I fold whenever my computer is on... even when I'm gaming. It doesn't really affect my performance.

I fold when I'm at school or asleep. It gets too hot to do so when I'm home. But it's nearly winter so I'll use folding to keep my room warm in a couple months. It's still in the 80's during the day here. Too hot.

since the weather is finally cooling down, I basically don't stop folding. temps are ok, pc is under a perma opened window so the colder it gets, the better. I usually pause my main gpu and cpu for a couple of hours of gaming and editing, but that's about it.

 

can't wait till they implement folding power sliders for each slot

I fold whenever my PC is on until the work load is done and then, I let it rest for 2 hours, and then start my next work load.
