CUDA Update to FAHCore_22
What a difference! Have been running for over 5 months with a RTX2060 and regularly get 1.1-1.4M PPD - although I tend to pause during working day for heat/noise. Cuda update landed and just seen first few WUs use Core22 Version 0.0.13 and it's up to 1.8M PPD. That's a healthy 25-28% increase. :shoc...

Re: P106-90 on old FM1 socket mobo
No problem and happy to help.
I forgot to mention - if using Linux don't be tempted to reduce the watts given to the P106 via "nvidia-smi". The reduction in temps and power are negligible but the drop in PPD huge. Leave it to take whatever power it needs.

Re: P106-90 on old FM1 socket mobo
If I had those parts lying around and all I needed was a GPU to complete it then the P106-90 is a very cheap way to do it. Low wattage, runs cool and relatively quiet all for around $55. As a low cost intro to a dedicated folding PC you can't really go wrong. I'm running a P106-90 along with a RTX20...

Re: About 2 x GPUs and heat problems
"free" electricity?! The 120mm CPU radiator is on the roof and is an exhaust. The two fans at the front are intake. Rear is exhaust and, hidden from view, there is another 120mm fan on the roof as an exhaust. The case really struggles to pull air and filters are removed from the front and ...

Re: About 2 x GPUs and heat problems
Have you looked at the NZXT G12 and an AIO for your 2060? I do that for one of my 1070s and it's the coolest card I have! even over my full-cover blocked cards I have although I saw some mixed reviews that put me off at the time although I can't actually recall the issues! What size radiator are yo...

Re: About 2 x GPUs and heat problems
it is strange to me seeing all these posts about being power efficient :) I spend a lot of time and money maximising ppd output and prefer to not look at my power bill A fair point! I've bought GPUs solely for folding so would be ironic to then be concerned about power costs. I reduce wattage becau...

Re: About 2 x GPUs and heat problems
I think you misread my post or my post was unintentially confusing. I don't run the P106-90 mining GPU at 125W. It can't run at that wattage. Max it can run at is 75W and minimum 60W. Dropping to 60W makes little or no difference in the GPU temp but causes huge drops in PPD. Max power it'll do 250K ...

Re: About 2 x GPUs and heat problems
I don't have 2 x RTX 2060 but am running 1 x RTX2060 and 1 x P106. Temps are high but "fine" and in a case that isn't exactly great with airflow - Corsair Carbide 275R. It is pretty quiet though as replaced all fans with Noctua and placed CPU radiator at top of case to allow maxmium, unres...

Re: HOWTO: Dashboard to monitor GPU and CPU temps
Ok.... seems like Mint 18/Ubuntu 16.04 has A LOT of repo issues so if you want to install this on those older versions follow the below instead of previous step 3. If running on Mint 18 do not follow STEP 3 to install Grafana. Instead follow method below. https://grafana.com/grafana/download sudo ap...

STEP 2 Install and configure Telegraf Agent Telegraf is the metrics collector. It takes feeds from vmstat and nvidia-smi, amongst others, and feeds them to our InfluxDB instance. Repo for Telegraf is same as InfluxDB as supplied by same company so can just install. sudo apt install telegraf -y New ...

Re: FaH Newbee Q: More slots/CPU's (or not)
I thought 1650 did about 500K PPD and 1060 about 450K PPD? Yes agree a Super more but dearer and not same price as 1060. Just didn't initially understand the rationale for an old 1060 over new 1650 but I get the point about compatibility.
Thanks
