put this in the important topic, now everyone download the folding at home software and join the moviecodec club and see if we can get into the top chart for contributing power, lets see what kinda power we can get.

Folding@home is a distributed computing project designed to perform computationally intensive simulations of protein folding and other molecular dynamics simulations. It was launched on October 1, 2000, and is currently managed by the Pande Group, within Stanford University’s Chemistry department, under the supervision of Professor Vijay S. Pande. F@H is one of the largest distributed computing projects. The goal of the project is “to understand protein folding, misfolding, and related diseases.

Should we do it then?

P. Moore is most likely making this topic because the Playstation 3 uses the system, however with that being said, it does help Stanford cure diseases.

It helps cure diseases lol
Helps the guys at Stanford University do their research more efficiently.

Folding@Home is not needed... they have super-computers and stuff working on these things, some of our crappy comps can’t really help...

actually ur wrong they do need us, for them to do something that now seems simple to them now on a super computer or few super computers would take them 30 years to make a simulation, but with this folding at home project(ps3 contributing most) they can now do what should take 30 years now takes only 1 tenth of a second! also u get points for helping and stuff, and u can make teams and compare ur computer and teams to others, and u dont even realise the programe is running in the background, it does little to nothing to ur performance

Dude, they have super computers that can created more then 20 billions stars growing then dying, the dust from the spreading out and making new stars... then virtual galaxies crashing into each other, etc... all without lag... billions of objects moving around and crashing together.

Also, i love how you just assume the ps3 is contributing the most.. HAHAHA

Well thats what the Stanford guy said.

The PS3 is contributing the most, didn’t we discuss that in another thread?
Having hundreds of thousands of things computing these solutions at once is even better then every super computer they have, they work better and in the long run it gets more done, that’s why they’re doing it.

No, there are more computers helping then ps3’s.
I guess the standford guys are just cheap.... if they have to rely on civilians helping...

exactly! more comps but the ps3s are helping more
