Hardware configuration: Intel i7-4770K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR3-2133 Corsair Vengence (black/red), EVGA GTX 760 @ 1200 MHz, on an Asus Maximus VI Hero MB (black/red), in a blacked out Antec P280 Tower, with a Xigmatek Night Hawk (black) HSF, Seasonic 760w Platinum (black case, sleeves, wires), 4 SilenX 120mm Case fans with silicon fan gaskets and silicon mounts (all black), a 512GB Samsung SSD (black), and a 2TB Black Western Digital HD (silver/black).
Proteins fold in solution, so all of the molecules you see in those Youtube sims not only have the forces of each other to calculate, but also the forces between each moleculed and the solution.
MW@home *may* work on simulations with as many nodes(stars, planets = molecules in protein) but in large, space is an empty vacuum.
Also consider that fah protein molecules are very close together, so each molecule affects many others directly. In space, the nodes are very far apart. It would seem to me the force calculations in MW are much simpler than in FAH.
But then I'm not a molecular biologist or astrophysicist, so this is just an educated guess.
Either that, or the data from Milkyway is much easier to compile in to VLIW instructions than the F@h data.
So than we will never really know except for opinions or guesstimation
Unless F@H and MW@H open up their programming code for all to see
According to economic analysts, Nvidia goes bankrupt in two years. And what then? Permanent development of GPU client for NV cards, from the viewpoint of economics, is meaningless.
i7-2600K@4.8 Asus P8P67 EVO 2x2GB GTX480
i7-920@4.0 GA-EX58-UD5 3x2GB 2xGTX560Ti
2x Xeon 5620 6x 2GB
2x Xeon 5645 6x 2GB
According to lots of doomsday cults, the world will end badly anyway and depending on which one you pick it might come sooner then later. Should we just stop breathing as well?
Those economist are wrong btw, Nvidia isn't in as much problems yet as some think. They have an diverse product lineup, not only gaming gpu's.
The purpose of this site is support of the Folding@Home project. The purpose of this forum is Discussions of General-FAH topics. Unless there is something truly unique to say about the topic "wrapper of F@H for BOINC," it is time to just let it die.
