And to sam4... Try it out. Its not as complicated as it looks at first.
 
hey there. i just found all this cool stuff & installed the program on my 2 computers. one runs 24/7, the other is about the same, xcept for an occasional restart. i plan to also install it on my parents' computer later which runs during the day.

the 2 comps are working on a size 400 WU each. B)
 
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.

:)

At the top of the list on the stats-page you'll find some cheaters using more than 1 CPU.

just coz ive got more than one pc doesnt mean im a cheater. :edit: we seem to be slowing down a bit now, we need more folders. :D

i think 7th should put a subcontent on the main page. get more people in. since we are higher ranked mor epeople will be interesed i think.

go team 34905

another quote:



but would this work on P4s?

I assume the windows client is optimized for Intel CPUs by default, and therefor Intel-based rigs don't need many switches.

Running Folding@Home has shown that AMD CPUs are awsome performers, but they need to be cared for, like any race-horse :rolleyes:

Folders on AMD CPUs have to find out which switches work best for them.
When you do want optimum performance you need a very stable machine with good cooling.
When you don't want optimum performance, you could fold without using a switch at all.

But, if you can't accept Lamsey outranking you ( like I can't ), you'll need the switches or a whole lot more machines. :01:

Fold on ! :)
 
Can't remember, was rookie the admin when you started that, or was it still 7th?

If it was 7th it might be worth asking rookie for a link to this thread on the front page. Just in case something happens to your laptop. ;)
 
Now folding!
Just started on my computer:

Athlon XP 3200+ w/ 512mb RAM 24/7

Will start with my gf computer tommorrow:

Athlon XP 1900+ w/ 512mb RAM 24/7

And in a few days when I finished building it:

Athlon 64 3500+ w/ 1.5GB RAM (will be 24/7)

I just had a question on the 64 bit processors. I'm using the newest version (5.03??) and I was wondering, 64 bit processors obviously pass data faster, but would are they eligible for the Gromac tweak i was reading about?

I read about 30 pages of this thread, but I can't be assed to read another 14, it was just far to much...

Also I read on page 28 about making F@H a process, would this work to spike public computers to run this application automatically on windows start? I've got access to at least 10 computers that run non stop, with little to no process power used for 90% of the time. I doubt the owners would submit to this willingly, so I'd just spike them to run as a process that runs in the backroung without making itself known... What better way to put all that processing power to work than to use it for such a great cause!
