    About to be mowed

    I've enjoyed a long stay at position 41, trying my best to eek out position 40. But it looks like sobrien is going to mow me down in a couple of days. Be sure to wave when you pass. :) Fold on.

    [H]ardApe FPP Please

    This might be the time for some [H]ardApe FPP (Front Page Pimpage), directing all to the official thread. Seems newsworthy and might remind current folders to make the switch and (hopefully) end up recruiting some new members. Kyle? Fold on [H]ardApe.

    PS3 Folding Reports

    I received a PS3, 40GB version for Xmas, and I've had it folding 24/7 when I'm not using the Blue-Ray for movies or playing a game. So far, 30 WUs on the PS3. This is one nice machine. According to my son, compared with his 80GB PS3, the 40GB runs "much cooler." Even when folding, it is...

    4GB (2x2GB) RAM for GA-X38-DQ6?

    Looking to get Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6 mb, but have seen some posts saying it is finicky with RAM. Anyone out there running this MB with 2 x 2GB? Suggestions? Issues? Considerations? CPU will be Q6600. Thanks,

    Who is that in the rearview mirror?

    As I "race" along, folding my heart out, I glance in the rearview mirror and I see a blur coming on fast. I don't like giving up position 20 on the [H]orde, and I've tried to delay it by borging 3 new C2Ds. But alas, Xilikon cannot be denied. Nice folding Xilikon. :) jbrew42, you're...

    SMP on borged machines?

    This week our office is getting three new E6600 C2D workstations for the secretaries (2GB RAM). Up to now, I haven't had any multi-processor boxen, and as a folder with Xillicon climbing up my rear end, I was thinking of setting up SMP on them. However, I see that the Beta SMP runs afoul from...

    Gigabyte P35-DS4 ... anyone running this?

    I'm considering the Gigabyte P35-DS4 for a new build. It looks similar to the DQ6 but without the backside CrazyCool that hinders use of many 3rd-party cooling solutions. Anyone using the P35-DS4? CPU? Memory? Cooler? Reliability? Performance? Thanks. :)

    Cooler for Gigabyte P35-DQ6?

    I'm building a new system, and I have pretty much decided on the Gigabyte P35-DQ6. That MB has the "Crazy Cool" backplate, which I understand can be removed to install a hefty CPU cooler, replacing the Intel stock one. I don't relish tampering with hardware while still under warrenty. My...

    Protein 3040

    I've got a 3040 on my 2Ghz Semperon doing frames at ~ 23:48 per. There's no information on points yet, and I've alerted Stanford. Seems the administrator of that series hasn't posted the parameters yet. :rolleyes: My first 3040 ended in an EUE on my stable system, but this one is doing OK...

    UD with Crappers?

    I have a few crappers that had to give up folding when the Timeless WUs disappeared. I'm wondering if UD can use their cycles. Any idea what the minimum boxen specs are for UD?

    [H]oly Crap

    I just noticed that newcomer Zim01 is predicted to pass me in just 62 days. :eek: The good news is that Zim01 is on Team 33 and helping the [H]orde. :) The bad news is that I'm feeling less [H]ard. :( But the good news outweighs the bad! Fold on.

    Protein Folding makes PBS News Hour

    I was watching the PBS News Hour tonight and there was a touching and informative piece on Alzheimers. Scientists talked about the problem being due to proteins folding incorrectly. I think that is the first time I have heard "protein folding" on the TV. :cool: They talked about various...

    Anyone folding on a new Mac?

    I have a potential borg. :) It's one of the new Intel-based Macs that can run Windows concurrently with MacOS. The owner is willing to fold, and I have two questions: 1) Do I install the console client within Windows or the Mac client in MacOS? 2) The boxen is all in the monitor...

    PPD UP at Last!

    PPD UP at last! I have been stuck folding p761s for the past while on my home boxen, giving me less than 100 PPD. Today I checked EM3 and p2098 is giving me more than double what I've been yielding. Give me more of p2098... :D

    It only looks like I've quit folding

    Damn! My point production today (so far) is 618 points. I usually have over 1K by the time I check it in the early morning. I had a number of boxen fail to get WUs for a couple of days, and now they all seem to be crunching s.l.o.w. proteins. Anyway, I'm looking for a "makeup" in points tomorrow...

    Server Problems?

    Is anyone else having Stanford server problems? My farm is having problems picking up new WUs so I have a bunch of boxen idle. :( I checked the Stanford site for the status of the server that my boxen are hitting (171.65.103.149), and it appears OK. I'm wondering if there is something...

    Intel HyperThread Question

    I was checking one of my borgs today, an Intel 2.8 with hyperthreading. When I went into the Task Manager to see if it was running 100%, I noticed that it was stable at 50%. :confused: Is this correct?

    Q: What MB, CPU recommended?

    My home workstation (Asus A7N8X; AMD 2600+; SATA Raid, ATi 9600) got fried during a wind storm power outage. :( Techs say MB, memory, and one hard drive are gone, and the CPU is suspect. They are suggesting a new machine rather than replacing parts. I'm looking for suggestions on what to...

    This doesn't look good...

    Go for Google

    If you check this link http://fahstats.com/tr.php?t=33 you will note that, as of now (1/23/2006 6:00pm pst), the [H]orde are predicted to pass Google in 1002 days (October 22, 2008). The [H]orde can fold proteins better than that. Let's go for Google as we leave the Aussies in our...

    New Point System Coming from Stanford

    The reference machine for points is about to change, according to Stanford (http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=7665). Future Tinkers are going to go up in point values to correspond to the time it takes on the new benchmark standard (P4 2.8).

    Borg foiled temporarily

    A few days ago, at the request of a person in an adjacent office, I borged their new 2.0 P4 used by students to surf the net and to print out resumes and such. Yesterday I went back to make sure all was well. I had used the Graphical Client and the little icon was in the task bar. But...
