Run on team 198. ;)

I had a failed NVME drive on a dual EPYC setup once. Ended up using a USB thumb drive running a live Linux distro for longer than I care to admit off it. Everything worked fine until it rebooted or lost power 😂

With that much RAM you could run most things in a RAM drive so it doesn't add wear to the flash drives.

Just means it's not marketed towards consumers. Doesn't mean consumers can't obtain and use them.

I also forgot to mention when selecting the project to make sure you UNCHECK any other projects so only ESP is selected. I think by default it selects one of the projects for you and its not ESP. Might be one of the sieve projects.

Joining the team. Once you have all this setup. You'll need to join the team on Primegrid. Go back to "Your account" on the primegrid web site. On the right side you'll see team information. Click find team, then type "team anandtech" and look for the team and click join.

I started a thread showing how to join the Primegrid Challenge series. https://forums.thefpsreview.com/threads/joining-primegrid.19250/ So we don't clutter this F@H thread with BOINC talk. Sorry about that.

A few of us on the team buy hardware specifically for BOINC/Distributed Computing and have decent sized farms that can do a tremendous amount of computing. Most of the hardware comes from eBay. Buying decommissioned enterprise hardware for relatively cheap. Not sure if you're wanting to get...

I sure hope so. That's the only thing I care about.

Yeah, its just one plug pull away from being dead.

Any updates on this?

I find BOINC more fun. We have multiple competitions during the year that we compete in. From the Primegrid Challenge Series which one is set to start in a few hours. A competition the team has dominated in the past few years winning something around 30 challenges consecutively and counting...

Well I'm currently not running F@H. Haven't decided if I'm going to this month or not. I do run BOINC nearly 24/7 year around with a slow down during the hot months. Hardware is mostly EPYC setups with a bunch of 30-series GPUs. Still got a bunch of Nvidia P100s, but I uninstalled them a...

Welcome to the team.

Was it just me or did it seem like a lot of companies don't know what "CES" means or at least they don't know the meaning of the "C" in "CES."

I'm just waiting on the announcement that you'll need cryogenic GPU cables for the next generation of Nvidia GPUs.

No dual 3D Cache, no care

I mean technically it is, but a case fan isn't going to change much either way. If you could cryo-cool the connectors then it would be fine. It would lower the resistance to a point where it wouldn't melt anymore. but again, a case fan isn't getting those kind of temps haha

I remember back in the good ole days. Silicon lottery was a thing. Getting the best CPU that can overclock. Now it's a connector lottery. Getting a connector built within' the right tolerances that doesn't melt.

I almost never go to the other forum anymore. I always just come here because I know it works and if it's not working I know I can reach @David_Schroth and ask why he broke it.
