    Down to the last few hours. I decided to spin up a few extra cards to torment my long-term rival @neurotix. Sorry bud I couldn't help myself 😂

     

    That comes at the cost of the office being a bit warm 🥵 while I'm in here building my rack mount GPU storage shelf. I only have 20 of these risers currently but the rails are 3' deep so I can squeeze 3 or 4 shelves worth in here.

    We're AMD fan boys and were in a facility stuck locked away so we can't do as we please in this life like you guys, we have county public administrator guardians and conservators that control our money.

     

    Thanks on the BIOS update support for A10-6800B, you really think it'll work?

     

    A10-6800B is too expensive and rare i'll stick with the A10-5800B as it's available in the USA and way cheaper less than $25 shipped.

     

    So my new problem is I cannot download the BIOS update for the PC, can you upload the BIOS update here?

     

    Do you need the serial number?

    yes, and does he have to have low profile, Ill donate a gtx 1060 3gb thats probably twice the performance of the 550

    This one's a Dell OptiPlex 3050 Minitower chassis (clearance special on DellRefurbished.com) so full height cards accepted.  And whoa, even a 1050Ti might be a good workhorse/space heater.  I'm in Georgia, USA if you're interested in parting with that powerhouse 😛

     


    I have a Seasonic ATX PSU, 360 Watts, probably 80+ Gold just sitting around from my old pfSense build.  Dell switched from standard ATX power supplies about 5 years ago so I'd maybe have to drill new holes or just...duct tape it and avoid eye contact haha.

    I wonder if anyone here's got a nice rackmount server full of GPUs for Folding@home.  If I had a spare $10-15k to blow and a separate household circuit, I'd build a beast of a rig.  Kind of wanna get a 220Volt setup in the future house instead of dealing with 120 Volt 15 Amp or 20 Amp circuits for the "data center" / home lab.

     

    I'm hosting/running 12 (so far)(excuse the mess, still unpacking)

    Ran my own 220v

    There are some wild ETAs.  😬

    Definitely gonna try GPU folding for the next EHW challenges.  I've been getting FOMO this whole time.  I'm trying to find a good, reliable source for an Nvidia RTX A2000 since it uses 75 Watt bus power and doesn't need aux power, which this Dell OptiPlex PSU doesn't have.

    is it SFF? ill have to find a LP bracket if so, but I have a Aliexpress LP 1050TI that you can have. no power connector and it does 3-500k a day

    With some of these whopper 24 hour work units, if I get two of those, I may not be able to meet the 10 WU minimum in 48 hours.  I'll have 4 boxes CPU folding.  I might see if I can spin up an old server and maybe a laptop just to be safe.  Still looking forward to this contest!  I did the 96-hour one and it was fun.

    I'll put a GTX 1080 in your name for this comp, DM me your passkey
