    on the idea of this topic, http://klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=89219
    and the idea of jaigandhi5, i thought we could create a forum team, since i know there alot of members here and im sure we would have a pretty big team.
    but its just the idea of what service to take, the 2 i know of are
    Folding @ home
    and seti http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/

    or maybe create one group at each and leave it up to the indivdual what to pick?

    what do you think?

    Sounds good to me, often my pc is just web browsing and using messanger and other small resource apps, so it would be good to know that its potential would not be going to waste, and doing something to contribute to the world

    Still need my game time though

    yeah. im sure it will reduce its useage the more u use the pc. so you can do your stuff without it interfering, and making you use it less.

    Excellent, so I can run a game and it only uses the idle cpu, rather than lagging up the games cpu usage? In which case, it would be great

    yeah, the folding at home has an option to change what percent cpu it uses, well max it can use, so u can just slide it down a notch to where u want, or try playing your game with it full and see if it automatically uses less cpu.

    Okay.
    I just changed my team affiliation from Team 32 to this one.
    Team 32 is Overclockers. com ( 3rd highest ranked) and I like playing for winners....
