Just in case we have some new PS3 owners: Running Folding@Home on your PS3 or desktop? JOIN THE CLUTCHFANS GROUP (56139)!!!!! The group is currently ranked 6740 out of 63047.
The PS3 client just had an update right? I think I read that it is twice as fast as the previous client, although I'm not too sure about that. We're doing pretty good considering the number of users we have doing this (not too many, and only a few are really active). You and oomp are leaving me behind.
If I have it on at night I leave it off in the day and vice versa. These things are designed to where you can leave them on all the time and they will be fine. OH YEA!!! I turn it off when I play games But i just have not had time for a while to play They just updated the application and yea it works a lot faster. I can't really notice any other different other than the visuals. They say you can see yourself on the world map but I have not figured it out. JOIN GUYS!!!
I usually let my PC fold for a few days in a row (basically enough to finish a WU), then I give it a day or two "off." No real logic behind this, and I should probably stick to doing one or the other. I was worried about people leaving PS3s on 24/7 to do this, but it seems like some people have done that w/o having any issues. I think the Folding@Home team even had a number of PS3s folding non-stop for a few weeks without any issues. I guess if worst comes to worst, you could always rely on the warranty.
I actually have this in my sig. Though I dont use it, was causing to many problems on my computer with freezing and crap so i just got rid of it.
We've been climbing in the ranks this week. I've left mine running overnight a few times with no problems. The problem I'm having is that I'm playing the Ninja Gaiden Sigma demo too much, and Calling All Cars is next week!
