Folding Forum

Some information to maybe help someone else in future. I recently built two machines which were as near as possible identical. Each were 2p Opteron 16 core processors using Supermicro H8DGI-F motherboards. I built the first one and, following suggestion on these boards, installed the Beta version of...

If I re-install the client won't I lose any part-finished WU's though?. I thought that was a big no-no as the WU's then go into limbo until they hit their end-date

Output from FAHClient --lspci | grep NVIDIA: 0x10de:0x1c02:NVIDIA Corporation: 0x10de:0x10f1:NVIDIA Corporation: 0x10de:0x1b81:NVIDIA Corporation: 0x10de:0x10f0:NVIDIA Corporation:NV3 [PCI] The GPU I've got on this system is an AMD FX-8320E which I'm fairly sure doesn't come with an inbuilt GPU. The...

I added a GTX1070 as a second graphics card today, the first was a GTX1060. I seem to be folding OK but there are two possible issues that I've noticed. The first, as in the log below,seems to show 3 GPU's with the third as an unknown. When I added the GPU I simply went to configure -> slots and add...

Yes I agree. If I was simply looking to max out my PPD then I'd go for GPU upgrades/additions. It seems to me that the PPD values are aimed at the people donating computer power for folding as a 'reward' system, but it strikes me that from the project perspective it's really the WU's per day complet...

Thanks for the fast response, my estimates were based on extrapolating benchmark comparisons and it looks like I've got the factors a bit high. GPU upgrades is one of the other options I'm costing up. I've recently put a GTX1060 into one of my machines and I'm averaging somewhere in the region of 23...

I'm thinking about hardware upgrades for F@H and one of the options I'm considering is building around a pair of Xeon E5-2670 processors which are currently available for less than £100 each. I'm trying to work out what sort of PPD I'd get with this setup performing just CPU folding. The benchmarks ...

Hi, I only started folding about a couple of weeks ago and I have a question about upgrading to multiple GPU's on my machine. My current setup is: 03:24:38: Version: 7.4.4 03:24:38: Date: Mar 4 2014 03:24:38: Time: 12:02:38 03:24:38: SVN Rev: 4130 03:24:38: Branch: fah/trunk/client 03:24:38: Compile...
