Folding on 6850?
- Thread starter munkle
- Start date
That worked but it asked me for a passkey, I just put in the same passkey used for the smp client but I have never had the gpu client ask me for a pass key?
Edit: maybe it worked, will reply back.
All modern clients ask for a passkey, along with other variables, the first time you run the client without a config file present. You can leave it blank on GPU clients. Surprised you haven't notice it before. Please report back your numbers, I have a 6870 arriving tomorrow morning.

Ok it's working, only takes up about 6% cpu with the ati modifications in the variables. But it will only use 60% load on the gpu.
You are probably going to have to do some tweaking. 60% GPU usage isn't going to give you very much PPD.
What else would I change?
I have no clue at the moment, been two years since I folded on ATI GPUs. I've never used those variables when I did. I was going to research them when my 6870 arrives tomorrow.
Maybe some of the other ATI guys can help for now.
I'm interested in them for the folding I do on MW and Collatz so keep us posted.
That isn't "folding", I do plan on running them on BOINC projects when not gaming. No worries.
Ok, I could say folding (which you knew what I referred to) or I could say: "In astroinformatics, Milkyway@Home is generating highly accurate three dimensional models of the Sagittarius stream, which provides knowledge about how the Milky Way galaxy was formed and how tidal tails are created when galaxies merge. " Or this: "Testing the Collatz Conjecture also known as 3x+1 or HOTPO" Or maybe this: "I be cruncin da maths."
Sometimes you come across as being an anal knit picker.
He is actually quite correct, since the work you're doing has absolutely nothing to do with folding. Though some people choose to use the word as a blanket term for distributed computing, that is a very improper use of it.Ok, I could say folding (which you knew what I referred to) or I could say: "In astroinformatics, Milkyway@Home is generating highly accurate three dimensional models of the Sagittarius stream, which provides knowledge about how the Milky Way galaxy was formed and how tidal tails are created when galaxies merge.

If I was that anal, I'd have to correct you for using nitpicker incorrectly. oh wait.
I was trying to set you apart from all the other nits but since you want to be only average, you win.
BTW SInce you want to start over correcting, you didn't capitalize your "O" in oh.
Really, who cares? If you want to take things this seriously, go for it.
Personally, I have a good life outside of the internet.
I donate time and equipment as you and others do because I want to, not to make my life complete. I guess your work is more important that others. Splitting hairs like this is just silly.
Moar D to ya!
You were criticizing his criticism, so I thought I would just criticize your criticism of his criticism. If you feel the need to criticize my criticism of your criticism of his criticism, then feel free to do so.Really, who cares? If you want to take things this seriously, go for it.

You keep this up and the white coats will come and take you away! LOL
I feel sooo free now! Thanks Tobit!
i got lost after the 3rd critic***** or so...
I'm so confused, now folding is using about 90% of the core, but my temps went down? before at 60% it was at 55c now it is at 47c, and I have the fan manually set at 45%, it defaulted to 77% way to loud.
Edit: oh wait I figured it out, the gpu is clocked to 300mhz, wtf? Thats with the new hotfix driver.

its because the clients not forcing 3D clocks. you are probably going to have to manually force 3D clocks while folding.
Is there a way to do that with catalyst? I tried to install ati tray tools, but it just bsod's. Before the hotfix driver it ran the 3d clocks

You might wanna use RivaTuner for that. It will likely complain about "unsupported driver" but be a guinea pig
You may also want to get rid of any ATIxxxxx.dll files within the folding working directory as well. These probably don't support any modern card using the 5xxx and higher chips, and might be part of the problem. Even with the -forcegpu ati_r700 flag I could never get my 5870 to work while these DLL files were in the F@H GPU client directory.
The client will default to using the ATI DLL files from the new Catalyst drivers instead when you remove them from the F@H client directory.
Hope that helps.
You are ALL wrong. What folding@home does is simulate folding of proteins.
So unless your computers are actually proteins you are not folding.
Now KHW is actually folding, because his body is full of proteins. It is just that his, or any of your computers are not.
God, I hate being right all the time. But I love it that you are so wrong.

Good link to the dictionary.
KWH, are you calling a Tobit an anal knit picker (sic) as in
- "of, relating to, characterized by, or being personality traits (as parsimony, meticulousness, and ill humor) considered typical of fixation at the anal stage of development <an anal disposition> <anal neatness>", which does not set him apart but is really just common to the anal stage of development?
or as in
- "of, relating to, situated near, or involving the anus <an anal fin> , which of course, is not only disgusting, but also incorrect, as nit or louse does not live in the hair of the anus, but of the scalp?
Sorry, I know this is not GenMay, but I just cannot stand the incorrect use of the English language. Mind you, English is not my mother tongue, as in language.

/me throws a rock at speedy.. get your facts right, we speakith American not English. we butchered and destroyed the english language in this country a long time ago.
I know you're joking, but I have never understood this sentiment.we butchered and destroyed the english language in this country a long time ago.
That's like saying the Anglo Saxons butchered and destroyed the Old English language when they formed what we now refer to as "English".
Or that the Scottish variety of English is also a "butchered and destroyed" version. I've never heard anybody say that.
This is America. We speak our own version of English. There's nothing wrong with that.
But I am Canadian, so I speak English!
