do you have a passkey?
to earn bonus points in SMP you need a passkey

passkey here



if you have further question on Bigadv you should post your system specs
and let some seasoned Bigadv folders set you up..if you are interested

welcome aboard

Hmm, I don't seem to be getting bonus points on bigadv. I am running v7 with -bigadv and correct passkey . 
(SR-2, X5670@4.32) Slots are configured as SMP with client-type bigadv and max-packet-size big and I get bigadv but only standard points 
I do not run GPU folding (the GTX590 is for gaming, not cooking)

hey guys im new to the team hope to help

you have to complete 10 smp units at 80% success before bonus kicks in
so do basic smp for the first 10

welcome to the team
 
I suggest reading the FAH tracker guide and using tracker
http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=219556
 
or use stanfords V7 client
https://fah-web.stanford.edu/projects/FAHClient/wiki/BetaRelease
 
if your planning on doing SMP get a passkey

you have to do 10 smp units with 80% completion before you earn bonus points
if you want to do bigadv.. we need  to know your system
and we can help you set it up...if you want to go that route

What is bigadv folding you ask:
It's simple. Bigadv folding is folding smp -bigadv WUs (work units) on your PC.
The advantage to folding bigadv WUs is that they net much higher points for the folder and thereby for the folding team.
 
What is needed to fold bigadv WUs:
-A cpu with 8 threads (e.g. an i7 with Hyper Threading turned on)
-A minimum cpu overclock of at least 3.6ghz
 
Who should fold bigadv WUs:
-Someone who is able to leave their computer on and folding for at least 19 hours a day
 
Bonus Point:
Bigadv WUs (without bonus points) net approximately 8-9k points per WU. These WU's take on average 2.5 days to complete (note: time to WU completion depends on your cpu, overclock, etc.).
However, with bonus points a Bigadv WU will net approximately 70k points per WU. In order to qualify for bonus points you need to have folded at least 10 SMP (e.g. CPU) WUs with a passkey that you get from Stanford.
 
You can obtain a passkey from Stanford here (http://fahweb.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/getpasskey.py).
 
for you - 4 cores - no do regular SMP
to get in a bigadv you seriously would have to OC the CPU (and barely get them in)
 
when you get a bigger system (all folders generally do eventually go to BIGADV )

ok i see thanks

That's quite obvious. I can't post links (POS forum) but if you look at my F@H profile you'll see I have folded many bigadv and bigbeta with bonus (during may/june/july). So why did I lose my bonus? Just for switching teams??? That's f-ing lame I can't believe that so I hope it's a bug?

Its not a bug, when you switch teams you have to reprime your passkey with that team. If you can switch over to regular smp and complete the 10 wu's shouldn't take too long with your system.

it's not that you have to reprime every time you switch back and forth
just that you have to prime the key with each team you join
 
 
 

I have learned something new today 
 
edit: 10 show up, going to run bigadv or bigbeta which one do you recommend? I have disabled NUMA but are there any other tweaks to be made? Is the 7 an improvement over FAH6?
 
TIA.

Hello all, I'm still getting things figured out. I just started this week folding on the EVGA team, using my 1GB GTX460 Superclocked (01G-P3-1372-AR) to fold away using Stanford's GPU3 client. I'm going to fire up my PS3 tonight and get it started on doing the same. I may download the FAH GPU Tracker V2 . That would let me use both my GPU and CPU to fold at the same time? Though I assume my CPU won't do much as it's only an E6550 Conroe OC'd to 2.93ghz.  
 
UPDATE: I may already be folding on my home machine using the GPU3 client, my PS3, and I tried last night to get two of my Dell workstations to run overnight, but I ran into some issues. I'm not sure why I never looked into F@H earlier, my friend mentioned it to me last week which prompted me to delve into it a little deeper.

Shroke reporting for duty!  Hope to contribute as much as I can :)

filled out the sheet, but misspelled my name lmao

Welcome to Team EVGA , were glad to have you aboard.

Checking in, been folding for the Horde and am splitting off my personal rigs. Curious to see how well my newly purchased 2600k does.

Welcome to the team!!!!!

new here guys just wondering what team # is?

Finally back after a couple years. Now I need to relearn all of this.

We suggest using FAH GPU Tracker if you aren't already using it , use  V7

Fresh new folder here, I'm at work so will sort the form when I get home. Glad to be here, happy to have left my pc attempting to cure alzheimers hehe

Hi Guys,

I just started folding about a week ago. While my current rig isn't contributing much, my build in progress will be able to put up some good numbers as soon as its up an running. EVGA's community is so awesome and I'm stoked to be a part of this team! 

Welcome to the team guys!

Hello all , I just started back folding again now that im gaming on my ps3 more. Im folding on my Q9450 and 2 460 Gtx but im having trouble overclocking my cpu though can't seem to get it stable so its at stock :/

A wee bit late (ugggg..... work......) but welcome all new folders!!!  Hope to see you around for the next challenge which every little bit helps.  Don't let the other teams get you down, they are just jealous that they don't have folders like team EVGA :)

Welcome everyone!!
