thanks for all previous helps in past . now my new config is


Phenom II X6
4GB Ram
HD 5750
500 W SMPS
21 LCD monitor HD
win7 64 bit

for this system is 9 hrs to complete the project 2 long or ok ?

thank u again all

WU shortages for ATI/AMD GPU clients are common. Sorry.

ty 4 quick reply , i got GPU WU after a while , ty


for cpu Folding i need to get extra fans for my cabnet , it getting ~65*C CPU temp and each cores 55+ after ~15+ minutes of folding


atm idle temp = 44*c and 35*c each cores(6)

Is that for your GPU?

ss showing all infos needed[GPU client, SMP client, cpu utilization , temp , cloak , etc

SMP client is showing 9 hrs and GPU client 5 hrs


my system spe

AMD Phenom II X6 1055T ,Benq G2220HD 22 ,GIGABYTE GA-880GM-UD2H ,COOLER MASTER Elite 310 ,CORSAIR 2GB 240-Pin DDR3 X2 , FSP Saga II 500 W HD 5750

9hrs for an SMP2 WU sounds about right but not for an GPU WU although ~6 hrs is what I get for core_16 but they're huge(50 million steps) compared to core_11 WU's (200K steps) and only 2.5hrs a pop

personally I think you'd be better getting rid of Fahtracker and HFM and using just the new V7.1.21 F@Hclient it's much easier to setup and keep track of whats going on

ty for reply , but where to get 7.1.21 version Folding@home client?

download page's latest is 6.31

edit

got V7 client

[Athlonite]

ok so now you've got V7 up and running in order to get your GPU to pick up Core_16 WU's (the new OpenCL WU's) you'll need to do a few things follow these steps and you wont go wrong
if you folow the yellow marker

1: Click Configure

2: Click the Slots tab

3: Select the GPU slot you added then click the edit button (bottom right)

4: In the :NAME field type: client-type
5: In the :value field type: advanced

6: click OK then OK again then click SAVE

now that you've done that the very next WU your GPU gets should be and Core_16 WU

[Romeopp]

i done, ty , hope i am getting new WU's

btw i finished SMP WC now and got creadited with 750 points

I've been procrastinating over doing F@H for ages. There are two main questions that seem to be stopping me from jumping in.

1 Will it run my graphics card flat out the whole time? I've got a GTX 580, so you can imagine how this would be undesirable

2 I did run F@H years ago and have a few units to my name. How do I get those back and associate them with TPU?

Ad 1. Yes and no. When it runs it runs 100 %. You decide when it runs.
Ad 2. Not possible but the points you earned for another team will still be yours but will not count towards milestones. See my stats here - http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/...name=MStenholm

Alright kids, I'm back into folding now that I have my i7 2600k ready to go, I kept bluescreening with my 5 GHz o/c, I had to dial it down to 4.5GHz in order to fold.

I got the two GTX470's and the 9800GTEco with the i7.

Whats the best way to set that hardware up for some monster numbers?

Thanks in advance!

[theoneandonlymrk]

having some issues with the v7 client still i have it folding on my 5870 and cpu in seperate slots at min, the prob is that if i try and set up my gt240 to fold with it it gives an error straight after downloadin a core, thats prob 1

also v7 isnt sending the completed work units right i dont think its actually sent 1 yet ive attached the log, any ideas?

Attachment 41693

at the min im folding with a gui v6 client on nv gt240 and v7 on 5870 and cpu but only the gt240 clients actually getting work completed right

[Athlonite]

3:17:31:Unit 06: Upload complete
13:17:31:Server responded WORK_ACK (400)

that says it uploaded on fine there the other error msg's just mean the server is overloaded at the moment and cannot accept your work at present they should keep trying to send though..
As for the other problem with the GT240 I have no idea other than maybe trying to use an switch to tell the client what your card is so the it d/l's the right core for you GPU

[theoneandonlymrk]

oh allright cos ive been uninstallin and reinstallin it to sort it i took every other folding client off too but the gt240 refuses to fold though i did catch the 5870's client running on it once ?? as seen by load in afterburner which was strange , reinstalled and its back to norm, gt240 failing unstable machine .

ive since down clocked a bit so my multi is its norm setting x9 x333 3.0Ghz , so the timings bang on and also alltered it to use 2 cores of four for the smp client so its got processing overhed free for the gpu clients but still gt240 wont fold its trying to use client x11 is that right?
and i cant find the right settings to put in for a gt240

again for V7 client which again seems to make it tricky with hybrid setups which is a shame because if you could throw any card you had in and fold on it that would be optimum

sorry but also when i click to check my stats it keeps going to the old team i folded for before seein t light, the couters not goin up but it makes it harder to see if its earning me out

[Athlonite]

there's walk through just up a bit in this thread follow that to tell Fahclient your GPU is an G92 what exact switch you need I don't know as I don't use nVidia GPU's Buck Nasty might be able to help there more than I can with what switches to use

[theoneandonlymrk]

ive gone and returned it to the way it was v7 running cdu @smpx2 on the q6600 and the 5870, with the nvidia on its own client ive them all being productive but still has issues returning work and connecting ave they got 1 pc over there or sumat

i couldnt find the switch, V7 did find the card automatically it just kept returning unstable machine 122 which cant be fully right as its working fine now and im unable to find the right switch i tried many allready lol most just disapear so as peeps know they may have been taken but who knows, i do know that if i try to get the gt240 to fold with the 5870 it sometimes takes over from the 5870 with its core x16 but v7 wont work both at same time correctly just returns error

i appreciate the help guys and im now quite happy as at least ive got both cards running plus a 2x smp core but is it worth me running 1 single unix core as well

83 on the nv at min folding with stock clocks 575 on core 14xx on shader std im just gona run it seperate anyway as it lets me see my wu and stuff and can be ran all the time whilst gamein,on this my main pc, i intend up scaling up my wu over this year just as soon as i upgrade to an 8 core bulldozer this will fold perm till it dies with 3 decent nv cards in it (mobo has 3 crossfireable slots but i think itll work as gt240 is in one of the main CF pciex slots at min working fine)

im kinda treatin this as a learning period

nv at 99% load sos

First time I've setup SMP and first time using client V7. Followed the instructions here to setup.

Does this look correct? I did the thing to setup as bigadv, but I can't tell a regular SMP from a BidAdv:

-one more question... what is TPF? I see that term a lot in the forum but don't know what it means or how the time it shows corresponds to anything.
