Quick question: Will the TZC 2016 page's group stat's page continue to be updated so we can track how close we get to the 5 billion points mark for November?

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

Actually, I am pulling those stats from EOC not drougnor.  They only update when EOC updates and are limited based on what is available from EOC.

Also of note: here we sit at 3 billion on November 14th!   Unfortunately, it seems are production fell off much harder than I was expecting when the contest ended this past weekend.  We need to maintain slightly above our current production to make 6 billion by the end of the month, however, when the bucks folders begin dropping off 6 billion may be out of reach this go round...

Did not catch that, my above reference was for the Month of the TZC but my Yearly cost runs about $4200.00 a year my self.
My High over the last 12 months was $694.00 and my low was $312.00


Holy crap man, turn off the tanning bed(s)!

Unfortunately I had to stop folding 16 hours a day. I have to wait to see what November's electric bill is going to be... my wife isn't an idiot, and knows my folding costs money. I don't want to give her a heart attack while she's pregnant.

No pressure and please continue to fold within your means.  Life responsibilities always come first.

This error looks like a NVidia driver issue, I don't know if you have one of the 375.xx drivers installed which are not good for folding, see:
- NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready Driver 375.63 WHQL Do Not Use For Folding @ Home
- Core 21 (OpenMM GPU) issues with new Windows NVIDIA drivers
 
It's best to install NVidia driver 373.06 (or older) and when you're already using an older driver, maybe re-install this driver.


What a BR for this!

Re: 2016 Time Zone Challenge 2016/11/14 16:20:11 (permalink)
i'll be interested to see what my power bill is going to be.  Been cool enough for me to leave my computer on 24/7 and still fold/crunch when i'm not doing anything. I think my high this summer was 150 in july but I have a small house and most of that was from the AC not my computer.  I rarely leave my computer on when i'm not actually using it so I dont expect my power bill to be near any of the serious folders here.  My plex server crunches when its not encoding movies so that is the only comptuer that has stayed on 24/7 till now.

I've never seen my power bill eclipse $150 or so. Of course I only have 2 cards to power. I did get a sub $100 bill after pausing golding for a few weeks in prep for challenge.

As you 6 billion goal. I'm afraid the primegrid event coming up will be sapping the folding numbers.

No about the driver issue, I did not except an answer only a note to my brain.
But yes one way for DutchForce to get a BR for taking such good care of us during the TZC.

Hmmm  Did I miss Something? I thought we were aiming for 6 billion? Or am I getting confused with the TZC target?

I think at this point we're just seeing how high a point total we can accumulate for the month.  Whatever it is, it will be a new record for our team!

Well, at the rate that GPUs are increasing in raw power and efficiency, I'm sure we'll soon be having Billion Point plus targets for folding contests.  Man, we've come a long way since my first Chimp Challenge in 2010, when it was a flat sprint to a whopping 20 Million.

Amen to that - I just remember running 2 GTX 8800 or 9800 + cards folding 24/7 and my computer room was unbearable due to the heat - AND getting so few ppd relative to today's ppd. It is amazing! My power bill has never been an issue with my wife. I have never measured it, but if she is good with it - it can't be much
BTW - All of my cards are still running, some are not folding.

Bummer asus. What happened to the 780ti (I am running 2 of them 24/7)??
I have a pair of 780s I ran full tilt until one of the fans on the card literally came off

jayztwocents did a video on them. i personally think they look good but may be hard to make work in all cases, due to the added length.
