        I'd be completely fine if they were able to fold me out of having to do folding on my home machine!

          That's fine, I'm seriously considering jumping over to Mac with the M1 and retiring my PC for pretty much everything except for gaming.

              @rusty-vandura yeah I did see that

              I've been gaming again recently so haven't been putting out the full 1M PPD. Only reason why I ever got ahead was because I left my machine running pretty much non stop since we started this.

              I really wish one of us oppos had a RTX 3090 just so we could see what that could do.

                @gin-san My understanding is that the 3090 only kills it when it's assigned large WUs. I don't know how prevalent large WUs are or are not. I'm folding 24/7 with a 1080 ti. I might upgrade to a 2080 if there are any used ones at a good price after Christmas. Then try and get a few bucks back out of my 1080.

                  @rusty-vandura ah I didn't realize that

                  Anything in the 2000 series and higher I can't use since I only have one 8 pin power connector and I don't want to put any more upgrades into my nearly 7 year old PC.

                  The fact that my 1660 Super is able to put out 1M PPD is impressive after the CUDA updates they made for the f@h client.

                  Even if I end up with an Apple M1 system my PC will keep running.

                    @gin-san The 1660 Super is a great card; I own two of them, one each in my daily drivers. The 1080 ti is set up at the local high school where they have lots of solar panels.
