pricey, but also quality. right now using them in 2 compute rig, 1 rig for FAH, 1 rig for gpugrid.net

maybe updating to FAH 7.5.1 and deleteing FAH-working folder will work??

- rtx 2080 Ti founders edition
- hp quadro p6000 24gb memory (z0b12aa). p6000 is pascal-gpu like gtx 1000 serie

driver version 419. but now it is all OK. no errors anymore, even msi-util closed

after making passkey I get now around 3,2 million PPD, with no power limit . total power draw of the whole system from the wall is about 850-860 watt for 6 gtx1070. power draw of each card is around 90-95 watt. with power limit set to 50% is totall power draw of the whole computer around 630-640 wat...

ok, i didnt reboot. i changed only the values of the gpus (checking small selection squares and applied) and then started folding without reboot. 2 minutes after these steps system hangs. hard reboot with mainboard restart switch and it helped.
monday i will do it as it should be.

thanks

no passkey yet...should that make more performance?

ok, ppl….my test rig with 6x gtx 1070 is online, just started. mainboard: asus p9x79-e ws (with 2 PLX8747 pcie switches, 7x pcie-slots) cpu: xeon e5-2690 v2 (10 core, hypererthreading 20 units) gpu: msi and gigabyte gtx 1070 8gb, undervolted with msi afterburner (power limit 50%) folding speed gpu's...

a question about MSI-utility....should I always run this small tool when I am folding? in the background running?

I wrote this post specifically for what you are looking to do: https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=28869 This is my eighteenth year folding so I have a little experience. I have two solid machines running with the AMD FX-8350/8370 CPU's for years now. They are cheap to acquire. Then I...

pcie-lane-wise is threadripper is much and much better choice than any hedt intel solution. rigth now i have 3x threadripper builds, running gpugrid.net and wcg. @nathan_p, i am aware of the problems with 1080 Ti and x299. next week i will get my stuff (asus p9x79-e ws with 7 slots pcie and 2 plx874...

as i understand correct, better is cut the cost of CPU and mainboard and buy new GPU-cards. ok, smart advise. i guess i am going to choose for RTX 2060 MSI Ventus XS https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForce-RTX-2060-VENTUS-XS-6G-OC/Specification . Ventus XS version because it is 10mm shoter than MS...
