It's just that easy!
Also, I noticed some people mentioning their cpu(s) running at 100%, this isn't your typical 100% where its like your computer has "hung up".
It is more like the light is on or off when it comes to the folding. I am sure you might have even noticed it says 100% but you are not noticing any lag. It is designed to use idle cycles, so it will only use what is available.
As others have mentioned it is the gpu folding that will hurt your performance
vape on and fold strong!
That should be a quote right there! It's wonderful to see so many eager vapers here!
Yep, I had to disable the gpu. I also can't leave my rig running 24/7, so I just pause before shutting down and when I restart, it picks up where it left off. These are the reasons I asked to make sure I wasn't hurting the team![]()
Well I tried and now I'm giving up. I uninstalled about a hour ago. I had it running all last night and about 8 hours during the last 2 days and its not showing anything under my name. No units nothing.
Bedazzle
What is gpu and how do you disable it off and what does it effect if you disable it?
Depending on your system, it will install/slot your gpu ( graphics processor/card ) to also work on units instead of just your cpu.
When you look at your folding main screen if it only shows 1 item being worked on then it is only using your cpu
What do you mean it will install your graphics card? My graphics card is already installed.
It shows only 1 project being worked on so I guess it's just using cpu.
What I meant was that it will install the part of the client that will use your gpu and the slot is the term they use for what is running.
Sorry I type faster than I think most of the time and usually with a lot of spelling erros![]()
You said you only have one thing showing so it will never do just gpu so you are all CPU![]()
Sadness.
They no longer support core duo Macs. This eliminates my retired laptop. Looks like I will only be folding on two machines.
Oh well. Better than on no machines!
I'm running smp on my iMac running V7.2.9. I know I can't get any smp wus on my mbp using V6xxxx and I can't get V7 to load on my mbp.
