I had a 750k point day today putting me over 2M total. Not bad for 1 week.

Porsche 804 - raced in F1 in 1962; 8 races, 1 win, 1 pole position.

I thought I was going to have to post a Peugeot but it looks like we can avoid that today.

We were neck and neck! I did a bunch of gaming today so not as much folding got done. Also just disabled my CPU folding, the return for the time/energy invested just didn’t seem worth it anymore.

Wifes complainin about the noise. the heats just at limits. That new paste cant get here soon enough, but even then, there may be better cases for folding. The heat the card is throwing off is so bad it’s air i s heat soaking the aio radiator and raising idle cpu temps to 60. I pulled the filter screens for tonight and will record temps as it churns points. But I may have to pull the 2070s from folding duty if this continues. I don’t wnat to spend more on a case, this one was good money and ist still a great lookin office pc.

I closed the CPU folding slot today and the noise level dropped 90 % and the drop in ppd is not even noticable. So it's only folding on the 1060 gpu.

 I love those skinny open wheels. That car says this is a good day to die.

I did the same today. I can't tell the difference in points per day when I look at the control panel.

A ssuming our rate is 200 million a month it would take a total of 5 months to reach 1 billion.

And then there’s the fact that the other active folding teams are still accruing points.

Math is important.

Quick question... does it only count base credits? I ran a work unit on the GPU last night which was supposed to be a ~90k credit value but I think it only added about 13k to my credits when finished.

02:40:24:WU01:FS01:Final credit estimate, 92315.00 points

And I also did shut off the CPU slot. The 9900K is a power hungry beast and not nearly as efficient as the GPU. Running it under constant full load for hours on end is just too much noise and heat on all components for what it delivers to FAH.

That I do not know. Ping jminer; he’d know.

We are averaging 850,000 points per hour, if my calculations are accurate and appropriate, which rate has been steadily increasing over the past two weeks. So that’s more like 600 million per month. And we’re still picking up speed. I don’t know how long we can sustain this rate of acceleration , but let’s see.
