If I said that, or even respond to that, would you complain that Stanford always blames NV? The FAH Developers are constantly doing their best to minimize any inequality, especially when errors are involved. Sometimes it's something they can fix... sometimes it depends on required changes to the Dr...

Do most people on your team use similar hardware. i.e Nvidia GPU's? Because obviously if everyone uses similar hardware, then they will all experience similar results. If there was a team that only used R9 270X's - they would have just got a massive 30% performance boost. All I'm getting at, is that...

No - and the concept of "normal ppd" is wrong. As an example, I was getting a nice steady 80K ppd from a R9 270X. Now, in the last week, all of a sudden I'm getting 105K ppd. But I haven't changed anything, It can't be AMD's fault because I haven't changed drivers. It can't be Microsofts f...

Actually I've noticed a few times recently where the stats at Extremeoverclocking seem to be running a bit "behind". I.e. where the Stanford stats show x number of WU's completed in the previous x hours - but those stats are not picked up within the 3 hour update at Extremeoverclocking. No...

Hi PJEC, There's nothing in the log extract to suggest anything is wrong. Why do you think you are missing points? 15:15:54:WU01:FS01:Server responded WORK_ACK (400) 15:15:54:WU01:FS01:Final credit estimate, 44320.00 points These 2 lines mean the server accepted your WU for an estimated 44320 points...

I'm also wondering about this. Are gaming GPUs best? Would I be best getting 4xTitan X's or shall I consider investing in GPUs made for rendering? The gpu's in pro rendering cards (Firestream or Quadro) are basically the same as the gpu's in the gaming cards (Radeon or Geforce). The differences are...

Talking about bias: I'm a fan of the green side of GPU folding and use two GTX 970 under Linux (CentOS 7). One 970 pulls avg. 155W and yield around 280k PPD in the long run. Not bad for my taste. I have generally leaned more toward the red team over the years, no reason why other than at each momen...

As for the supply itself a google search seems to indicate that it is a single rail..... It has a single 12v rail, but it still has mutliple rails for the other voltages, 3.3 5,etc. I was sugesting that the 750w figure comes from combining the total load at all voltages. This used to be standard pr...

The 750 figure is probably just the maximums from each rail added together. Admitedly not many manufacturers still do this, but there's always some that will. I doubt that PSU can actually deliver anywhere near 750w. Just had a quick look on google, and that model only has an efficency of 78%, so it...

I can't say how the R9 380 will fold, but you probably should have gone for a 970. The issues you describe are related to really high resolution gaming, nothing else. And the memory bandwith of the 960 is irrelevent to folding. The maxwell architecture is just "better" for folding atm. The...

I wouldn't put much faith in that google docs list. I have a R9 270X that has never got anywhere near the 100k ppd suggested in the list, it usually makes 80-85k ppd. I've also got a couple of GTX 970's that average about 290k ppd and very occasionally get 320-350k ppd. Again nowhere near the figure...

Hi dreamscape, Have a look at the log tab, and see what % the WU got up to. What's probably happened is that your video driver has crashed at some point much earlier than 99.99%, and the progress bar has just carried on ticking away. When you can identify the time that the WU stopped being processed...

Like everything in life, a little give and a little take might just get you the data you desire. EOC is always looking for donations to keep the servers running, bandwidth pumping and disks spinning, so perhaps a nice donation along with a polite request to have the data emailed to you in CSV forma...

I was wondering if there was a way to see my historic contributions going back further than the 12 months covered by EOC. I re-started folding during the first week of Feb 2015, but i was curious to see when my last submitted WU was before the time I re-started. I read on the EOC site that they keep...
