i always believed that fan speed is an automatical option, and it icreases if needed without manual action .

It should. I'm just over cautious and manually set fan to high rpm so it stays as cool as possible.

I've been in the habit of limiting the power drawn & I notice barely any effect on run times. These are Linux commands which will save 10% of power on an RTX2080ti

Code: Select all

sudo nvidia-smi -pm 1
sudo nvidia-smi -pl 225
Sorry I don't know Window equivalent

I spent hours trying every set of 2080Ti settings on the web. The ones are for my card and others cards may like other ones more who knows.

I have had faster but then occasionally I see Compute Failures so backed off slightly until I was getting 100% passes.

For the 1080 I am not sure as I do not have one.

Yes indeed, very many very brave souls in underground movements across Europe in WW2.

Closer to home (for me as I born in Orkney) was the Shetland Bus which smuggled brave men and supplies on fishing boats across the North Sea to / from Occupied Norway.

Thank you for your continued support of TSBT and, yes of course, several of us support other teams at other times

The London Sinfonietta recording was a best-seller in the UK in the 1990s. I bought it then & listen to it often. I've not kept count but I doubt I can beat 500 times!
It's a beautiful piece of music Gregg. But very very very sad. Obviously I'm not able to understand the words but the grief & mourning in the music & singing is palpable.

There's a long time left until the end of FB 2020 but 3rd or 4th would be great. The BOINC Pentathlon sponsored by SETI.Germany starts in a week or so. There will be projects we will hit hard over a 2 week period, plus bunker time. Join us if you want to. It's a lot of fun, a lot of banter.

Do you mean how to make the signature with badge graphic automatically post? If so, go to the User Control panel under the Board Preferences, Edit posting defaults...
this link should get you there...https://tsbt.co.uk/forum/ucp.php?i=ucp_prefs&mode=post

and select Yes on the Attach my signature by default: option.

BTW, have you crunched Amicable Numbers before? That's currently one of our priorities. It's one of the Pentathlon projects. If you feel like running it, I suggest you change the project preferences to only run Nvidia and AMD GPU. CPU WUs are very long. You can increase performance by increasing the number of GPU Kernels in the preferences. 20 is safe for a GTX 1080. You could go up to 21 on a 2080
