1. What is FAH?
FAH is a distributed computing project, the purpose of which is to learn how proteins fold and misfold. By breaking down the process by which proteins are created we can find out what causes them to miscreate or misfold. The hope is that this will lead to future research that can help scientists come up with better treatments/cures for many of todays common ailments. But the most important part of the project is putting together an effective model of how to fold and unfold proteins with supercomputer power.

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... h34r:

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

A WU is a work Unit. You have a tinker work unit and it will take you up to 4 days to complete. After you have completed it, it will be uploaded to the server and after a short time your name will appear among the team members names on the team page here http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py...e&teamnum=34905 Your score will be added to the team's score. Each work unit that you complete will be added to your name. Please read the guide at the beginning of this thread for more information... oh and welcome and thanks for joining our team!!!

Anyone able to give me a 5 step guide to 'getting' gromacs.
I read that page but it makes no sense to me and isn't clear. Im not sure which .exe to make a shortcut as the one mentioned isn't in my folding@home folder ot startup folder.

Cheers ........

and i want everyone to install the GROMACS thing its SOO EFECTIVE!

i had a wu tht was 2500 thingies long and i got it done in 24HRZ! thts over a 1000 in 12HRZ it helps ALOT!!! install it will make ur score go up

...Back folding for the team...

 

[CRX91]

Lamsey....look out, Lynx will soon be overtaking you... You will have to add another processor I am afraid :lol:

Edit: i=y

 

[sick and tired of you]

Meep Meep!

I also thought that if I moved it to here more people would read it.

I hope you can find people here that would do this

Simple enough

Congrats on the 14th place. With only 1 computer folding im folding like a turtle lately.

edit: Wtf is up with the code thing. If it's going to show the end result then what's the point. :dry:

 

[Allisonツ☮]

What's going on here?

If you look at the 24hr points avge, in most cases it is the weekly points divided by 7. But not always.

Livy: 61=395/6.5
Lamsey: 55=339/6
Dr Spud: 15=72/5
VB1234: 66=397/6
SummerLinda: 20=66/3

I realise that the stats are new and will probably correct themselves once they've been going a little longer, but can anyone explain these anomolies?

 

[Ambers mate]

yeah, had a look on the folding at home board, some other people have posted probs, but nothing form f@h team

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

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 !

 

[Shelby J]

yeah, i think it mainly relies on ghz. so a p43.2 will prob be better than a amd 3200.

ive had a few 5000 WU.

edit: inact ive got a 5000 unti now on my laptop.

 

[asgodintended]

I had to format my comp the other day so I lost that big juicy WU

Hey, gimme a link where to DL FAHcore_78.exe
Cant seem to find it.
All this tech talk and no links.

:lol:

Im on the team, i think, atleast im trying...

:cool2:
