    Figured some of the old timers would appreciate this workhorse

    I've been getting nostalgic for some of my old hardware lately. I would love to have a Radeon 9500 Pro, Athlon XP 3000+, Pentium 4 3.0C, or 1.4GHz Athlon Thunderbird. Most of those go for prices that are stupidly high on ebay. But, I found a guy selling Q6600 for $9 shipped and figured I'd scoop...

    It's cold outside, better throw a big log on the fire

    WTT: 6800XT for ASUS RTX 3080 or 3090

    Update: Found one on Reddit. I have a 6800XT on the way from AMD. I'm big into Folding @ Home (team 33) and honestly the card I end up with will spend more time folding than gaming, easily, and unfortunately nvidia cards are much stronger in folding. Willing to pay MSRP difference between...

    Are we sure CPUs don't bottleneck GPUs in FAH?

    I'm watching my GTX 1080 completely consume a core of my Ryzen 5 3600, and I'm thinking, I've been seeing this same behavior for years. It seems like every GPU has always taken 100% of a full CPU core of every CPU I've owned. Has anybody benchmarked CPU speed to see if CPU speed could bottleneck...

    Somebody's serving up Coronas?

    I like mine with a lime please I heard about the availability of the COVID19 WUs and figured I'd toss a couple boxen at the problem. It's been too long since I've heard the whir of the fans spinning up other than gaming. Edit. My GPUs are idle. I guess the well of WUs is dry at the moment.

    Slow real world NVME SSD performance

    I have a Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming with an i5 and a Toshiba XG5 256GB NVME SSD. The PC is basically new, and out of the box, performance is sluggish. It seems to hang at odd times (5 seconds to open Chrome, for example), but it's erratic (at other times, Chrome loads instantly). To me...

    It’s getting cold, time to fire up the GTX1080

    Hey guys. Been a while. I loaded up the Windows FAH client and I’m getting around 500-600k PPD. Is that an optimized production level? Are there other projects I should be supporting instead? I also have the old opteron 48 core beast in the basement. Is there anything worth doing with...

    It's that time of year....

    The house was getting a little cool so I figured it would be a good time to throw a few rigs at F@H again. It won't be much, but probably enough to put me in the top 15 or so PPD wise. So, what have I missed? Who's this grandma I'm looking up at?!? That's embarrassing. What's this I hear...

    GTX 980 PPD

    I have a GTX 980 that seems to be alternating between 80,000 PPD and 275,000 PPD. Is this WU dependent? I have tried rebooting, the GPU clock seems to be consistent, it's putting out a lot of heat. So, everything seems good except for the PPD...

    how much difference does hyperthreading make?

    On sandy bridge/ivy bridge, what kind of ppd difference does HT make? Anybody done any clock for clock comparisons recently? Microcenter only has mobo combo deals with the 3570k right now, not the 3770k, so the 3570 end up being drastically cheaper.
