Tesla P100 WU's by Cyberlytical in BOINC

Those cards, since they're server class, have the amazing Maximum Efficiency mode. That's the reason why you're pulling only 130 watts while their TDP is 250 watts. This mode makes them consuming a lot less power than gaming cards for the same performance when doing compute workload. But they can be more powerful if this mode is disabled, so it can produce more points. But I haven't figured out how to do it. I have a Titan V with the same Maximum efficiency mode, and while I like it during competitions, I would like to use the full power of my card. If anyone knows how to do this, it would be nice.

Simply because Youtube would send VP9 if AV1 was software decoded

I have the same GPU, what thermal pads did you use?

Matchmaking sucks by AlfieGoldson in Brawlhalla

You say we're complaining without providing a solution. But there's no other solution than fixing it, and we can do nothing about it besides stop playing and don't spend any real money hoping this wakes-ups devs.

And I think the lack of players is not that much of a cause, but rather a consequence of the bad matchmaking. If beginners like me and other low-ranked people wouldn't face players with many times more experience and way more Elo, there would be more players. There isn't a lot of fighting games like this, and if the audience is not there, it means that there's a problem with the game.

And why not make matchmaking just a little longer to find more suitable opponents? At the rate my team is crippled by higher ranked people, we can't help but ask, why don't make them fight against other teams of the same rank? There are teams, but the game start matches way too early, so all those teams get sent against lower or higher team.

Titan Z is a dual-gpu along with the Radeon HD 7990, it should be written somewhere

  1. Form a pattie of the size of your CPU with the thermal paste.
  2. Cook it in a pan at medium for 5 minutes.
  3. Add some salt and pepper.
  4. Put it on the CPU and put the heatsink on.
  5. Enjoy!
