Hey all! I have been folding on and off, the last time I did any was back in April. I was folding under team 0, but then I learned about EVGA's efforts and how they are the #1 collaborative folding team, and I wanted in! I have an EVGA gtx 460 SE, so it seemed fitting to join here. After realizing I couldn't bitcoin mine worth crap on nVidia cards, I decided to put that computing power to good use for science instead. Hope to have a great time here, fold on, brothers!

Not new to EVGA nor folding but I am returning to help out here where I can. I had to stop folding for the team cause it was more stress than my main rig could handle 24/7. Circumstances have changed and now have peiced together a new main rig and my old rig is available for folding. Right now I can't promise a 24/7 commitment but will try an overnight 10/7 if that helps any.
Folding rig:
ASUS M4A78T-E motherboard
Phenom II x4 BE965 @ 3.7GHz w/ stock HSF
w/ onboard graphics only
8GB of Patriot Signature memory @1600 (worst investment ever but helps the pc boot)
3x RAID0 SATA Green HDD
Main rig:
ASUS Crosshair V Formula motherboard
FX-8120 @ 4.5GHz w/ Corsair H80
ATI HD4850 (my dinosaur which I hope to replace w/ 560ti 448 in next couple months)
8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1866 (2nd worst investment ever)
Corsair Force 3 120GB
Please direct me in any specific way I need to help and if there are any benefits I need to be aware of. Otherwise thanks for welcoming me back to the team.

Version v7 the latest folding@home client would be your best & easiest setup as it will detect your hardware auto and will set up a client for each piece that can fold with in that system. Use your forum name & team # 111065 in the setup process. You'll want to get a passkey for bonus points.

Thanks for the info. I am kinda a veteran at folding. Right now I am using v6 on vm linux for my Phenom II BE965 and my main rig, fx-8120, is folding v6 on native Linux Mint. Last month I was getting lots of cheap work unit for both rigs on v7. They were barely giving my 8120 any points. 12 to 15kppd. I already had v6 setup on the fx-8120 so started it up and started raking in 25kppd. I did the same with my BE965 which was actually performing the same ppd totals as my 8120 on v7 but I switched it to v6 also and been avg 10kppd. ATI HD 4850 won't fold on my main rig under native linux and even if it would ppd would be nothing. I am hoping to invest in a 560ti 448 in the near future (couple months from now probably). BE965 rig only has onboard video. Presently when both rigs fold as is I get a modest 35kppd. But I can only do that on special occasions as my main rig is not ready for 24/7. My BE965 can probably do 12/7 at the most w/ stock cooling. I am trying to decide whether to break out my custom fix H80 for the old BE965 but it had a past with leaks. AFAIK I should have stopped the leaks. I just got to be brave enough to run it again. Anything I need to do in order to further contribute to the EVGA cause let me know.

Hi guys Im new to the forums I wanted to know what I'd need to start folding for you guys?
I currently have AMD Graphics but wanted to fold on my 3570k
Welcome to the forum! There are basically two utilities that beginning Folders use ("FAH Tracker V2" and Stanford's Folding Utility known as "V7"). It's your choice as to which utility you think would be easier for you to use and both are excellent. FAH Tracker V2 setup guide: http://forums.evga.com/tm.aspx?m=219556 Stanford's V7 utility and guide: http://folding.stanford.edu/English/WinGuide There are basically (2) types of Folding, CPU (SMP) Folding and GPU Folding. Both of the client utilities that I shared above will allow Folding on CPU and GPU. With GPU Folding, most people Fold on NVidia GPUs, but some AMD GPUs also work with Folding. I don't have any AMD GPUs so my knowledge there is limited, but we have members here that do know all about AMD GPU Folding. Here is a thread from over at the Stanford Folding Forum where the "white list" of GPUs that can Fold are discussed. http://foldingforum.org/v...5e6e9a0766f6c5b1122e01 If you plan to Fold for our Team here at EVGA, a couple of things would be advisable right off the bat. - Have your User Name here in the EVGA Forums match the name that you choose as a Folding Name with Stanford. This helps because it allows you to be recognized/tracked on our Team for your production points and you can qualify for EVGA's "EVGA-bucks" program that they offer to Folders on our team.
- Apply for a Folding "Passkey" at Standford. The Passkey is your unique identifier that is useful for user security and also for gaining access to the Quick Return Bonus program for Folding work performed on your CPU.
Feel free to post back here or over in the Main Folding Forum with more questions as you go along. It can feel a bit challenging when you first start Folding, but it is relatively easy to do once you get your feet wet.

Hey Ryno, Do you know which client he is using? As far as I know he shouldn't have to add anything on a Fermi card. Rynoman2k3

Thanks guys for your input... Sorry have not folded very much yesterday nor today because I'm preparing my computer to put Windows 8 on it probably it will consume a little lower than W7 and also because it seems Aero sometimes takes up to 5000 PPD from my cards and one time it took about 15k ... not sure why so I'll try windows 8 and leave some feedback maybe later or tomorrow ;)
