Welcome to the home of the Abit-Wolves! Team Abit originated in late 2002, when a handful of overclocking enthusiasts and mods at the abit forum saw what valuable research folding is, and stepped up to lead the way to where we are today. Like an extended family of friends from around the world, we truly care about the research and our brother- and sister-wolves.

Our forum, "The Wolves Den" is home to a multitude of great folding tips, many of which are bleeding-edge configurations for maximal production, reserved for our team members only. Also reserved for members-only are our Buy/Sell sections, and our "wolfpup" program, where parts or complete systems are donated by teammates and awarded to other members who want to run an extra system for the team. If you decide folding is for you, choose your team carefully. Choose to run with the Wolfpack, and rest assured we'll be there for you.

What is protein folding and how is folding linked to disease?
Proteins are biology's workhorses -- its "nanomachines." Before proteins can carry out these important functions, they assemble themselves, or "fold." The process of protein folding, while critical and fundamental to virtually all of biology, in many ways remains a mystery. Moreover, when proteins do not fold correctly (i.e. "misfold"), there can be serious consequences, including many well known diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington's, Parkinson's disease, and many Cancers and cancer-related syndromes.

What is Folding@Home?
Folding@Home is a distributed computing project run by Stanford University. It studies protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and related diseases. We use novel computational methods and large scale distributed computing, to simulate timescales thousands to millions of times longer than previously achieved. This has allowed us to simulate folding for the first time, and to now direct our approach to examine folding related disease. The program uses your unused (spare) CPU cycles. It is designed to give up CPU cycles when needed by other programs.


UPDATE: Main AS back up, but stats, etc will take some time

We got the Main AS back up and all looks good on that box.  The main systems will take some time to get completely back in order (say a couple of hours), but it's looking good so far.

FahMon 2.3.4 Released

FahMon 2.3.4 is now available for download. Please see the download page for details on how to get it.

For a comprehensive list of changes please view the changlog which is linked to from the homepage.

What's new in this release:

  • This version fixes the nasty bug in 2.3.3 which cause clients to fail to update after non-specific periods of time. This was caused by a typo in the update queue handler which now works properly.
  • CPU usage has been reduced slightly when refreshing clients thanks to a re-worked message logger.
  • clientstab.txt is now tab-delimited. This has no effect on FahMon, but may break compatibility with other tools that read this file.

As always if you find any bugs in FahMon please report them using trac
