  • What's the optimal Folding client combo?
    by Scott Wasson — 11:19 AM on August 14, 2008

    Team TR's Folding production has been moving upward since our recent call to arms, I'm happy to report. But, I must sheepishly admit that I haven't been Folding on my main PC since building myself a new system. I'd like to install the right clients on...

  • Team TR Folding@home: A call to arms
    by Cyril Kowaliski — 11:52 AM on August 6, 2008

    As you may or may not know, the TR community contributes quite a bit to Stanford University's Folding@home project. Using spare processor (and graphics processor) cycles, TR's team 2630 managed to reach sixth place in the global FAH rankings several months ago. However, we've slipped to eighth...

    by Cyril Kowaliski — 12:08 PM on June 20, 2008

    At last, Stanford University has released a beta version of the GPU2 Folding@home client for Nvidia graphics cards. You can grab the client from this post on the official FAH forums, although Stanford's Adam Beberg suggests users closely read the FAQ page to familiarize themselves with the software...

  • Folding GPU client is on the way for Nvidia cards
    by Cyril Kowaliski — 6:00 AM on May 23, 2008

    Stanford University has been releasing GPU clients for AMD graphics cards for some time now, and there's even a GPU2 client in the works (the beta is available here). Somewhat surprisingly, though, Stanford has yet to release a GPU client that can harness the computing power of Nvidia's latest...

  • New GPU folding client is available from Stanford
    by Cyril Kowaliski — 11:59 AM on April 10, 2008

    Almost two years have passed since Stanford University kicked off its Folding@home GPU project. The initiative took Stanford's distributed computing project to ATI's Radeon graphics cards, yielding considerable performance gains with some types of workloads. This morning, Folding@home Director Vijay Pande announced the start of an open beta testing...

    Stanford University has a few surprises up its sleeve for the next version of its distributed protein folding software, according to a post on the blog of Folding@Home Director and Stanford Professor Vijay Pande. The new software is being demonstrated at the SC07 high-performance computing conference in Reno,...

  • Why aren't you folding for TR?
    by Geoff Gasior — 1:12 PM on April 15, 2002

    It's unofficially Folding Day here at TR, but before we get into this week's poll, let's take a look at last week's results. When given the intentionally extreme options of a Pentium 75 on broadband or a Pentium 4 2.4GHz on 28.8Kbps dial-up, 57% of you would rather...
