Today I switched my ASUS 2060 6GB to an EVGA 3060 12GB, mostly for the VRAM.
The EVGA one is smaller in size, but heavier, the heatsink is a larger part of the whole package. What is great is that in the 3060 I can reduce the power ceiling of the GPU to 100W in nvidia-smi, I could only go as low as 130W in the 2060. What is not great is that nvtop is clearly showing that my GPU is now being bottlenecked by my old CPU. Probably this is the reason why I am only seeing a difference of a few percent in runtimes in O3AS.

I have a Gigabyte 1660ti listed on local FB marketplace:

Also have a Gigabyte 1080ti I bought in December that I MIGHT replace later this month. N108TGAMINGOC-11GD

How much WUs simultaneously are you running on 4060? Asking for my newest config (work).

all my 4060s are running x2 Performance Level 3 with temps hovering 60-65C.
Edit: Also, all machines with Nvidia gpus have been migrated to Ubuntu 24.04

I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

Thanks, as work 4060 does ~8min job on Asteroids@home at ~50°C.
While on Einstein@home on BRPs it does around ~11min jobs at ~55°C & ASGW job for around ~50min.
What are your ASGW times for dual processing?

03AS tasks run around 4600 seconds at X2 per card on my 4060s.
