How many of you Fold?

Logla · Apr 15, 2005, 11:37 PM

I was just wondering, how many of our members contribute to the Folding@Home project?

This is something I have recently gotten into doing and I have one basic machine which sits quietly under my desk doing nothing but folding.

my machine is too loud to leave on 24/7, and it's in my bedroom, otherwise I would.

I use to but my room gets to hot and loud if @ 100% cpu usage all day long. After i get a new system, my current pc will fold, and I will be using a 2600+ to fold as well as soon as i get a new mobo.

This does deserve a bump. I used to fold and had lots of fun with it. I stoped because I really never spent any time on there forums and it just sort of faded out for me. But I got up to arround 50,000 points durring the time I was doing it. If Driver Heaven ever starts a folding team I will be all over it.
