That's still quite a long while for me, I keep getting the long WUs nowadays that take 4-5 hours and dish out 50-60K points in the end... Pretty insignificant compared to the top 100 that are above me by a long shot.

If this wasn’t for a good cause, I would hate you rn buying a GPU for 3 days of folding

Hears from the distance Fold with your heart <- @King Poet

"Believe in the heart of the cards."

[palespartan]

Figured since we are in the last week of folding here I would post up the pics of my rigs running.

 

 

This one is the "reliable (tm)" setup I have in the office. (the system on the right is currently running my other 970 G1 gaming instead of the 670 in the pic) note how the system on the right has its own power supply and then the GPU power is coming from the PSU for the other system mind you this means a reboot of either system will inevitably crash both.

 

 

This one is much less jerryrigged since it is my gaming tower (note how the 670 is magically in both pics. Shhhh....) its sitting in a define s and to improved airflow and temps the front panel is taken off as well as the side panel (gave me a 3c drop on the 1080ti). I also get crap from my roommates all the time for having my monitors setup like this but I like it.

 

 

Last we have my AW13 R3. This is definitely the nicest looking of the group. but this is my DD for work, fun, basically everything I do that isn't gaming is done on this so it doesn't quite fold full time due to travel from a to b and such and also runs the gpu straight up to 90c when folding so after the month is over this will not be folding anymore. But it runs a 1060 for anyone wondering.

 

P.S. should we have a vote for who has the sketchiest folding system? for who has the best? let me know.

Still a vicious battle for 5th place in terms of Daily Points Production

I'm out of that part... AMD cards off since weekend.

 

What I'm unsure about is what do I do after the month is over? I'll probably continue, at a lower level but this is undecided.

we could even take in the top 10 but we would have to keep this level of folding till end of the year.

Well, if somebody wants to donate a 1070 or better to my future gaming cause…I'll keep it 100% folding through the end of the year to help that top 10 happen, being a team player and all.   O:-) 

I'm placing an order on a Sapphire RX 590 right now... or two...  All because off this event that had me return to folding, besides Boinc, and the thrill off the finish sauna   that shall help my trusty dual Xeon 2670 with its 1060 and my old Core2Quad 9550 with its 750 Ti to heat my house, or shall I say, the thrill off the LTT "ITNOS" Power   

 

EDIT: Just one for the time being, don't think my two daughters will appreciate that their christmas presents is one of two new graphics cards in my workstation 

 

EDIT 2: The 1070 (or both ) is naturally mine. I'm preparing my speech right now, you know, "if" i win 

 

Or else....

My guess would be people who found out you didn't need to do folding month to win the GPU. Or people who finished the badge requirements.

Happens with stuff like this, but the overall enormous turnout cannot be undermined. This event blew the doors off of expectations!

IKR, I was expecting like 15-20 people. maybe 30....

 

Not all of this. Tbh that was what caused so many issues in the first week. We had to keep expanding the datasheet. Eventually I just made it 500 long and was like, if we go over this, I QUIT.

We definitely do appreciate all the help from everyone irrespective of the hardware they are able to bring to the fold. EVERY single bit has helped make this an outstanding month for the LTT Folding Team.
