I’m in - just got it set up and running. Dedicated my 1070Ti to it when I’m not using it - not worried about shortening the life, since I plan on upgrading in a few months anyhow, and I really only use it to play World of Tanks these days.
Holy crap it seems to be fast. The spreadsheet linked earlier said 800 points per day if I was reading it right, but the client is estimating 85,000 points per day and is still increasing. Hope it helps :) ETA: Well over 100k estimated now, and still increasing quickly. |

I am not 100% sure.. but after I added this to the config today, My points jumped significantly. And acquired the CV-19 work units. Could be a coincidence. Figure I would pass that on. A user recommended doing it but didn't explain the reasons. Also, make sure you get a passkey for your username with [email protected]

First time trying it, I joined the AR15.com team. GTX 1070 and i5-6600k. I kind of feel like I'm sitting next to a space heater
 .
I requested a passkey when I first started, but the email has yet to arrive (4+ hours). |

There has been a rush of new donors, so their systems are a little overloaded. They actually ran out of Work Units yesterday, so the priority has been generating new ones.

Joined today. Two 2080TIs and an i9-9900K. A bit more load than the normal counter strike and COD:MW.

Just joined. Seems they are quick. Within about 15 minutes of downloading folding got a unit and then joined the team.

I just joined (the site and the team).
FYI this thread is impossibly hard to find. Why isn't it in General>Math and Science?

I just started back folding yesterday when I saw Arfcom has a team. I used to do it a long time ago for PC Pit Stop, which I think is defunct now.
I also just recently ordered a new to me computer. Should be able to really crank out the WUs with that thing. Time will tell though. I'll put the Tesla to good use though regardless!

Folding, after a 10-year hiatus and a new build. Only a modest system though.
