Folding Forum

Am I the only one whose folding points are being fillintheblank_ed by Project 9839?

Not only do I average 10-25% lower output from these on my 1070's, I not-too-infrequently return to find one having swallowed my GPU, sometimes outputting 50% or less. At least twice have I found it chugging along at 27% or less. If I pause the slot and wait several seconds to resume it, it will resume folding at the happy 80-85% average PPD capacity. I have also paused and unpaused it without a several seconds delay, and found it outputting the exact same (whereupon I re-cycle the pause "with" the several seconds delay.

OS and drivers:
Linux, Nvidia 370.23

In responding please have experience with Project 9839

Project 9839 only runs of Linux machine. While I run Windows, I could only run its sister project 9838. I had completed 15 work units of 9838, but have not seen one in a while.

I have completed 88 of these on Ubuntu 14.04 using driver 367.57 between 3/8/17 and 4/5/17 on 4 - 980Ti's all have completed between :40 sec and :43 sec TPF all my cards are overclocked some so maybe you have a driver problem or if overclocking maybe a oc problem, you may want to try changing drivers. Unfortunately I do not have any 10xx version cards running on Linux.

I had 9 or 10 of those until now; certainly a project for which I also would prefer a slight push in credits but understand that sometimes its difficult to find sweet-spots for all hardware configurations around; so it be. On 980TI and 1070 under CentOS with 378.09 I had TPF around 42 seconds. One time I had a system crash but the 9839-WU continued well after restart and finished successfully.

I've run a few using driver 373 and they are showing normal PPD on my 1070 running on Ubunutu 14.04
