I borrowed from a friend AMD Radeon R9 290, can I fold with it?

If you have drivers and opencl works with it. I think any gpu card less than 6 years old should work.

The forums indicate they are still usable

@VaCrunch has really been moving the total forward with what seems more powerful machines.

Nope. Same four machines, just better assignments. Not sure why. Couldn’t be because I’m the teacher’s pet, I don’t even bring an apple.

BTW, I’m really looking forward to the day when SAFE works this smoothly. There is a lot to emulate here regarding ease-of-use and performance.

Would be nice if SAFE Network could get into top 1% (Rank 2500 or bust!).

The rate we are going it may very well be possible. Maybe if a few others added their GPUs when not gaming we could shoot ahead faster.

haha, my laptop was fuming I can’t run it anymore. My CPU and GPU was reaching 93°C.

You could try disabling CPU folding and just do GPU. Controls are in the system tray. Also the web interface has settings for light, medium and heavy lifting.

GPU is actually the hottest

Oh my god, this is really bad. But hey, if we can make into to top 1% I’ll join :upside_down_face:

Do this really work? Thought a quantum computer was needed because modeling conformation of any molecule larger than 50 atoms was beyond the reach of any classical machine no matter how large?
