…me folding with a 3070 ti on a non-k 2600 i5 and hitting the estimated ~4.5-5M ppd that the LAR systems site predicts for windows…

I don’t think the system specs matter as much as folks think they do. I spun this rig up from old parts i had laying around and it’s chugging fine.

After this race I’ll pop my 4070 super in this like 15 year old rig and i bet I’ll get the same ppd I’m getting in its current system, a 10700k on a z490 board w/32GB DDR4.
We have done back to back testing. Every little bit helps. When seconds per frame improvement can add up to millions of PPD. You should see a boost from going to the faster processor, but with your card being older it might not be as noticeable do to lower number of checkpoints. We did our testing with 4070ti/4070 super.
Post magically merged:

Be that as it may, until my current rigs kick the bucket, I'll fold with what I have :) I currently have 16 PC's in my house, 9 in use so I don't have any more room for more :)
this pains me, lol

I'm going to be on the road tomorrow. Would someone volunteer to note or post the 1 PM (EST) team totals so that I can post them in my spreadsheet when I get back?
 
I tabbed over to this just in time to see the highest credit WU I've seen for myself. I've had quite a few in the 4-5 hour range but those were usually like 1.5M points. Holy crap! lol

Thats pretty damn good, I've had quite a few of lately, one is currently on a 2080 super also. What are your clocks at for your 2080?

I run everything at “stock” settings, I’d rather not risk wasting time on receiving failed WUs.
I did a vcurve at 1900mhz with 1.025v with both my 2070 and 2080 , the 2080 never drops below 1950 mhz and the 2070 will do 2000mhz on most wu's. I played with the curves after I noticed the cards at stock voltage would creep down to 1800mhz or slightly lower.

I am sick of being behind you... I am piecing together a Frankenstein's monster computer right now. It will have an FX-8350 feeding an 6700 XT and an M4000 Quadro 8GB. Hopefully I can get it up and running.
:rofl: go get em tiger lol I remember when I tried folding on that cpu back in the day before gpu folding was a thing. -10 degrees outside and 110 in my bedroom lol
 
I checked for updates on 4 computers this morning and then hit the pause for a week setting, I've lost WU a couple times in the past when windows updated and restarted itself. 2 towers sitting in the basement with the heating vents closed so they should stay pretty cool for the week considering the warmest day will be about 13 degrees F.
I should have done that to my fleet before the competition started. I haven't updated anything since I got the fleet underway last fall. Oh well, not stopping now :comp:

I've had wu crash when fine tuning gpu clocks but I usually catch it and save it but microsoft comes along and decides to restart my pc and bam, failed wu so that's why I remembered to pause updates for a week lol.
 
Just a few more days guys. We just gotta keep pouring on the heat for a few more days.
 
I added a 2060 to the mix for the lulz, wasn’t gonna use it due to the ppd per kwh output not seeming worth it, but what the heck hehehe ;)
 
what are you getting with a 2060? I thought the same thing looking at the lars site for my 2070 and 2080 but I figured it's only for a week but it turns out I'm well above what they show for ppd on those 2 cards.
