Team 3074's own "OC-AMD" ("OC-X" in the forums) has surpassed yet another major milestone in the folding community... The 20 million point mark! That's right. As of this posting, OC-AMD is sitting on a cool 20,003,402 points! What an amazing feat! Congratulations OC on a job well done. Our "little team that could" is still chugging away, but we could always use some more horsepower. If you'd like to learn how you can put your machines to work helping humanity, swing by our ever-friendly Distributed Computing Forums and check out all of the projects that we participate in. Maybe you too will find one that fits!

#36423 Posted on: 05/16/2005 05:08 AM Its an amazing achievement OC-X. If any one else wants to chip in some idle time on their computer to assist [URL=http://folding.stanford.edu/]Stanford University's Protein Folding Project[/URL] "when proteins do not fold correctly (i.e. "misfold"), there can be serious effects, including many well known diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington's, and Parkinson's disease." "Folding@Home is a distributed computing project which studies protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and related diseases. We use novel computational methods and large scale distributed computing, to simulate timescales thousands to millions of times longer than previously achieved. This has allowed us to simulate folding for the first time, and to now direct our approach to examine folding related disease." Pleaes come and join the 2CPU folding team!!
