    I've got a few 2080ti's showing 3.9mPPD so far but most machines aren't affected yet.
    Did you update the NVIDIA drivers?
    "To get the most performance out of the new CUDA-enabled core, be sure to update your NVIDIA drivers! There’s no need to install the CUDA Toolkit."
    Well, I know what I'm doing today.

    Well, I know what I'm doing today.

    General consensus the Nvidia Studio Drivers are more stable. I'm doing a quick comparison right now. Of course, CUDA changes everything.
    Update:  studio vs gaming, no apparent difference.
    #47 we caught reddit.
    It appears that the 2060s has blossomed with CUDA

    I've converted my two folders to Linux, that should help.
    My GPU strategy is MC Open-Box + 5% Credit Card discount. Unfortunately, it appears that any new gear will be a 2021 event the way availability is going.   Core13 CUDA & Linux have moved me back into the Top200 (191) producers, but that won't last long as new clusters continue to popup.

    I managed to find/borrow some old test parts and project leftovers from around the office and put together a new office heater:

    • AMD 1700X
    • ASUS Crosshair VI Hero
    • 32 GB RAM & Intel 256Gb SSD
    • ASUS 2070
    • ASUS 2080
    • 1000W PSU
    I put it up online yesterday afternoon with the latest nvidia drivers and it's been cranking out some WUs and heating the office quite nicely. The CPU has 8 cores and 16 threads, so I created a 4 core CPU slot, leaving the rest to "manage" the GPUs.

    The 2070 runs at a toasty 84 degrees and the 2080 at a temperate 75.

    It went online around 6pm yesterday and boosted my PPD from around 2M to 3.5M. It'll be interesting to see a full 24hr total.



    Now I have to come up with a name for my new heater, any ideas?

    @MightyMayfield my stats show MM near 45M for the day!    MC45 is on a comeback trail near 10M.  @ryau adding to the MC compute livery too!  Good to see.

    #46 & 146M PPD average, it's a great comeback story.
    +8 for the Active Folders & 2 new folders.  Notable recruiting & retention.
    MM, MC45 & Pittbug
     have led the MCO recovery from a low of 85M PPD.  
    MCO is currently the #28 producer & back in the Top30.

    It's great to see more people getting back online as well as joining the fight. Just a reminder to everyone if you have any questions or issues there are more than enough of us here to help you through just about anything that comes up or can direct you to the proper people to assist. Also for our newer folder first of all Welcome to the team, if you haven't started the process to obtain your passkey like stated before there are more than enough of us that can help guide you to obtaining it and just what to do with it.

    It's great to see everyone still chopping away at this and the research we're assisting with is paying off as you can see in the articles on the folding fourm's site.

    The new FAH client is available... but: (some FAH forum comments)
    i might just wait for 7.6.23..
    [6:08 AM]
    top tip from bruce also: "This version relocates the FAHData directory. If you've got unfinished WUs being processed by *13 or earlier, it does not move them so you should probably do a FINISH before installing *.20" 

    Update: I installed 7.6.20 on a Win10 system, no problems.

    I know we'll have some, but I don't have any specifics on makes/models and counts yet. With the way things have been going, I don't think there will be many cards available unfortunately.

    Major Milestone !! MCO hit #25 Top Producer

    We'd need to wrangle ~15M PPD more to lock-in the #20 spot.
