  1. Our Three-Peat was added to the OP, finally.

     

    $75 cash prizing split amongst the winning team begins in March. (you must start and end the month folding with the team for it to be paid to the participant) My personal recurring donation through December. Should pay some of the electric.

    Have a lot of points to make up since I was reluctant to switch teams. Had been holding that #3 spot on OCN for a while and was about to pass JPM.

     

    You could join foldaholics in etf if you want to fold something 24/7?

    soooo, I think I am going to have to put Linux on this ETF machine. It currently has windows 10 home and it is constantly rebooting for freaking auto-updates. It is driving me nuts. Sorry for the inconsistent points for the time being, but it always seems to think it is a great time to reboot while I am at work. There may be a day later this week where I am down for a few hours while I install Ubuntu or a similar distro. Would you like to coordinate a substitute for the down time, or do you guys think it will be fine? Let me know 🙂 

     

    I have Ubuntu 20.04 setup as a dual boot on everything, but you could always turn off the updates, or set everything to start folding on reboot.

    Sounds like a good unit!

    OMICRON CORONAVIRUS PROJECT

    Simulations of the omicron variant of Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 spike protein.

    Might want to select Covid as cause preference, maybe you'll get more of those 🙂

     

    Seems like a good idea since our folders & families are getting hit with it lately. My whole house was finally hit over this past weekend, except my 23 yr. old, but he stays in his bubble. We're too Boomer for him.

    Of course it is 🤦‍♂️

    Getting it back online right now.  Must've been because of update Tuesday or something stupid.  It'll be back up within the next 10-15 minutes.

     

    To make this better, you can auto-start fah, oc app, and auto-login.

    Quite the setup going on. I assume dual purpose mining/folding. Pretty awesome. I have been trying to pick up FE cards off the Best Buy drops but haven't been lucky as most happen while I am at work.

     

    Yep, quite a bit of planning was made around it folding as fast as it can though. No x1 slots utilized. 4x+ 4.0 only.

  7. Shouldn't he be able to at least slide the core clock up though, or is he going to need to edit the bios to? I can do the slider on my 960 on the newest driver. Weird that it's not saving for him.

     

    Maybe you can try Precision X1 to see if it will save as potentially an easy button @Cerberus

    Well dang. We're having a severe thunderstorm and power went out for half a second, enough to reset every computer in the house. All of my clients were able to save the work units except my etf rig, so probably lost a day's worth of work on this W4100. On the bright side I might have some better cards for the team soon.

     

    Maybe at some point, you can swing a decent battery backup to send those blips away and carry on!

    Thanks for having me. I am going to keep folding at stock for now (until I get a day off) and then I am going to crank up the OC and hopefully start putting some real points up. 

     

    I just noticed the profile pic is the RX7 instead of the RX8 😉 

     

    Can't be 'EXTREME' Stock 😉

    Aww, man! I just had a friend PSU show up like that when I was troubleshooting it. It was his shop PC too. I had a spare to put in it while I ordered one which arrived yesterday. 

     

    You were doing great this month too!

    So this is where everyone's been hanging out these days? Been away from the forums for a while. Nice to see so many of you guys crushing it.

     

    Pretty much. Enterprise owns this one, so it's back in the enthusiasts hands. We even had prizing 2x last year, and not small prizing by an means. The vets are trying to support him in his endeavor.  I mean, even I un-retired 🤣.

     

    Guys, some of us are going to help [H] in a week long event starting January 23rd, so you'll see a dip for a week. Why? Well, @firedflyhas been a wonderful help to us all here, and he's from [H], and although they were our former folding enemy, we really appreciate him. It's all for the same cause. Hopefully, next year we can convince them to make it a 3 way battle, and get back to some form of Chimp Challenge battles without all of the headache algorithms.

    Quite the setup you got going on now. Impressive PPD. It's been a while since we talked. I knew you were planning on upping your folding game. I have some big catching up to do for the "new" team.

     

    Join ETF! @tictoc needs a folder on Foldaholics. Same procedure as TC as far as isolating a passkey to a GPU. Wow, that picture is pretty old. Here's present state:

    I lost a bit of time with some failed WUs yesterday trying to see if the Fury X could magically run at higher clocks after sitting on the sidelines for about 4 years.  The answer to that question was a big NO!

     

    The only tuning left would be to bump the memory up a bit, but the ppd gain compared to the down time is probably not worth it.

     

    I think you were 1 lowercase o away from paying me $5 😉

    I will get that screenshot to you, but it may be another week or so. I'll just PM it to you.
