damric

maybe you get upgraded to lifetime DIAMOND

yeah unfortunately EK couldn't make it in time, but we might have that prize available for something at a later date.

I just watched the discord live feed of doing the prize draw. When the video finishes processing, it will be posted here. For those winners of CORSAIR and be quiet! prizes, please contact @Avacado and send him your shipping address, email, and phone number (sometimes required for delivery). For the winners of EXTREMEHW desk pads or tshirts, please send @damric your shipping address, email, and phone number (sometimes required for delivery). For the winners of the EXTREMEHW Premium Bronze Account, I will personally send @ENTERPRISE the list of names. For the winner of the Tofu Jr Keyboard, send @firedfly your shipping address and he will get that to @keeph8n.

I looked up your account. Were you using the pass key that had a lot of failed units? https://apps.foldingathome.org/bonus

miker07 chose the Dark Rock Pro 5 keeph8n gets the Dark Rock Elite elblat gets one of the A115 Random draw will be done as soon as we finish processing the spreadsheet, but it will be very soon so hold onto your hats.

Nice work EVERYONE 1st Place @miker07 2nd @keeph8n 3rd @elblat Those 3 need to get with us quickly and make your picks so we can move on to the fun random draw. @neurotix yeah some sort of post bit for this will be coming, but I don't know about the one for last month since that wasn't our comp.

lmao you're eligible now.

Alright Team, we got about 2 hours to go. Make sure you click "FINISH" and complete your last WUs before logging out. We had over 40 people folding, and we have over 30 prizes to give away, plus some special forum signatures for everyone. Remember 1st place gets 1st prize pick, 2nd to 2nd, and 3rd to 3rd. The rest of the prizes will be random draw by @Avacado once I send him the final list of eligible people. Great effort everyone. I hope that you all join our smaller 48-hour monthly foldathons.

ok so I had this problem myself as an overclocker new to folding. You need to have 80% completion rate and at leat 10 WU completed to get the quick return bonus. Unfortunately you failed a lot of work units already, but in the grand scope of things 17 is nothing. When you get about 100 complete you should be good to go as long as you don't fail anymore. I'm guessing that would take you until the end of this week at your current progress. The only other thing you could do is use another email address to request a new key. But yeah when I was new to folding I had similar failures when I tried bashing down the door with huge overclocks that I thought were stable, but apparently not folding stable.

lol mine isn't either. I think it's the folding@home server's fault. But what is awesome is that it looks like you got your problems corrected and are now churning out the work units. Are you using a key to get a bonus? Folding@home Bonus Status APPS.FOLDINGATHOME.ORG You can check that link to verify your user/key combination is getting the quick return bonus, which is very substantial.

You check the LOG TAB and check the box for Warnings and Errors and maybe see what's up. Vega can fold pretty well, but don't OC the HBM

For the guys that normally don't fold often or are new to folding. Dial back those overclocks, espeically on the memory. F@H is more brutal than those synthetic stress tests and has like zero tolerance for errors, meaning the work units will fail if you are even slightly unstable. If anything, tune for efficiency as this is a marathon, not a sprint. Already had some people messaging me with problems on systems that they thought were 100% stable.

It wouldn't ruin it at all. It would enhance it because I know that certain folks here ARE sandbagging. If you made a run for the top it would push those guys harder.

Actually Mark, I'm pretty sure our in-house stats update much more frequently than eoc. EhwFoldingStats EHWFOLDINGSTATS.LAZYPENGUIN.COM If you are just running the one RTX 4070, then that seems actually very good. Are you going to bring out your good toys soon?

@The Pook and @iamjanco are you sure you guys still want opted out of prizes? I saw you guys posted that back in December, but you both deserve to be in the draw

There's always that guy Usually it's @Fluxmaven

Welcome aboard all you last minute and late-comers. I just got confirmation of two nice coolers from be quiet! so I put links and images in the original post. Those two coolers are USA/Canada only per, be quiet! I forgot to add that in, but it will have to wait until tomorrow as I'm off to bed. Good luck everyone!

oh they are dry-fit? That will actually be perfect for me living in the sweaty south

ahh not even for 4 days?

like representing the whole forum? It's cool. We got guys from various forums

Nothing wrong with that. That explains how they can put up some massive points! We eagerly await seeing the crunching power that your equipment can output.

Welcome aboard. Glad to have you! @ENTERPRISE he's having trouble with the rig builder, but man I'm just in awe. Mark, that's some awesome equipment!

CORSAIR Sponsored prizes added to original post. 8 nice ones

Some in-house prizes added to the original post. Hopefully I edited them correctly
