However, it does load your PC - so it will make heat, noise, and raise your power bill.
Doing it short term for a goal such as this, its not a big deal - i'm likely to join in myself, and help TPU out.

*Mighty Mouse will fold 24/7 on CPU and GPU.
*Quadfather will fold 24/7 on GPU, 20+ hrs. a day on CPU. I will need my anime fix to keep me sane. I can put games on hold for a few weeks.
