Re: Try to enable NVidia GPUs on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS for Folding

I do not disagree, but they were $80 for the pair, available and that fits my budget. House is on solar so no to hard on the energy bill. But I will keep my eyes open for something better to replace them eventually.

Re: Try to enable NVidia GPUs on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS for Folding

Update:
Thank you all for your input and help. I pulled out the two Quadro 4000 and the Quadro FX 580 cards and replaced with two Quadro K5200 cards I picked up the pair for under $80 and it just works. Took a month of banging my head to get here but we got here, Happy Folding All!

Nicolas,

Thank you for the help looking at the other thread I may just be out of luck on this one. Was a fun problem just kept hitting walls, I have a couple of GTX 560 TI cards will give those a try next.

Cheers
