Can't believe it's been almost exactly 1 year since last running FAH. Time flies - and cancer sucks.
Going to take a while to get back into it, but 87 must be held! |

I will fold! I used to run it on my PlayStation and PC. I have a nice GPU to run it on.

Funny. I think my current desktop has more power than the racks of servers I ran the client on in 2001.
Looks like 3 hours to complete a work unit |

Used to fold for an overclocking forum years ago. Stumbled across this thread. Added 1M or so points in the last week or two for the arf team.

I just jumped into the project. CPU is cranking away now.

Just joined the team. Great job guys! Those big beautiful numbers.
ETA: This is something different. I thought this was the Boinc group. This is different? |

I have been experimenting with boinc. And while some of the projects are neat, the folding@home seems to be very worthwhile contributing to. I am going to run Folding@home and help contribute some to the arfcom team.

Any tips on the config for running folding@home?
And I assume all I need to do is enter the team ID during setup and I will be contributing to the arfcom team? |

Is it possible to track electrical and wear and tear usage for a tax break for this?

Woah. My temps were nuts on my desktop. Hovering around 87-90 degrees. 95 is thermal shutoff I think. CPU is overclocked from 3.6 to 4.2 Ghz though/. Dropped it down to 4.1ghz and getting about 75-78 degrees now. Gpu has about A 13% overclock and hovering at 52 degrees.-

Just some random info.
2 months ago I started again after a 2 or 3 year absence. I was near the middle of the list on the team, I used to use an old laptop from back then just CPU mining. I returned 2 months ago and was around position 30, now I'm In the top ten of the team. I am only using a single GTX 1060. So I'm just saying, you too can be in the top ten with minimal effort now with modern tech. |

Hey, I just checked. Up to 13th. Just running on one computer right now.

I own more guns that I have NOT shot than guns that I have shot. So why do I keep buying them? Oh, wait, because I CAN!

Just started Folding again, did it several years ago. Waiting on my Passkey so I can get the bonus points for my RTX 2060 Super.

|
|
I need...more...power! Folding was off for a bit due to my FS 2020 testing but its back on. I wanted to let a few of you catch up to me again LOL.
ETA: My predicted points per day is currently 1.28m |

They were having trouble sending out passkeys, but got mine today. Right around 1.1 million PPD! 45,830th place but going to climb fast!

Haven't seen any conversation about this: https://foldingathome.org/2020/02/27/foldinghome-takes-up-the-fight-against-covid-19-2019-ncov/
Thoughts about that? Change the thread title slightly to pull interest? |
