Overclockers Folding@Home Team Spotlight #85
by dfonda

Quote:

Our Overclockers.com Folding@Home Team has been running member spotlights for quite some time – this is the 85th feature in our series of Folding Spotlights!

Thank you for the interview Onefstsnake!

Dfonda: When did you join the Team onefstsnake ?
Onefstsnake: Late October of 2009. EOC stats.

D: If there was something recent that you did that you wanted your fellow team members to know about, what would it be?
O: I built a new rig that is used only for folding till I move into my new place(I7+GPU@10kppd).

D: What part of the world do you live in, and if you don’t mind telling, what town?
S: Dumfries,VA. (Pronounced Dumb Freeze lol)

D: How did you initially hear about F@H?
O: Just browsing the OCforums and stumbled on the teams. The folding for a cure is what really made me want to learn more. I have had a few friends and relatives that have passed on because of cancer and other diseases related to folding.

D: After starting, why do you continue to Fold?
O: The challenge! To push as much PPD out of my rigs as possible. Along with doing my part in the search for a cure for these diseases.

D: What do you do for a living?
O: I am the Commercial Sales Manager at the local Auto Zone here in Dumfries.

D: What do you do for fun?
O: Check my EOC stats!....I have way too many hobbies! I like building scale WWII armor models. I also keep poison dart frogs, as well as a few fish. I enjoy working on my cars. Going to the shooting range or hunting when I have time. I just picked up coin collecting, and bought some 1500+ year old Roman coins.

D: Is there anything special you do in your spare time that you really enjoy?
O: I really love driving my 1993 Mustang Coupe. I have wanted one since I was 8. Four years ago I finally bought one. I have replaced the entire suspension and most of the drive train. Awesome car! I also enjoy the outdoors, just started hunting last year with a friend and got an 8 point whitetail!

D: Time to spill your guts. What are the stats of your main folding rig? Why is it your fave? What all do you use the rig for?
S: I7 920 DO 3.8GHZ@1.26v,Corsair H50, Asus P6X58D Premium, 6GB G.Skill Pi1600 DDR3 RAM, Corsair HX1000W PSU, eVGA GTX285 Classified, WD Black 500GB HD, WD Black 1TB HD,WD Velociraptor 300GB HD, HAF 932 case.

D: Do you have a Borg-Farm? If so, how many, and what are they?
O: 3 rigs. Only 2 running at the moment. The I7, Phenom 545 4GB, and an Athlon 64x2 2GB.

D: What are your future goals? What do you most want to accomplish with your life?
O: Close on my first house and get married! After that I want to meet my biological parents. Maybe go back and finish college. I am sure I'll think of more.

D: If there is something you want to tell the team, then spill your guts! What have I missed in my questions that could help the team learn more about you and who you are?
O: I would just like to say thanks to the people of Team 32! A lot of you have helped me get my clients running and running them at max production.

D: A few Pics of your Farm, Hobbies, even you! Etc.
Snakes Pics!
