I undervolt and underclock my GPUs when I fold, even with my 1070 I have doing some work every now and again, I wouldn't put extra strain on any hardware as it's not a short term win

Slow and steady wins the race I believe

I have a completed WU it's trying to upload. Looked up the ip address on the server stats page, and the server is offline.

@biffzinker You can put your FAH client on "Pause", wait a few seconds, the put it back on "Fold", or you can just wait. It will retry on it's own.

You are not alone and as far as I read on the F@H forum there are nothing that you can do. I re-started one of my rigs since I got tired to see a timed out WU with send status. You can hope that it will transmit before time-out but prepare to take a loss.

Is there a way to remove it?

Not until it is past the 7 day deadline and then you need to re-start the FAHClient. Could be 10 days, I don’t know which WU you have problem with.

Sorry that I didn’t have the timeout for all/any WUs ready, I run 24/7 and until two weeks ago never had a problem with time outs. It is a new thing that F@H have more than 1M CPU+GPUs and that the collection servers can’t keep up. Any way you have less than four days to upload. If it works, good, if not re-start client.

Edit: if points is a problem PM me. I can re-config a GPU for a WU or two.

I am having issues with getting the graphics card to work. I have gotten the processor going. What needs to be done to get it working for the gpu.

You have to be more specific. is it the normal problem with no work available? Have a look at https://foldingforum.org/

FAHControl, Configure, Slots, Add (GPU) OK.

Is there a way to tell F@H to stop requesting new WUs after a certain time?

You can just click finish and this will complete the current WU and will stop getting any future ones

hmm it's just that my internet connection is through my phone, so when I leave for work, the PC will have no Internet. I'm thinking if there is a way for the finish button to trigger at like 3am

NastyHabits · Apr 9, 2020

@Flanker You can also just hit Pause before you leave, then hit Resume when you return. There is no way to set any of the functions to a specific time.

“There is no success without sacrifice.”
Set your alarm for 3 AM, select Finish in the client and go back to bed.
I'm only kidding of course. Or am I?

@thebluebumblebee Great quote sir. "You Can't Always Get What You Want" by the Rolling Stones also comes to mind.

Only got 1 WU today anyone else?
I started doing the WCG and have noticed since that my WU's for folding have been almost nonexistent.

I have seen some wait-time and it seems like @XZero450 had some downtime on his 4x2070 super rig as well. There are no connection between WCG and folding at all.

It wasn't great for me yesterday either, the wu's for FAH were slow coming down for whatever reason..

Flanker · Apr 12, 2020

Could it be that the current batch of COVID related WU's are running out? I'm starting to get a few cancer related WU's

mx500torid · Apr 15, 2020

I fired up 2 machines last night. Wanted to break in the new 5700 XT. Really just an excuse. I miss folding. Started F@H and kept getting message that no WU were available for my configuration. I had to add the client-type advanced flag to get a WU. Looks like between 800k and 900k ppd. Not the 1.4 million on here ttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1vcVoSVtamcoGj5sFfvKF_XlvuviWWveJIg_iZ8U2bf0/pub?gid=0. The 2080 just took off so i went to bed. Woke up a couple hours later and no work for the 2080. So added the advanced flag still no work so added the beta flag also. Got a WU. At least the 2080 is doing better than it use to, 1.6 million ppd. Stock clocks on both. The 5700 boosts to 2035 on 3DMark DX12 but stays around mid 1700s on F@h. 72C temps and 170 power draw.
