Bezos is stealing our WU!

Try xubuntu and then
sudo apt-get install python 2.7

1060s are great value for that purpose. You can get them for slightly more than 50$.

I did and now I am stuck at 4/4 stuck slots
Waiting for divine intervention on Stanford side.

155.247.166.220, two out of four slots stuck ATM.

Is it to be expected that Core22 will require more PCI bandwidth? My 1060 that is on a 1x riser sees a drop in PPD with p11737 and it looks like the PCI bus is saturated (Nvidia control panel showing 80+% utilization). A 2060 and 1660 Ti in 8x slots on the same machine see a significant increase in...

VNC is not encrypted so do not use it outside local network.

Running four 1060s on AthlonII X4 downclocked to 1.8GHz on Linux with no PPD loss.

Linux tutorial on official page is a disgrace for F@H project.
It recommends outdated client (v7.4.4), outdated Python fix and makes no mention of need to download opencl when using Nvidia drivers.

Thanks for explanation, I thought that all the power delivery is handled via X1 segment of PCIE slot.

How come those teeny tiny wires used for ribbon risers do not melt/catch fire when subjected to 75W of power draw?
As opposed to big fat cables found on Sata power connectors that are somehow not recommended due to being prone to melting/catching fire?

Using ribbon riser without power connector=playing with fire.

Undervolted and underclocked with no loss in PPD.
How can it be less than optimal?
The point is undervloting AND underclocking.
Also worth noting, the machine is dedicated folder.
When running remote desktop I see lower GPU usage, so this scenario is obviously not recommended for desktop use.

I lack wattmeter, but one can assume the answer is yes.

I have dual core Athlon (the one from 2008) undervolted (to lowest value allowed by BIOS) and downclocked to 1.8Ghz, feeding two 1060s without drop in PPD.
So, go ahead!
