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!

FINALLY starting to cool down around here so I might be able to actually leave most of the stuff folding the whole time.

You will probably beat me and get first this time, then.

Beating you is pretty simple since I know exactly what you are running and what PPD to expect out of you. Getting first depends on who else shows up ready to party. When the weather cools down it benefits everybody with serious rigs, not just me. When people like Elblat or Firedfly get serious, it's much harder to keep up. 

 

At the end of the day, it's all for a good cause and in good fun so it doesn't really matter who "wins". 

[neurotix]

Agreed, was just stating it's likely. Also elblat has not been participating for a few months now, firedfly did like 3 months ago but not since. So I've been winning them. You're right that it's not about who wins, it's the cause and I should know that well since I fold on my 4090 in Linux OCed 24/7. I think I literally just passed elblat on the team as well.

 

You have all these high powered cards, too bad you don't have time to bench them all for hwbot

 

My grandma died from cancer in 2019 and my grandpa died from COVID in 2021. I have no surviving grandparents now. So that's the cause.

Well well well, you'll be hard pressed to beat my single. 230w limited 6900XT.

 

That said, in, SoloCamo
