That latter for me. Only run tests when I've had a new GPU, now days I run a Beelink mini-pc which is basically a laptop in a box without a screen or keyboard :cry:

Well good to see some people still popping in here at least!

Since my last post I've cut CPU crunching to ~12hrs/7 for now.

Didn’t Google solve a load of it?

Some, but not the parts that F@H are still doing.

It never was as much fun as Seti@home though, in the early days.

I remember an IT guy at work running it on the servers, that went down well :cry:

Not with the price of electric these days.

Nope, we just deleted all the instances we could find. Not like he could complain :cry:

Lol, I take it he didn't have permission then!

i ended up with an old rx580 and a ryzen 2700x after bailing on my 2400g cpu, i decided to stick folding on my pc when its cold, if the heatings going to go on inaway i might aswell let the PC heat the front room up.

ocuk team is as good as dead by the looks of it tho lol,

Used to enjoy watching it build the graphs as it was crunching.
