I see parts combinations that run the gammit and some of it is from availability but other things are based on reliability. So my question to the members is, what parts work for "X" type of folding rig.
Single GPU Unit:
PPW / PPW for a given tier of points. What seems to be the best bang for the buck? What are the rock solid parts that can stand up to 24/7 use?
Multi GPU folding rig:
What type of motherboard works best? How many PCIe lanes are needed to keep points up? How many cores are needed to keep folding stable? How important is memory? What cases seem to provide the best room for multiple cards without needing their own parking space? Power supplies and how does rating effect performance?
Folding farms:
Airflow, board designs, power consumption, underclocking, remote clients
I know things change all the time, but learning from the members what limitations they found and tips would be nice. I appreciate the help I've received so far on setting up my GPUs and setting advanced client settings. (I remember these being called flags)
I hope to also contribute as I find limits and what works.
