All these branded with EHW: +1 to EHW Ducky, or at least a EHW themed double-shot keycap set for Ducky's full keyboards (including the odd keys required for varying models) Raised Gel Case Badges Laptop webcam sliding covers Draw-string bags for various items (microfibre or some other soft material) - Small: mice, phones, portable consoles - Medium: cables, chargers, snacks - Large: gym/indoor shoes for going to LAN parties with - Long: full size keyboards

I should probably order a case now so I can build a new home for that little guy. Also I'll need to learn to overclock Nvidia again and figure out best OS and tools to install, any tips?

Welcome to the ExtremeHW Folding Competition, Thursday September 23rd - 25th, 1 AM UTC (Wednesday September 22nd - 24th, 9 PM EDT) Countdown to Event Start Countdown to Event End ATTENTION Extreme Team Folding Participants: Please make sure you do not fold anything under your ETF GPU Passkey except for the GPU you are participating in the event with. You need to use a 2nd passkey to fold anything else in this event. In the spirit of folding for the cause and good old friendly competition between members, we are hosting another folding competition. For more details please see below. How to participate: During the competition you must be folding for Team 239902 You must post in this thread with "IN" followed by your folding username. Prizes: TBD Folding Time Prizes: TBD Excluded from Prizes: axipher All "Folding Time" prizes will require your username/passkey to be given to the donator, this will not give them any of your personal information, it just let's them be able to contribute full points to your username. Passkeys need at least 10 full Work Units to start getting the full Quick Return Bonus. Alternatively, you could setup another passkey for your Folding@Home username with a different email address and fold your first 10 units on that. This would still put the points towards your username, but they would also be tracked by a different passkey. Please note all winners must claim within 30 days from announcement of the winners.

The first update at 1:25 AM UTC will set the "zero" for your points based on all the WU's submitted up to 1 AM UTC. Good luck to all!

There was Unigine Valley as well.

Maybe I can finally be useful to my team lol.

I definitely have the space, I get the keys to my new house October 1st and will have lots of room finally for tech again includling a new 42U rack. I could definitely give it a home for the ETF or similar. Running the 750 Ti would definitely work, but at that point, I would be a little worried about the age of the system itself as it's an old Optiplex tower that uses some weird power supply and motherboard connectors. I would like instead just buy another cheap Rosewill case and rackmount a future dedicated folding rig.

That idea does appeal to me, but I would likely need to buy and setup a new computer to run another card, I don't want to mess with Windows AMD + Nvidia drivers again, that was a nightmare last time I tried making it work correctly. Right now I have: - X470 as the wife's gaming rig with the 5700 - X570 as my gaming rig with a 6700 XT - X570 as my UnRaid box - Q6600 with HD 3450 as spare rig and some old emulators

If I had more than my 5700 to fold on, I'd be up for some tricks, but my old little HD 3450 won't even run Folding@Home. So for now, I will just try to remain a nice steady baseline of points in the AMD category until I move and can look at potential hardware upgrades (well I guess for ETF, I would be looking for downgrades that I can overclock the snot out of).

It's not a reference card so it's already not stock... So I've changed my card's already non-stock settings to further non-stock settings...

No, I did not touch the clocks at all, left those all on auto, just the power limit on that card has reduced crashing for me in the past when I was having plentiful crashes while playing DX 12 titles so hoping that solves the couple crashes on units I've had in the past few months.

Guess my ETF rig had a failed unit at some point in the last 24 hours which just locked up FAH Client and had to manually pause/fold to get it going again. It was likely from the massive thunderstorm we were having that led to a number of light flickers that the cheap APC UPS might not have filtered out fully. Figured it was a good time to go in and increase fan speeds and enable +20% power limit on the RX 5700 as well to see how well that will increase PPD numbers.

And now for the last prize, much to my attempts to top my category with stock clocks and gaming on the card while it was folding, I did not top the AMD category. So the Spotswood ATX Open-frame Tech Tray or EATX Open-frame Tray comes down to a draw between @damric, @Avacado and @BWG. And with absolutely no endorsement from Canada, it seems @BWG has won the bench somehow... I should check my computer for viruses to see if he tampered with it somehow...

Embeds at their finest...

That's stock clocks on Windows 10, no power limit increase, just fans set to 80% across the temperature range.

It's a Sapphire Pulse 5700, so not the OEM or Reference design, I'm don't average over 1 mil PPD average so I don't think I'm in the OEM category, but can hit that on the odd day:

That's a fair point, just running a 5700, but it looks like the 5600 and 5700 along with their XT variants are all grouped together on LARS which is a little annoying, but there are two variants so not sure which one is being applied to mine @BWG Also not sure why Damric is listed as using an Nvidia card with 0 points for the AMD category...

Thanks for the carry boys, don't hurt your backs too much:

Just "do something about it", so get my FOB's reprogrammed then never use them so that their codes can't be extracted...

I'm sad I got rid of my Accord for a CR-V and don't think the CR-V justifies being in this thread, but here's my daily commuter: 2019 CRF 250 Rally

Big change from my Team 13 days without a win ever

Great job @tictoc and @Avacado, I had a couple days of downtime before I realized my GPU had crashed in folding while the wife was playing some FF XIV and it crashed, so you two really pulled some weight there. If we are doing the planned downtime at the beginning of the month, I might look at upping the Power Limit of my Sapphire Pulse 5700 to 120% to let it stretch a little but more. Does anyone have any sort of alerting system in place for when there GPU crashes? I was thinking of setting up some sort of HFM web-scrapper that can send my stats to InfluxDB/Grafana to create a dashboard with Discord alerts when it detects too low of a PPD.

New HFM version is out. It fixes the Unhandled Exception that some people may have been getting on start-up and some migration work for potential .NET 5.0 and better website generation Link: HFM.NET v9.25.1650 Release Date: August 17, 2021 Release Notes: Enhancement: .NET 5.0 support. A zip release is now provided and tagged as net5.0-windows. Please give this build a try. The goal with this release is to identify any issues with the migration to modern .NET before moving all releases to this runtime. If you do not have the .NET runtime installed then you should be prompted to install the runtime when running HFM.exe. It will be clear that you're running the .NET 5.0 build when you see "(dotnet)" in the application title bar. You can also see the version of the runtime being used by opening the Help > About dialog. Enhancement: Add processor information to the slot summary web generation output (xml and html) #350 (firedfly) Enhancement: Move processor information from the queue viewer to the main grid to match web generation output. Enhancement: Limit the number of log lines included in the web generation files. #351 (firedfly) Enhancement: Rework web generation HTML to modern standards and leverage bootstrap for a responsive layout. There are no breaking changes to the generated xml data. Enhancement: Update web generation visual styles (colors). Also added a None style if you prefer no color. Change: .NET Framework distribution now requires .NET v4.7.2. Change: Format queue combo box as "WU00:FS00:" to better match client logs. Change: Remove any remnants of Mono runtime support. Change: Update all supporting libraries to versions compatible with .NET 5.0.

I have actually tested lots of my scripts to run in Linux so far, the only ones that don't run are the ones that are reliant on modules written by other software companies to interface with their API's or that use Powershell V1 era public modules. I've mostly been trying to convert my scripts to Python3 where possible to allow for better portability, but Powershell does a lot of things really well.

I have a Windows 10 VM that just runs Powershell scripts for my network so I have HFM on that machine.

Hey @tictoc and @Avacado, watch your behinds, I'm slowly coming for you with my single 5700...
