100_PERCENT ROEMER Posted May 24, 2007 Author Posted May 24, 2007 Time for another bump! Oh yeah, we broke the 1,000,000 point mark a little bit ago. KEEP IT UP!! Quote
K999 Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 And I would also like to congratulate myself on being the 1st one to break the 100,000 points mark. Quote
djpretzel Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 And I would also like to congratulate myself on being the 1st one to break the 100,000 points mark. Awesome. How many boxes for how long, out of curiosity? Any GPUs? Quote
K999 Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Just one core2duo (6600) since last November that was on 24 hours a day. Although I was in this team since beginning I had only contributed about 4000 points in the span of one year with my original 800Mhz computer. So it was really with this new machine that I was able to contribute the most. Quote
100_PERCENT ROEMER Posted May 28, 2007 Author Posted May 28, 2007 Kudos to you for contributing so much to Team OCR! Seriously, I'll mail you a taco or something one of these days, heh heh. Quote
BlueMage Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Time to take the SMP version for a spin, and see what a quad-core can really accomplish in this thing. Quote
Drack Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Time to take the SMP version for a spin, and see what a quad-core can really accomplish in this thing. The SMP version didn't work for me. On my quad core I just installed the regular version in 4 different directories and gave them unique machine IDs in the config files. Since they aren't threaded each one gets a core, so using 4 of them maxes the cpu of the entire system. Quote
K999 Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Kusabi, Zpeter, and Drack are churning points at an incredible rate. It's probably because of them that our team rank has once again started to climb up. Quote
Drack Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Heh, Kusabi is a friend of mine. He's not even a member of the OCR forums (yet). He's folding at a ridiculous rate with 2 PS3s, a Powermac G5, at least one ATi GPU, and a few other computers all folding pretty much all the time. Beats my quad core beast pretty badly, but we're all on the same team here Think I'll sneak F@H onto my work computer Quote
100_PERCENT ROEMER Posted July 11, 2007 Author Posted July 11, 2007 Roster updated! And seriously, guys you're doing AWESOME! Quote
K999 Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 So with PS3 price drop I went ahead and purchased one for myself. I wasn't originally planning to get a PS3 this year since the type of games I like aren't out yet. But since it runs F@H, I went ahead get got one. PS3 runs and finishes with protien stimulations at 1/3rd the time that my computer does. Quite fast. Oh, and some people have now started utilizing this project as a business. This website offers computers for hire to people so that people can get points boost to themselves or their teams. Kind of strange. But in the end, it's still contributing to science. Quote
Kusabi Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Heh, Kusabi is a friend of mine. He's not even a member of the OCR forums (yet). He's folding at a ridiculous rate with 2 PS3s, a Powermac G5, at least one ATi GPU, and a few other computers all folding pretty much all the time. Beats my quad core beast pretty badly, but we're all on the same team here Think I'll sneak F@H onto my work computer Heh. I didn't even get a chance to build my last computer. I do like your Hydra, though. But I'll set the record straight. What I've managed to get folding@home running on: 1 x Sony Playstation 3 (3.2 GHz Cell) 1 x Apple PowerMac G5 Quad (2x PowerPC 970MP (Dual Core) @ 2.5 GHz/core) and then a few generic PCs 1 x AMD Athlon64 4200 X2 1 x 3.0GHz P4 Northwood 2 x Core 2 Duo 6600 and of course, I'm sure I'm forgetting something...ah the joys of having access to the domain administrator's account.

Effef Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 I would start contributing again, but both my desktops are broken. Once I get a new Socket 939 motherboard, Ill set my OC'd 2.4ghz Opteron 144 to fold all the time. Quote
100_PERCENT ROEMER Posted August 12, 2007 Author Posted August 12, 2007 So, Where's my taco? Haha, give me an address to send it to, and I'll send ya a taco for real. No guarantees on its freshness though! Quote
K999 Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Haha, give me an address to send it to, and I'll send ya a taco for real. No guarantees on its freshness though! On second thought, let me reach one million mark, and for that let me upgrade from getting a taco to getting Chalupa supreme. It's so tasty. Quote
Arek the Absolute Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Heh. I didn't even get a chance to build my last computer. I do like your Hydra, though.But I'll set the record straight. What I've managed to get folding@home running on: 1 x Sony Playstation 3 (3.2 GHz Cell) 1 x Apple PowerMac G5 Quad (2x PowerPC 970MP (Dual Core) @ 2.5 GHz/core) and then a few generic PCs 1 x AMD Athlon64 4200 X2 1 x 3.0GHz P4 Northwood 2 x Core 2 Duo 6600 and of course, I'm sure I'm forgetting something...ah the joys of having access to the domain administrator's account. You sir are amazing. Quote
K999 Posted September 28, 2007 Posted September 28, 2007 Rank 507. Keep up the good work guys/gals. Quote
Effef Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 Damn i need some money. Somebody loan me a decent socket 939 mobo! In other news, I will be building a brand new computer near christmas to fold with. Quote
Murmeli Walan Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 I can only do so much (Takes me about two days to finish a WU, and I do next to nothing when I'm playing WoW), but I'm still chugging along with F@H. Every little bit helps. Quote
K999 Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Woot, I've exceeded 200,000 points! I'm about to do the same. Quote
Kusabi Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Good news, everyone! We have made it into the top 500 teams. (Number 497 at 4:30PM EST) WOOT! Quote
Drack Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 And Kusabi broke 300k points, heh. Great work everyone to get to the top 500! Quote
