Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Also, Kendrak's figure is probably average for a regular home that consumes ~1kW.
Since you're talking about powering folding gear that most likely sucks several kW, you'd be looking at a much bigger investment to fully power it all. There are many tax incentives (maybe your state has more)...
That's sad to hear. Why not at least CPU fold?
NV has done a good job of pushing a broader array of software to run on CUDA, it's probably not worth blaming PG for finding it easier to get support.
I'm not far from a MC. I'd pick one up and sell it for $260 shipped. That covers gas (it isn't "too" close), in-store tax, and is enough incentive for someone running low on funds :-p
PM if interested. I have good Heatware and would just ask for the same from you.
I spent a couple years banging my head when various clients would have issues (single-core, SMP, vmware, GPU and multi-GPU setups...) and was confused by the many different guides available with different directions for what appeared to be the same clients... but recently discovered the "folding...
Agree and appreciate that at least this much has been accomplished by visiting here. I added your Why we DC thread, as well as some similar threads from OCN. Thanks guys.
I'm going to try to hang out here more often, hopefully some day we will find even more in common. For example, I like...
Not ideal (not so much a two-way interaction nor a daily reminder), but a good start... I'll add it later tonight. :) Thank you for the idea.
Again, also appreciate the other non-sarcastic comments, thank you for those.
Yeah, I saw the other thread you guys already have. Our forum has one that dates back as well. I'm not sure how else to get my point across...... My goal was to create some solidarity between our teams instead of rehashing the same complaints. I've posted this same thread at OCN and am trying to...
Sadly this thread has gone far off topic.
The point here was to move on and focus on all of us as an overarching folding community rather than rehashing the motives or design of the bucks stuff. Rehashing that in this thread accomplishes nothing.
Is anyone actually interested in contributing...
That is true regarding those who visit regularly (a large number). I'm not sure how to more specifically target anyone else though. They probably have to visit at least sometimes to find guides and get help.
We also have had a "why" thread for awhile, the main difference is this gets updated...
Hello [H]!
My name is Matt, I go by warthorn at a few forums, mainly EVGA -- been folding with them since early on.
I'm here to ask you all to take a peek at this thread we're working on over there. The purpose of the thread is to demonstrate that many of us fold for the same reasons...
