Welcome to the ExtremeHW Folding Competition, October 22 Countdown to Event Start Countdown to Event Stop 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: n/a 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. Current Event Stats: Note: Stats are updated every hour at XX:25 for previous hour of submitted Work Units. The first update at 00:25 AM UTC will set the "zero" for your points based on all the WU's submitted up to 12 AM UTC. Good luck to all!

Order to my rigs brings a little order to my life, now where's the pizza I ordered?

Extremehw has done very well so far in this comp. I don't have anything else I can bench for the comp, but I did start benching Michele's old reference 6900xt for general submissions. Not quite as fast as it was on her 5800x/x570, but still very good despite PCIE 3.0.

Try using full screen mode instead of windowed mode

She just sent me pics. They are ATI, so pretty old. That has me more intrigued. Waiting to see if she can send me a picture of the GPU die.

If Michele can remember, she found some ancient video cards at work yesterday. We're leaving out of town until next month but I have a couple hours tonight if she remembers.

Today we explore the cheap things you can find on ebay and try and put it together.

What I was thinking when I saw this... Avacado going to use these on DDR5 experiment with Pure Copper RAM Heatsink Radiator for Ram DDR3 Memory Cooler Cooling Heat SinkX6 WWW.EBAY.COM 1 Heatsink (Because each batch of pure copper material is different, the appearance of the product may have color difference). Colour: copper color. Material: pure copper.

I get random emails from these shops and this one caught my interest. I did not know they made these. Anyone ever tried one? 82w/mk Gpu Graphics Card Memory Cooling Gddr6x Vram Non 3d Graphite Thermal Pad For 3070 3080 3090 High Performance Thermal Pad - Pc Components Cooling & Tools - AliExpress WWW.ALIEXPRESS.COM Smarter Shopping, Better Living!

I swear I'm unlucky when it comes to Samsung B-die DDR4. These Vipers are rated 4400CL19, won't post at that speed/timing, but will post with * timings worse than my dirt cheap Micron sticks. I'll be putting the Ballistix back in tomorrow. The Vipers will at least do 3200CL14 on one of my folding rigs so that's where they will go.

One good side effect of all of this unstable overclocking while trying to benchmark is that I was able to find a really good stable clock for my 4x8GB Ballistix Micron E DDR4-3600CL16. For 24/7 it's running at 4300CL16 now. I've not had that much agility of RAM since DDR3-2400CL9.

Well you are stuck with the 12nm GF IO die on Vermeer, so you'll never get the 1:1 clocks like you see on my Cezannes. But don't fret, 1966 is very good , andI can't even run that fast on my 5800x. Just try tuning timings now. Try adding some base clock up to 104 or whatever the threshold is before PCI bus downgrades itself.

I gave us a new high score for AMD DDR4 with my Ryzen 5500. I think I can still do better. These are 4x8GB Micron E DDR4-3600 16-18-18 sticks that I'm pushing to 4266 or beyond. I have some other sticks to try as well including some Samsung B.

I think everyone who posted in this thread hit at least 10 WUs. Obviously some hit a hell of a lot more

Looks like quite a few people got over 10 WUs according to the score card.

In theory the results files can be reloaded and can give you the link

Keep at it and don't get discouraged by the ridiculously poor submission process.

@mx500torid don't feel bad. I have been fighting with that submission system for more than a decade. You just got to accept that the HWBOT site setup is pretty trash, and it seems like there's hardly anyone that actually works on it. When they changed the rules to full-screen and no cropped images I could never for the life of me figure out why my screenshots threw errors. Well go figure they are still in 1990 and expect a 648x480 image and definitely not my 4K PNG images. So what I do is Ctrl+PrtSc, paste into new bitmap image, then resize that * to 25% and save as a JPG. I keep all of my results images in folders organized by whatever the hell it is I'm benching. So let's say today I'm benching Vega 64, my folder is named Vega64. My screenshots in that folder are going to be named FS-1 (fire strike 1st attempt), or FSU-1 (Ultra settings), SD-1 (Sky Diver), or whatever to keep me from losing my mind. Ok here's a screwed up thing when running some of the 3DMarks. Sometimes when you view result online, it takes you to the result, but the link has a ? at the end of it. If you copy/paste that link with the question mark into HWBOT it's going to throw an error. You'll quit HWBOT for months or bang your head into the wall trying to figure out *. So what I do is after it redirects me to my result, I then click on My Results, and open the link to the result I just ran. This one won't have the question mark and won't throw an error. I don't think anyone at HWBOT tested or explained these kinds of hoops you need to jump through just to submit your damn score. @Avacadoyes that's a great idea to show some how-to screenshots. I'll probably still screw it up but now at least I'll be able to blame someone

Yes run it. They take the top 3 scores for the comp. I only did the DDR4 iGPU. 2500u will satisfy the DDR3 iGPU category. FM2+ Kaveri would lock that category down since those were the most powerful DDR3 APUs. We will need an nForce or ATI chipset graphics for the DDR2 category. Someone also needs to run an ADL DDR5 iGPU for the last part of that category.

Dude I have been in HWBOT a long time and rules still trip me up. The worst for me was the flip-flop rule changes about base clock overclocking concerning Windows 8 and 10, but the changes involving hundreds of versions of benchmate are confusing too, let alone the very inconsistent policing of submissions. Something that annoys me is that some "cheaters" are grandfathered in because of old drivers and manipulations that may or may not be possible today. Despite all that, I still have a lot of fun with it. Just don't feel alone if you mess up the rules from time to time.

I just uploaded a 5600G result. I got #1 (so far), but a 5700G will surely beat it if someone has one.

In damric. Going to to be out of town so hopefully my rigs don't blow up

For us it was May and June that were oppressively hot 100+ daily, way too early in the year and it was also a drought. But it seemed like as soon as the Gulf got heated up by June it started raining every day so it's back to tolerable 95F but humid as hell. Also for me, I can't HWBOT until it cools down a bit. I'm about to be traveling a lot and hopefully it's a bit cooler when I get home in October like maybe 85-90

I haven't used sleep or hibernate functions in years because they never seem to work right with hardware. First thing I disable.

You have tried a different monitor?
