  1. A little late to the show here, and I can't tell if all of your adapters are powered or passive. I would be careful running more than 2 (maybe 3 GPUs) with passive cables/adapters. I toasted a 2P Xeon board that didn't have supplementary PCIe power, running 4 GPUs at max OC 24/7. Took out the 24-pin header, and fried some of the 12v traces on the board. Other than that, awesome job on the bench and it's great to @Spotswood gear in action
  2. It's the ATX board, so 4 x16 PCIe slots (2 @ x16 electrical; 2 @ x8 electrical) and three M.2 slots (2 from the CPU and one from the chipset).
  3. Thanks for the update @axipher That sucks on the x399 boards. I still have an x399 Taichi if you get in a pinch and need a board.
  4. Just saw this post. Thanks to @ENTERPRISE @BWG @zodac @axipher and anyone else who helped to put this together.
  5. One of these might work, depending on the size of your board. https://kprepublic.com/products/mstone-clear-forested-dust-cover-anti-dust-guard-cap-mechanical-keyboard-40-60-65-80-poker-gh60-bm60-xd64-xd68-bm65-87?_pos=1&_sid=600de15f1&_ss=r&variant=36372404175011
  6. Is the handicapping system still up for tweaks? I have been testing some misc. hardware, and it seems like the all OS numbers, rather than the Windows/Linux numbers, are a little closer to reality on both platforms, especially on older less powerful gear.
  7. Fresh off the boat (actually an airplane) from Germany :) New pair of Watercool Heatkiller 360-L rads for my home server.
  8. This worked for the images in my T-ripper server build log. Only about half the links were broken, but the edit->save->edit->re-insert fixed all the images, without having to re-upload anything.
  9. Actually, nothing at the moment. I didn't realize that the TC is going to kick back off August 1st, so for now we are all good.
  10. I don't remeber the last time I logged in to Discord, so thanks for the heads up. The Foldaholics will be all sorted out to start our reign of destruction on August 1st.
  11. 10-4. Hit me up if you're interested in some no name 16GB 3200 ecc udimms. @firedfly are you still interested in temping with your Quadro or any other GPU?
  12. @axipher @Avacado Now that the forum is revived, I just wanted to see where we were at. I have a 980 that I can slot into Wildcard if the 5700 is still going to be up and folding. Let me know what's up and then I'll let @BWG know what we are all folding on.
  13. My points are going to go to zero for the next week. I'm moving the Radeon VII off F@H and testing a few different GPUs. I don't want my points to be all over the place, so that passkey will just be offline for a bit.
  14. Unlike mining, there is quite a bit of communication between the CPU/Memory and the GPU while running a WU. It is not an extremely bandwidth intensive GPU compute app, but once you go below PCIe 3.0 x8, with faster GPUs, the performance will drop.
  15. I don't have an x570|Ryzen 5000 setup, but first thing I would try is swapping your NVMe drive into one of the chipset slots. If that doesn't work, then I would look at running a SATA SSD, which will be more than adequate for a folding machine. I went round and round getting 3 GPUs running on my x370|1700 machine. I was able to get it working, but that was on three 7970s that were not running anything that was constrained by the PCIe bandwidth.
  16. I have a few things that could slow that down.
  17. This made me look at my EHW stats. Looks like I just passed 500M for the team. I also saw that @BWG and @firedfly were threats. In about 11 months. ?
  18. @Avacado No worries if you need to take a break. Do you think you'll be back for the "official" start in July or is there no ETA on getting your rig back up and running? @firedfly Are you still planning on dedicating the 3070 to 24/7 folding? If Avacado is going to be on the bench for a bit, then we'd be happy to have you on the team with whatever GPU you want to fold on.
