A great big warm welcome to the team!

If you haven't done so already then why not check out the Folding@Home Setup Guide and the Quickie Guide for more foldy-tastic tips especially for when you're in a rush.
Got a Dual/Quad and not scared of getting stuck in to some SMP goodness? Check out SiriusB's excellent SMP Client Setup Guide and see if you have what it takes.

You know you're a true numbers-monkey when you spot that the team total contains all the numbers from 1-9 just jumbled up a little
A truly fanatastic team effort again this week - makes the news so much more fun to compile!
Some large production for the newcomers there - really making a big difference.

Fold on Team 10!!!

If you've not been mentioned either I've made a mistake or your stats haven't changed since last week - give a shout and let us know you're still alive

2nd on weeks top crunchers ^_^, if ppl are confused, i stopped my previous accound and started my new one. i'm averageing 6000ppd with a 8800gtx and a quad and a dual core to be added to the mix

great week for team ten w00p (o)_(o)

Senture · 4 Sep 2008 at 21:51

A very good week indeed, cant believe I got 2nd place O_O.

I'd have to fold on both machines 24/7 to beat 100,000PPW, WTG

Kalsius · 4 Sep 2008 at 22:08

Nice to see the team doing well, I've definitely been away from folding for way too long and figured with some new rigs, I'd stick my oar in too!!

Another 4870 to join the current two SMP, a 4870 and a PS3 so more crunching yet to come!!

booyaka · 4 Sep 2008 at 22:36

excellent stuff - back this week just with my 8800gt pumping out 4.5k pdd so all good.

Going to get to the million mark i hope this week - show off my tiffy and then put the machine into some down time to reduce the electric bill a bit and also to get some more overclocking done. (just spent a shed load on a new car!!!)

I will be back mind u!!!

Fold on TEAM 10!!

uknowist · 4 Sep 2008 at 22:42

oh no, significant drop for me again, must stop playing games

Curiosity killed the cat, would that be at stock or overclocked?

Pumpkinstew · 4 Sep 2008 at 23:37

Position number 7 in the single machine league again. Too much Bioshock

Thanks for the news Meester Meeleeions.

Mattus · 5 Sep 2008 at 00:38

Thanks Rich

Hmm, 6k down from last week - must fold harder

A big welcome to all the newcomers (and their PPD

) - hopefully we can get back into the top 40 next week!

Fold on.

Also curious!! I'm running a stock 4870 and some SMP cores and not hitting that ppd, how is that thing config'd?

Lee_Dixon - 1211 (just beating snapsh0t_too's record of 1190 places)

Thanks for the news, Rich. To be fair, the record is still Knat's at 1266. I was just the first to break the 1000 barrier (unless anyone else knows better).

TheKnat · 5 Sep 2008 at 07:09

Thanks for the news Rich. Told you all the top spot would be mine this week

Unfortunately, it looks like my production is going to drop over the next few weeks as I have to move house.

It'll let you all try and get some more points before I come back to whooping you

doh! thought yours was the top after someone mentioned something on the day knat arrived - realise what that something was now though

Yeggstry · 5 Sep 2008 at 07:57

Thanks rich.

Looks like I'm resigned to #2 for a while, there's no way I can catch Mattus without upgrading and at the moment I simple cant afford it

Biffa · 5 Sep 2008 at 08:41

Great news Rich, looks like I'll be out of the single crunchers league if I can find the damned GS that should have arrived for me at work while I was away!

shadowscotland · 5 Sep 2008 at 09:50

Thanks for the news rich, and from memory I think snapsh0t is right - he hit 1000 first but Knat has the current record.

That said - congratulation to all four top stompers with 1000 plus!

overclocked to 700/1000 (2000) - not had time to push it further - should do more now it's watercooled! 24/7 running at the moment.

What about the shaders? I found that really increased the PPD the card does.

Decided to go on the risky route last night, BIOS flashed (because software won't work) my M1730 to 625/900/1700

i think it's 1555 on the shaders or so - will check later and confirm

That's odd because my 8800GS does 4900 ppd at a core clock of 635 and memory at 920
