Folding@Home: CF Official Discussion Thread

When you build your C2D desktop, PM me and I'll help you through folding with the Windows SMP client.

To all of you: Those with Core 2 Duo processors, PM me if you want to support the team. I run my old Pentium D 820 at stock speeds, and still get between 650-800 PPD. Core 2 Duos (especially those with 4MB of cache) get well over 1000PPD when overclocked. Some have even seen the range of 1800PPD from one processor!

Ok thanks I will do that and I plan on overclocking it to.

1000 points per day? Thats a bit unfair if you consider my 29 CPUs (10 running 24/7) are doinng some 1300-1400 PPD.

Well guys, I'm back. I just got a new isp. The few WU's I have had lately are from other comps with internet access. They only run 8-10 hours a day. But my new cell phone gives me internet access for my home comp. I see my daily ave starting to go back up. KEEP on FOLDING! Take NO prisoners!
 
i had a computer laying around not doing anything and i was wondering what to do with it when i stumbled on this thread. So i thought, hey why not. I've been leaving in on round the clock now so it can just fold and fold and then fold some more. :)
 
Great thinking! I quit folding on my less than 1ghz comps because they aren't worth the $ electrically to just fold as they run for 6-10 days just for 1 unit.
 
mine is a 1.8ghz sempron, i still live at home so i don't pay the electric bill, my parents probably hate me, i leave at least 2 computers on all the time sometimes as many as 4
 
Nice

Nice to see some healthy discussion guys. Here are the latest stats.

If/when I get a macbook, I'll be able to run Windows (or mac) SMP on both of them. I don't know if I'll run it all the time with the macbook; it depends on temps.

We're nearing 450th!!! Keep up the good work!
 
hmm protein misfolding eh? im working on my masters degree in biomedical sciences, i do a lot of work with protein misfolding.
 
I just started last night... but in the thread (from your sig) it says you can download EMIII and gives a couple of broken links. Where can I actually get that?

And the 1,500,000... is that how many frames? :eek: I've only gotten 400 or so by myself.

I might hook up my other 2 computers (both sucky laptops that I never use). It's a great cause... I just don't want my room getting to hot :eek:

I wish there was a way to hook up my 360 and original xbox too... (my original xbox may or may not be modded... cough cough)



PS: I did notice that when the processor usage increases when the redraw method is called in the program, and, for instance, bringing up a different window and dragging it across the F@H GUI causes it to redraw several hundred times really fast... I did that and my processor usage shot up to 100%. That is most definitely a programming issue with the GUI, and I can think of no way to stop it, because it needs to trigger the redraw method... I don't know who to tell though (it isn't that big of a deal thought... I can live)

Argh, I lost a 1523 point WU that was supposed to come in today. At least I have a graphics card that works now.
