Folding@home uses your spare CPU cycles to solve complex scientific problems. Its results could lead to cures for deadly and debilitating illnesses. You can help this project by downloading and running the Folding@Home client software. Here's how! I'll keep this thread updated with useful information about the current state of the Folding@home project.

GPU Version:
Folding@home's calculations can be accelerated by most modern graphics cards. The GPU client is currently the best and fastest way to complete work units and earn points, so if your system meets the requirements it's definitely worth checking out. You'll need an ATI Radeon 2xxx or nVidia Geforce 8xxx class card or better. Radeon owners can use any Catalyst drivers since v8.1 (download: XP / XP 64-bit / Vista / Vista 64-bit / 7 / 7 64-bit). If you have a Geforce, you will need the CUDA enabled display drivers v174.55 or later (download: XP / XP 64-bit / Vista & 7 / Vista & 7 64-bit). If you don't already have them you will also need DirectX 9.0c or later and the .NET Runtime v2.0 (32bit / 64bit). Once you have installed the prerequisite software, it should be a simple matter to download and install the latest GPU client. You may also wish to check out the GPU FAQ for ATI or nVidia, and support is available through the ATI and nVidia folding forums. Note that you can (and should!) run the CPU client at the same time, as long as you give it 'idle' priority and give the GPU client 'low' priority under their respective settings. Then just sit back and watch the points roll in! :smile:

PS3 Version:
Since firmware version 1.6, the Sony Playstation 3 can run the Folding@home client. The PS3 is very fast at performing the types of calculations used by Folding@home, so if you have an internet-enabled PS3 you can make a big contribution and earn lots of points by putting it to work. To get started, select 'Life with PlayStation' from the 'Network' tab to download the application. It requires 500MB of hard drive space to install. Once it's running, press Triangle > Identity > Join Existing Team > 12679. The PS3 (like most any computer) can safely fold 24/7.

SMP Version:
Folding@home has SMP support for people with multicore or multiprocessor systems. This functionality is included in the default Linux and OSX clients, and a separate SMP-enabled Windows client is available. It is slightly more complicated to set up, but SMP work units give extra points to make it worth your while. You shouldn't have any problems if you follow the instructions on the download page. If you have a dual or especially a quad core processor, it is recommended that you run the SMP client to earn the most possible points.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How do I get one of those colored helixes under my name?
After you have completed at least one work unit for team Shroomery, go to your basic preferences and scroll down about half way. Fill in the 'Folding@home Username' field.

What's the deal with the different colors and lengths?
The longer the helix is, the more of a contribution you've made to the team total (it's logarithmic). The color goes from grey through red and green depending on how many points you've received in the past week.

I already have Folding@home points with another team, can I transfer them?
Unfortunately no, but don't let that stop you from switching to 12679 anyway. :wink:

When I check my stats online it says I haven't submitted any results recently, what's wrong?
To find out, go to the directory where you installed Folding@home and look for a FAHLog.txt file. Open this in any text editor and scroll to the bottom to see the most recent output. The most common errors you are likely to see:

"[08:57:39] - Error: Could not transmit unit 01 (completed some date) to work server."
Make sure Folding@home's "Use IE Settings" option is set to no - your client.cfg file should contain the line 'usereg=no'. Make sure you're connected to the internet and Folding@home isn't blocked by your firewall. Check http://folding.typepad.com/ to see if there's an outage. As a last resort stop the Folding@home client, delete "queue.dat" and the "work" subdirectory, and restart Folding@home.

"[03:15:22] - Error: Attempt #1 to get work failed, and no other work to do."
Make sure Folding@home's "Use IE Settings" option is set to no - your client.cfg file should contain the line 'usereg=no'. Make sure you're connected to the internet and Folding@home isn't blocked by your firewall. Check http://folding.typepad.com/ to see if there's an outage.

"[02:41:58] - A potential conflict was detected: Process 1392 is currently running and may also be a client with Mach. ID 1."
You have multiple installations of the Folding@home client, make sure that's on purpose. Verify in the client.cfg files that they have different machine IDs. Restart the stopped client.

Little Known Fact:
By default, the Folding@home client takes a conservative approach to system stability. Any time it terminates abnormally, it assumes it caused the crash and disables SSE and 3DNow instructions on the next run. This can be useful if you have a faulty or overclocked processor. However, there are many other reasons your computer might crash or restart unexpectedly. If you know your hardware is stable you can run Folding@home with the -forceasm flag to disable this behavior.

Feel free to post any questions, comments or accomplishments in this thread!

Any ideas of what doesnt work? The graphics client is more CPU intensive, and requires some 3d rendering. Maybe download the console version for windows, and run that. Download it, move it to a good directory, and run it where you ultimately want it to be. It will create the files it needs in that directory, so be sure not to run it from your desktop.

Just enter your name, team id, and then if you want check off "run as service" and it will always run in the background without you having to do anything when you reboot.

Its kinda fun...

Plus you get to see yourself march up the list. Im already in the shroomery top 150! Ok, maybe its not big deal, but I find joy in the simple things in life lol.

I had 2 servers go down on my though, so my production is gonna drop :frown:

I should have them replaced soon enough though.

. Hell I even have my Xbox folding, that's a 733MHz Celeron and it takes a week to finish a work unit but it's better than nothing! ShroooomerToo, if you visit this page it has an overview of the Folding@home project and links to more detailed information. If you have any specific questions I'll be glad to answer them.

wow, I just read all I could about protein folding, and I STILL don't get how computers can be used to help! Are you saying there is not a computer on this earth that isn't good enough already to calculate?

Please, I don't mean to be offensive in any way! Probably very annoying, but I don't get it?

Well, the simulations they're trying to run are very complex. But the problems can be broken down into many pieces which are small enough to be solved on home computers. With enough home PCs all working together on different pieces of the problem, it's like they have a powerful supercomputer. There are some systems which are too slow to make a useful contribution, but in general any processor with SSE instructions can help (so that's Pentium 3 class or better).

The important thing is that the project could lead to scientific breakthroughs and cures for serious diseases, and there isn't really any downside to running the program. So even if you don't understand all the technical details, I'd still encourage you sign up!

I hope this makes sense though, please let me know if you still have any questions.

I'll be glad to give out a free supporter account each month to the top contributer. How do you find who's earned the most points in the past month though? I guess I could write a script to parse the last 7 months production for each user, it seems like there should be an easier way though.

No fucking wonder I can't catch up!

BTW, when are they going to come out with a SMP version? I have a dual core machine but only one can be used at a time with the current implementation.

#6755565 - 04/06/07 07:36 PM (4 years, 10 months ago)

I have a dual-core CPU. It's very easy to get them both crunching for F@H. You just need multiple copies of the console, in different directories (eg. C:\Program Files\Folding@home\CPU1 and CPU2). Configure them the same, except give them different machine IDs (1 and 2). I recommend answering 'yes' when it asks whether to install as a system service, you'll never even know it's there. Until the SMP client is out of beta this should work fine.

Oh and thanks for bringing a PS3 to the team Legend! You can tell who has one, since their stats make my years of contribution look like the work of a pocket calculator. :wink:

"There is already another Folding@Home running. Only one copy may be run at a time. This copy will now quit."

Hmm... did you install it twice to different directories or just copied?

#6755797 - 04/06/07 08:49 PM (4 years, 10 months ago)

Hmmm... you're using the console right? Download the executable and copy it to two different directories. Run the first one and set it up, then run the second one and set it up the same except with a different machine id. For me that's all there is to it, but I'm thinking this may be the problem:

Quote:

-local

Use configuration files from local directory. This option has no meaning on Linux, but is vital on Windows and Macintosh for running multiple clients on a machine. It instructs the client to read its config information from the client.cfg file in the current directory rather than, on Windows, from the installation directory specified in the registry, or, on Macintosh, the Library/Folding@home directory. Information such as the user name, team name, proxy information, machine ID are maintained in the client.cfg file. The flag ensures that work does not conflict. Use "-local" only if you are planning on running more than one instance of Folding@Home on the same machine (this is only useful if you are running on a multi-processor machine). Create as many directories as there are processors on the machine, copy the exe files and client.cfg file into each of these directories, run "FAH3Console -local -config" on each and specify unique machine IDs for each directory (under the Advanced Settings option). From then onwards you may run each copy by switching to its directory and running with the -local flag.

Since I run them as services, maybe -local is implied...? Anyway I've never had to use it but maybe you should give it a try.

I checked my stats today and it says that I'm only folding on 1 machine but I'm really folding on 3. Is this because they (the computers) are all connected to the same internet connection through a wireless router?

Nope it doesn't matter if you have multiple PCs sharing an internet connection, they should still show up separately. But I just checked and it says you have 2... did you recently start folding on one of the computers? It might not have finished its first work unit yet.

The SMP client should run on all cores if it's set up right. Running more than one SMP client wouldn't work, well, maybe on Quad Core, but better to get the work done more quickly by running only one instance. Check your deadlines if you're running on a slower dual core. It would be poopy if it wasn't getting done fast enough to help the project. No PS3's here, all linux network, one Quad, one Dual, a pentium 4 and 2 pentium III's. But I'll pay for electricity if somebody wants to buy me a PS3. :smile:

My helix changes color from time to time. I know it's supposed to do this as you get more WU's, but it's doing it without me getting any more and without me submitting my name when I edit my details. Does it automatically update your completed frames without you having to type your name in?

I just joined the Shroomery team on folding@home.
I have 4 computers in my house. Now if I put all 4 running folding@home, would it help the shroomery team anymore, than just running it on one computer?

Definitely! The Folding@home project can take advantage of multiple PCs, you'll get (roughly) 4 times as many points by running it on 4 different computers. Just make sure to enter your same username and our team number each time you install it so your work is properly credited. Thanks for signing up!

Not a problem and thanks for the quick reply. I'll start hooking up all my computers.

Also, is there a way to give the program more space to run, so it's more efficient. All of my CPU's are running on 240+ Gigs with NVIDIA GFORCE, and AMD Turion64 x2 processors. I'd be willing to give it 2 gigs each.

Come on guys, most of these Q's have been answered in the first post.

Bandwidth: The chunks of data you get are about 1mb~, unless you set special flags for larger work units. Depending on the speed of your PC and the WU, it might take anywhere from a day to a few days to complete work on that unit, and send back the results (a very tiny file). So you're looking at like 2MB transfered once in a while (days?)
In other words, you wont even notice it, even if you tried.

Troika: The above answer pretty much answers you too. The file sizes are typicaly pretty tiny, and its not the space that matters, its the speed of your CPU, and the proper configuration for it. (Your turionx2's might need a special setup from the regular client. These have been made user friendly since dual cores are more common now.) :thumbup:

Question for ya. Do you know any way to limit the size of the information being sent back to them? My university has a bullshit bandwidth quota which limits me to uploading 512MB per 7 days. Yes, it's bullshit.

Anyway... I've almost had my connection turned off because I set up 2 console versions to take advantage of my dual core 3.57GHz processor. Any clue on how I'd limit the size of the work units via the console?

You don't transfer much data, the work units are small and the results are even smaller. It depends on the particular work you're doing but I doubt you'd ever upload more than 5MB a week even with two instances running. However to answer your question I don't think FAH has any soft of built-in support for an upload quota.

Well, I just turned both processes back on... We'll see if there's any correlation between F@H and my bandwidth by tomorrow. As of right now, my machine has sent out 33MB worth of data... If there's a huge spike in outbound data... I'll know that F@H is the culprit. In the past this has been the case.

You think something could be set up wrong?

Yep... It's F@H causing the spike in bandwidth usage. Take a look:

See the stair step pattern in upload traffic? That'd be F@H. Balls. Guess I'll have to at least turn off one process. meh :frown:

ok I just installed it and all it is, is a helix ball rotating around. Is that what it is suppose to be? It says it should be done in like 20 minutes or so. What happens when i shut down my computer right now and then turn it back on in like 5 hours? Will it pick up from where it left off or just start a new process?

It saves its work periodically, so when you shut down and restart your computer it should pick up where it left off. Thanks for joining up!

Yea, hurray, lykos, MFKDGAF. Thanks for folding for the shroomery!

lykos, are you running the Windows or Linux SMP client on your quad? It's good science and good points both. Give it a try if you're running four uniprocessor clients now. If you like it you can copy the unfinished work off to the P4's and run SMP on your Quad.

Folding@home doesn't use much bandwidth at all. Any difference should be imperceptible. If your internet is slow there's almost certainly another reason.

It does look like it's working though, the stats page can take a few hours to update. Thanks for joining the team!

The estimate can be wrong until it's been running for a while, so I wouldn't worry about it. Most work units will finish in under a week unless you have a really old computer. If it takes longer than that and you still aren't close to 100% then something might be slowing it down. I'd keep an eye on it but my guess is everything's fine.

Peace,

Also, unrelated but I may as well post this now while I remember. Our team rank is falling precipitously! We're in 91st place right now but at the current rate we'll be 96th in just ten weeks. Being in the top 100 at all is a great accomplishment but we need to increase our team production if we want to stay there! If you haven't gotten around to installing F@H yet, please give it a try. It's quick and easy and the program is small and unobtrusive. If you have any extra computers, you can add them to the team too. We have 914 inactive members. If you gave up folding for some reason but are willing to try again, you can get tech support in this thread so it goes smoothly for you. And if you have a PS3, you can set it up to fold while idle and get a ton of points; my brother folds on a single PS3 and he's third in the team for production (right ahead of me :wink:

). Anyway please just generally spread the word and do what you can to help get more systems folding for team Shroomery. We've come too far to get passed by a team called D&D Minions!

anyone else running win ME?
since installing the F@H program iv'e had nothing but probs on this computer.
when i tried to uninstall i get this dialogue box>

THE WINFAH.EXE file is missing export user.DLL
GETLASTINPUTINFO

followed by>

c:\program file\folding@home\WINFAH.EXE
a device attached to the system is not functioning

on starting the computer i now have a "MATCLI" icon on the taskbar
if i don't click the "ok" button in the two dialogue boxes quickly enough the computer freezes.weird.

anyone else getting this or know if this "MATCLI" is related TO F@H?

I'm joking Rune.

I read somewhere that pi to 40 decimal places is sufficient to determine the circumference of the universe to within a few millimeters. And I think the current world record for pi is past a billion decimal places so we have enough for now. :tongue:

How long does it take

Different wu are different size, so how long it takes varies. But several days isn't unusual even on a fast machine. These are computationally hard problems to solve. That's why it takes so many of us to make progress.

It's too bad you uninstalled it, if there's a problem sending the results back to the server (which there is from time to time) it will continue retrying and you will eventually get credit.

#7948834 - 01/28/08 11:46 PM (4 years, 17 days ago)

So I've been having periodic problems with my Folding@home client, getting output like this in the log file:

Quote:

[07:24:09] + Attempting to send results
[07:24:40] Couldn't send HTTP request to server (wininet)
[07:24:40] + Could not connect to Work Server (results)
[07:24:40] (171.64.122.83:8080)
[07:24:40] - Error: Could not transmit unit 01 (completed January 24) to work server.

The solution is to ensure that Folding@home's "Use IE Settings" option is set to no. Your client.cfg file should contain the line 'usereg=no'. Hopefully someone will find this useful.

Absolutely, just run ./FAH504-Linux.exe & and fold away. In fact, like most applications it will probably run best on Linux. :wink:

Hi, I'm completely new to both folding@home and the shroomery. It was a nice coincidence that on the day I installed folding a friend recommended joining this forum (I don't know the name he uses on here). My folding name is Gecko and I hope to be rising my way through your team ranks shortly :grin:

What exactly is this art project? It won't load anything for me but I can move the bar back and forth across the half-pipe looking indicator bar.

The 360 does not have Folding.

I wish my internet didn't cut out a lot so I would be able to Fold better.

Nothing anymore, I guess.

I leave my computers on 24/7 anyway, but for other reasons. I just figured that the stress of running for a long time wouldn't be healthy for game consoles, which for aesthetic and price reasons are poorly ventilated.

Im a tech guy and I will vouch that if air quality is great your electronics with CPUs and Hard Drives staying on all the time with CPU @ 100% folding will most likely make it last longer than if it was powered up and then shut down in a cycle.

Expansion and contraction affect everything.

If you keep anything at a constant it will degrade less over time.

Thats absolutely correct, in years past with older style processor sockets, the expansion and contraction of letting the processor heat up, then cool down when shut off cause 'Chip Creep' which is basically when the processor (or any other chip not held in place) would wiggle itself out of the socket causing a non-booting system. I would also like to note, I just joined the Shroomery F@H team, I am running it on several multi-core machines across my network.

While I'm psyched to have finally broken into the top 100 for Team Shroomery :shocked:

, I just noticed that the team as a whole has dropped out of the top 100 overall.

I LOVE seeing that this community outperforms tens of thousands of others.

We're currently 112th out of 117,882 teams. I just brought a second processor online. Go team!

I just installed on my weak compy at work- not fast, but better than nothing.

We leave our systems on at home on occasion, like when we're in and out of the garage/party central. My roommate's an engineer, and might be able to appreciate the value of crunching data like this...if so, I'll sign on his phatty dual core machine as well as (of course) my dual core at home. Both have x1600 or better ATI cards...hmmmm...of course, we don't want to use up precious cycles when gaming...must think on this.

And I think I'll have to put the secretary downstairs on as well :evil:

It's neat, I've participated in dist. comp. (I'm not personally concerned with SETI, etc) but this project sounds valuable enough to be worth my involvement.

Also, it's cool to see this community participate in a project like this!

If youre worried about games, you can set it to have a low priority and only use so much cpu, or to only come on after x minutes of inactivity, or set it to not automatically come on at all.

I just have it to come on after 30min inactivity, and it works fine. Course I don't anymore cuz my laptop dies from heat, but there ya go.

#8373276 - 05/07/08 01:04 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

I recall reading that someone noticed that only one core was running while folding...I assume they gathered this info through ctrl-alt-del "performance" tab.

Mine works with both cores, so says the graph.

I wonder if it could have anything to do with processor drivers or that AMD dual-core "optimizer" software?

Also, I decided to do some >5mb work units at home...those proteins are some big boys compared to the little guys on my office compy. :grin:

It's sort of addictive to see how much work's been done, and also interesting to read about the various projects.

it looks like it's downloading, the numbers run up to around 70,000bytes really fast then tells me there's an error. i couldn't find any info about this.

I think that using your spare CPU cycles to solve complex scientific problems for the better is great!

One question, if i install this folding program to more CPUs, will all of them be able to run under my username??

Absolutely, the answer is yes. All you have to do is log each client you install with the appropriate login information (username, password) and each WU it completes will be credited to your account. I currently have 2 processors online and have had 4 in the past.

It could be a number of things. I'd recommend, first and foremost, uninstalling the client, rebooting, then reinstalling the client and see what happens.

If you're running a firewall and haven't made an exception, there might be a problem with the downloaded core file. Give it a shot and report back.

I just started folding again after a long time away. I started using the screensaver version (OSX) so it can run while I'm away. I've noticed that when I return to my computer, it's extremely warm and I can hear the fans etc. working much harder than they typically do. Is this normal? I feel uncomfortable letting this run for long periods of time because of this but maybe I'm just paranoid .... ?

Thoughts anyone?

That's definitely normal, it's because your CPU is operating at full capacity and it's nothing to worry about. Your system is engineered to withstand the heat. In fact by running at a continuous high load you reduce temperature-related expansion and contraction which can physically stress the CPU (although you also make the CPU more prone to the effects on electromigration). But honestly, with modern hardware, neither one of those concerns is anything but academic. Your hardware should outlast the usable lifespan of your computer even when utilized to its full capacity.

However, I notice you said you're running OSX. The one caveat to the above is if you have a Macbook or Macbook Pro. In the past they came with too much thermal paste applied, and this can cause real heat problems. If your system is affected, you should get it serviced by Apple. But just because it runs hot after the CPU has been maxed out for a while doesn't necessarily indicate a problem. If it starts crashing or shutting down on you because it gets so hot, then I would be concerned.

Just wanted to introduce myself as a noob to the forums, mycology and folding! Started folding a couple days ago, with my quad-core running the SMP client and my 8800GTS running the GPU2 client. My PS3 is on its way back from an RMA and should have that folding by mid-week too!

Veda,

that's something that happens when the assignment server is overloaded. It happens every few weeks where it just continously stalls over and over. It can do it up to 30 times (in my case) before it finally rounds itself out...

If it stalls for more then 5 days, then there's something more importantly wrong.

Then there's a problem on your end. I have 2 processors on this computer right now constantly updating, one with a Amber Wu and a Gromacs Wu. Maybe look into the F@H forum and see if your having a similar issue as some others. Hard to guess without knowing specifics.

i just setup 2 dedicated linux servers that are on 24/7 with the shroomery folding team. one is setup as a service, the other i have not setup for service yet, but it will probably be more than a week when this computer gets rebooted, and it will probaby be a service by then. =)

are you using the console version or the heads up version?

If your using the console version, go with FAH Mon, its a little 3rd party monitor that tells you all sorts of neat stuff about your work. I like it anyway...Plus it will give you a direct access to your accounts ranking in the big Shroomery list showing how many you've done and where your at.

Brutal.

Hmmm, Fahmon will work with your version that you have. Though the issues with saved data, that sounds familiar. I used to use the SMP for windows but would only cause me grief so I went back to single cored older models, one GPU (with shared 1 core) and a regular CPU engine.

Have you found any of the aforementioned issues in the folding forums?

I got fahmon to work, but its got a wee red coloured box next to it, cant read my core though knows my progress. no ETA

Had a look round the folding forums and found similar problems with no real answers.

I did find a post asking how you shutdown FAH. I generaly just close the terminal. Through that post i found out that ctrl-c sends to shutdown signal to an app thats running but that window must be active.

I shut it down that way, and today started it up and it resumed at 87% yay, ive almost done 1WU.

Awesome.

With Fahmon, I noticed it takes the better of 3-6 days for it to 'work the bugs out' so to speak...like it needs several finished WU's before it actually starts recognizing what actually going on. But after it gets on track, it works terrific.

Now all ya gotta do is list your name/number on your account so you can get a spiraly DNA :thumbup:

Yikes, that is a massive one. But worth a whole pile...that's the thing with the SMP WU's though, they are assigned massive projects that the single core engines will never see I usually get 2485, 2484 pieces.

You'll definitely see something in the next day or two...unless your monster takes an extra long time.

I ditched the smp client and went with running 2 single core clients. My pc's just not powerfull enough to get through those massive work units. It would be several months at the rate it was going.

fahmon has crapped out now. gets stuck at downloading.

Well keep in mind that if Fahmon craps out, it doesn't mean the cores have crapped out. Its just fahmon being stupid....I've had it do that lots to me especially at the start up of a new computer.

If you have a nice GPU (geforce 8xxx and up, I don't know where ATI's start at since I have a 9800GTX+) you can use that to boost your points substantially. Just be aware if you go with GPU you need to dedicate 1 core to the GPU...simply don't use 1 and keep the other core loaded with a single core engine going.

Whoo! And after some time...you'll be awarded bigger packages (it'll make a big difference if you opted for Big WU's and Advanced packages in your parameters) worth 905 points! I got 440PPD on my work computer with a smaller Athlon X2 getting 905 point WU's.

Hey, Mephistophelian, I did not want to hear that.;)

I think having the helix displayed is a good thing not to just show off, "Hey, look at me everyone, I'm saving the world." More like, "Hey, if you don't know what this is, click on it, and now you do. You see all these people doing it on here, maybe it's something to look into." People are more likely to join something if they think it's the popular thing to do. That's one reason why voicing your voice is important.

Why not have your computer actually compute something instead of being idle? We would get on someone for not using their full brain capacity, what makes a computer any different? Plus like I read in the previous posts, it expands the lifetime of your computer as mine is now on 24/7.

Along with warming up a heatless spare bedroom. :sun:

My thoughts exactly...its why I have my helix. Its what got me into it, was curiosity of someone elses helix. So I attacked friends computers, work computers...everyones computers to get in on helping.

amd phenom ii 3.0ghz (will overclock soon as i get psu)
2x ati radeon 4870 x2's (4 gpu's)
16 gb ddr2 800
1200 watt psu(my third one that was broken, i already how powerhouse power loss, i mean 9 volts instead of 12 kills computers)
but yeah i got a ps3 already and i don't know exactly how to start folding@home, i mean like i got it up but can i play music and browse in the background? i love this project and will donate all my power to this cause. i finished a wu in less than an hour before my psu broke

Need help [Re: 1dude1]
#9814774 - 02/17/09 01:50 PM (2 years, 11 months ago)

Hello everyone, new to this forum but very interested in learning. have recently started a grow and went through everything step-by-step using the pf tek method.

Trying for phys cubensis, at almost 9 days still showing no colonization or even any growth at all. Out of 4 jars, 1 has a small, white spot growing about 3/4 size of a dime.

Couple of questions: initially for the first 3 days, was only able to keep at a temp range between 67 and 75. As far as i know, should shoot for 75-81. However moved jars to a warmer location, now steady right around 78 but has been almost another 6 days in this temp.

How long should we expect to go before growth starting for keeping at a lower temp, or does it mess up the whole grow?

After steamong/boiling for 90 minutes, let cool for almost 2 hours, part of the time by fan, should i let them sit overnight before inoculation?

ALso, is it good to bake the verm before making the substrate? The verm is older, been sitting around a while, and i wonder if that has anything to do with it.

Used verm, brown rice flour substrate. Recommend anything else for p c?

Also, is scotch tape over the holes the wrong tape, at first thats all we had and we picked up some medical tape. Would that have anything to do with no growth?

I played around with this on here about two or three years ago...I started again the other day..I just made up my user name (I guess that's how it works) - it hasn't reported any stats yet... but I believe my new quad core should do better!

There should be an option to max out whatever resources it wants. I'd leave it churning through work units whenever I'm not using it :shrug:

I updated my original post with an offer for a free lifetime supporter account. I'm reposting it here for everyone's convenience.

For a limited time, you can earn a free lifetime supporter account by running Folding@home! Just be the first person to knock me off the #1 spot on the team's top 20 producers list, and hold the position for at least a week. I reserve the right to cancel this offer in the future, but not in a shady way to screw any legitimate challengers, only if I get tired of waiting.

So get folding! :grin:

I take it that looking at other people's points, they either have super fast computers, a lot of computers, or both. :crazy:

That does seem kind of low, I think your computer should have a 2.0 or 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo, is that right? Make sure you have the latest version of the client, and follow the installation instructions to ensure that SMP support is enabled. If you run the clent 24/7 and continue to receive such a low score, please reply with your /Applications/Folding@home.app/FAHlog.txt attached.

i just signed up and started folding. it's working on project 783...?

how long should it take to complete a step? out of 500,000... i'm running a 2.2GHz dual core... both cores are running 100% right now :smile:

and i'm doing nothing but typing this, folding and listening to music.

edit: i can't find my FAH username on the extreme overclocking site... why?

Hello,

Funguymon,
Something must be wrong.
Even only running at one core you should have more points.
I would try uninstalling. Then reinstall with smp support

hmm... right now it appears to be working faster this time, but I don't know if that's because this is a smaller work unit or what. I downloaded the software about eleven days ago. How could I tell if I have the SMP or not? Is it not automatic?

I'll wait on this one and see what it averages out to be. My computer completed the last one in a little less than eight days.

What would anyone else expect the average to be? Here are my computer's stats.

Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook1,1
Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1

For a limited time, you can earn a free lifetime supporter account by running Folding@home!

I reserve the right to cancel this offer in the future, but not in a shady way to screw any legitimate challengers, only if I get tired of waiting.

So get folding!

What's with the few months there where you were not running it? Probably have 10 of your friends with PS3's running F@H with your number and name on it, on top of your CPU's and GPU's

Maybe you can tell me how to get it roaring on my PhenomX4 9850 and my Dual SLI GeForce 9800 OC's
I bought it all and sorta had a friend build and program it for me.

Hello Funguymon,

If you installed the first client from
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/MacSMPGuide

You should be good!

You can run the Activity Monitor on your system which should be located in /Applications/Utilities on your system. The activity monitor will be able to show you cpu and ram usage etc.

Hello Mad Merlyn,

You can download your GPU and CPU clients here
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther
For CPU I would suggest the MPICH console client

"Windows XP/2003/Vista/2008 SMP client console version 6.23 beta for MPICH (32-bit or 64-bit) "

The installation instructions are next to the download link. Follow them closely and you should not have a issue.

For GPU I would suggest
"Windows XP/2003/Vista GPU System tray client with special viewer for NVIDIA GPU's (installer msi) "

I followed the instructions here
http://forum.xcpus.com/xtreme-folding-home/12627-guide-running-client-multiple-nv-gpus.html

Remember you will need switch your computer from multiple gpu mode to multiple display mode and have a monitor attached to every card. Little more trickier.

Mad Merlyn,

I'd just keep them in multi-gpu then and run one gpu client

Download the same gpu client and follow the installation directions which are also next to the download link

This is on a core2quad 2.83ghz

[06:16:02] Completed 165000 out of 500000 steps (33 percent)
[06:25:37] Completed 170000 out of 500000 steps (34 percent)

From what I hear, 4 cores with folding is more efficient then 2 so even if the clock speed was the same it would be still less then half the speed compared to 4 cores.

On a 500000 step WU, I estimate 40minutes per % for you ?

So you guys get a idea on how slow this really is (Your client is most likely not broken!!)
examples
core2quad 2.5ghz
[14:28:38] Completed 10000 out of 250000 steps (4%)
[14:34:28] Completed 12500 out of 250000 steps (5%)
[14:40:18] Completed 15000 out of 250000 steps (6%)

2 x dual core 1.6ghz xeons (4 cores total)

[18:46:04] Completed 540000 out of 2000000 steps (27 percent)
[19:04:56] Completed 560000 out of 2000000 steps (28 percent)
[19:23:51] Completed 580000 out of 2000000 steps (29 percent)

2 x amd 275's 2.2ghz ( 4 cores total)
[05:52:17] Completed 100000 out of 2000000 steps (5 percent)
[06:13:39] Completed 120000 out of 2000000 steps (6 percent)
[06:35:00] Completed 140000 out of 2000000 steps (7 percent)

no more examples cause I don't want everybody to know my whole setup :laugh:

first of all, you have a lot of computers. :lol:

second. apparently i'm slow as crap:

[05:04:14] Completed 70000 out of 500000 steps (14 percent)
[05:19:15] Timered checkpoint triggered.
[05:34:16] Timered checkpoint triggered.
[05:49:17] Timered checkpoint triggered.
[06:04:18] Timered checkpoint triggered.
[06:19:19] Timered checkpoint triggered.
[06:34:21] Timered checkpoint triggered.
[06:42:01] Writing local files
[06:42:01] Completed 75000 out of 500000 steps (15 percent)

that's over an hour per percent. centrino duo 2.2 or 2.4 GHz (i don't remember :shrug:

Don't know where to find total number of pieces for the one my CPU is running ... But my graphics card has a 10000000 piece one that I'm cranking away at 20 percent on ... That's about 3 hours worth ...

The CPU is running it's own but it's smaller ... I think it's 1.5 mil ... Will check in the morning. There has to be a way to run 100 percent on my CPU with this thing

Crossfire is not supported sadly. Apparently running the gpu client on crossfire'd cards run slower than on a single gpu.

Damn you guys and your multiple servers and computers and all :lol:

I'm not one much to talk tho, Since I am running a gaming machine and 3 separate instances of F@H. 2 GPU's and 1 Quad-core Processor.
I could up the bill some and open the closet, build a few computers, get em all online and just designate whatever I build to F@H. After looking over all the specs for the GPU processors I have a feeling I can add up to 3 more GPU's if they all are still in working order and up to 6 more processors for a total of 12 active processors.
Something tells me I just need to call my friends with PS3's and have them put my name and the shroomey's team number in them, then there would be no stopping me :grin:

Something tells me that anyone running F@H on their PS3 has the best chance of winning this prize.

cpu's and PSU died
replaced both with some 4 core ones. I saved these for a emergency, didn't have folding in mind, but this is a emergency!!! :smile:

For a system with 8 cores I would just run the smp client twice correct ?

Well she is up and running and the cores are roaring

Running 2 instances of the smp client produced some really weird results for me, like having 4 cores active, but the context switching was INSANE, like the threads were jumping between processors. was weird. but yeah I believe thats all you can do. I would think that you could just specify 8 cores on the smp client, but I guess not.
Emergency backup?? haha, amazon e2c anyone?

i would attempt this but the fact that people can get others to put points in under there name ruins the whole thing for me

people say the ps3 rocks for this but whenever i run it, it says 3+ hours for just 1 WU or w/e its called. then i look at some of ythans days and he has 210 WU's lol its not even worth trying

My 8 core replacement is dead, she lasted about 4 hours

~~Grow~~ Folding Log
==================================
Day 1
1.) Early AM
Node 2 and 4 go down.
Node 2 had a bad Hard drive
Node 4 needed new ram

2.) Late PM
Main node (Node 1 ) down
Needed new CPU's and PSU
Few hours later still down

Day 2
1.) Early AM
GPU client at comp at home crashes when you load it now.

Not looking to good in my eyes

DRT, disable crossfire, and run one instance of the GPU client, and one instance of the SMP client, configured to use less cores than you have, so if you have 4 cores, run it on 2. I was reading the FAQ and it states that you need a free cpu to keep the GPU client running smoothly.
As for ps3 users, looks like they do kick everyone's ass.
Trebek, you're falling apart, but ruling this one, I can't keep up!

Well, as far as I know, you need 1 core per GPU being used...so you'd use 2 of your 4 cores for GPU's and 2 regular cores, which you'd SMP.

Though I don't have that many cores running (I have a dual core and 1 GPU) so I don't use SMP either so I can't help with setup, I just know you need a 1 for 1. The GPU's are definitely worth it but compared to SMP you'd have to check.

OK

The GPU version gives me BSOD (with brand new components in my pc) so I dont mess with it. Is it possible to run the GPU version on the tray without running the visual display that crashes me? Then I could run GPU on 1 core, and the single core client on the other to maximize my folding.

I use the Windows SMP version on my Wolfdale E8500

How do you make top 20? Just have to have the most powerful computer possible or what? so those top 20 are the most powerful computer owners running fold@home? is that it?

but i guess they are doing it by daily figuers, so all you have to do is beat alex for one day to start it over, and hold it for a week and you win

Everyone I know with a PS3 doesn't even have it connected to the Internet. I have looked into a few of my old and outdated computers and found that I can easily put together 3 computers, but only 2 of them have the capability of running a stand alone GPU, but I can still add 5 more processors to my catalog.

I am still helping for a good cause tho so I'm okay with that even if I don't win.

The Folding@home project has published a number of papers in publications including Science and Journal of Molecular Biology. I'm way out of my league when it comes to evaluating the relative importance of their results, but some that look interesting to the layperson include:

Investigating the cause of Htt protein aggregation in Huntington's disease
Better understanding of how the flu virus functions
Research into the functioning of ribosomes, which create proteins and are fundamental to human life
Learning about membrane fusion, which is part of many biological processes but poorly understood

There are many others too. And they also have a number of papers related to validating and explaining the techniques and technology they're using, since they've done a lot of work in those areas to advance the project.

Alex Trebek, Ythan, any comments on how fast it's going on my computer? I noticed as well that it does slow my computer down, which is normal, right? I ask these questions because I feel like something isn't quite right. :stoned:

Look on the last page for my post.

It shouldn't slow down your computer really. But you do only have 512MB ram. With mac os x loaded, folding using memory and then you trying to use memory, yea I would definitely say you would experience slowness.

I think laptops are generally slow. My dual core amd 1.90mhz toshiba laptop does less then yours so I would say your fine.

pretty sure a server would kick ass for folding aha. especially with the best hardware and the GPU version on its.. say 8 processors? I think you can do that with servers am I right? I know they have way more space for hardware.

Well Alex you spanked me pretty good, at the moment you're pulling in almost 2x as many points per day! You must have a pretty fearsome folding farm. :grin:

Anyway no doubt you earned that supporter account, you're all set up so it won't expire. And I hope you'll keep up your folding since we need a strong team leader. :yesnod:

For everyone else, you may not have been the first one to take the top spot, but there are still some strong competitors on the team so I'm extending the offer as follows: anyone who tops me on the team's producer list and holds the spot for a week will get a free one year supporter account. And if you take the #1 position on the team and hold it for a week, you'll get that coveted lifetime supporter account. So keep on folding!

yo if you had 10 decent machines no matter what OS, you would still need to grind hard to become a top producer. unless you used the GPU client which is awesome.

If they're trying to get top, the regular client won't barely help them.

EDIT: IMO the GPU client is about 15x faster

So, just how efficient is the PS3 at running F@H? I've been tempted to run mine for a few days just to find out. But I really don't want to put the strain on the machine. Its just for gaming and an occasional blu-ray, and I can't replace worn out parts like I can on my PC.

PS3 should be under warranty

And it will probably only break if it was bad to begin with.
Which is actually a good thing cause then you caught it before the warranty is up :smile:

Hey, this is my first post!! too bad its not something more intresting. Am i able to run folding@home on vista on a guest account? And also anybody know why on my display of the folding process there are no buttons or statistics like iv seen other people have on youtube. It just shows a 3D protein spinning on a black backround and thats it, nothing else. Thanks. I look forward to contributing more to the site!

P.S. dual core 2.4gz processor with Nvidia 9800M GT card. it takes me 24 hours to pump out 1 WU thats 10,000 units long is this good or not? im working on my 2nd WU now.

Damn, I was hoping to be able to beat Ythan but that's not going to happen unless I get some new hardware. I've given up for now; I can't afford to keep contributing right now because I dont want another massive power bill. I produced the most points using the following PC's:

Desktop: Intel Core2Quad Q9450 @ 3.2ghz, GeForce 8800GT 512mb, 4gb DDR2-800
Home Theatre PC: Intel Core2Duo E7300 2.6ghz, 2gb DDR2-800
Laptop: AMD Turion64 x2 2.6ghz, 2gb DDR2-667

I think if I get a nice AMD Radeon 4830 video card for my HTPC I might be able to beat you, Ythan :P

Good luck to all the other folders out there....

hows the i7 workin out? i know they have a gpu version of folding, so there's quite a bit of variables. when you test it could you let us know like if its just the cpu doing the folding, and how it compares to say, a ps3?

Ps3 wins Hands down. The "Cell" chips have 8 cores and fold like no other. The only way to compare would be to say that the GPU client is significantly faster than the CPU client and it still lags behind Ps3's.

#10019310 - 03/22/09 10:44 AM (2 years, 10 months ago)

can you run the cpu and gpu client at the same time? which makes me then wonder, does the ps3 use its gpu when its folding?

the cell must be a bit outdated at this point tho, i think the only reason the cell does so well is because its designed better for number crunching, where as cpu's are better for multitasking. honestly i don't know much about all that but the i7's should be some beasts

intel was talking about putting gpu's inside the cpu's, and nvidia was going to make a cpu lol. it seems as tho the cell is kinda like a gpu :shrug:

It is a faster CPU is all. It's FSB is beyond that of my Phenomx4 @1000hz.
You can run the SMP client to take advantage of all your cores in multiple core CPU systems and as many instances of the GPU as physical processors inside your machine.
Currently I run 2 GPU clients and the SMP client, and the SMP client on my Laptop as well.

To my knowledge Nvidia has already produced their CPU it just has not hit the market yet, but I could be wrong.

Tell me how the core i7 works out for you

Only tried in linux, wanted to test in windows but I haven't had any free time lately
I couldn't get smp going, So I ran 4 separate ones

I find a core2quad q9550 server was about 10% faster then the core i7 940
Core i7 is pretty damn snappy and responsive, I think the raw cpu power is lacking a bit

i think the reason the i7 isn't as good as it should be is because intel is full of a bunch of assholes that always keep you wanting more. for example, they release a new processor....with less cache wth? if an i7 had 12mb or more...which is what it should have done, at least 16mb. then they would be smashing amd into the ground. thats the common theme ive been noticing as im about to upgrade my computer, almost every single product i look at, im thinking all they had to do was this or that and they could have had a perfect product, they must be doing it all intentional as the trend is way to consistent.

you can pay $400 for a motherboard and there's still things that are wrong with it...it just doesn't make sense

I plan on using an ATI 3850 512MB for folding. Anyone have any info on how good they are at folding?

Imagine Folding using one of the new nVidia supercomputers with 240-960 cores.

If I had $5000 to spend I'd get one :eek:

Wow,
Miraculously, it says I am ranked 18th after a week or so of folding.
I am on a Macbook. I mean, I leave it on a lot, but I didn't think I'd ever make it to the top 20.
On the other hand, when I search for my username, it says I am ranked 407th.
Can anyone tell me what is going on?

It would be very nice to be able to win that supporter account though... :grin:

Seems to me like the majority of the papers on the stanford website are computer science oriented, which isin't a bad thing, but does not feel like this project is serving its intended purpose.
or possibly I only understand the titles that have something to do with CS, and the rest are all fucking biology gibberish that I never took enough of.

Agreed!

Merlyn!

cherokee, I gave you a link to published scientific papers that are based on the information gathered/produced by F@H. It answers a lot, though you probably wouldn't understand it since you aren't a scientist studying proteins. None the less it shows that progress has been made.

The tesla from what I hear isn't that great. It's essentially a GTX 280 with more gddr ram. Buy four gtx295 for the same price imo.

I'm using an i7 w/9600gt, a p4 w/8600gt, a laptop with a core2 duo w/8800m gts, and occasionally a athlon 64 w/9600gt. I'm only using two cores on the i7 (bad heatsink) and I'm 7th on the shroomery.

Also, the smp client is messed up for windows right now so it's better to use multiple instances of the uniprocessor version.

I've been folding for a little while now, but just submitted anonymously as there weren't any teams I was interested in joining.

Went ahead and started completing WU's for the shroomery, should be a decent contribution.

GPU clients FTW. Quad core q6600 < GTX 8800. seriously kids, I have an 8 core xeon box that is about par with one decent GPU box.

It runs as a background process and you would notice little effect, it is a small download and can just get the command prompt version which I believe is less than a Megabyte.

ALright so ive downloaded and installed. I think I did everything right (dont have a helix though)

So do I get a helix after its done some work> I think my computer really really sucks because its still at 0/300 lol

Does it take awhile to show on the site, cuz I checked the shroomery user list and im not on it, then i searched the site for cubie and it didnt have any matches.

:edit. Nvm guys I think I got everything worked out. I still want a cool helix though.

you have to enter your folding@home username into your shroomery profile after you have done at least 1 WU. then you get a helix.

it took me about 3 days to complete my fist one, then the day after that my F@H username was accepted here in the shroomery setup.. It seems the folding server resets its stats in the middle of the night, I guess around midnight GMT.. that is around the time my stat showed from the previous days finish..

I got an older laptop I am using it on.. and the first group size i got was 1500..lol

hey its for a good cause though, that's what matters.. I don't think I'll be getting top prize with the setup I currently have, but oh well..

Yes, In your account settings here, go to the personal info section then scroll down a bit and you will see the space to enter your folding@home username. It might take a couple days before it is available for tracking

Mostly, with the exception of people who fold with a ps3, as that tends to spank even the highest end processors and gpu chips.

I thought I had a bad ass pc , I mean i just built it and it's pretty fast. So I downloaded the g unit one instead of the cpu lol anyway some of the work it is like a billion points and takes 3 days! my pc needs some more mem I guess it has 4 2g spots ... 2 are filled (amd 64x2 5600+ 2.90ghz,3.25 gb ram ddr2 , sata yadda yadda) Should I just get the cpu version or what? lol

more ram isn't going to help with that, faster ram 'maybe' but barely noticed

what gpu are you using?

and its not really how long it takes to do them its how many points you get for doing it. i always felt they needed to make these workloads smaller because not everyone has the time to run them for 3 dam days and if you take much longer then it goes into the junk file and you gotta do a new one all over....seems like a very wasteful system that sopposedly "smart college people" designed.

just think of all the wasted energy and time people put into these junked files. the program is really only designed for one kind of person....the kind of person who never uses his expensive equipment :lol:

i never leave my computer on at night, but ill step away for an hour here and their...but thats never enough to finish one of these monster projects in time.

I got the new one for the ATI has the fancy display 32bit for xp maybe I just got a big work load... I read up on folding@home and it says that these huge workloads are not always available... The only reason I do not let it finish is because it slows my network down alot. The pc performs just fine and I'm don't even use the pc except to burn movies. I'd plan to be a gamer or at least have a gaming pc. Be nice to play madden on my pc

Just downloaded and installed it. While I was browsing through their website I noticed our team page shows "points" and "WU" values and was wondering what the significance of each was. I would assume the points are just a way of keeping track of who's done more work and WU might stand for work units or something.

Yeah WU stands for work unit and those are the chunks of data which you download and process. Some of them are more resource intensive than others and take longer to complete, so they earn more points. For ranking purposes only points matter.

In order to use the GPU client you need to have an ATI Radeon 2xxx or nVidia Geforce 8xxx, or better. Only Radeon and Geforce cards are supported, unfortunately it doesn't work with Intel graphics. You can still run the normal client though. :smile:

I just started folding on my PS3, I have one concern though. There's no place to input your user passkey on the PS3, just a place for user name and team number. Will the WU's and points still post to my user name?

I know if you fold on a normal PC and don't input your passkey you won't get the points for you WU's.

I've completed 2 WU's on the PS3 today and none of them are showing up on my stats page, not even showing an active processor. :mad:

I've done no harm, I keep to myself. There's nothing wrong with my state of mental health.

You don't need a passkey for our team. The WU's should still get credited to your username. did you stop folding? Looks like you did from your stats page, but you posted a ton of points for a single day (the same day you posted this message, the 16th) probably from your PS3.

is your (more accurate) stats page. Holla at me if you want some help.

Heh, looks like you posted a reply when you meant to start a new thread. Anyway, welcome to the Shroomery. Are you taking an SSRI (depression medication)? Often when people say they can't trip, this is why.

Is it true some people just cannot trip?

For starters I cant figure out why this guy posted this here. Second of all the question in the poll is not worded correctly
Yes its possible for an individual not to trip but no its not possible for someone not to feel potent shrooms for no reason.

The shrooms you have taken could be very weak.

There are medications that will stop an individual from experiencing the effects of certain chemicals. For example SSRI's(commonly anti-depressants) inhibit the activity of tryptamines which include psilocybin/psilocin

I have never heard of people having a natural tolerance to psilocybin mushrooms but I suppose its a possibility.

So you should check and see if you take any medications that work adversely with the substance, make sure you are getting potent mushrooms or even ones that are active at all and thirdly if the last too arent effective, take more. Make sure of the first too otherwise upping the dose when not necessary you could induce a very traumatic experience that could have a negative or positive impact on the rest of your life, so it should not be taken lightly. I have to stress this to you because your someone who has tried to smoke shrooms.

Once again you sort of made yourself look stupid for posting that question in the folding at home thread. Next time put it in its own thread in the right forum. just out of curiosity why did you post it here of all place?!?!?!?!?!?

:braindamage:

P.S. Smoking psilocybin mushrooms is retarded and does not work. The only people who do this are normally still in high school.The active alkaloids are destroyed by the flame. It is possible to smoke amanita muscaria mushrooms but those are nearly equivalent to the effects of your normal active shrooms and I would not recommend doing those all together. once again SMOKING PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOMS DOES NOT WORK. IT just makes you look like an idiot when you post about it and you should be embarrassed/ ashamed.

1) stop folding
2) drag the following three items to trash:
/Applications/Folding@home.app/ (the Folding@Home application in your Applications folder)
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Folding@home.plist
/Library/PreferencePanes/Folding@home.prefPane/

3) If you want to stop Folding forever drag this folder to Trash too:
~/Library/Folding@home/

I thought that I had already stopped folding, then I dragged everything to the trash. Now I can't empty the trash because of all these items are in use. :facepalm:

Should I re-install everything just to stop folding and try to delete it again? :confused:

You can fold on a PS3 though. I have been meaning to update my folding hardware. Get a few CPUs that are not the one I am on mostly, so I can run it undisturbed.

Just thought I'd pop in and say that I've started folding for the shroomery.
I've been folding for years, so it is an easy transition :syringe:

I had stopped folding over the summer due to the heat driving me mad but i started again recently but stopped contributing as anonymous and set up a user name and I'm kind of curious what hardware other shroomerites are using.

I'm using the GPU client as i have an overclocked ATI 4870, I'm mainly curious if people are using the CPU or GPU client but any hardware info past that would be cool

I ask as in 1 week of folding i have apparently become the shroomery's 9th fastest contributor and i have not even been running the client 24/7.

For a while i was using 2x gpu client, but I had to ditch one of my video cards, so now i'm running one gpu client and one cpu client.

I had 2x 9600gso, now just one. Unfortunately, the 4 series from ati doesn't put out as much folding power as it should, though mhouston and pandegroup are always working on making ati gear more efficient.

With the standardization of opencl, ati cards will really fly.

I have been kind of tempted to try out the CPU client but as I'm running an AMD 2.5ghz phenom quad core I'm not really sure i would like the time it would take per unit as it takes about 3 hours per unit on my GPU.
I'm assuming even with the 1 9600 your gpu is really thrashing your CPU in points per day? (unless maybe your processor is a 4ghz+ oc'd i7 lol)

opencl is what I'm really wanting, I'm intending to replace my rig next year with all new hardware including a next gen card so likely the ati 5870 or the nvidia g380 or gf180 (whatever nvidia call it) so I'm hoping i wont have to wait too long to get folding with much much more power.

I'm folding on several rigs, my own being an older (about 3 years) AMD Athlon X2 overclocked from 2.2ghz to 2.8ghz stable. I've never used the GPU version, I dont even know if my card can do it. I've got an old ATI X800 Limited Edition (X850 core). I've got it overclocked to it's stable maximum also.

Other rigs included are Dell's HP's and Compaq base rigs, nothing special.

Yeah, the gpu client smashes pretty much every cpu client, unless you are using the SMP on a quad. Even still, it is close. I was getting around 8000+ PPD with the 2x 96GSO You can still run the CPU client along with the gpu client- just make sure you leave 1 core for the gpu client exclusively.

unfortunately the current gpu core wont work on the x800's or the x1900's its only the x2000's and after due to it using the unified shader cores that are in the x2000's and all ati cards after.

I just started using virtualbox to run a couple xp virtual machines and am now running 1 gpu and 2 cpu cores at once, i surprised the old phenom handles it so well.

I'm letting the cpu cores share 3 to give them plenty of power and the gpu has the 4th to its self, now to wait and see what effect it has on my ppd

If you are running the virtual machines for the cpu clients-
I actually got better speed/ppd running the smp linux client in a virtual machine than i got in just XP. The thread handlers in linux are so much better than XP, it actually works out faster. Vita/Win7 have a much updated thread handler, and work faster than the XP versions as well, without any virtual machine. You might actually be slowing yourself down, running as you are.

I intend to swap to linux at some point i was just curious about the virtual machines,
i just grabbed some free vm software and happened to have an xp iso file on my hard drive so xp was just easy at the time.

but running a couple vm's with cpu clients on has made it much easier for me to break 2000ppd,
i know could easily break that with my gpu alone if it was ran 24/7 but i like to game allot

with all this multi core/vm fun I'm kind of tempted to buy the dual threaded, 6 core intel i7 next year, i would love to see what kind of ppd it pulls in when clocked about 4ghz

A corei7 in linux with HT on can get over 8000ppd at 3.7ghz. Assuming perfect scaling, the i9 (6 core) should bring around 12000 if you set everything up right.

hmm depending on the cost for the full system i may well go for Intel's new 6 core paired with an ati 5870 or something from nvidia's next gen as i want to move up this leader board :grin:

Does catalyst 9.3 still not work with the GPU client? I have it running but it keeps getting EUE or whatever they're called.

I just joined the team and it feel good! :vaped:

Its time to put my quad-core Intel CPU to good use! I know I'm not even using it close to its actual capacity (I have a CPU meter running), and this should do some good work for a good cause.

Thanks Ythan for creating a folding team for the Shroomery! We're (too early?) currently ranked 119 out of 171733!

That's pretty good in my book! Lets get it up to the top 10! We can do it, together...

Funny story, this whole "world" that we know everything about, well, that's all good and well, but we know nothing about the rest of that vast everything we call the universe.

Everything I say is heresay. All fiction for a fictional character.

How long does your computer fold for? As long as you are connected to the internet or just when you are loading pages?

Not too hip on the tech stuff myself.

I joined a few months back. It's cool to be able to help out without really doing anything. :cool:

I type in "Sheeno" under "folding@home username" in my account options, but I get:

"We cannot proceed.
The Folding@home username you entered has not yet returned any results for the Shroomery team. Please try again in a day or two.

Please use your back button to return to the previous page."

Which is confusing, as I'm listed as in The Shroomery on the website.
