Folding@Home: CF Official Discussion Thread

Well whatever.

I should just get all the PCs in my school working on this...that would be about 300 Athlon 64s (3000s and 3200s, mainly) all working for Bobo 24/7....:D

Wow, most of my schools PC's are 350Mhz Pentium 2's with 128MB RAM. They have about 100 2.4GHz Celeron w/ 256MB now though.

You should offer to spend your holidays overclocking them all, then I'm sure they'd let you use a couple... :P

Lol....the tech people in my school probably don't even know what overclocking is....:rolleyes:

And I would love to do that. Seriously...to get to play with a couple hundred computers.

Actually, I might be able to just install it on the mainframe in the district office, then I could use all the computers in the whole district...wow that would be cool

Ok bobo, snap out of the daydream *pinches self*

Anyway...i guess I'll be stuck with 2 computers for now, cause the rest of mine aren't anywhere near fast enough. Even a PIII 1GHz took about 4 times as long as my A64s do.
 
Hmm

Great to see some activity and discussion going on. Great job to all taking place and to all the newcomers. We rock!

Definitely nice to see that we've added a few people and that we're still improving our team ranking. By the way, is there anyway that we could get an overall team ranking graph on the "about" page? I think that would be interesting to plot.
 
Yes, just to echo Jan's sentiments, I'm thrilled with the progress we're making.

And since I seem to be Mr Statistics at the moment lol, I'll just say in just two and a half weeks we've increased our team score by 22%. That huge. Well done. :D

And Yeti, yes I can certainly arrange that. Although do you think it'll be more interesting or depressing? :P

LOL, well I was hoping it would be interesting and uplifting, definitely don't need any more depressing things in my life :P
 
How do you top three get so much done in so little? I guess I'm limited because I can only use my Pentium D during the day, even though the little 1GHz P3 is on 24/7

This has been peiced together from the various updates posted in this thread. I'll improve its look, and add it to the section tomorrow. Right now it's past my bed time lol. Needless to say, our progress up the ranks is slowing, eventually we'll reach a plateau unless the new members are able to make a big enough dent. Reason enough to recruit new bodies! :D
 
Looks like the team has grown a lot over the last week or so... It's great to see that the team is closing in on 40 members! Lots of new help to push our team rank even higher. At the risk of sounding like a cheerleader, let's go team!!! :D
 
I'm starting to fold some more, but I'm only using a Sempron so it will takie quite a while to finish some WU's.
 
That's great news, Goeff. I've been hoping you'd join back in, and don't worry about just using a Sempron, there are people folding with much less, I'm sure. Every little helps.
