Ok, been searching around and looking on the site, and kinda wanting to figure out where or how should I request my "points"? the page says I have 2,177,417 (i guess that is good?) and would like to know what to do to request those, or will those automatically get added to my account?

    minimum points per tier are as follows and are per month
    Tier 1 : 10m (10,000,000) (5 EVGA Bucks)
    Tier 2 : 30m (30,000,000) (5 EVGA Bucks)

    do the points reset at the end of each month? or do they roll over, I did read up on that and it seems a bit unclear exactly as to if they roll over, if they do then I suppose all is fine, I will keep going, but if they reset to 0 and I can't get past 2m to "collect" or meet the "collection" threshold then honestly dedicating my servers to full 24x7 folding is counter productive as I have other things the hardware could be used for like productive work that is helping my business, anyways if someone would elaborate on that I would greatly appreciate it!

    It seems Very Clear ... Every Month they Reset
     
    https://www.evga.com/folding/promo.asp
    (excerpt)
    (under) --> How it works:
     
    "At midnight of the first day of every month we will take a capture of your points. Your count will then reset the following month so you will need to earn 10,000,000 or 30,000,000 more points that month to get more EVGA bucks"

    That is what I assume, I would think they would have a way to initiate the request so you can "bank" them then once you request enough they just convert over, but if they are "loose it unless you hit your threshold" type deal then yea not worth the effort of running my servers 24x7 and running up the electric bill for no gain or any thing like that, as I can just put my work effort towards other teams and still achieve the good feelz of knowing I am helping combat diseases and what not...

    GPUs .. use Much less power per PPD
     
    It is Not about making Money .... If you do Choose to Fold .. there can be a Rewards
     
    I've spent ~ $250- 300 per Month to get 500 Million points out of 10 GPUs
