Folding Forum

I mentioned that in my first post, most calculations are single precision FP32 calculations with some double precision FP64 as needed. The actual calculations for folding are done in folding cores downloaded by the client and executing in their own processes. The client portion of the app installed...

I am not surprised that the FP64 performance is similar on the UHD Graphics 730 to an i5-11nnn series CPU. As listed it is a Gen 12 chip, FP64 is provided through the driver instead of hardware on the iGPU. I haven't seen exact details, but that may be through submitting double precision calculatio...

FP64 started to be required about 6-7 years ago as some calculations in the GPU processing started to be done in double precision to carry enough accuracy. Not all calculations are done in double precision, the researchers identified a subset where the extra precision was required. Most calculation...

hello, I just tried 2 laptops with these GPUs: Intel HD Graphics 620 and Intel UHD Graphics 730. FAH client 8.3 could recognize them but shows "support: false". And I cannot download any WUs to fold on GPU. Then I tried Nvidia T4 and Nvidia GTX4090, they worked just fine. I searched in the...
