Folding Forum

Well, I might be wrong as it's not really an area i'm that interested in - but I believe what your thinking of are part of a larger group known as digital currency. These have been around since the mid 90's in various forms. Specifically though, cryptocurrency is a newer form of digital currency, a...

Quick reply to Q4. F@H predates any crypto by 9 years. End of. ... Again a big overview answer for Question 4 is that Folding@Home predates Crypto currencies by a decade, so if it were all a 'Evil Plan" the evil plotters had a LONG term plan! .... Actually, no, there are/were several pre-y2k c...

ty joe I didnt know his first question its intresting that when you start a team it will still be given the points to the 0 team thought it did it directly to your team that you created good to know. The donor points are awarded to either the team you chose or the default team 0. The simple act of ...

I just looked at the fah stats and it says 106 PFlops (106215 TFlops) - So that makes fah about 500 times bigger

Not much of a ppd increase for a Q6600 on 0xa7, as it has no support for AVX. IIRC ppd for my q6600 was around 5k

I don't see any errors. You've successfully completed a number of cpu WU's and returned them, and the log shows a gpu WU running smoothly all the way to 53%.

Can you share log file showing your system details, config and also when the instability happen ? Did you overclocked your hardware ? Even if we now just fix the current WU the next one might behave the same way. Better getting down to a root cause and prevent reoccurrence. Yes. Unless you have set...

Anyways, since apparently older GPUs are not worth it ( even though power draw isn't a big concern and neither is heat ), I don't have $200 laying around for my main PC, so what about like a R7 260x or R9 270/x? Again. ~100w is minimal difference to me. An R9 270X produces about 80k-100k ppd A 960 ...

It's almost certainly the PSU. That PSU can't output 500w, that figure is just the theoretical max of all the outputs combined. The max combined 12v output from both rails is just over 400w. That assuming that the PSU can maintain 12v at higher load levels. If your running 6 HD's, that will be using...

It is in fact a Pitcairn GPU. The Tahiti XT was used in the 280X

Turns out it was a very helpful Windows update. So helpful, it broke some networking voodoo - and then tried to blame it on missing registry entries. After hours of fiddling, the cure was to reboot windows with the router turned off.

Ok, with both AV and firewall disabled, I still get the same error message.

"The connection has timed out
The server at 171.67.108.45 is taking too long to respond."

That's what I get when I try to open in a browser. I'll keep messing around until it works. I haven't changed any security settings - but that doesn't mean that they haven't changed

Yeah, f@h is allowed through. I did check again though, as since I've moved to Win10, firewall exceptions seem to change by themselves.
