Folding Forum

Right now, running both 1 cpu client with 10 cores and 2 gtx1070s overclocked. Averaging about 1.4 m per day. Waiting on Vega release, to see if I go with Vega or 1080ti. Whole system is watercooled. Cpu and gpus average right 50c.

I am running 2 of those xeons in a 2p motherboard. Asrock Rack EP2C612WS. It has 7 PCIe slots and can easily fit 4 1080tis with 80 lanes. You can start with one cpu and as needed add in 2nd cpu. Motherboard is not much more expensive than the gigabyte board.

The beta client does not work well with multi gpus. You have to reset each slot after reboot or shutdown. I am running 2 6 core xeons and to gtx1070s on Mint 18.1. So I have 10 cores available for folding. I never have a problem with getting work. Also, I am running the 7.4.16 client. I would sugges...

Thanks to Steve Willis, both of my GPUs are running again. His method for Linux worked fine.

Update : working again. No changes by me.

Combined topic of reports that were being posted in 5 separate topics - j I have 2 GTX 1070s working. I have them folding 24/7.1st GPU has had no work assignments for 4 hours. Internet connection is good. Rebooted ,still same issue. Are servers down? Mint 18.1 2 xeons 2 GTX 1070s 21:47:11:WU00:FS01...

I run Mint 18.1 and Nvidia driver 370.28. Driver installation has become a lot better. The xserver that comes with driver does a pretty good job of displaying quite a bit of info for diagnostics. PCIE GEN,whether the card is at 16x or 8x, bandwith usage,temp and clocks. It will also allow you to ove...

Thank you for all the work PS3EdOlkkola. I see you are using Win 7 on all your systems. Have you tried Linux. From my experience with Nvidia cards, I show a significant increase in points on Linux with 2 GTX 1070s. With all your systems, that could be a major increase in points. Just a thought.

I just downloaded 370.28 driver off of Nvidia website. You have to be on Linux when you go to the site. hen I tried Windows 7, I could not find them. Good luck.

This a known problem with the beta 7.4.15. Every restart it will fail to assign the proper slots. Revert back to previous version. I ran 4 gpus on the old version with no problems. I tries the beta version and ran into the same problem.

I like a challenge. Will move over to NV when prices settle down. I tried Ubuntu and it would not allow me to install the drivers. Mint 17.3 allows me to get to the folding stage. The I5 6400 has an IGPU. I tried installing OS with just Intel IGPU and adding other cards and drivers after, then tried...

GPU WU is folding on CPU. Fresh install Mint 17.3. GPU drivers direct from AMD. After install checked with aticonfig. All 3 gpus listed and functioning. Only have 3 gpu slots configured in FAH. Started 1st gpu by itself. Downloaded and started folding. Using system monitor, only 1 cpu used for 30 se...

I caved in and went back to Win 7. Thanks for the help

Same machine on WIN7 64 ran fine. Did not want to buy another windows OS. Had 2 GTX 970's running in Linux with little problem. R9 NANO in Windows was getting @ 350,00 PPD

It initializes the xorg config file. But, after reboot I am back to square one. Problem has reemerged. High CPU usage and fahclient asking if I am overclocking. Running everything at stock. Did get to 17% done on GPU before problem.
