The software that came with the card (an EVGA GTX 650Ti) seems to have some controls I don't know how to get at. They (power target and temp target) are greyed out. The only ones I seem to be able to do much with are GPU and MEM clock offsets, which don't seem to effect much. There's a voltage sett...

Thanks, all for the replies. Due to time and priority restraints, I'm not going to be able to do much with the case/fans, etc. or otherwise messing with hardware. I originally just put this old PC into service to try and contribute to Covid cure effort. I added the second GPU as a means of additiona...

You cant as such slow it down via fah as gpu scheduling in os doesnt work that way but you could either reduce the power setting to the gpu or underclock it - the first might be the easiest ... the issue is probably less about it overworking but more about lack of cooling/airflow in you case ... th...

I recently added a second GPU to my system and and am happy with the results. Question arises about my legacy GPU. It is currently running its little old heart out, but it is now reporting temp right around 100 deg C and fan at 100%. I'd like to allow the card to continue to run, taking the approach...

Thanks all for the responses! I'm all set. My question was just originally concerning what I saw as 100% CPU and only 23% GPU. Using CPU-Z, I see the 650 Ti is working it's little heart out. @MeeLee allayed my doubt that the added GPU (a refurbed CTX 1660) wouldn't be kept sufficiently busy. I'm not...

Hey! Im running an i5-4670 and a GTX 1660 Super. The CPU is manually set to just one core because I dont want to pause if the PC is needed. A while ago i temporary did add a second GPU (GTX 750) and I could not see any disadvantages. There seems to be some headroom. Your config should run very well...

Your current CPU will be fast enough to feed a newer GPU like a GTX 1660.

Thanks!

Hi. I've been folding a while and just discovered that by updating my F@H software, the PC I use for folding can now use the GPU in the video card. I'd like to process more WUs and plan on upgrading the video card. My current CPU is a reasonably robust i7-4770K, which, according to task manager, has...
