Hope to join the club soon, once I get over this tiered internet... xwx


RE: Folding Leaders - Addy - 18th May 2020

I’m just about to hit 25m.. I should be there soon

This list needs to be updated, but congratulations to everyone who's reaching 100M mark.


RE: Folding Leaders - Mia - 3rd August 2020

I planned on going for 100m, but one of the fans in my pc isn't working. I don't want it to overheat. I'm gonna stop folding and hopefully reach it if I can get the fan fixed.

You could monitor your thermals and see if overheating is even a worry because it may be fine (assuming it's a case fan), I'd recommend HWiNFO to monitor temps

Just message me if you want help with this, If the fan is dead you could change up the fan configuration (or even leave it as is depending), but I'd need to know your case model and how many fans in total there are to make a recommendation there

do you even use the cpu while folding? i dont because the fan is to loud


RE: Folding Leaders - Mia - 3rd August 2020

Yeah after running that program I'm concerned cause the CPU temp reached 101.6C. That seems way too high, but I dunno. I don't know a whole lot about this.

I've set up an appointment to (hopefully) get the fan fixed. I received the computer like this, with the fan that doesn't work. Probably had this for about a week. So I'm pretty unhappy.


RE: Folding Leaders - David - 3rd August 2020

101.6c is definitely way too high and is near the point of causing a shutdown to save itself, is it the CPU cooler fan not working? And do you have a link to the exact PC you bought? Just wanna know more specifics

That is most certainly way too high. Don't bother trying to get it fixed, just buy a new cpu cooler, can get a decent one for cheap (maybe even cheaper than what you pay the repair guy). Remember to re-apply thermal paste. And yeah you shouldn't even fold with your cpu these days, cpu folding is pretty pointless now with the ppd gpus put out.

I don't know. It's the internal fan on the rear end.

See the picture, how there's a fan on the back with an LED light around it? Neither the fan or the LED light are working.

How do I stop the cpu from folding? I seriously know nothing about this. I tried removing it from the folding slot, but it reactivated itself. Nevermind, I think I figured that out.

For some reason, my GPU PPD is three times lower now. This is so frustrating.

That rear fan working would definitely help some, but I think your CPU is still going to run hot. The case isn't the best for airflow (solid front panel with only tiny side vents for intake) and the stock CPU cooler isn't very good for running full load for long periods of time so I'd suggest not running F@h on your CPU (CPU folding isn't very good anyway, I'd just rely only on your GPU like suggested). One thing I'd suggest is removing the mesh filter from the top of your case as that will impede airflow exiting the case and isn't as necessary for exhaust anyway. Also, if your room is hot (I imagine it would be with all the folding you're doing) that'll hurt as well. Luckily the fan should be a simple fix, I assume they'll just swap the fan out assuming it's not a loose connection

Saw the updated post, just give your GPU time
