    Default Mays Folding@Home Contest, Win a GIGABYTE AMD Radeon HD6950

    3666.jpg

    The prize this month is a 2GB GIGABYTE Radeon HD6950. Information on the card can be found here

    Here are the rules for this month contest. Please read them carefully because I have some bonus entries for you if can make them.

    1. Must be an active Folding@Home member on team 41608 the Bjorn3D team during the month of May.

    2. Must post at least 5 post in the Bjorn3D forums under your Folding@Home name. If Folding for my daughter Stephanie the first part of your name should be your Folding name if you can. This is so I can find you to tell you if you won.

    3. Must have a USA Shipping Address.

    Now here is the fun part. All people that meet the rules get 1 entry in the bowl for the drawing. For every extra 5 post in the forums during the month you get another entry. And to really get you to work hard Folding, if you are in the top 20 24 hour Folding Point Chart you get an extra 5 entries. You can find the chart info here.

    So I am offering many ways to get extra entries.

    Good luck to all.

    Scott

    I'm in...NOT

    I've recently won the same Gigabyte HD6950 two months ago and I would happily use 2 in cross-fire. But...I'll pass this one and let other people have the chance to win such a great card.

    GOOD LUCK everyone!

    Wow Scott, this is an awesome change to the standard folding competition. This is a great way to raise interest and get people moving. No longer do you have to have a ton of money and the top hardware to win the top hardware. Great idea!

    Throw my name in the hat. I am currently reconfiguring my systems, but I know that I will be able to place in the top 20 by the end of the month.

    Are there any useful folding cards other than nvidia? It would be great to have the ATI/AMD cards participate via the OpenCL folding client. Makes me wonder what the problem is developing the folding client for the cards.

    Converting the system here over to water cooling, and may be out of the mix for a day or two. It should be fun!
