Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

Slinger,

Especially when you're folding Gromacs your CPU-temp can go up quite a bit.
For me this was a serious problem as I'm addicted to "silent computing" too, having a low airflow rig etc.

When you fold (and you should when you have your rig running anyway), keep an eye on those temps.

EDIT:

Motherboard Monitor is fine freeware to keep an eye on your CPU and HDs.
Regard the 65 degrees Celsius mark for your CPU as a border you shouldn't cross.

Han.

Just to show you what we're doing is child's play. :unsure:

It makes me humble.
Over at Sudhian.com a guy named MarkF build a 'Folding Farm'.
A rack totally filled with stripped boards, with a single goal: Folding.
Every floor in this rack carries 2 boards.

(Pics are shamelessly nicked from Sudhian)

I've been slacking lately, sold a processor a few weeks ago but hope to replace it in a couple of days time, X64 system also been down for a couple of weeks because it's been so warm here. I'll soon jack those rates up to reasonable figures again.

Maybe it just hasn't been running long enough to work out the speed, since it hasn't completed a frame yet.

God I hope so... :ph34r:

It's on my gf's computer, I'll check it again tomorrow when I go over...

Tough to swallow, those WUs, huhhh J'Pol ? :P

but the problem is i have no experience with CSS or anything

i only know basic HTML (frames and stuff)

Yeah, im about to take off for school, but you will have to explain this to me too, im probably already using it, just a bit confused.
 
the points are more uniform now, so works out better for us probably, at the end of the day, everything is the same for everyone, so. :D

also the tinkers are worth a hell of alot more now. :D
 
Hey hey.

I was browsing about my bisnes about Linuxes etcetera and stumbled
on this site.
I have no problem with this, just wondering how many projects is out there,
similar to Folding.
Must be few since SETI has been around for some time too.

Anyways, happy folding. Or Merry. Or Joyly. Or what suits ya.

:)

We have had a few warmer days just now Rock.
Is there any chance heat is the problem?

Like in "Sun shining on your case" or,
"Dust and cobwebs on yyour heat-sink" :ph34r:

Most times when you delete a work unit you'll just get the same one handed out over and over.

Yeah it sucks, been there, done that..... :angry:
