Re: p18245, slow?
Click on the question mark on that GPU Z window to load the GPU and then see what pcie speed is running. If the screenshot was taken when GPU is already loaded with folding, then you have an issue without pcie mode. It shows X1, and that is too slow even with pcie5 gen Yes you're absolutely right, ...

Re: p18245, slow?
I would look at clocks, and people are bumping them fairly substantially in many cases. I have a 2400G, 16G memory, and a 5060ti on Win10. Same PCIE 3.0 x 8. Though the bus interface load will show near or at 100% average when overclocked, it will leave a few percent at stock clocks. This is with ha...

Re: p18245, slow?
Apologies for hijacking, but this is interesting to me. I just installed an RTX 5060 yesterday evening. I've seen people say the average PPD is 6mil, but so far i've only been folding p18245, and my PPD has stayed around 4mil, TPF around 1min 50. The clock speed is fine, runs VRel as well, but watt...

Re: Fairly frequent timeouts downloading workunits
I've noticed the warnings when it was struggling to pick up work with repeated retries. Other than the warning that shows up, it keeps cycling with no ill impact that I could find, so I just ignore the warning.... beyond it making me notice that it's having issues.

Re: Repeated Memory Access Errors
Windows memory tester isn't very reliable. Run memtest86 from a boot drive. Go from there.

Re: The F&H 8.5.6 client did not give any points after folding that ran without errors.
The missing points arrived today at 10:17 and 10:18, thank you. SOLVED!!!!! Just for future reference.... Every now and then a new issue will pop up and this type of thing takes place. But in years of folding around the clock I don't think I have ever been denied a credit for work that I did on my ...

Good thing you posted that. I was thinking about 18261 since I get lots of them, and not the 18281 the OP asked about.toTOW wrote: ↑Mon Mar 30, 2026 10:42 pm See comments in the beta thread about p18281 : viewtopic.php?t=43321

Re: Project 18281
I haven't had any failures on that project myself. Whenever you get a failed work unit it's best to try and see if it failed for the next user as well. Just use the below link. https://apps.foldingathome.org/wu If it fails for the next user it is probably a bad work unit. You could post on the forum...

Re: What is best practice for overclocking / undervolting a 50xx in Linux?
You can also increase the memory clock, which is useful for very large WUs (many atoms) and most GPUs handle it far better. The actual values for both shader and memory clock offsets varies not just for individual models, but for actual individual cards themselves. That is why the current values ar...

Re: Plan my folding sessions and work
I just fold 23/7 and have downtime when needed to blow out the system. With a stable system there is no need to quit folding for video calls, watching video, even light gaming, along with other tasks. So I don't need to "keep up" with any scheduling, the system just keeps running. LAR syst...

Re: gpu disabled 5080
Just to add to the thread: I had a similar issue yesterday when I installed a new GPU on 7.6.21 and it detected but showed as disabled. Tried slot options, a full uninstall and reinstall of 7.6.21 and several reboots, the new driver confirmations, etc. Nothing was making it work. Installed the 8.5.6...

Re: Setting affinity to maximize efficiency on an AMD cpu with Linux: a "case of study"
Lem, As stated above by ToTow, frame time and/or PPD values are the only real way to measure improvements on F@H. Though it can take more time to test, I'd suggest you do so, testing with multiple methods (CPU and GPU, CPU only, GPU only, Boinc included wherever you do it, etc) and find hard results...

Re: Why can't I do more than 1 WU at a time?
Which work unit IS running? I suspect that your CPU is folding, and the issue lies with detection of the GPU and/or iGPU.

Other than the error showing up, it worked fine for me on V7. I just haven't had any of them since November.
