Im currently crunching for the gimps project but im thinking of moveing one computer to another project. I have a few questions about fah that I was wondering if some people here could answer.
1. not to be a little anail but i cant find a register page for the f@h project on there site is this taken care of by the client.
2. what is a good setup such as more memory the better or ghz = better
3. how does the points system thing work.
 
1 you don't need to register, when your run the client it asks you what name and team you want to contribute too

2 GHz, but you'll be wanting some RAM too, espescially for the higher yeild WU's

3 points are worked out on the size of the work unit that you crunch

Fold on, and be happy :D

 
1) It automaticly registers when you run the Client, so make sure you use the same exact username. Also, make sure you fold for 33! (team 33, the [H]orde.

2) More GHZ is usually better, but memory (size) can also be important if you want to have the bigger units run better (or sometimes at all). Bigger units get you more points, which brings us to 3...

3) Here is a list of the points that you can earn from each protien. I suggest using Electron Microscope 3 to monitor your folding. It will give you a breakdown of time left, points for the protien, etc...

Welcome to the [H]orde!

 
if you use this here setup fold by Unhappy_Mage it will install the console like a standard program when it comes to username it automatically has unhappy_mage in there but then you change it to whatever you want and then from then on you just use the same name as before.
or you could use mine which is william@ahpathfinders.com;)

welcome to the team.
 
If you're interested in the mathematics behind the points, Stanford has a page here that explains their benchmarking process and how they assign the various point totals. If you have any other questions, please let us know, and welcome!
