Folding@home - Hackforums team. Top 10,000!!

I have created a folding@home team if anyone wants to contribute.

https://stats.foldingathome.org/team/1060014

All you have to do is download the client from here:
https://foldingathome.org/

Once you have installed/run it - simply right click the icon and open advanced viewer.
Then click Configure + choose a name and enter the team number "1060014"

For anyone wanting to know what it is:

Folding@home is a distributed computing project aimed to help scientists develop new therapeutics for a variety of diseases by the means of simulating protein dynamics. This includes the process of protein folding and the movements of proteins, and is reliant on simulations run on volunteers' personal computers.

Keep in mind the team stats will appear after 1 work unit so give it a bit before your username shows up there.

>>If we get enough people on HF to run it, we can get to number one in no time as contributors to solving:
COVID-19
Alzheimer's
Cancer
Huntington's
Parkinson's

and others..

I'll throw one of my 2080Tis into the team.
yes
Is there a minimum hardware requirement?

Nope. No minimum requirements. Just adequate cooling for your rig.

It does run AVX though, so I recommend setting an AVX offset if you're OC'd.
yes
So I can contribute and save humanity with my GPU? (or CPU?)
Good enough for me.

Thank you for contributing, I have just started mine up on my new rig so should catch back up to you soon.
I'll throw in some of my hardware to the mix, mostly the stuff that is always on, it's not any epic hardware but it should be able to do at least something :3

Anything over a few K points per day even on light folding power is PLENTY. It's like if everyone gave a few cents it adds up A LOT.

My average points on my new rig at full power is 552,673 points per day.

Oh god, my craptop gets just over 3.2k points per day...gonna push it over to my TV machine and server too...we'll see what it adds up to...
You must have some rather nice hardware there tho when you get that much ppd tho :3

I'll make a thread on my new PC eventually - rather than just the build thread - waiting till I get some high def pics

Max GPU temp @ 100% = 136f / 58c
Max CPU temp @ 100% = 158f / 70c

Ooooh, that looks really nice, I have seen that case before and I would actually want to build in it too but that doesn't fit my budget...both money wise and space wise :P

I actually lied, let it run for a bit to calculate actual rates - it's around 840,000 points per day.

iLie, 3.3k ppd here and not 3.2k ppd...still doesn't get any better, but hey, it's more than nothing, right xD
Probably not gonna be strong as you guys but I'm helping as much as I can.

Might wanna get some curecoins as well in the process: https://www.cryptobullionpools.com/about
Have a cool signature? hit me up and I might use it.
