Team OverClocked ReMix - Folding@Home



Here's a link directly to the Team OverClocked Remix page on the FAH webpage

For those of you that don't know, FAH stands for Folding @ Home. Full information can be obtained here:
http://folding.stanford.edu/

Basically, FAH is a program that you download and run. It then sits in your taskbar and uses idle CPU power to render protein foldings. Once so many frames have been rendered, the compiled data is then sent back to Stanford so that it can be combined with other renders.

FAH has led to multiple scientific findings, which can be found on the webpage.

Now then, if you have the program, you can join a "Folding Team", where your scores are combined with the scores of other teammates to form a Team Score. Once you have completed one Work Unit, you will be added to Team OverClocked Remix on the FAH website.

Here's the team info:
Team Number: 48303
Team Name: OverClocked Remix


Just open up your configuration in the program and change your team from 0 (which is default) to 48303.

Something to note, once you join a team, all Work Unit credits start going to a new profile based on the team you're on. So you'll get something that looks like this:
http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/...ILVERWOLF%5F87

You can also set the FAH program to use CPU power only when your screensaver comes on, instead of using CPU power all the time. However, I always let my FAH programs run all the time, and I can let it use 100% of my CPU power and still play any game fully maxed with no lag at all. The program also takes a lower priority in the process tree when another program is running. I'm sure my AMD Dual Core has something to do with it too ;)

So then, let's see how must computing power OCR has as a whole.

Yeah, this is styled like SETI@Home, only for (IMO) a much more practical and legitimate purpose. I'm only running on dial-up, but I'll see if I can be of any use in the next few days.

Do you know if we can be part of more than one team? Because I am already in one. But I would'nt mind being part of OC team too.

What will happen is, once you join the OCR team, a new profile will be created with your name, and you can then switch back and forth between teams if you want, but only the team you specified in the program will get the Work Unit credit. But yeah, you can join multiple teams.

Even if you are on dialup, the only time you need an internet connection is when you're recieving the data package to be processed, or when you're sending to processed data back to stanford. Usually those pieces of data aren't larger than 5 megs.

I did a little searching, and it turns out that the program core will always take a low priority. This basically means that you can have the program running in the background all the time, and run other programs without any noticable difference in performance.

Cool. Never tried SETI@home cause I thought it was pointless. But this is actually useful. I'll give it a shot.

As soon as I get my other computer up [needs a copy of XP Pro], I'll have it going 24/7.

As well as being a permaseed for all OC torrents... multiple hard drives FTW!

Being on the OCReMix team sure beats being on the SA team just because my friend suggested it . I recently formatted my compy, so I just re-installed Folding@Home now and am on the OCReMix team.
