Folding is stressful on hardware, and will often break an overclock unless it's been tested with folding. I do not recommend overclocking high end GPUs as the power draw can be extreme while folding. If anything, try tuning for energy efficiency. Casualties happen and EXTREMEHW can not be held accountable if you destroy your hardware while folding. 

 

Thank you for your participation!

This time around I'll start on time and not have to shut my rig down early, I hope!

Finally cold enough to just leave a couple rigs running all the time.

It looks like this is the final folding blowout for EXTREMEHW.

 

I need to go ahead and say a few words. First of all, this site has been a blast for me. I'm thankful for @ENTERPRISE inviting me here from overclock.net. Thanks to @BWG for getting me, just an enthusiast overclocker, interested in some crazy stress test benchmark called folding@home. Thanks to @Avacado @axipher @zodac @firedfly for getting me up to speed on that so I could help take over for BWG as I stumbled and fumbled through the learning. We had some very good foldathons and put up some huge numbers for such a small team. Thanks to EVERYONE who folded with us at EXTREMEHW. Some of you were very dedicated up until the very end, crunching the hell out of some work units. I also had a good time benching with you fellow overclockers on HWBOT. Also as a very small team we put up insane numbers and collected a ton of cups and medals.

 

Where do we go from here? Well I'm still active on the techpowerup.com forums. I plan on folding for them as a regular team member and I plan on joining their hwbot team. I invite all of you to follow me over there, as it's one of the last good PC tech forums still alive. For those heading elsewhere or retiring, I hope we meet again!

So I went digging and found all the remaining EHW stickers I have. I had these printed before the official merch store opened and have given them away as folding prizes on several occasions. By now just about everyone that folds regularly or I've shipped anything to has received one. If anyone doesn't have one and would like one, slide into my DM's.

I may try to join in if it doesn't make the room too stuffy.

You can live through a room being stuffy for 2 days. Toss a lil undervolt on if that's what it takes to convince you to fold

I can, my wife can't 

 

Now if I had an office instead of this sitting in the bedroom, that would be different.

Just put it in the living room, I do that too

Unfortunately, I have to sit this last one out because of travel, and having joined the Techpowerup folding team. I can change my team number back to EHW, I just won't be here for a week to change it back.

Do you use the newer V8 Client? If so you can log in from wherever and change the team back. This could very well be our last foldathon so it would be great if we could get everybody to fold.
