any1 knows why i get this kind of error

3:36:30:ERROR:WU02:FS00:Exception: Could not get an assignment
23:40:23:WARNING:WU02:FS00:Failed to get assignment from '171.66.104.200:8080': Failed to connect to 171.66.104.200:8080: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

Check your internet connection - evidently your computer failed to get the assignment from Stanford.

evrything works well , the gpu's... but i can see i got a new ID in work queue from CPU, i just pause my CPU and the error stoped to.... strange, very strange

interesting. - at least its fixed now though

The investor ipo is off putting IMO. It is just way too many coins given out for the amount of btc. I know there is no way to fix it now, but it is a big issue for me. Why not change the halfing to every year and increase the amount of coins distributed the first couple years. Currently at around 950000 points a day, it will take me nine months to get 10,000 coins, with this decreasing as the diff rises.  I agree that initial investors should be able to reap some reward, but that is ridiculous. It was handled poorly and is the elephant in the room for this coin.

This may be off putting to you but what would be more off putting would be if the devs would have promised the initial investors an amount when they invested and then changed the agreement closer to launch after they had the investors BTC for the development stage. I think how it was handled is the correct way, even if it suits you and I both poorly. It was a great investment for those individuals, but wasn't it open to the public?

Also keep in mind the value of the IPO BTC, at least double what it's worth now, if the IPO was six months ago.  ROI isn't quite so huge as it seems, if you take that into consideration.  Also, just imagine the opportunity cost of having your BTC tied up in a project that took six months to get off the ground.  Lots of great crypto investment opportunities have risen (and fallen) in that time period.

It really means something to me to participate in such a GOOD endeavor.

To the miners:
Tell me if you have any problem with my pool so that I can improve it.
The starting difficulty of the VARDIFF if '1024'.
You you think it is too low for most sha256 mining equipment I can make it higher.

Thanks for the miner that joined with some serious hashing power

Please let me know if you have any problem with my pool.

I will try to please you as soon as possible!

There is only one miner in this pool.
Please join so that the hashing power is shared between pools.

We need more miners on this pool.

Please let me know if there is something I can do to improve the pool.

How many Curecoins could someone expect to get off mining with, say a 7950?

We did some calculations earlier in IRC, I'll repeat them here.

If the team makes, say, 230M PPD tomorrow, and your 7950 gets 95K PPD, then you would get 0.04% of the 7488 CUR payout, which would be around 3 CUR. At an exchange price of 0.002, that's around $2.70.

Awesome. Thanks for the response! I had seen the project before but wasn't sure how it all worked and that made me hesitant to join it. Reading up on it more, though, I think it is a good idea.

Welcome - I'm mining with a 7950 too so thanks for the math. I'm currently running my 7950 at around 110k PPD but I have $2.16 in electricity costs/day. Still I was doing folding@home before this for free so might as well continue .

My electric is $1.20 or so per day so that means this should be a profitable project for me.

My rig have 5 GPU 280x. But when i run FAH, GPU1 running at 0% and stuck in that. Do you know how to fix it? Thanks.

First give it some time to update. Second my first 2 concerns you have 5 280x are your OS and bottlenecking.


To run the above without CPU bottlenecking you need at least a 6 core CPU. That and you need a Windows based OS, FAH isn't supported with AMD on Linux. Are all your other GPUs running and if so at what rate.

Can anyone here confirm lower power usage and heat with F@H as well? I was just reading through the docs. If anyone has like a 7950/7970 that they can compare it to (Scrypt vs F@H) that'd be awesome.

Over at http://curecoinfolding.com/ I did one for a Sapphire Toxic 280x, which is very similar to a 7970. Currently, my rigs run cooler when protein folding, with lower power consumption. I'll benchmark a 7950 and 7970 for you tomorrow.

That's an awesome review. I'm looking forward to the one tomorrow! FWIW, I have a 7950 (just threw 7970 in there because I figured they'd be somewhat similar). I'm mostly interested in the Scrypt vs F@H:

Power usage
Temperatures
Fan speed at that temp

With the temps being around the same ambient.

I really need to get a Kill-a-Watt, XD.

Devs, is it possible to fork the f@h software and make it more GPU efficient so we can really get our protein on?

Did we just decimate the whole world in folding proteins?
Good job everyone, this is newsworthy stuff!!
