Nice, my 980 doesn’t seem to be even pulling numbers that good..... Still hoping to crack the 100k barrier today though!

It’s mildly OC’d... only a couple hundred MHz, and she runs pretty warm, but it constantly benchmarks at the top of it’s model class... not sure why, I guess I got a good one.

I don’t even know how to add my GPU. I’ve been running solely CPU. Some tell me the secrets?

W hat are you getting per day with the 980?  Just for reference my 780 ti is getting 375 k ppd you have got to be beating that by a wide margin.

Nice! My cooling is currently sub-par since two (don’t ask me how at the same time ) of my fans took a poo. I have a couple on order so should hopefully take care of that.

If you ran express setup, and your GPU is su pported, it should have added it automatically...

what’s your GPU? or did you not run the express setup?

I think I did the express set up. I clicked some buttons and it started working. Using this:  Radeon Pro 560X 4 GB. Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

It’s saying 490,000 per day which is clearly i nacurate since I have a total of like 80,000 points after 3 days.

Oh, yeah the Intel UHD is not supported, and I was surprised to learn (because I just looked now) that only Radeon 5000-series and up GPUs are supported... I don’t know if it’s an OpenCL driver issue or what, but it seems like they’re missing out on a lot of installed AMD GPU power by having such limited support... I mean they support Nvidia all the way back to GeForce 400-series cards.

edit: check your GPU drivers? maybe outdated drivers...?

I ntere sting, My 960M is hovering between 89K and 95K ppd, which fits with my already verified score perfectly... I wonder why your estimates are so far off reality...?

The Radeon 580x in my son’s computer works with FAH.

wait, do you have a Mac? GPU folding is not supported at all on Mac...

Yup MacBook Pro late 2018 . Didn’t really expect it to do super well at this and didn’t look at requirements but every little bit helps right

Like ly this is because your GPU is spending a lot of time waiting for a WU.   Are you folding for COVID-19 only or are you taking any WU, no specific cause selected?

Nope, working on any available units. A re you guys shutting down at night instead of letting it run 24 hours?

Yeah, taking any WU will certainly give you the best chance at being fully loaded.  M y system has been on 24 hours a day since I joined the oppo folding team a few days ago.

I’m doing any already, b ut it does take forever to start a new task. The CPU seems to always be working though.
