Cool GTX

New to folding here.. Started a little bit ago.. Let it run 24x7 on my 1080 FTW.   Wish I could get a few more hertz outa it but doesn't seem stable above +100 to the core.  
Either way, happy to join it, just hit 8Mil last night! 

Welcome to the Team
 
I see 9 Million  http://folding.stanford.edu/stats/donor/1859553
 
Your FTW is factory OC, so no surprises about lower additional OC.  My EVGA 1080 FE fold well around +200, have lower factory MHz.
 
I can OC my cards higher, but as you probably noticed, on occasion the WU will fail -- even after Days of good work ---- so Folding is not tolerant or Any error
 
You should also post in Milestone thread

Thanks! I'll do that!   Yea apparently it did hit 9M, maybe I'll hit 10M by tonight.  I'm pretty impressed with the 1080 and how well it can fold.  It literally has been folding 24x7 since 12-13-16. I need to read up and see if I can add my media server as well except it doesn't have a GPU just to quad core cpu on Ubuntu server.    

Welcome NxtGenCowboy, great points with your 1080.


You could Crunch nicely with the server.

Come and take a look.

Thanks!  I'll look into crunching now.. They are older CPUs but I'd be more than happy to add 2 E5506s to the mix.   

What I find "nice" or "enjoyable" about Crunching Is there is no point loss if you decide to pause the WU for what ever reason, there is still an expiration date that it needs to be turned in by though. (that's unless your only in it for the points) I also like the fact that when you are in a challenge for the Team and the challenge comes to an end. They prefer you abort the WUs and not let them time out if you are not wanting to finish them. Unlike Folding where even mentioning "dumping" a WU will get you posted on a wanted sign.
I also found out there are also GPU driven Crunching projects too, some with the right setting you can do 2 @ a time on one GPU. I went to the Crunching side seeing that they needed help in a challenge- GPU- been hooked ever since (Bcavnaugh warned me it would happen and it did) Great group of folks on the Crunching side as well as the Folding side that will help whenever help is needed!!
I too have older CPUs (rigs built for folding) but they do their job and assist the team...............never know the WUs you complete might just help the team bump up 1 more notch in the Challenge!!! I Fold and then swap over for Crunching challenges now, then back to Folding since Folding has a project I like to devote my GPU time to.   
 
TLDR; Check Crunching out it's pretty cool

Welcome Nixxon94, Nice GPU you have there.
 
Any Questions, ask away.

Thank you very much HK-Steve! I have actually been following your ultimate crunching computer build even before registering on this forum!

Cool, Not finished yet, but upgraded a lots of other computers here.
2017 the Ultimate cruncher thread will be updated with a build..
 
Cheers

Welcome to Team EVGA rub elbows with our members you will not be disappointed, help is just a post away if ever in need.

Welcome banshee4711,
Be sure you are not using the latest driver, lower points than 272.90 driver.

Welcome banshee4711 
HK-Steve really meant Driver 372.90 or 373.06 any after 373.06 have issues on the Pascal and Maxwell Graphics Cards.
 

Thanks bcavnaugh, my bad.. 372.90 is correct....

hello everyone I'm not new to folding but i have been gone awhile like 3-4yrs ,i see things have changed , and i can only fold when i can cause now i pay my own lights now as b4 it was included in my rent lol so i didn't matter then lol,
any who lol i remember it bk in the day folding on the cpu was ok but really didn't do much , but then the gpus is where it was at ,so early this morning i launched it again to check it out and i see that I'm folding with both CPU and GPU ,should i disable the CPU and go with the GPU , if so how would i go about Disabling the CPU
oh and my system Spec are in my Sig at the bottom and my Folding stats are here
and i broke the 1mill mark today lol

Disabling CPU,
open the Advanced Control, right click mouse on the FAH icon in your notification task bar (right next to the clock, bottom right hand corner)
Once open, click on Configure,
click on Slots tab,
click on cpu, then remove at the bottom of the window.
click Save.
 
You are then good to go with just GPU Folding..
 

Hi I'm Kevin.  I'm new to folding on evga (and Stanford) but have been folding for IBMs world community grid forever now.  I am a sliver under 100 million points right now though.  Yay pascal GPUs.

Welcome to EVGA Forums & Team EVGA Folding - Kevincav
 

Hi all. I have recently discovered about this folding community and am excited to become a part of it. I have been folding for about 2 weeks now but am struggling getting my points to show on evga my folding page. It must be the name mismatch thing so I looked into changing the name on evga profile but no luck. Could someone please point me where and how can I change it on evga profile? Or alternatively folding app (ideally without losing points)? Thank you!
 

Hi ipkha,
I have been looking through stickies but I must be blind as I could not find the answer I am looking for. I have a passkey already entered into Stanford client. Do I also need to enter that somewhere in evga profile? I am sure my evga profile name does not match Stanford client. So back to the original question how do I change my evga profile name? It does not look like it can be changed. Or am I looking at the wrong place?
