Hi,
I have just started folding. Using linux and folding for the first time. Tried folding on a CPU first but using GPU since core17 went advanced.

I am building a new rig for folding and will ask advice as the build progresses.

Welcome To The F@h Forum, halucigenia. You probably already knew this, but I just wanted to remind you that AMD GPU folding isn't supported in Linux (yet). So you'll want NVidia GPU for the new rig.

Napoleon, thanks. I did know that and am planning accordingly. I am already testing out some Nvidia cards on my current machines for compatibility.

On the subject of testing I know that there is FAHbench for Windows, but what's the best testing tool in linux? is there a good test for GPUs in Phoronix test suite for example?

There are some tests here.

Hi..

looking forward to seeing the specs for your new build.

Yes core 17s a bit hard to get at present, hang in there more should be along soon.

Hi, kiore, just be patient, I'm still building up the courage to post some of my crazy ideas here.

Hey, kiore, do you like my new sig (I wonder where I got the idea from?)
