
imagine if LTT took every single computer part they had and put together as many computers as possible and then set them all to fold on full
or CPUs i think that one was a dual socket board right
10 bucks says they already have
PFfft
that's a given
Its the big ass threadripper right?
what's linus' personal folding profile
100 says they've still got more parts
igo look
yea no shit im just saying i bet they did them all already because they've had like a month
but who knows maybe they spent it doing other videos and building out the data bandwidth side for the F@H work server
Its a dual socket
F@H stats user summary for LMG_jakkuh. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research, and prevent diseases with distributed computing!
the 7 GPU folding PC is running dual Intel Scalable
8180's if i remember right
Its 6 RTX 2080Ti equivalents
and 7 Titan V's
errr does having your cpu consistently at 100% degrades its performance over time?
In a liquid loop
@small relic as long as temps stay in line no
F@H stats user summary for Faxon. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research, and prevent diseases with distributed computing!
If you dont overclock then it should keep itself at a safe temp
my i7 9700k is clocked to 4.97ghz and the temps are between 80 to 85c is that too hot?
@drifting palm ohh you're right its 6 GPU's
what an average points per day? 411,570 here
@small relic That should be fine, personally i like below 85C
@opal sorrel that GREATLY depends on hardware
Im getting 1,167,667 right now
:0
how high is too high, just curious
there is no limit
CPU temps?
kididng
i figured as much, only a 3800X and 2080ti
cpu temps, 100C is too high?
@drifting palm yeap
this is just a rule of thumb but 95C+ is usually too hot
^
i see thanks
I try to stay under 90 to be extra safe
@opal sorrel That system should pull over 3 million PPD
still running gooooood on the temps
2080 Ti is 2.8-3.3 mil by itself
wow how are you guys getting so much points, im only at around 83k per day
and i have a 2080
am kold
You probably dont have a gpu work unit
need jakket
you need the passphrase and 10 WU completed to be eligible for QRB (Quick Return Bonus)
@opal sorrel That system should pull over 3 million PPD
@hushed bobcat ...omg i forgot a comma. we are good. thanks.....its too early
currently i only have cpu work, its on and off
Thats why
80kppd isnt bad for cpu then
second
CPU is worse at folding than GPU
CPU is ALWAYS worste than GPU if it's for math calculations.....
not necessarily
yea but sometimes the workloads require the math it does best so it's worth running faster CPUs
well
If you have floating pont calculations*
My CPU gets about 85-90K and my GPU gets all the rest. About 1.05 Million
my 3800x is getting around the same PPD as the 7950 i have will if i run it for 125w less power
er 75w less, im tired cant math
switched values
https://i.imgur.com/4e8kq5c.png Second time it's for COVID :p
I think everyone is tired
Im getting a covid one right now too
yea ive bee nwaking pu early
had one for a while
to game for a competition
we finished the qualifier round today tho so i can sleep tf in
It's noon here now lol
I'm trying to get into a schedule and wake up earlier than 9am
its 3am here and i dont sleep till around 8-9am rn
sooo clooose
"early" is before 4pm lmao
It just turned 5 am for me
DP
that's not okay..
whats the web name to see the project agian>
no i meant am
whaaa
0600 here
its 3am here
you...
pacific
i worked at a club
and doing rentals for nightlife
nvm
@small relic you can go the your IP address with the port 7396
and im an insomniac
it all lines up
i get off work at 1-2am on early shifts and then im up all night after chilling xD
I've got some insomnia
it's not too extreme at least
we have shifts later than that
still have lotta trouble sleeping or getting tired
Interesting, Exact same ETA
UUUFF
I'm gonna get a jacket!
someone scream at me if I come back without a jacket
Can you like install the F@H client on your computer, not to make it fold, but to manage other folding servers??
yep
oooh, jackettt
just delete the slots for the client you dont want folding
Router Folding
MOM start folding you b
Actually i Could Fold on my router if i really wanted
if this gets longer, I'm gonna cry
I have a dual core.. god knows what
actually two of them
desktops
cold feeet
I need to get in bed
warm
if nothing else
I'm also 16 ๐
ehm
What do you mean?
I don't know?
is it online and logged in?
Please be more specific
the port is wrong for one
also you blurred out the IPs for some reason
Frog it, https://i.imgur.com/bf8nuDB.png
ahh thats better
set the allowable IP range on the client you are trying to connect to
Euh whuut?
you need to remote login too the client you are trying to connect to
so clooose
so in this case 192.168.207.110
That's a linux server
did you install FAHControl?
On the linux server?
yes
It's a CLI ubuntu ๐
Ubuntu feels like it runs really cleanly
then CD into your ETC folder
there should be a Folding or FAH folder in there
let me check my Kubuntu install
yea
nano that
DONE!
i didn't bother with any of this lol. I had a spare monitor with enough inputs for 3 PCs so i set up VNC server on the first one xD
n'other covid WU
can you try and restart the FAH service?
then see if you can connect
you may even have to restart the whole computer
I am dum-b
yea.. the server
just try restarting the client for now
i have restarted the server xD
if that doesnt work change the allowable ip from a subnet (192.168.207.1/24) to a range (192.168.207.1-192.168.207.254)
Whats the benefit of running the FAH Control on a linux server rather than the rig running the client
@hushed bobcat where? In that config, but what ip's? :x
its the 3rd and 6th
Whatever I'll just throw it in
HTTP server and Web Server
with the - right?
put in what i wrote 192.168.207.1-192.168.207.254
oiii
that should allow every computer on your local network to connect to it
@drifting palm hes not running FAH Control on the server hes just running the Client and wants to manage it from another computer
ah
i need to find the config for mine, ill send a shot of it
shots ๐
๐
Sowwy D:
@grizzled stirrup
Or is that line for my GPU?
looks like you need to add proxy, command-allow-no-pass,command-port,and password
Kinda extra lines xP
your command port should be 36330
I thought multiple systems on 1 port would conflict so i made a new port for each one
turns out not to be the case
and I would delete and re-add the client to the host computer
ohh this may be obvious but set your IP range to your own IP's
otta get sum f00d
not mine lol
back
wb
i thought of 2 things
- probably a stupid question but have you confirmed FAHClient is actually running on the Ubuntu Server?
- Firewall is blocking it
Well it somehow works now lol
I however, can't see the output ๐ฆ
It's the stupid output ๐ข
demo
your monitoring it on windows correct?
yas

There is a thread on foldingforum. I think it's called "Volunteer to fix the viewer". There are updates and known bugs there.
ohh yea that looks right
I think the GPU cores feed wonky data. That is the CPU core.
you're probably right
Oxygen och hydrogen atoms = purple chaos.
@grizzled stirrup glad i could help

Anyone know how to get the web control to work on chrome, the interface keeps reloading and i cannot get it to display. it works great on Edge, and i got it to work the first time i installed it on chrome, but now it seems to be behaving badly.
use edge
sometimes you can get chrome to work by running in incognito mode
but edge seems to work no matter what
You can open the dev console and refresh or use incognito mode. But it will usually bork itself again. Use another browser.
โ๏ธ
so this is a common problem and not just me
yes
Firefox is my default browser.
It's just Chrome that does not play with FAH web control.
yup
someone had an issue with it earlier but it was probably another one than the common one chrome users have
didnt know where to start poking at it, had him reboot and he didnt complain again xD
Sometimes people confuse project description not loading with FAH in "my browser" doesn't work.
Ahh, โX doesnโt workโ, the bane of all IT people everywhere
Hokay, I'm up and running on two PCs and they both seem to be performing well enough given that they're not OC'd monsters - they're just my gaming PCs.
But I've been running all night and neither user name is showing ANY results on the Folding At Home stats page.
With a stick, any time, but that doesn't answer my question. :)
oeh spanky
How do I see my results?
windows or linux?
I can see that page I think.
Well that are your results?
Don't use Chrome.
I'm not.
And then there is also https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/ but they also rely on FAH stats
Oh, what browser are you using?
On the EOC site, left hand side, change TeamID to User Name.
Got it. Taht's perfect.
By checking a user or team that is handing in WU 24/7 you can see if the stats have been updated or not.
Check Hourly production.

The points are awarded later. They don't get lost.
Been running since just after midnight my time - something like seven hours.
Just out of curiosity, how much am I reducing the lifetime of my equipment doing this?
I'm running with a mild OC on the CPU and no OC on the GPU and at medium settings, but not on idle only.
I'd REALLY like a proper screensaver that shows the current protein folding process.
I've not been able to get the viewer to show me anything but the demo.
Hahahaha. I had a side gig in Tucson, Arizona where I'd get old farts to pay me to teach them how to use their computer and then be on-call for them. I'd eventually wean them off the service with a flow chart a lot like that (minus the snark).
I was making 30k a year doing that.
@sullen sequoia as long as you're not overheating you shouldn't worry too much about reducing longevity of your parts
I've got good fans and I did not disable my thermal controls. I think I'm okay.
you should monitor your temps
My GPU barely seems to be using any power at all.
atleast give them a glance every now and again
I can't while I'm sleeping. <grin>
I will warn you, it seems some EVGA GFX cards have weak/not properly cooled VRM's
Radeon XFX Vega 56
after folding (or mining) for an extended period they like to blow up
What would you say is the best monitor to use
as long as temps are below 85C id say you're good
I've got AIDA64, but I don't think it does GPU well.
If you have MSI Afterburner use that
Pretty sure I have that.
if not alot of ppl in this discord really like HWiNFO64
and I like HWMonitor
HWiNFO is a slightly more powerful a tool
I started folding today, but it is only using my CPU and not my GPU. My GPU is picked up by the program, but it doesnt get anything to do... Tips?
go into the advanced client and look at the log
if it looks like this then you're fine
the servers just dont have a job for you ATM
Ah. Radeon added a bunch of monitoring tools to the last Adrenaline update.
GPU Temp is 33c
33?
Yup.
so its idling ?
Looks like my CPU get stuff
At the moment, yes. Downloading next workload.
I'll check waht it runs up to when it catches one.
on filters check the Slot box and change the dropdown to 01
yep you are fine
yeah, no jobs for you, that's all
yeah ok thanks
my 1060 is sitting still too right now
CPU us running at 83% and seems okay on temp - well within my normal range for a Ryzen 3600.
but they have enough for CPUs and not GPUs?
Apparently.
It goes back and forth
Took me hours to get my first GPU job last night.
GPU's and CPU's do different jobs
aaaaaaaaaaaah
the F@H community have done tons of folding on GPU's, now F@H needs CPU only tasks done
someone said in here what jobs specifically CPU's and GPU's do
but i cant remember off the top of my head
I think CPU's do drug interaction and GPU's fold the protein structure?
That would be my guess.
