Folding@Home: CF Official Discussion Thread - Computer Forum

I got Selfish :'(

i set up my own team to see how much muscle i could accumulate between all the pc's i fix up, didnt get very far though....

I guess i should support the home team

expect the following computers within 2 weeks:

AMD64 X2 AM2 4200+ -runs 24/7
AMD64 3200+ -family use
AMD 2200+ -family use
P3 0.75 Ghz -laptop, used at college etc
Celeron 2.6 Ghz -laptop, runs like

, doubt it will be any use. XP + firewall + anti virus is a resource hog (and i'm not allowed to touch it with kubuntu

)

and 2 computers of *unknown* specs at some point (but i know there fairly recent)

Nice

Explains why I'm dropping in the team stats...*doh*

Impotence · 06-01-2007, 10:51 PM

I Wonder if my college would consider running f@h... my high school didn't think the benefits of a hundred or so powerful machines doing cruelty free research outweighed the possible work of doing it.

Might have a chance with the college, tho i doubt i can get them to run under my username

lol

Just be careful about getting permission. A few years ago, someone on Anandtech's SETI team (if I remember the team right) got in a load of legal trouble when he ran the program on a bunch of his company's boxes...without permission. Fold, sure, just don't get yourself in hot water.

Impotence · 07-01-2007, 08:32 PM

will do,

Off Topic:

I think they might let me set up a small cluster (one room of pc's) on a separate network (without net access, or access to anything outside the room!) to play around with for a short while if i ask nicely...

Could be quite interesting, was thinking about using clusterknoppix but it hasnt been updated in awhile :/

Impotence · 08-01-2007, 03:07 AM

Just wondering,

How can i be sure that F@H is running on both core's of my AMD X2?

Swansen · 08-01-2007, 02:41 PM

well, there no for sure way, but a good measure is if there %100 cpu usage

Impotence · 11-01-2007, 03:30 PM

Dsitribution stands as follows (i havnt had a day spare + at home since just after new year, so its taking awhile!)

Done
AMD64 X2 AM2 4200+, 1GB DDR2 (Done, but wont be running 24/7 for the next few weeks)
AMD Sempron 64 3000+, 0.5GB DDR (This is a friends famaily machine which i keep running for them

)

Pending
AMD64 3200+, 0.5GB DDR (Monday)
AMD 2200+, 256MB DDR (Monday)
P3 0.75 Ghz, 0.5GB (Monday?)
Celeron 2.6 Ghz, 0.25GB (Unknown, when it gets more RAM! XP is a resource hog)

there are 4 more possible machines coming, 2 are friends machines which i maintain & 2 are machines which i have been asked if i can build.

Swansen · 11-01-2007, 03:33 PM

Im putting F@H on all the machines i own, and friends and famaily machines with permission. With the doantion of spare processing on friends machines i think i can get somewhere between 15-20GHz.

I have permission from the owners to be running F@H under my username ( Impotence[z365] ) on all of the machines contibuting to the hwf team.

Swansen · 11-01-2007, 10:26 PM

oh gotcha, for a sec, i thought you were just putting it on their computers without their knowledge. Yeah, that should be really cool. Guess we'll see ya climbin the stats board
