Folding Forum

Greetings ...

I have an heritage machine running Manjaro and F@H version 7.6.21.

Recently built a new machine to fold and wanted to try v8.3.18. Since this version is not yet available in the AUR I installed Mint strictly for ease of installation, using the .deb package listed through the Folding welcome page.

Both machines are folding well with RTX 4070 Super and 4070 ti. However, just going by my "sniff test" seat of the pants feeling, the PPD output of the Mint machine is not matching that of the 7.6.21 Manjaro.

Asking in case anyone has done an in-depth comparison of Linux boxen to come to a solid conclusion whether one version produces better than another.

(Saving myself the time and labor of switching cards between machines for broad spectrum of work units, and documenting the points. )

Thanks in advance,

On Fedora 40, 4070 Super does 13-14M PPD most days, rare days of 15-16M. And 4070 Ti does 14-15M PPD most days, 13M or 16M rarely. Using recent kernels from Fedora repo and latest NVIDIA drivers from rpmfusion repo.

Thanks, Bikeaddict! Which F@H version is running?

Mine currently:
Manjaro -- RTX 4070 Su -- F@H 7.6.21 -- Project 18221 -- 14,912,000
Mint -- RTX 4070 Ti -- F@H 8..3.18 -- Project 18228 -- 8,819,000

Client 7.6.21. The client version shouldn't matter since the downloaded core binaries are what process the work units.

I did not know that.

Today, Arch version 8-4.3 update was released. WOW
