Folding Forum

Just under 8 hours to go until contest starts. Lot's of last minute registrants. Keep 'em coming!

Ok I got the prize info from EVGA Jacob. TEN X20 Mice TEN Z20 Keyboards We have had a major influx of contestants this week, but we could still have leftover prizes, thus we have had to implement a slight rules change to make the contest even easier. We have lowered the requirement for the random pr...

Bump. 3 days to go. Get your machines ready. Don't forget you need to register at EHW. Mind the start time as it is UTC time zone.

Hope to see some of you there

Looks like some good prizes for the folders. I'm right on the cusp of 5 work units per day, so not sure if I will participate, but just food for thought on the issue. I understand that folders with higher end gear will generate more points for your team, so no grudge there. Throw more machines at i...

Hello Fellow Folders, If anyone would like to come fold with us for four days, we have some sponsored prizes to give away from Corsair, Cooler Master, and be quiet. I think as it stands right now we have more prizes than people registered so far, so very likely you can win something just for partici...

lol right I made that test bench out of aluminum angle from the hardware store

It looks like the graphics side of the APU consumes about 50W or so while running at 2400MHz. The massively overclocked Quadro M2000 also folding in this system is consuming about 75W but gets about twice as much PPD. I've yet to tune up the CPU-side of the APU to see if the CPU cores will be worthw...

Yeah it's pretty good. Pulling over 100K ppd.

The description, yes that's what I'm talking about. It needs to be differentiated from the other Vega-based iGPUs.

Device ID from GPU-Z: Windows 10 Pro 1002 1638 - 1002 1636 I know this won't complete too many work units per day, but the competition between my buddies has a handicap and is more weighted on overclocking. This particular iGPU is folds pretty slow at stock settings, but the Cezanne architecture has...

No rush. It's already folding, and folding quite well once I overclocked the system memory a bit. It just identifies as "Radeon TM Graphics" in the client. I know it's getting this identification from AMD's drivers, but when it's ID'd like this I can't use it for competition since like 30 ...

Update: Through some BIOS/driver/Afterburner trickery, I have overclocked the card from 680MHz to 1360MHz. It's folding away and punching way above its weight.

It worked once I put the card in a different machine. There was some sort of conflict between the W2100 and the Vega 56. As long as the Vega was active, the W2100 refused to use OpenCL. I confirmed this when looking at the GPU-Z checkboxes when I would enable/disable the Vega card. Some weird driver...

It's on Windows 10 Pro. Perhaps I need a different driver. It's not showing the Open CL box checked in GPU-Z despite being a Open CL 1.2 capable GPU. I'm going to try some older drivers and I will report back my findings.

This was just donated to my classroom. Says disabled so I imagine it is not on the whitelist. We did have a regular radeon with the same "Oland" core config that was folding before but it bit the dust. How do we go about getting this one enabled? Explain this to me like I am a kindergartne...

Update:

We found a GTX 750 for pretty cheap. The best part is the low power requirement despite being a faster card than the GTX 465.
