It looks like my folding days are over for a while.

I'll start back up when I can but I have to shut everything down while I'm away.

Firefly · 12th Jul 2008, 05:46 PM

I'm running both the 6.12beta8 gpu and the 6.10 cpu.

Sorry Guys, I had to quit the folding when I was bumped and layed off two weeks ago. Damn Union seniority system!

Good luck catching up to me

ZenPirate · 17th Jul 2008, 05:32 AM

^ I'm not catching up anytime soon. My electric company just bumped my "budget" up to $160 per month, even though I used *less* electricity than last year....

Firefly · 2nd Aug 2008, 03:54 AM

new cores (6.20s) have been released. seem smoother and quicker.

Firefly · 2nd Aug 2008, 05:52 AM

is anyone still folding?

Wanna switch bills?

ZenPirate · 15th Aug 2008, 05:17 AM

^ Most likely not.

yesterday they raised our rates again, so up another $20 per month it goes.... Get this, the put on for another rate increase already for "delivery costs".

OO7MIKE · 20th Aug 2008, 02:10 PM

I hate it when power companies monopolize and take advantage of you by increasing rates.

Ask the to wave the delivery charge. Seriously it may seem like a stupid question but sometimes it works... like calling your credit card companies and asking them to reduce your interest rate. They are more than happy to accommodate.

Also it may be time to invest in some solar panels and rig them up to your power grid. Power companies like this. In fact if you are generating enough power they will pay you for what ever you are not using. Sounds crazy... but seriously.. google it.

Firefly · 20th Aug 2008, 02:37 PM

This is true, i've even heard of power companies buying electricity off people.

toniglandyl · 23rd Aug 2008, 09:04 AM

just installed the nvidia GPU client.

Firefly · 6th Sep 2008, 04:45 PM

i've noticed. What hardware you running?

toniglandyl · 6th Sep 2008, 11:25 PM

E8400, 8800GT, 5gigs of ram.
oh and not running the display really improves performance.

Firefly · 7th Sep 2008, 02:07 AM

ahh. I run other stuff as well. i'm running the gpu on two 86gt plus the standard cpu f@h.

Snaps_Provolone · 16th Sep 2008, 11:01 AM

I too stopped doing these things when my electric bills became unbearable. I just can't justify the costs.

toniglandyl · 16th Sep 2008, 11:19 AM

I just make it run when I'm on the computer. I'm usually surfing on the internet, so I could spare some power.
I do have it off when I'm off the computer, and the PC is always off during business days.

shoptroll · 16th Sep 2008, 12:00 PM

I will probably be trying this again this week. I stopped a while ago because the graphical client was crashing on my 6600GT so hopefully the new standard client or the NVIDIA core one won't crash on me.

Rambowjo · 16th Sep 2008, 01:29 PM

I just downloaded the GPU2 client for my nVidia 260GTX. Also downloaded the CPU one for my E6750, since I formatted and didn't have the client anymore. See you all at the top.
