Re: Please add NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 to the supported GPU list

In Windows, GPU-Z can tell us the Device ID. That will give them enough data to enter it in the server. Once in the server you can .update your copy

Re: Software Monthly Update

You say 'programmers/developers' as if there was more than one. There is AFAIK, only one. Mr Coffland does wonderful, but if you add tasks, he will get less done.

Re: testing the same work unit on different configurations to see how fast it will run

Folding@Home itself never runs the same Work Unit to completion more than once.

FAHBench is the official benchmark for F@H.

Ok you have a year old AMD 7520U cpu.
It appears no one has entered the integrated gpu in the server database.

You can help by running gpuz and posting your device id, usually formatted as four 4 digit numbers.

Re: Point inflation - Longevity Credit

My first GPU had 16 shaders, of course it did less work than a modern GPU with thousands. My Semperon did less work as well. This is not point inflation, this is more capable hardware doing better science.

Re: Actual credit?

Currently, you, the client, start each interaction with the server. 'I would like a new Work Unit' I have a WU to return' And this is safest for you, no unexpected conversations. Getting a result when the server felt like it, would be a server initiated transfer. Much less secure, and having written...

Re: No bonus

I know of at least 2 rules for bonuses:
I do not suspect you of having less than 10 Work Units on this PC

I suspect you have less than 80% of Work Units completed successfully
