Folding Forum

I talked with one of the developers on this topic already. Both the Windows and Linux client are configured to download the GPUs.txt file when the installer detects a GPU. And detection of the GPU depends on having installed a recent version of the driver from the OEM (AMD or NV). Open source drive...

As far as FAH is concerned, a K20C is a detuned gtx780. There are posted PPD estimates for the 780, just divide tpfs by ~0.65 (K20C runs at ~700 core clock, while the 780 will boost to 1000-1200) to get a good estimate for the tesla.

This is also what Napoleon is getting at with his exercise. :mrgreen: But just because there are some numbers attached, doesn't make this exercise any more informative than speculation. FAHBench provides relative performance of GPUs, and CPUs, on the simulation inside of FAHBench. The relative rank...

There's a miscommunication here. There is no support for Intel iGPUs at this point. All the discussion in this thread referencing Intel pertains to running FAHBench on the CPU.

If the cherry picking gets too bad, and older projects start to suffer, then core_17 could be stopped completely until the old projects finish. That seems a gut response, and really doesn't make sense. While core_17 does provide more points (for most cards), it's main advantage is it is much faster...

...i still feel like running a linux VM box would make this faster... Yes. Linux VM > Windows, native Linux > VM. Getting a linux VM to efficiently use a lot of cores is not trivial though. Unless you need bare metal access in windows, running native linux with a windows VM is a better option from ...

Not an explanation, but a solution in this thread:

Not a new bug.

There are currently not enough bigadv WUs to meet the demand of bigadv capable machines. I suspect this will be addressed at some point, but not all the possible fixes involve releasing more units, so careful what you wish for =).

I'm not sure if the cause-preference recently added actually does anything, but if it does, would you consider adding a preference for infectious disease? I was actually drawn to FAH by the influenza work (the 810x bigadv projects), but there are an increasing number of smp projects related to infec...

yep, it's in there, thanks.

mod edit: added resolved to title I accidentally folded as anonymous for a few months. Just realized it and re-input my user info. Previously I was getting bonus points (before I changed by accident to anonymous). Since re-inputting my user info I have not received any bonus. Do I have to redo the ...
