Join the TPU F@H Team as we enter the Top 100 Teams in the World

BUCK NASTY · Jan 31, 2009, 12:41 AM

Come join the TPU F@H Team as we enter the upper echelon of Folding Teams. We are poised to enter the Top 100 Teams in the next few weeks. You can fold as little or as much as you want. You can still game and surf while running the clients. Works for both Nvidia or ATI as well as CPU. Help TPU aim for the Top 20 in 2009. Just post in the F@H thread and we will help you get started.

Thanks Castiel! Just make sure you have permission to run F@H on the work rigs.

new cooling system for my rig... those 260's are now 24/7

WhiteLotus · Jan 31, 2009, 01:20 AM

good job. i recently added an SMP cleit and saw my ppd raise 1000+ im only at 3000-4000 but it all adds up!!!!!

wolf · Jan 31, 2009, 01:22 AM

i will if its simple enough to get both GPU's folding on my GTX295, last time i was folding, multi gpu was a tad complicated.

phanbuey · Jan 31, 2009, 01:29 AM

you need a second monitor cable and you need to disble SLI and enable a second display. Not too hard, I can walk you through it. That gtx 295 is such a beastly card... im a bit jealous.

You will be in the top 40 TPU within a week.

Erm.... No nvidia video card = fail.F@H

I'm considering building a demo machine for work though to sell a few more gaming systems, maybe I'll sli a few GTX 260's on an I7 rig and run it 24/7.

Folding@home rules and policies

Run Folding@home only on authorized computers

Run Folding@home only on computers that you own, or for which you have obtained the owner's permission. Some companies and schools have policies that prohibit using their computers for projects such as Folding@home.

Ineed.... All my systems at home are running ATI cards currently....

But I do handle Nvidia mainly at the shop. I got a guy to run F@H on his SLI GTX280 XXX's and Q9650 when he isn't busy

Funny it was built around him using CS4... He doesn't game one bit...

try a program called input director, its about 2mb and free.

lets you control multiple pc's over lan with one keyboard and mouse, works just like a single computer w/multi monitor setup.

thank you.

that will make it easy for me when i get the 2nd rig folding again. I wish i still had the P4s (had 2 s478 P4s one at 2.7ghz other at 3.3ghz killed them both with ~1.7v) and the P3s(not much PPD but better then none)
