Folding Forum

Yes, relating to CPU features, FahCore xa7 can be more challenging than xa4, AVX vs SSE2.

Is there any way to force 0xa4 WUs only ?

A few questions: I’ve tried a -100 and -200 downclock but the EVGA still cranks out above 70C which I’m not keen on. Any pointers to get the temperature and decibels lower? Undervolting. A kind of. Pascal GPUs don´t run with lower voltage, but you can raise the clock at same voltage. You may call t...

Short feedback from a mixed running of a new 1070, FAH Client 7.4.4. and BOINC, Win8.1, Eco mode by Gigabyte ´Etreme Gaming´ tool. [No overclocking, no default setting, only eco clock so far.] Recognition was done fast, folding started at once, finished some x18/x21 workunits, everything fine. :mrgr...

Plugged in 24x7, a smart phone or tablet might produce a percent or two as much work as the simplest of computer CPUs. There may be a lot of android/iOS devices available for folding but even if they were all harnessed for FAH, it's a lot less science than is currently being processed with home com...

Turbo is active ? For testing fix maximum clock.
Did you try reduce core usage to 10 or 11 ?

I've been getting Core 17 units randomly... Seems to be every 3rd WU or so. I just got one a little bit ago, but for the last two days my GPU had been working through a Core 15 unit. See #2 from 7im in this thread: And not getting core 17 does not indicate a lack of those WUs. It indicates core 15 ...

What should a 4770k and 2xHD6970s be worth PPD wise? Would anyone be able to help me out on this, it has me baffled Stuff/Info - CPU is set to use 6 threads, leaving 1 for each GPU (is it possuble to set a CPU affinity for the GPUs. I vaguely remember being able to do something like that in the old...

Had some problems with GTX650TI, see Advice for choosing the GTX 650 [Add: GTX 650 Ti OC] , but power usage and temperatures were fine. Regarding the folding future with GPU focus on Core17 I would look for a small AMD GPU with reasonable OpenCL performance, see FAHBench (OpenMM 5.1) , for example H...

New day, new luck. True patience is waiting without worrying. Got a p8900 again.

CPU frequencies @stock 3.5 Ghz gave no solutions, new BIOS, resetted and RAM @stock, back to JEDEC voltage, Command Rate 2, different drivers from 2013, de- and installing CCC, finally 13.12 version, deleted and edited new FAHControl GPU slot, rebooting and so on - each configuration crashed p11293....

Thanks for the hint ! Memory is running with XMP settings, it´s a single pair of Kingston Low Voltage RAM, 1600@1.35V. But the CPU is oced, multiplicator 35 >40, maybe this generates the problem in the case of Core16. All Core17 workunits finished without error. Made a mainboard BIOS update few week...

No more p8900 ? In the morning crashes with 11923 again. Will try it tomorrow again. *********************** Log Started 2014-01-07T06:21:30Z *********************** 06:21:53:FS00:Unpaused 06:21:54:WU00:FS00:Connecting to assign-GPU.stanford.edu:80 06:21:54:WU00:FS00:News: Welcome to Folding@Home 06...

I have only ever been running Project 8900 on my AMD 270x card until the other day when I thought to set my client type to advanced, I was still getting only Project 8900 until this morning for the first time I received Project 11923. Same to me, FAHClient 7.3.6, Win7/64, Catalyst 13.9, HD7950, alw...
