What is the Foldathon?

Every month we hold a Foldathon, or FAT for short. The FAT is a mad dash over a 2 day period where we fold on as much hardware as we can get our grubby fingers on and try to amass the most points possible. It is winner takes all. Okay, that's not true, but if you're lucky you might win something, probably not, but you will have made a honourable contribution to the science behind Folding@Home. What is that science you're probably asking, have a gander over here to learn more. All units crunched for team 37726 count, even if you can only manage to complete one unit, but if you're already a folder, there's no excuse for not folding for the full 48 hours 



How it works:

Sign-up and run Folding@home for Overclock.net (team number: 37726) during the specified times. Those who Fold will be entered into a drawing to win the prizes listed below. If you still don't know what Folding@home is or need some help getting started, feel free to post here, make a thread in the Overclock.net Folding@Home Team forum or check this guide: FAHControl v7 for both CPU and GPU

 
 
SIGN UP HERE
 
You can verify whether or not you're signed up by looking for your name here in the member list.
 
If you don't submit any points during a Foldathon, you will be removed from the list, this is to push for active participation in the event.
 
You are required to re-sign up each month for the prize option, this is to hopefully push a little more active participation in the event as well and prevent prizes going to people who aren't active in the community.
 
 
When:
 
12:00EST / 16:00UTC Monday July 17th - 12:00EST / 16:00UTC Wednesday May 19th 2017
 
Countdown to start

After accepting a prize in any given monthly folding event, members will sit out two events before becoming eligible for prizes again. This is to hopefully spread the kindly donated items amongst the OCN folding community more fairly.

I held off selling my 1070 this weekend so I could keep it in for this Foldathon. Hopefully the buyer is still interested next week.

The things I do for folding...

Wait, you're complaining about it being 26-27C? That's not too bad, by my standards. The aircon in my father's Merc is set to 26 all-round in the summer.

Keep in mind though, we don't have aircon so when folding in the summer it can get well into the 30s (usually 30-32 outside). Also, there are too many papers all around, so no fans either.

In! I'll try and run my 980 Ti for part/most of it again.
