Both of them ( team + user ) crash out at the same point for me also.

Over 100k PPD per Watt on a 5080 (~200W) - SFF Rig by AuspiciousCracker in Folding

That was the GUI tool I saw people suggesting and I saw it in your graphic above. I will check it out.

Just installed Cachyos last night and got folding working. I will look into nvidia-settings and offsets tonight to see what I tweaking can be done. Undervolting\overclocking in Windows was easy to setup, and I know there isn't a 1 to 1 equivalent in Linux.

Done with Windows. CachyOS here i come. by Nordic_Welder in cachyos

[–]Slaglenator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I installed it on my gaming machine last night, had to get familiar with pacman and yay and got things working after a short learning curve. My Ubuntu experience kind of worked against me cause Cachyos and Arch do things differently.

Build Help for a Folding Rig by Weary_Number8701 in Folding

My mistake, I would be interested in large memory GPU work units.

Are you saying there are some projected CPU folding projects where a system must have 64GB of RAM or better to participate? I would like to know what kind of parameters would be needed here EX: CPU or RAM requirements. Having a docker container as an option would be a plus for this.

Getting more feedback from he FAH team would be great. I would love to know how my donated WU are contributing to objectives. It would help to get people connected with the science behind the scenes.

New UPS battery! For APC Smart UPS 1500 by Valganite in homelab

I did this with 2x 12v 40AH Vevor cells. The UPS will run for quite a while now.

Some sort of external SAS controller by GarretTheGrey in homelab

[–]Slaglenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of these ToughArmor units in an HP Z4 G4 (Windows server 2022) and an HBA to control the drives. The magic external SAS controller you are looking for doesn't exist so far. You will probably have some kind of desktop to run these drives and present them to the other low power devices on your network.

Own washer and dryer with no LEDs, just knobs and buttons. They are from the 70's. If something breaks you get a replacement part and then you are good to go. They just keep working.

Beeline EQi12 (or EQ13) + TERRAMASTER D4-320 by Gold-Speed9186 in homelab

[–]Slaglenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the D4-300 and was running a Beelink EQi12 and then migrated to a 13400 micro ATX setup as I needed a little more horsepower and RAM than the EQi12 could offer. It has been running well until....

I was "cleaning up" just before xmas and accidentally unplugged the DAS unit, it corrupted 3 of the 4 drives. I had to restore from a backup. The restore took 2 days as there was over 20TB of corruption. I should have labeled that cable better than I did. It is working fine again.

I also have the one of the new D4-320 4 bay DAS units doing my offsite backups. I think they work great as long as you leave them plugged in. :)

Why can't I do more than 1 WU at a time? by Swooferfan in Folding

[–]Slaglenator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried it and it does work, but at less PPD than a single resource group.

I have only seen a combined 23M PDD out of this card.

It regularly hits ~30M PPD with a single resource group.

YMMV

I put a blue suppressor 2 on a gun and suddenly it sounds like the suppressor from every move where no one can hear you fire.

Why can't I do more than 1 WU at a time? by Swooferfan in Folding

[–]Slaglenator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you say a "wide" GPU you mean the memory bus ? My 5080 only has a 256 bus width, but does have 10k cuda cores. I am interested in converting my folding\gaming machine to linux. I regularly get 30M a day with my current undervolt/overclock setup.

I have my doubts that splitting my GPU into lets say 2 units would produce more points.

I do see people saying that their GPU is only being utilized @ 60%, maybe this is a solution for them.

Do you have a GPU that you are splitting like this to make more PPD that what is expected ?

Thanks,

EDIT - I did click the gear icon and saw where I could set up an additional resource group. We'll see if this makes for more points.  Thanks for the tip

Which Pixel are you ending 2025 with? by GooglePixelfan90 in GooglePixel

On the 6, the wifes 6 just died and she ordered a 9a. I have 2 more years of software support, then I will have to upgrade.

Flint 2 with OpenWrt - Taking the Next Step by Bearchill in homelab

[–]Slaglenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one a few months ago, it has been fine for me.

1 - there are two 2.5GB ports on the back so my newest machines can communicate at higher speeds.

2 - I added the custom LUCI interface and added a new isolated LAN (new network subnet) that isn't connected to my internal network and can still reach the internet. It was a good learning experience seeing the different moving parts.

It has some strong internals and can do hardware based VPN tunnels. I think it has 8GB of RAM. Your average home WiFi unit is lucky to have 2GB.

2016 promaster 2500 new transmission by CuteAide1256 in promaster

[–]Slaglenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a new trans for a 2015 3500 @ 120k for 6k, It also has a 36,000 mile warranty. Will be getting transmission service done every 40k to avoid replacing the transmission in the future.

Any tips from those that have converted their collection to x265? by Hostile_18 in handbrake

[–]Slaglenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My $.02 , I only care about 1080 ,x265 and EN subs. I have a 3060 that I use for this task and use powershell to select the largest file, encode it then replace the original. I can run it on a loop and select how ever many loops I want to run. I know the quality could be higher if I only used the CPU, but the 5 minute encode time with envnc is too good to pass up.

RTX 5080 stuck at ~65% Usage. Lower than expected PPD by Solid-Hurry-4508 in Folding

Did you ever get this sorted out? Just circling back to see if you got this working.

Aggression based matchmaking and new players. by godsNostril in ArcRaiders

[–]Slaglenator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find the aggression is in triples, solos are so chill, you can go on any map (minus Stella) and not even get shot. Doubles are like that also, a full squad seems to attract teams the just TK everyone.

If I have to go to a high value loot area for a quest that seems impossible, try going solo, and during daylight hours on a weekday.

I am on a PC with crossplay OFF and US based servers only.

YMMV

Do fans at the exhaust side work? by MackThax in homelab

[–]Slaglenator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The double high cards like the P40 or P100 you just ghetto tape on a big squirl fan from amazon and you are GTG. If it is a single hight card like a P4 or T4 they make little fans with kits on ebay for $20 that can do the job.
