Folding@Home (also known as F@H or FAH) is a distributed computing project run by Stanford University which studies protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and related diseases. Instead of using a single computer, it distributes the workload over thousands of computers around the world, to simulate timescales thousands to millions of times longer than previously achieved.

OCAU is currently the second-highest fifth ranked Folding@Home team in the world, not considering the standard Anonymous and Google based teams. The rankings in the Folding@Home statistics are of much pride, and are battled out between teams from everywhere united under almost any banner. OCAU was in stiff competition with the chief American team HardOCP, with the number 1 ranking changing hands often during the history of folding.

You can help Stanford University with the science by downloading and running the Standard Folding@Home Client or High Performance Client and entering your team number as 24 to join OCAU.

More information about OCAU's Folding@Home team can be found on the official Distributed Folding forum

We even have our own personal incentive badges of honor with Milestone forum signatures and avatars here.

You can Fold on pretty much any PC and every bit helps however for those who wish to enhance their Folding performance or build dedicated Folding machines we have a guide with a example machine and stats on most CPU and GPU performance.
