    Well done all

    This is a good reminder for me to try folding again at some point. Tempted to see what kind of progress I could get if I had all my systems going for a week. 10 cores and 3 GPUs

    Re: Hexus Folding Team hits #150 in the world

    It's the noise, especially in the bedroom that would annoy me. So I was planning on getting everything set up then leaving it for a week or so that I'm away.

    The only down side of that is if the F@H clients die then I can't re-start them.

    My QX6700 earns its keep.

    Now, there's got to be something I can do with all those C2Ds at uni...
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Funnily enough I'm just speccing up some machines will I'll be able to put to good use for the team.

    5x 8 core 2.8ghz Mac Pro's should do the trick.

    Re: Hexus Folding Team hits #150 in the world

    I've gotta rebuild my other box at some point, so I'll get them both folding at some point - just re-done my LAN rig so I'll get that one going this weekend.

    Re: Hexus Folding Team hits #150 in the world

    Now i finally have a decent, stable system i think i'll look into this properly.
    Back in the day i did quite a bit of SETI@home, so i'm up for it in principle.
    I'm commenting on an internet forum. Your facts hold no sway over me.

    Re: Hexus Folding Team hits #150 in the world

    WOO, I fold on a HD4850 for 5+ hours a day. Got to try and get it on the school computers as there are 300+ P4 machiens, which would make a differance.#

    Anyone know any *hacks* to get it past RM versions of XP???....
