RE: I have attained 1 Billion Einstein@Home BOINC Credits and #1 RAC - Update on the Hunt for a Pulsar!

in #gridcoin7 years ago (edited)

This is interesting! I haven't watch videos yet, have one quick question, can I use Linux computer, or it has to be Windows based? Edit: looks like there is Boinc for Linux, cool ;-)

Since I answered on my question, here is another one, so I don't waste the comment ;-)
If you have a weak computer, are there any projects that are better suited for weak computers?

Sort:  

Try researching those projects with shorter work units that focuses on CPU, one of them would be World Community Grid. Basically, as long as you own a CPU, even using current phone (try searching BOINC in AppStore, but not recommended to do on daily phone, given the heat dissipated is a lot and reduce your phone life span) also can contribute in researching. You can look at the below link to find out all the whitelisted list.

Happy Boincing and Gridding.

You can use a temperature limit in the app itself for that , so no problem.

Ahh, missed your reply sorry. Saw it on time to still upvote you :-)
OK will start with World Community Grid first.
And have lots of reading to do ;-)
