Pretty neat, 4x 3080 Ti alone used unit will cost RM 10K already and does 24 - 28 PPD range.
That is incredible power efficient on a RTX 4090 (450W) vs 4x RTX 3080 Ti (4x350W), and does the same range of PPD.
Besides that, it seems like the great new is -> a used RTX 3080 Ti has down to RM2500-ish.

That's how I calculated 4x 3080 Ti for 10K.
By the way, your recent 10M PPD is made up from a couple of RTX 3080 Ti?

No la, was trying out single RTX 3080 Ti.
Got other cards running too, like RX 6600 XT.
Excellent hardware you have there.

RX 6600 XT is soooooooooooo much better than 6900 XT.
I'm disappointed 6900 XT can't get much better PPD even though it's a really strong gaming card.
What do you observed so far? What are the PPD for both card?

6600 XT I get anywhere from 1.3mil to 1.8mil PPD.
I see reports of 6900 XT gettting 2.5mil at
https://folding.lar.systems/gpu_ppd/brands/...deon_rx_6900_xt I couldn't believe it until I tried it. That's why disappointing, since the 6900 XT is a much stronger card by many levels.
Like that RX 6600 XT are really better on PPD/power, 2.5M PPD on a 300W card is a bit disappointing.
Maybe can try out different driver, or fold different types of work unit, since the PPD varies significantly on different work unit.

Check out my latest PPD update!
Solo RTX 4090, just started on Sunday.
Definitely insane, up to 4.4M points between a 3 hours update interval, 16.2M points generated on Day 1 on a single card!
Is the card run on any power limit setting? Looking forward for a higher PPD.

25M PPD 360W, some WU is about 12mil 240W.
16.2M probably because it folding not on reset time.
25,000,000 for 360W is insane @ 69,444 per watt! ZOMG
69444 points per watt! Unbeatable efficiency, best efficiency card so far.
When the card is folding, it doesn't run on 100% load and 450W?
How about the RTX 3080 Ti efficiency?

360W as mentioned on post. Load is not 100%, I think is software limitation.
The GPU at 360W with all that chunk of heatsink, just hovers around 70c range+/- without fan screaming.
I've been folding for SO many years, this is the first time I'm like WU finish so fast ah? Oh started new one ah? OK it'll be finishing soon anyway.
RTX 3080 Ti just runs hot and some 6mil ish PPD only.
Insane really.
Not even looking at RTX 4080 now, considering it has below 10K CUDA cores and this one has some 16K+.
Feels like it is still packing a lot of potential. I guess for a P18601 work unit, it does not even need an hour to finish, really fast.
About the RTX 3080 Ti, it does folding at it's full power of 350W?

If I go time I willl try. 3080 Ti sitting in box now.
I tell you this RTX 4090 is so good I feel like buying one.
Super value for PPD.
Yes, gogogo, get one and enjoy as a top PPD producer. It is undoubtedly the best PPD/Watt and relatively high PPD/RM card.
Sigh, I couldn't afford one yet.

Project 18601, 30s TPF, 25M PPD, 360W, 60-70°C, I'm impressed, super nice.

IKR!?!?!?
30s TPF, if you're a folding veteran you would certainly appreciate this considering we've never seen TPF that's less than 60 seconds, not that I could remember.
And doing all this in just sub 70c and below 400w - WHAT!?!?!
Yes, hardly see TPF less than a minute. The feeling is just nice when looking at the progress bar updated by 1% within a minute.

A member from other team has reported that his RTX 4080 is running at around 19M PPD on a P18601 work unit.
The image is too large.
