Join The Gamespot Folding Team!!!!

Added. I would think the name listed for me would be the name I use on PSN which is Von_Loch, as I never chose any when I added myself to the team. I probably rock the bottom of what users in team GS has contributed :P

Edit: Atm a whopping 309 points. horgen123

Hey Great! I see your contribution under Von_Loch.

I like to use this site to track points, team status, etc...

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=32721

At the bottom of the page you can check who's contributing and how many points. It doesn't update as often as other sites, every 3 hours, but it's got a lot of great information. This link is the team page, but you can click on your username to see your personal stats.

[QUOTE="man_hammer"]That's wierd. Are you using the V7 client? F@H and NVidia usually play nice together.Kurushio

I created a new user "Nirgali" and added my new rig to the gamespot team. I've not done any overclocking on it yet. Looks like my current GPU cycle is 8 hours and is 16 hours.Nirgali

Good stuff.

I saw you join the team. You've got a nice solid PPD (Points Per Day) going there.

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=32721

Even though our team has been putting up solid monthly numbers we've fallen 5 slots. We usually hover around 450, but we fell to 455 last month. If we can keep up our contributions, then it looks like we can break the 450 barrier in about 1.7 weeks.

It's tough to do anything put keep position. Every month a few super teams, usually made up on ONE primary contributer, will blast past us putting up over 100,000 PPD.

At any rate, I'm still proud of our contributions. Going by monthly totals:

In January we put up: 270,577

In September we put up: 873,393

That's FN teamwork right there.

That was my profile with Overclock.net. Once I get my hardware moved over, I'll be folding for Gamespot. Again.

Given the PC in his sig it looks like he could absolutely blow everyone currently folding for the team out of the water.

When I started folding for Gamespot in 2009 I used my PS3. I didn't contribute very often because I was using my PS3 a lot to play games and watch Netflix. Most of our team had already stopped folding.

The two mainstays since I started paying attention have always been shakes and CALkulon. I really gotta give it up for those two. They've been pretty consistent for years. I've only started to take folding seriously for about 6 months.

That would be amazing! In February you put up over 2 million points.

I was folding with my PS3 at night until last month. It's just been too hot lately.

The work units (WU) took about 6 hours and were worth about 250 points. So if you leave it running continuously you should be averaging about 1K PPD.

A question I have. Hammer one is for. Sorry, someone's sig put me in yoda mode. How do you generate your signature image?

As for my catching up, I'm not sure if I will be able to as that computer is in my bedroom right now and I don't run it when I'm sleeping and playing video games. Every once in a while there is a mild stutter in FPS with game graphics on high while fah is running. Also, if I forget to open the window when I leave for work in the morning, I'll come home to a very toasty bedroom. When I move, I'll have a better setup where I can run it at night without it keeping me awake.

Nevermind. I figured it out ^_^

There's no pressure to catch up. What I really meant to say is that I'm jealous of your computer.

I know exactly what you mean about the heat. Also, I've been playing a lot of Torchlight 2 so I havent'y been battling Alzheimer's as much as I could be.

I know you already figured it out,but I'll put up a link to the sig image page for anyone else who wants to do it:

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/?nav=IMAGES

...and heck, here are the instructions:

First - You can use the UserID from the EOC Stats (preferred):
- http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/sigs/sigimage.php?u=623304

Second - You can use your User Name + Team ID:
- http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/sigs/sigimage.php?un=man_hammer&t=32721

I am curious to know how my stats will look after just adding an olderAMD Phenom(tm) 9950 Quad-Core Processor 2.60 GHz and an even olderAMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+

Once they fix/allow folding from Keplar GPU (GeForce 600 series) then i'll be able to really put some points on. My i7 does a pretty good job but i dont fold 24/7 and when it gives me the super large projects it really hurts me points wise because of it.Kurushio

Yeah, the tragedy is they don't seem to update the client very often. If memory serves, the client isn't capable of checking for incremental updates. When they do update the client it will be up to us to check the folding website to download it. Again, I'm going off of memory, but I think they said they're working on a client that can check for updates. Who knows how long that will take. I assume they've got their plates pretty full over their at the Stanford Bio-physics & Bio-tech department.

I hear you on the not folding 24/7. The PC I have folding is my only PC. Sure I can fold and surf the internet, but folding while gaming is not an option.

Yeah, I fold overnight. I'll usually let the client run for 8-12 hours in a day. However, if I play a PC game until midnight, then it can cut off a good 2-3 hours from my fodling time.

When I'm working towards a specific goal (my ranking, team ranking, or just a point goal) sometimes I'll let my PC run for much longer.

One thing I've noticed is that GPU points don't seem to degrade with time. If it says 2510 credit, then that's what you'll get. The CPU points will go down the longer you take.

Estimated credit or base credit? My current WU says base credit: 1722.50 while estimated credit is 10352.54. horgen123

If I let a CPU work unit run from start to finish without interuption, then I tend to get the initial estimated credit.

However, if I stop folding for the day in the middle of a WU and start it up the next day there's a time penalty. For the GPU, in my experience, there doesn't seem to be a time penalty.

I guess I'm referring to the estimated credit. There is a formula applied to the base credit that involves time for the CPU. This doesn't seem to apply to the GPU.

Well I only got one computer, so when I am not playing games on it, or sleeping (it's in my bedroom), I do some folding. With a 3570K at 4.4 horgen123
