According to Foldingatwork.com, I will have 4000 points in about 5.75 days. I am currently averaging 59.53 points per day. That would bring me from the ranking of 182 to 177

At the next step of 5000 points would be around 22 days from now, would bring a big jump in standings due to the number of inactive and slower point gaining users in that range, jumping from around 177 to 157.

6000 points for me would take as much as 36-37 days, jumping to the point where deke-kun is at #140, who is an inactive user.

It would take me close to 6 months to reach 10,000 points.

(all of this based on current numbers)

    Go get em Dan. With a 2.25 you should be getting more points/day than that. I can almost do that with a ~1.7 AMD.

    On more than one occasion, I forgot to restart F@H after playing a game, and I didn't restart it until 8 to 9 hours later.

    there is no reason to stop FAH before you play your game. Just run it all the time

    Why should I do that, the game is always going to take 100% of the CPU cycles when it runs, right? So there really isn't a point to be running it while playing - I think.:scratch:

    I always did that when I ran SETI@Home.

    Um, ok, I guess I'll keep it running and see how it affects the game.:buck:

    dan, it only uses idle cpu cycles...so when the game is running it will not slow down the performance of the game at all...also games dont use 100% cpu all the time, if u ever notice the temps while folding gromacs will usally be a little higher than temps when playing a game.

    I have had noticeable slowdowns in Max Payne and GTA3 runs noticbly slower when F@H is running for me, so I had to close them before hand as I didnt want to put up with slower frame rates.

    I've noticed the same. In theory there should be no difference, but in practice there are a few exceptions.
