Just higher overall boost maybe? The boost on the 666 bios is noticeably higher than my stock MSI bios boost. Edit: I mean 67~68C isn't that bad but I liked it better when it was 58~62C

Oh, neat. I was in the Team Competition on OCN for many years (Brass Bottom Boys). I remember folding 24/7 for a year on an HD 6870 that got around 7000 ppd. I remember getting my first million after so long. Now I get million or close enough in 45 minutes. Lol Had no idea we had a similar thing here.

Thanks. What is ETF?

Question: can different 18601 units put a different load on the GPU depending on Run, Clone and Gen? Basically, most of the time until recently my card would stay around 62c, go down to 58c, then come back up to 62c, with 80% fan. Now with the same work units and same clocks I am seeing the card stay around 66c. If I unlock the power limit all the way and run a higher OC, it runs around 69c. Essentially; card is running hotter than it has been since I started folding, all three fans seem to be spinning, they are at 80%, I'm wondering if its the units causing it or if there's something wrong with my card, because if there is then I won't fold.

So for the above design, if you're on mobile max your brightness as the terminal boot text is at a layer opacity of like 8% Also this one will have to go on a black shirt as the Linux terminal stuff is in a black box. If E or anyone else likes it let me know and I'll send the 0 compression png to @UltraMega

Agreed but I don't want this shh- either, hasn't been used in years lol. The Yate Loon fan in particular was essentially bought and never used. I'll probably donate the keyboard to Salvation Army down the street and just toss the fans. No big deal, and you're right- its the thought that counts. Next time I might do PayPal gift cards.

Alright then. People have passed on the prizes I offered enough, basically I only have someone to send the mousepad to. Basically, if you want either the 1) Yate Loon Fan, 2) Delta fan, or 3) Corsair K70 Lux mechanical keyboard (Cherry MX Red switches), please pm me with the prize you want and your address.This is limited to people who participated in the foldathon only. I will wait til next Wednesday then ship stuff out, and that will be the deadline for claiming a prize.

Already posted in Discord but why not here. With the Galaxy 666 power limit bios, and my card at 2940MHz all day in Linux Mint, I did 36m a few days ago. Yesterday was only 33. Also, Avacado I have the memory at stock so you're probably right and it doesn't affect PPD.

Giving people a week from when I posted the winners to claim their prizes or pass on them, then they will be shipped out and any left I will keep until the next foldathon or maybe donate them or something. Does anyone know who Beelzebub -django is on the forums?

So I came up with this. I think Enterprise is fairly familiar with Linux, and I'm a huge advocate for it myself. I will also be doing an MIT Knights of the Lambda Calculus themed shirt in a similar style with LISP in the background, probably tomorrow.

Even though Enterprise said he's not accepting any more designs, I have one more t shirt in mind that I'm gonna do. I also just sent some high quality art assets to @UltraMega for him to get some inspiration- I put ExtremeHW.net in a bunch of different fonts, I sent some more gradiented circuit board traces, and also have some computer related icon fonts and a font that is nothing but computer mice so I put all those in too, maybe Ultra can use this stuff to come up with some more cool mug designs or something. Dunno.

You're posting some very classy music, Jan. I'll have to listen to all this soon. I mostly listen to metal, trance (which your generation can't stand generally lol) and older 80s and 90s rap. I also listen to and enjoy classical but am not very well versed in it. I like Vivaldi Four Seasons and Dvorak New World symphony. I just finished listening to Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here", whole album, on my retro stereo with my ma. The only genre I can't get into and generally can't stand is country, the exception being I love Johnny Cash (but I heard he qualifies more as rock than country). Thank you for posting these so an entitled millennial can expand his musical taste, lol.

Hi @J7SC_Orion. Thank you for your very encouraging, very thoughtful post full of suggestions. I am so sorry it has taken me this long to reply to it. I saw my doctor yesterday and got my Tylenol #3 refilled, as well as an increase in the dose of gabapentin, since I was on hydrocodone following a procedure and they had dropped me down to one 5mg a day that I had to split. I was previously on tylenol #3 before the procedure. I also recently saw a hip doctor as I have bad hip pain, especially sitting. Initially, they wanted to do a hip femoacetabular surgery to the left hip first, then the right. However, I had the left hip MRI'ed (and thankfully my insurance approved it without 6 weeks of physical therapy) and they basically said I have moderate arthritis in the joint and that this would prevent me from getting the femoacetabular surgery. Interestingly, there is no torn labrum of the left hip anymore, which showed up on previous MRIs, and they said it could have healed on it's own. Anyway, what ended up happening is they injected me with 40mg of kenalog in both hips with a 3 inch needle. It was not fun to have done and I am very sore, even as I sit at my PC and type this out. This was on Tuesday that they injected me, but I am very sensitive to injections and having had steroid in the past, it makes me very sore for a week before I get relief. Finally, I was told I need a hip replacement and they don't want to do it because "I'm young" (38, I don't feel young) and would like to delay it for as long as possible and give me steroid injections every 3 months instead. However, we got a referal to the doc there that does hip replacements and I kind of just want to get it done and over with. The replacement lasts around 20 years and then needs to be removed and put back in and I'll be 58 then and actually old. Anyway, I've been keeping myself busy and hanging in there but have needed a lot of medication to deal with how bad my hips hurt from those injections. I will get relief in due time, and if I don't, then that would be a green light to proceed with the hip replacement. Now to address your post. We tried looking for the "Thrive" gum you mentioned, and my mom (who was a nurse for 20 years) said it seems to be the same as the regular generic nicotine gum I already have. Also, it is not available in the US, however we can import it from Canada on ebay. I am wondering if there is something different/special about it that generic nicotine gum does not have, like does it burn the back of your throat or something? If I get a hip replacement, I will probably be forced to quit. It's like $10 + shipping for 36 ct Thrive gum, so let me know if its different than the regular stuff. Regarding pregabalin- I have been on this in the past and it was not effective for me. as I said I am on gabapentin and it helps, and the dose was just increased from 1200mg to 1600mg daily. It is literally hell to go without this med as I will have increased neck, low back and hip pain as well as pain all down the back of my arms and legs, and random stabbing pains throughout my body. I was off it for a year from 2020 to mid 2021 and the pain daily got to be so severe (fibromyalgia) that I had no choice but to ask my PCP to put me back on gabapentin. Regarding exercise, any type of exercise, even just cleaning our master bedroom and bathroom (vacuuming, dusting, lysol wipes on the toilet and sink, Screen Mom and a microfiber cloth on the mirror, etc) puts me in really bad pain. I used to study martial arts, I still have an 80 lbs. heavy bag hung up, I have a weight bench, I have some folding mats to put down on the floor to do Yoga or Qigong (like Tai Chi) on, but I don't do any of it because it just puts me in horrific pain the next day. Walking is also difficult and what with injections and back surgeries and so forth I have not done that, though my wife and I went on a long walk the other day and I tolerated it well (this was before the hip injections). But yes, she gets no exercise either and taking daily walks has been discussed though it is supposed to be in the teens next week and frigid cold like that is really bad for fibro. I should stop making excuses and just get out there and do it, I need to lose weight. Anyway, that's my update and my response. Please let me know about the Thrive gum thing and if it's different than generic nic gum.

Theres 5 actually but thanks.

Can you do the embroidered black hat design with the text on the flat bill hat in black? I'd buy that for a dollar.

You mean the designs I came up with... And Flux did one cuz they're a lazy girl

Just a moment... WWW.OVERCLOCK.NET Hopefully if that link works, it was my documentation on OCN of building the GMMK and should give you a few reference points or a visual idea on what to do.

Lol @Fluxmaven I see your PONPONPON and raise you one Glico ice no mi commercial.

Those look great but one is missing: the logo with gradient icons on a white shirt. (Let me know if it wasn't in the high res art i sent but I'm pretty sure I included it) If you could add that one and edit the post that would be great. Thanks and good working with you privately.

It's kawaii

Hell no. Lol

Just for @Fluxmavengamer girl.
