I think using the 570 on it's own might be the best bet.. Do you know what wattage the card is pulling for running FAH? :)

I don't know for sure, but I guess around 30W (That is the TDP) Maybe a bit less.

Anyway I took all my rigs offline for an hour to sort out my setup tonight, move the machines into better positions and link all equipment up to the same outlet, with my power meter. Total Usage of the entire setup is 750W~ at the wall, which is a lot higher than I thought. This does include three monitors and a halogen lamp, though.

Edit: Ah, did you mean the 570? According to software readings it uses ~100W at 1284MHz when Folding.

The new Core 22 is now moved from beta to advance. If you are folding with AMDs expect some problems. The only WU for now is 11733 so if it fails remove advance flag until they are sorted out.
For Nvidia folders - be aware that this new core is more efficient than 21 meaning that GPU utilization goes up from typical 90 to 95% and that power consumption and heat rises. Points as well.

Everything is set up, 1660 folding away; PPD seems to have plateaued. Not a bad result :) 62% higher perf/watt than RX 570 :)
 
That 1660 is not bad. I can see that my 1070ti averages 684K and a 2060 746k, both with a small OC but in same rig so at 2.0x8. The 11427 is not a good (high yield) WU on the 2060, on the 1070ti it's a little below average.
 
I went on a little vacation. When I came back, started all my PC's back up. I got a weird error with F@H on my remote PC. It said my "core" needed updating. It never did, so I uninstalled and reinstalled F@H. Set it up with passkey and all, and it's working now.

But.. I can no longer monitor it remotely with HFM.NET. I get this error:
[6/24/2019-10:37:47 PM] X (Fido) Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
[6/24/2019-10:37:47 PM] X System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Any ideas?
 
It's fixed! I fired up HFM.net today just for kicks, and it's working! I can see my remote pc!

I had previously done a complete uninstall/reinstall of HFM. But that didn't fix it at the time. Why it's working now I don't know, but I'll take it. :)
 
I have a problem with a WU that just won't upload, more precisely the PRCG 14228 (158, 1, 16).

I finished that WU yesterday in the afternoon and every time FAH tries to upload it, it fails, throwing this in the logs:

I have not made any changes to the system/network configs, and while this is a Windows Insider preview build it works fine (in fact, I finished at least two or three more WUs which have been uploaded correctly) so I don't get why this one in particular refuses to be uploaded...
 
Well, there's always the old "Have you tried restarting the client?"

Yes. And I shutdown the computer every night.

Also, removing slots doesn't seem to do a thing, since the WU just stays there, forever trying to connect to the server... The strange thing is I keep getting new WUs and once they're finished they get sent just fine :confused:

Doesn't look like its a problem at your end then if other units after this one are uploading fine then it's a server issue at stamfords end I'd try posting this in the actual F@H forums someone there will be better able to tell you if it is you or their server

I've had this before also, it seems to have a weird 5 minutes every so often but does normally sort itself out. What I have tried in the past is a ping to that address, if that doesn't work, then there's something wrong with their end if everything else you do works :) (That's my way of thinking anyways..... lol)
 
Im having a problem with Ubuntu. When I try to download a new wu, it downloads some then stops. Windows work fine on the same machine, its just Ubuntu. Restart the machine and same thing.

@agent00skid ? You might just have been unlucky. I have seen it a few times as well but it is not a general problem for me. There are server problems at Stanford so maybe the problem is at there.
 
If you have a reasonable up-load connection try client-type, beta. The new core 22 is out in beta and the WUs are big (11738 and 39) and taxing, GPU load on Windows is up to 98% but the reward is HIGH points.
 
Been out of the game for a while. Fired up F@H on one rig and it took off using CPU and GPU right away. Fired it up on a second rig in the same location and I'm having trouble getting WUs.
Working rig: i7 8700K & GTX 1060
Non-working rig: i7 6700K & GTX 980


Tried restarting F@H and I confirmed I can reach all IPs listed below. Any insights?

Did the usual Google routine and didn't come up with much other than a possible "Server is out of workunits" answer. I can't imagine support for the 900 series cards have been phased out already, has it? Seems like I would still get CPU WUs.

F@H problems
 
I thought the same but figured it was something else since one PC worked first try and the second wasn't even after multiple attempts to contact the servers. The PC with issues had just been rebooted but I gave it another reboot anyways and it took off. I'm not convinced that was the issue but it's working so I don't think I'll look this gift horse in the mouth. :rolleyes:

Thanks!
 
It's still better to run WCG on the CPU, saving one thread for the F@H client.
 
I'm not getting WU's here , every now and then I get a WU but mostly stuck idle trying to DL a job with a Vega 64.
Is it me, my rig or the servers?

It's been like that for me too, on RX 580, for the last couple of days. At best, I catch something for my CPU, but the WU well seems to be dried up lately.

Kinda stupid, you have company's pointing to folding@home as a way to combat cov19 yet this is how it is.
I hope Nvidia card's are doing better.
