If you have a 105W processor in it I Don’t recommend running CPU folding or BOINC on it 24x7.

 

The upside is I replaced it with an Aorus x570 Master for ... ummm ... a VRM upgrade. 5900x likely to follow to replace the 2700x

Ah, that makes sense. So you're saying mine should be fine; I've got a 3600 (65W TDP) with a probably-overkill AIO on it. (If I were just gaming I probably would have stuck with the stock cooler, but I could only fold 5 of 12 threads without it overheating....)

But really, sorry for your loss @Gorgon and everyone else who sacrificed to appease the hardware gods.

Great month, I look forward to doing this again next year.

And as for the new levels, I'm glad I got my 25M Silver during this event.... though the slog from here to the new Gold is going to be very long.

Well said. My grandmother was a breast cancer survivor, and as my own mother gets older, I just hope that she doesn't get it. I also had two grandfathers die from different cancers. I'm happy to raise my electric bill to help end it. Thanks for everyone's efforts!

210 today. Still moving up.

Might go down a little today though, as I'm shutting down to do some minor hardware upgrades. I've got my old laptop folding now too, but it's only ~1000 PPD....

I hold no hope of ever being near the top with my humble 3600 and 1650S, but so far I keep moving up.
