    Anandtech vs Tom's Hardware Folding@Home Coronavirus Race thread

    I had a WU stuck at 99%, so I decided to restart the client, which probably crashed my setup. Unfortunately for me that rig's in a lab, and I don't have any physical access to it due to this lockdown shebang :/

    How How'd you guys keep getting GPU WUs? My GPU has been idle for the longest time :/ The CPUs on the other hand are happily cranking away, but their return is honestly rather meh.

    I think one of my recent WUs also encountered this error, and my setup is nowhere near your 128 threads. Those scores though, good lord!

    Anyone having issues with getting work units? Other than a few WUs, I've not been able to get anything for the last 12 hours :/

    Jumping in with a 36 core server and a Titan XP. Do I have to specify any work unit types in control?

    What controls Turbo Core in Xeons?

    My BIOS shell doesn't have the bcfg command for some reason. I should probably try again with another shell, although I'm tempted to put it back to stock again though. I'm fine with 8 cores running, and can happily switch to 18 when I need the extra cores. Besides, my 2 chips don't seem to be...

    Hmmm, I only see one file system in my shell (fs0:), the rest are all blocks. Does that happen to you as well?

    Unfortunately, I think I might be stuck on an MBR partition. It's not gonna work right?

    @Dufus @The Stilt @Welsper @randir @RamRock @fromax Finally got this darn thing to work, thanks to you lot :D For me, I had to manually to manually change the mCode headers in my BIOS using HxD. For some reason, only one header showed up in UBU after editing, but apparently that's not a...

    What controls Turbo Core in Xeons?

    Nope, don't think it's gonna have an effect on my end. Anyway, this is a SuperMicro board, so that ASUS flashback feature is not available to me.

    What controls Turbo Core in Xeons?

    @Dufus @Welsper Made some progress. I was able to get my setup to POST with the modified BIOS, and your EFI scripts. Both are free from error messages at the time of installation. The last time I tried, the system wouldn't even POST. I addressed this by only deleting the Haswell mCodes...

    I don't need another system...I don't need another system...I don't need another system...

    I don't know about the 980s man. Apart from the fact that shipping ain't free, $225 does seem a little steep for GPUs that have been crunching non-stop. There's also the fact that a new 6GB 1060 is roughly around the same price, offering similar performance while costing less power.
