Thanks guys, I have started :) its nice to have a system running for good cause (if it doesn't crash like Macs always do...)

lightingcrash... are you really The Founder Of The Folding Team? :). (I did some digging at forums and profiles) There is very much a need to A Homecoming-party :fact: :woot: :toast: :party3:
:welcome: to all new folders... :wtf: Your presence at forums would be also highly welcomed :toast: There is some deserting for time to time...:( :D
Hi, I'm imagining this has probably been asked a million times, so I figure once more won't hurt :)
I'm looking to contribute some of my computing power, and am looking for something that'd make the most use. I see that fah has an smp version. But I'm curious if it supports sse2/3? I recall skimming around and seeing something about how deadlines are assigned with a p4 2.8 with sse2 disabled. Does this mean fah has the optimizations in place for sse2? I was running rosetta, but noticed that it doesn't carry any sse optimizations, although I saw links to such, although they're all seemingly dead links now.
The SMP versions are a slightly different setup, and I think the benchmarks come from an Intel Mac for those - have a little sift through http://forum.folding-community.org/forums.html for more information. I do see the message 'Extra SSE boost OK' when I fire up the clients, but I can't remember if it's plain SSE or SSE2/3. The Rosetta optimisations were regarded by some as a hack/cheat because they altered the points benchmark, but there's plenty already been written on that subject, and it's a BOINC-based project, whereas f@h has it's own clients :)
I hope Folding@home becomes your project, it has its quirks but it's a good project & will work your CPU hard, there are a few ways to run it on a rig like yours, so weigh up the options. :up:
Welcome couppi & nice production too :up:Quote:

I'm in, too.:toast:
I was really addicted to F@H a few years ago but you know... You grow up and real life kicks you in the arse.
Having a 1950pro just for browsing and reading emails is just plain stupid.:slap:
Tell me... the X19xx vgas are really that great at F@H as I've been reading?
Welcome to F@H :toast:Quote:

I do not know about gpu folding, but can guess the coming R600 (preferably R650) would kick arse (again ;)) with some quad core and SMP-client. That's my plan I had... then I couldn't wait and bought 8800GTS.
Oh well... with only dual core... I'm happy with SMP-client. I believe scientists are too.
just joined console mode folding
I guess I'll join too. I've been doing some personal folding for past year, so it's about time I join a team.
Edit: Finally my first post. :D
:welcome: kaosInc. glad to have you with us :toast:
I use to fold 4 another forum but that place *cough* amd forums *cough* turned into a s***hole :rolleyes: so here I am. Just installed my wireless router and got my ps3:D up and running. Later this year after a upgrade my comp will once again start to fold:rocker:
glad to have you here with us chillman, I'll bet that PS3 will put out some decent numbers :up:
Welcome chillman :D :wave:
Right now i will be running 2 machines 24/7, and maybe a third. This is my first time folding so.... lets fold.
Big welcome to all the new Folders!!!! :welcome:
I just downloaded the client and set it up :)
I am running this on my temporary comp, until I build my new gaming machine.
Specs:
E6300, Intel DG965WH, 4gb DDR2 667, 2 Raptor X's in Raid 0, 6600GT/128mb.
:welcome: A101Sugar
Do not forget C2Qs (for SMP-client) when you're choosing new parts ;)
Welcome A101Sugar, not a bad temporary machine there - I look forward to seeing the specs of the permanent machine :D

First of all... welcome Don Dan.
Secondly: do you've configured your f@h exactly like in the setup guide?
Hi and thanks for your fast reply. I just deleted every rest of F@H and installed the console version again, and configured it according to the post. I will now make a restart and then report again!
I downloaded FaHMon to monitor the clients, but I'm not sure if I typed in the address of the clients correctly, because both clients are marked yellow/ orange. However, my computer is running at a load of 90 % and the taskmanager that two FahCore_78.exe are running.
