Folding Forum

I have a 'watchdog triggered, soft shutdown' error on 18201. It's still "running" to 100% in accordance with the time it should take, but it's using no GPU and barely any CPU.

I used to have a machine with a Core 2 Duo T7200 @ 2.0Ghz. It would overheat and turn it's fans up to jet speed even when playing a side-scroller game, and it's iGPU would overheat and BSOD on running the Windows Energy screensaver for more than half an hour. You probably have a Core 2 Duo P8600 in ...

Make sure you also try it with CPU folding off if you're on Windows. Me and some of my team members all discovered that GPU PPD production was highest with CPU folding off (on a bunch of CPUs ranging from 6-core i7 10750Hs and R5 3600s to a 16-core 3950x, tried all combinations from just 4 threads C...

I first started folding in 2005, on an Athlon 64 3200+ that did around 500PPD. Forgot the name of that account though (and my hotmail emails got deleted, much to my chagrin). Then again in 2013, with either an i5 3450 + 650Ti or a Core 2 Duo P8600. And now finally, on my current account, I've been f...

If your PC is stable, it shouldn't be a problem. I've folded on a myriad of devices, including a Lenovo Yoga 3 14 with a GeForce 940M that always ran at 85+c and had a back cover that would crack open every time you opened the lid. It died after 2 years, not because of a component failure but becaus...

What CPU does it have? If it has a 4th generation i3/i5 it can CPU fold and also, probably get more points that way than a GPU of the caliber of a 720M can. An i5-4300U would net you around 10k PPD.
