Each GPU needs 1 core of CPU for AMD I believe - so keep that in mind.

Interesting, so my Celeron CPU G1610 (which is dual core) may well not be up to the job then? It's been mining SCRYPT fine for the last 6 months.

If your Celeron drives two GPUs it's perfectly fine. Some people do (or did) exactly that: high performance GPU feeded by low performance CPU

Yup! Newer Catalyst drivers + better folding@home software updates allow a lot of systems with low-end processors to still run high-end GPUs without too much bottlenecking.

Any tips on configuration for folding will always be gratefully received. They are running silent in comparison to the racket they make when scrypt mining. If that's normal then great, my marriage will benefit from the peace

I've been folding now for over 24 hrs using F@H onto https://www.cryptobullionpools.com but still no stats are showing up on there

I have 5 290 GPUs and my CPU at it

How long does it take?

btw - I'm a cancer patient so thing this is awesome

Your points will be showing up soon my friend! The pool updating is still currently paused but your points are being recorded.

Make sure you leave enough cpu cycle room to feed all those 290 gpu's. With all those 290 gpu's using your cpu will pale in comparison. If you need any help balancing the system just let us know. Turning CPU folding off might help your 290's fold faster.

I hope Team Curecoin can help find some real cures! Keep in good spirits friend!

is it happening tonight, or can i go to sleep?

Ive spoke with the main members of the team today. It looks like the team will be able to get together tomorrow afternoon about 2pm EST. Expect launch to happen shortly after that as we put the last pieces in place.

Work units can take a long time to fold for many cards (AMD cards average 6 - 12 hours for a work unit, certain high end Nvidia can complete a WU in four hours or less). If you start folding tonight its likely that your points will be counted tomorrow.

I would recommend to set up a folder or two, catch a little sleep, and get ready for the fun tomorrow.

I'm curious about the folding coins being premined - how will that be managed - if the coin bloats in value what is to keep a developer with access from selling a bunch of coins and getting a bunch of money before running.

Integrity, plain and simple. And the rest of us will have to put faith in and trust that the dev team have the integrity to reserve the 76% that were pre-mined for those that fold. If that 76% were to suddenly be dumped onto the market, there would be nothing for folders to receive, and it would completely destroy this project. Which would completely invalidate all of the work the dev team has been doing for the last several months. To the devs - transparency is KEY. This has to be addressed, those mining/folding for this coin need to see the wallet address where the pre-mined coins are stored and be able to follow the transactions in its blockchain.

In my opinion, the feeling that I get is that we can trust the devs to do the right thing. Believe me when I say that if my instincts were different, I would have no problem calling them out on it (see my posts on the Aphrodite scam coin thread).

As with any alt coin release, I can fully understand yours and anyone else's concerns. If you want to play it safe, don't invest any more resources into obtaining this coin then what you can afford to spend (mining/folding/investing on an exchange). Or don't mine/fold for it at all. I for one plan to mine the shit out of it.

Integrity is indeed key in many aspects of life. I have the domain curecoin.info reserved but not yet active. This domain will hold a fully transparent ledger of all transactions that are done with the folding funds and dev funds. I have openly shared my identity in various places, if you have not yet followed me on Google + here is the link to my personal page. https://plus.google.com/u/0/+joshsmithCygnusXI Add me to your circle and feel free to Google chat with me. I plan on hosting Google hangouts to discuss Curecoin and its making, among other items.

I intend to run Curecoin in a 100% transparent manner. Curecoin is compatible with TX messages and all TX for the ledger will have comments for intended use and dates for an easy human readable ledger system.

Thanks for the support, don't forget to follow me on Google Wink

And also for the FAH security another advantage that FAH has that wouldn't work with a smaller networks is FAH is much larger and thus much more equipped to handle things like mass DDOS attack or people trying to submit fake work units. Also a thing was recently released showing F@H as the strongest Distributed Computing network out there.

Plus because of how larger they they are they also have backing from companies especially companies like Google with insane amounts of resources - and Stanford with many connections.

And lastly the recent success of gridcoin helps back up this being possible - no one has knocked down Boinc which is weaker than F@H.
