Greg Bowman, PhD, an assistant professor of biochemistry and molecular biophysics at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, is leading a supercomputing project called Folding@home. The project seeks to unravel the mysteries of protein dynamics, including the folding process, and their roles in health and disease.

Currently donating an RTX 2060 super, GTX 1070, 1660 and 1650 along with 4 i7's of various generations. I'm happy to be a part of the F@H network and sincerely wish more people were exposed to this. It should be an optional tool built into the GeForce Experience software.

His voice 🥰 finishing my first WU in 5min after running my shabby old laptop gpu geforce gt 740 for 2days straight.

Just started lending my PC's computing power to Project 117xx

I work at this university, I have my pc folding (2 x gtx 980's)

@bgtubber 4 года назад

Contributing with a GTX 1080 Ti 11gb and a GTX 980 8gb. I am looking into buying additionally two GTX 1070's to add to the mix.

There's your problem, the MacBook! Hehe! You need the PC Master-race, with their 2080ti's and Titans getting in on the show. (Which is why mines, now folding 👍😊)

@bigarmydave 4 года назад

@Francesco Gambini Impressive buddy! Nicely done 😊

@betterthanbestyoutuber8804 4 года назад

@Francesco Gambini what points could be achieved on 2080ti if same folding happened on it?

@dr_booze6106 4 года назад

Does anyone here know the name for the disease that Dr Bownman has? A friend of mine is slowly losing her vision the same way and I immediatly thought of this video. Help would be appreciated.

A lot of people won't want to put up the running cost of a power-hungry GPU, if you choose provide a monetary incentive upon discovering a certain cure for example, I feel a lot more people would contribute. In all honesty it just looks like an easy way to get free computing power to develop drugs that will then of course be sold on

@Shorty15c4007 4 года назад

I agree it's like Goodwill's business plan. Give us free stuff to sell so you'll feel good that you are "helping" people while at the same time you help us else get rich.

@Shorty15c4007 4 года назад

@Francesco Gambini I doubt it will offset the additional running costs in my electricity bill. What do you earn in a month with this curecoin? Peanuts?

@Spacecomber 4 года назад

This is pretty close to pure research, though hopefully someone can build on these findings therapeutically. Perhaps it will even move us closer to a long term solution for viruses like the new corona virus. I might not get rich from such a breakthrough, but hopefully I will get a chance to benefit from it. In any case, it is still cool enough outside that I am running the heat anyway. 😉

They don't calculate pharmaceuticals, it's research. It's like helping out Niels Bohr with his calculations into relativity and quantum physics, but asking him to provide a monetary incentive upon accidentally building your first atomic car. Why he's just tryina get rich off your back isn't he?

Dont worry! The good boys and girls at the DOGE coin community shall stay close to you :D

@AarshParashar 4 года назад

Fuck OpenCL and CUDA. Just plain use a Vulkan and Metal compute backend. And also add compatibility for Android and iOS devices.

@Akxels_ 3 года назад

So now for the real question... when is a Rich guy with a Ryzen 9 3950x and 2 Rog Strix 3090 connected with SLI with liquid cooling going to start folding?

@gptstories_ 2 года назад

I have a watercooled 3090. There is nothing else to say

"really powerful mac book pro" buddy im not tryina be mean or something but if you want powerful hardware you would want to skip apple products. just saying but im now folding :)
