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 honorable 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:

I'm in hopefully I don't totally bork this one up like the last one.

A little late to the party but I'm here. Vega 64 is history so It's just a 980Ti this time around :p
 
#17 ·
Realized I left my fan profile on an ultra silent mode, left my 3700x folding @ 95C all night.

Oops.

Oh bugger.

Almost didn't notice at all. By chance I put my hand on top of the case when I was leaning and noticed it was burning hot.

I cut the power and left it off, was on my way out the door for the day.. scores gonna be low this month 😕
 
#23 ·
hehe..

boy do I miss the v64 now. 980Ti is using more power and generating more heat while getting lower score than undervolted v64. Tiem for upgrade.

Well done all.

good job folding team! (I need to throttle back a bit for a few days and get to some "maintenance".) My 2 TXPs have been off line for a month now, hopefully I can get them into the fold in the next couple of weeks.
