TPU's F@H Team

Those are new WU's. 660x. Not the 3469's that were giving such good numbers on G92's, but actually slower on the GTX2xx cards

191.07. Both Fahcore 11 and 14 are current. That GTX 260 from my previous post is doing a 550 wu @ 9504 ppd. They are coming from Fahcore 14
 
What happened on the last (EOC & Kakao) update? How could I end up at #4 for the update? Buck's in 15th place!

I hope that it's only non-updated points, like the rest of us. Some of the new wu's do run hot.
 
A good deal with an *
Newegg is selling the ASUS EN9800GT/DI/512MD3 GeForce 9800 GT 512MB for $70 after a $20 MIR and free shipping with promo code EMCYPZZ44
* this is a good price for a 9800GT looking back in time. With the GT240's out, which is replacing this card, and uses less energy to get the same PPD (does not match up for gaming though), the price moving forward will most likely drop like they did for the 9600GSO's (got down to $35 w/MIR) when they cleared them out. GT240's have already gone as low as $90. I have two of the 9600GSO version of this card and that cooler works well, but there is no user control of the fan speed, but the auto speed control seems to keep the temps in check.
 
Good job guys, we racked 1.1 Mil tonight due to Msgclb's double or triple bigadv points:rockout:. I manage to sneak one in:D

Two bigadv WUs uploaded but I had to restart my third i7 because the output was all error codes. It looks like my third i7 did upload a bigadv WU tonight before messing up. Unfortunately that's all the bigadv WUs I'll have for a couple of days.

:toast: team.:)
 
Oh man, hope my 260 gets here soon, at least 3 folders coming for me.... Let's fill the 3 mil slots guys and gals!
 
So TPU made another spot within the last hour..... now officially 40th and another possible within a couple of weeks :D

btw dont tell anyone but I'm running the 196.75 drivers :eek: (I think there great F@H drivers so far from a weeks use they seem to be good)

I found disabling sli has gained loads of PPD and stablised the issues I was having with these new WU's and are able to keep my OC's
I'm getting 9.9k on each gpu on the 548's
10k for the 450's
10.5k on the 753 and
11k on the 353's

w00t w00t


and.... the 548's do an half make my cards scream like no othe wu ive folded before lol :eek:

Thanks Hertz...
 
Speaking of drivers... I was having random lock ups on my Phenom/8800GTS setup so I decided to try to use different drivers. I had been using 191.xx drivers for the longest time since I never had any issues with them, but after updating the drivers on my Phenom to 196.21 it has not locked up yet and performance seems to be up :eek:

Tempted to try it out on my GTX275s now!


2k posts
 
That's for the info guys. Sharing is good.:toast: Maybe i'll give one of the newer drivers a try.
 
been putting those 8800GTS's I got from Buck to use recently
 
I moved over to 196.21 on my main rig with the 275s, I will see how they do over the next few days and report back- hopefully with good news :cool:

You're welcome. The GTX 260 that johnspack has been talking about for a while is coming from me. I have made note to myself to never use USPS ground to Canada.
 
Yeah, I've just heard it may take another week even from a neighbor who's dealt with ground before. Oops. I guess I'll pay for xpresspost or whatever the equivalent is down there next time I get something from the states! On another note, anyone using FahSpy? http://fahspy.org/ I don't think I've ever seen it mentioned, and I think I like it better than fahmon!

I recommend you try out HFM.net. I've completely switched to it and its resolved almost all issues I was having with F@Hmon. On top of that, it can display a wealth of information that neither F@Hmon nor FahSpy seem to be able to match.

Also, if you still have your F@Hmon configuration you can save it to a file that HFM.net can read. You can use this import all your clients into HFM.net in one easy step, so its very easy to give it a trial run.
 
hmmm just installed HFM and imported FahMon's settings. First impression- it doesnt look as clean :laugh: Time to explore more.

EDIT: Its nice that you can see the previous WUs completed and you can see the arguments being used by each client. Definitely more information with this program, but the overall look is poor compared to FahMon in my opinion. Im going to use it for the next week to test it out some more.

Eh, I rarely have the monitoring program up and running on the screen. It's usually hidden away in the tray. I do love seeing the Successful / Failed count, and I love seeing that in the past 6 weeks I've only experienced 3 failed work units out of ~3000 even more. It sucks that the count gets restarted when the F@H client window closes (thus triggering a new F@Hlog), but then again not everything can be perfect.

Not sure if the program points this out on install or not, but you can set it up to display the Extreme Overclocking stats. This itself was a selling point for me, aside from it correctly estimating PPD on the bonus system. I don't remember if F@Hmon or FahSpy have added estimating the bonus functionality yet or not though.
 
Oh I see, the bonus feature does not apply to me since I am a 100% GPU folder. This is probably best for CPU folders then for sure.

I didn't have FahMon up either, it spends nearly all its time minimized too, but when it was open, it was clean :D I like the mouse over information on HFM too.

How do you get it to show the right EOC information? Never mind I got it.
 
I tried HFM too, but I think it's better suited to cpu clients. I like fahspy's extended info, such as estimated daily output, it's pretty kewl!
 
I tried HFM and fahspy and i got to say i like fahmon better I am going to stick with fahmon...
 
Look at TexBill go! Going to pass 3mil within 3 days... Nice job!
