No, I haven't overclocked in a while. I used to be kinda into it, but I lost interest. Maybe I'll try sometime.

Hey, Im just curious. How old is every1 here? I was just wondering what the average age of a computer geek is. Im 15 myself, then I realized, "Hey, most of these ppl r prolly adults." I guess it's pretty rare 4 a 15 yr old 2 have so great of a comp as I do.

26/M/UK GSOH-- That is a nice spec Venom. I bet it is new(ish) when i was 15 I had a 486. I wouldn't overclock it till you feel it is getting slow. There is a big posibility that you may overclock it to do exta folding, that is why I overclocked my 1800+<BR><BR>Eventually I will upgrade to a faster processor, but the prices for fast processors are rediculous in the UK.

Welcome Venom, 25/M/KcMO I wish I had a nice comp like that when I was your age. Or two even.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

Why is it that a 200 WU took twice as long as a 400 WU? I just finished my second WU. At this rate, I can catch up with recycle's current score in about..... 300 days. Agh. Oh well, Im getting there slowly.

Venom some work units even though smaller take longer to compute... It's ok.<BR><BR>Haha, I doubt anyone will catch recycle!

No kidding Colin, how many processors is he running?&nbsp; I will soon be adding another to my/our cause...

Last time I checked he had 6. Well, when I get older and have my MS in Comp Sci, I'll be sure to have several computers of my own. Im going to try and get my dad to run it. He has a 1.2 GHz Athlon (I sold my old computer to him), but he is paranoid about extra software. He likes his comp running as smoothly as possible, and he'll blame any problems on F@H.

but with F@H running he won't even notice he's running in the abckground.

Ya, I know that. The problem is convincing him. Yay, Im doing good. Finished 3 WU, and I just got a 70 pt one.

You don't have to download anything to see how much your current project is worth. Just go to http://folding.stanford.edu/psummary.html and find your project.

I must be extra lazy because I never consern myself with how many points each wu is.
