Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. They nerfed compute to force you to buy their telsla and quadro cards. Now that mining is huge they have been upping compute on all their cards. So I'll bet that maxwell quadro is a compute beast. EDIT: Woo! Broke 300k!
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Mining is not the reason nvidia is 'upping compute'. It's just part of Moore's law that they are getting progressively more powerful. As is anything.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. It appears you are right. I had assumed that they had unlocked some more DP performance for mining and stuff, but it turns out that has been a published goal since something like 2010.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. So wait, if I download Folding@Home, I can help cure cancer and parkinsons! So going to help, 2 of my gran parents and a student at my school died of leukemia. I am joined the BeamNG Team. My PC has very good ventelation and a powerful CPU. It is 25% done on a WU.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Thanks! It's always great to have more folders!
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Sooo I do have F@H installed on my rig now, but haven't gotten around to getting it setup. Due to reasons and some certain person. But trust me I will get around to it. Most likely.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. @above #awe Anyways, update. Getting a 7870 instead of the 280x. It's $150 less and it's more than powerful enough for my 1280x1024 resolution. Not going to blow away the team, but it should do well.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. She can't be taking up that much of your time now can she? Should do great.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Please welcome a new folder; IBsenoj! If there are any lurker folders out there feel free to post and introduce yourself!
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Welcome IBsenoj! And Bubble, can you make me a 3 million/300 WU sigpic please?
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Just completed my first fold, had to shut down my PC earlier for the night. Resumed at 20% Why aren't I in the team? It says I am but on the page it is not there.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. It should after an hour or so. Yep, I'll try tonight but it might be Friday. (As seen in the custom avvy thread)
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. It is up, I am going to see The Book Thief with some friends. I am leaving my PC on Medium. My PC is always locked, I never shut it down until night. Might as well do something good.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Nah, but all the free time I have otherwise I don't really want to spend on my computer. Rather be out snowmobiling or something
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. I wish I had a snowmobile The only fun I can have with the snow is drifting around corners in my truck (or slamming the pedal too much and doing a 720 in my grandparent's neighborhood xD)
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. Hey at least you can do that. Wait no. At least you have snow.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. I finally get around to setting it up, and it won't connect. Gahh.. (imported from here)
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. I had a similar issue when I had updated F@h too many times. Nuke all the f@h stuff and try using the beta client. Good luck.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. I have run some commands to remove everything and reinstalled, didn't work. There also is not a 'beta' client as such for Ubuntu afaik.
Re: Folding @ Home, Seti @ Home and other DC projects. 99% sure there is. I'll check later. I assume the folding forums don't have anything.
