Dude Michele loves playing Pinball FX, which from the looks of your machine, some of those are the exact same simulations, but she's playing on a controller. Just a moment... STORE.EPICGAMES.COM i guess yeah I'm curious if I could build one, what all it would take. Building the computer part is the easy part, but I would want to build hers as nice as the one you worked on. That baby looks awesome. No rush. I'm on vacation and just got to my hotel after 8 hour drive with her and my two dogs (well one dog one coyote).

@UltraMega ok how much will it cost for you to build these?

This is growing into a very solid community.

Sounds like SSD controller possibly. I would rule that out by trying another SSD

Following last year's tournament, EHW incurred additional expenses distributing prizes to winners in the form of shipping and border duties/taxes. Please ensure you ask additional questions if you are selected as a winner. If you do NOT wish to cover import duty fees established by your country, please refuse the prize when selected.

Note: Stats are updated as soon as possible, but less frequent than desired. Just keep folding! Note: Extreme Team Members remember to use a different pass key than your ETF key (If you don't know what that is then it probably does not apply to you). Folding is stressful on hardware, and will often break an overclock unless it's been tested with folding. I do not recommend overclocking high end GPUs as the power draw can be extreme while folding. If anything, try tuning for energy efficiency. Casualties happen and EXTREMEHW can not be held accountable if you destroy your hardware while folding. Thank you for your participation! WINNERS!!!

Added 2x $50 paypal gift cards from @neurotix to the prize pot.

Alright I was doing a massive amount of cleaning the office laboratory and I located another set of PATRIOT VIPER STEEL. Good Samsung B-die benching RAM. I have run these as fast as 4000CL14, but your milage will vary on CPU and motherboard. https://assets.website-files.com/63b6412d4ef17b35c8b5f9d5/6434b84039b63bb3967c1980_PVS416G440C9K_sku_sheet.pdf These will be random draw prize, but I'll set the bar at 15 WUs to qualify.

We didn't require you to vote yourself IN on this contest and we took into account that some would be overseas and set aside money to cover such shipping. But if you really don't want a sticker I'll redraw your name. These are VERY GOOD stickers. Same one I have on the back of my GPU block. I believe they are static cling so are easy to put on and take off a clean surface.

Ok so this configuration has been stable for me for a while now: I'm going to see if I can get more cores folding. I'd really like to get 24-28 logical cores going if I can.

yeah so far I'm having no crashes when I process lasso the CPU folding to one chiplet and assign the other other folding processes to the other chiplet like the stuff that controls the GPU folding. I am not so good at software so I just experimented to see what crashes. I am going to test and hope that I can assign more cores via the lasso and still not crash. When I let windows load the cores it eventually crashes. I don't know if it doesn't like crossing the chiplets or if it is the on/off nature of how windows assigns workloads or what. when I get a chance I'll take some screenshots of how I setup process lasso. I am using the freebie version that makes you wait 10 seconds before changing things.

Ok the winners of the random draw stickers are: @franz @Duality92 @BritishBob @Minotaurtoo @SoloCamo @Memmento Mori @Broseph @Nicnac @ConsiderationOn @neurotix Please send your shipping address to @Fluxmaven and he will get these out to you as soon as they are ready.

Nice work! Tons of points and Work Units completed! I'll get with @Fluxmaven to get the winners of the stickers picked. I'm looking at December 22,23,24 for next foldathon. Will have an announcement for that once that date gets set in stone.

We will have some prizes listed soon. A while back I removed the "IN" requirement. Instead if you don't want a prize, I'd rather you opt out.

he'll get it working

pull everything from the case. we must know if the board is being shorted or bent from standoffs

you taken everything out of the caee yet to test on a piece of cardboard or something? Got to start eliminating everything, fans, aios, drives, you name it

It's haunted. Man this is a weird one. How old is the PSU? That's always a logical place to start.

So green light on those? I'd like to be able to order them ASAP for foldathon winners

@ir_cow can probably shed some light on this. If he doesn't see this, I would go find him at TPU.

IN

I feel like I will buy one of these every month

Very good performance! Congrats @axipher you won the random prize

Whatever you are typing that message on, FOLD IT

Oh no sir, you are eligible for a hat or a mug! Speaking of which I need to fire up my folding rig and run windows updates. Then I need to work out one small problem with one of the quadros.
