JBug55 said: I recently added a new GPU to the mix (added a GTX-1660 Super to the GTX 1650 I already had) and was pleasantly surprised by the results after just a few days. I joined the ranks of over 1m ppd and Top 20 Producers. I also learned that Linux really appears to be more efficient than Windows for this application ( no, I'm neither a Windows nor Linux fan-boy or basher). With a small sample size, I am getting more ppd by about 15% - 20% with Linux.

I have to admit I did only buy the TI because it was an open box deal (my daughter loves the LED lights on it to LOL). What flavor of Linux are you using just out of curiosity? It has been seen by a number of people that Linux does manage to earn you more points.
ryau said: This makes me want to set up a linux box now... although I haven't touched linux in maybe 20 years, so I'm sure a lot has changed. It'd be cheaper in the short term to throw another 2070S in my machine, since it performs pretty well already.
JBug55 said: I'm running Mint (19.2 cinnamon I think). I chose it as an older version that still supported Python 2. Originally as a "no muss no fuss" entry point, if Linux didn't work out, I wouldn't have a lot of time invested. It has a familiar look and feel to me as a mostly Windows person, and has been rock solid so far.

JADO said: Anyone else having issues getting decent WU's. Seems like these WU's should be going to slower CPU devices. Is is FAH servers causing my problem or is there something I can do to get better utilization of my hardware?
