Don't you think the rich and the governments have supercomputers enough to tackle this problem in a day ???? Yah fools always.
Grid computing can provide more computing power than supercomputers.

Yeah, I get that as well. It's odd to see them running out of work units but shows how PC users have stepped up.

Nothing like crisis to bring more into the folding *pun* intended, I let my GPU fold for about 6~8 hours day. not a much as some people folding with 32 core cpu and titan gpus

Just be patient mine wouldn't fold at first either on my PC's but they eventually find and download a work unit.

This is driving me crazy. I want to fold.....but my GPU gets too hot.... Next card will definitely not use a reference cooler.....

Dude, you have a print screen button, and you can paste it into paint and crop it if you want. Try that next time rather then sending very large, horrible quality phone taken pictures of your screen.
Every one has an opinion.... embedded links obviously didn't work guy.... Thanks though!

Awesome news! It's great to hear the first protein to help fight this Covid-19 Flu Virus has been found. I'd like to buy toilet paper again! ( J/K trying to lighten the mood!) Most importantly, I would like people to get through this first and foremost! It's been a long time since I posted and have been running Folding @ Home since Hilbert posted! It's good to see this 2950x and 2080 Ti cranking out these numbers! This thing is flying through these workloads. Thanks for the heads up! We just surpassed the worlds most powerful super computer by two times!? We just made history here!

So freaking excited now!!! And glad to be contributing to everything and the Guru3D team!!
Yeah this is insane! I hope we find more proteins to fight this thing! It's really cool to be part of this. So far at 175,130 points and climbing! I'm just glad to put this 2080 Ti and 2950X Threadripper to use. So far it's been running and running. 100% load and I'm impressed with the low temps. Never stressed it like this before. 58C with 4.1ghz on all cores! Oh by the way. It has been a good while since I posted again, but I have been visiting almost every day still keeping up with the reviews etc.

Stanford appears to be lacking sufficient bandwidth to handle all of the people that have joined F@H the last couple weeks. Apparently Linus from LTT has offered to give Stanford a hand.... Skip ahead to about 8:20 in the video..... [youtube=KU4qOebhkfs] Skip ahead to about 8:20 in the video.....

Not entirely certain what you're trying to say. However it looks like from your later posts you're now sending photos with good quality since they aren't taken with a camera, so that's good.

I was wondering why the queue was empty at times... great problem for them to have lol. Regarding Linus' heat during that demo, while my computer is not chewing through 1000 watts, it does throw some heat. I have it set up in the basement, with wires coming up through the floor into the living room. It keeps the basement warm by itself... not like 80° or anything, but cozy enough for my mom to quilt down there with no other heating (while it's in the 30s outside).

Get a passkey for QRB (quick return bonus) to work. You'd easily do 1.9-2.1 million on that 2080Ti alone.

Not 100% accurate, but here is how I understand it. Folding@home purpose is to understand how protein behaves (folds). Protein misbehaving causing diseases. Folding@Home simulates how protein behaves and with enough data, it can be used for research purposes to create drugs to fight specific disease or other cases to fight and prevent it. https://foldingathome.org/covid19/ https://foldingathome.org/about/ https://foldingathome.org/2020/03/10/covid19-update/

Quality was always there. Camera is just to good for what I was using it for. Maybe you need a better monitor.

....no. Quality is never there when taking a picture from a phone of any screen, especially when you can get a near perfect quality from a print screen. I don't understand the reasons for your reply. What i state are facts but you're acting like this is some sort of debate. https://i.imgur.com/ySGiGXb.jpg Theres no quality there, thats from your phone-taken picture, not even zoomed up since its such a large unnecessary picture. But again, i'm not sure why you seem to think this is some sort of debate, it's not. You were doing something unnecessarily when there are easier and better options, so i told you about it, and you are now doing it, not really sure why you are trying to make something more of it. Either way i am done with this conversation that never needed to go beyond the original reply, apparently you don't like help, i'll remember that in the future.
