  1. I notice my GPU utilization in Windows is only 77% so maybe this new driver is just crap.
  2. 6900XT here. I normally fold at 100W but I just unleashed it to full power for this contest. The points could just be the work units.
  3. The site dev made an oppsie. He'll fix that ASAP. He did get me a better looking embedded score card though. I'm going to have both score cards for a few hours, then delete the old one if the new one seems to be working fine IGNORE THAT TIME BANNER FOR NOW On top of that my main machine restarted so I have to fix that too
  4. I'm looking into this now. That banner just appeared so I got to ask ENTERPRISE. The Start time is 00:00 UTC so ignore that banner. We have about 52 minutes to start time. Did that thing just pop up?
  5. Yeah I have to run a bit lower clocks when folding. If it does it again, then you might have a corrupted work unit, which means you might have to uninstall, delete the data folder, and re-install. That would suck because then you lose the credit for the work unit, and it's happened to me before while trying to figure our what clock speed was stable while folding. Also don't bother with VRAM OC. It doesn't help much with folding and can cause problems like the one I just stated. As long as you complete more than 80% of all work units you get the bonus points for quick return.
  6. Glad to have you representing Tom's Hardware! Just over 8 hours to go until challenge starts, so hopefully everyone is lighting off the crunch machines to work out any last minute kinks. I see that a new beta client for folding@home has been released. I'll test it out after the competition ends. V8 Client Guide – Folding@home FOLDINGATHOME.ORG
  7. We're a riff-raff haven here. Apparently some forums thought we were too greasy and dirty and deleted my invitation posts for the event. W1zzard at TPU was quite helpful though. That guy knows what's up. Shoutout to LTT, Guru3D, EVGA forum, f@h forum, HWBOT, and anyone else that didn't delete my spam!
  8. I set a 5950X to run 28 of 32 threads. I had to set LLC to high and disable PBO, otherwise it would keep crashing. Even ECO mode did not agree with f@h on my 5950X. Also running a 6900XT on that rig.
  9. I'll get this info into the original post, and we'll reiterate it again when winners announced.
  10. Original post updated with the relaxed Work Unit rules and EVGA prizes. Rules change: First round of random prize draw has been lowered to 10 Work Units. Should there be leftover prizes, we will hold a second round of random draws for those that completed 20 Work Units. I would say extremely good chance of winning one prize, and the possibility of a second prize as well thanks to our generous sponsors.
  11. Glad to have you all!!! Yes it's going to be VERY FUN I just got confirmation of the EVGA prizes. Ten Z20 Keyboards and Ten X20 Mice!!! I'm over the moon with their generosity! I'm working on getting those into the original post now but I wanted to share this immediately
  12. Michele bought it. 65" Samsung 4k 120Hz Free Synch Pro TV. Looks nice. I was just watching her play Hogwarts, which looks amazing with everything turned up. Her 5800X3D and 6900XT don't seem to be breaking a sweat. Actually her flying around on a broom looked so real it made me nauseous.
  13. Eternal Champion - The Armor Of Ire [2016] [Epic/Heavy Metal] [Full Album] - YouTube Music MUSIC.YOUTUBE.COM A new music service with official albums, singles, videos, remixes, live performances and more for Android, iOS and desktop. It's all here.
  14. Mobile. I got sunburned down at Dauphin Island this weekend. Lots of people swimming in the gulf since February which is kind of nuts but the the water never seemed to cool off over the winter. We rode the whole around the Island twice on our bicycles. Next weekend maybe kayaking.
  15. Ffs it's almost 90f here already for the last 2 weeks and humid asf over 95%
  16. Good news for the other teams. My ETF rig is down until I get a chance to re-route some coolant tubes. Apparently when a soft tube gets warm enough it is more likely to kink, and the kink got worse. I told Michele I had to order some anti-kink coil because I had some kinky hose and she about tore my head off
  17. Congrats dude. I'm glad you have a role in something you enjoy doing
  18. Glad to have you. What are you farming over at the Chateau de Cerebus Plantation?
