We love our community!

EVGA is constantly striving to give back to the community that gives so much to Folding@Home research. To date we have awarded thousands of dollars worth of EVGA hardware to the cause, only to see that hardware be used for more folding! Return here regularly for updates and new promotions as they happen.

Earn EVGA Bucks For Folding with EVGA!

EVGA is excited to announce our 11th year of support for the EVGA Folding Community. Once again, we will be giving out EVGA Bucks to help EVGA Folders purchase new and better hardware to contribute with. We are also pleased to announce that we are not raising the points requirements this year! The first monthly milestone is 2,000,000 points (approx. 66,000 PPD), and the 2nd milestone is 4,000,000 points (approx. 133,000 PPD). Each will net 5 EVGA bucks for a total possible of 10 per month.

How it works:

You can earn up to 120 EVGA bucks if you earn a minimum of 4,000,000 points per month, or up to 60 EVGA bucks if you earn a minimum of 2,000,000 points per month. During the Year 11 promotion, you can earn anything from 5-120 EVGA bucks depending on your Folding@Home output. At midnight of the first day of every month we will take a capture of your points. Your count will then reset the following month so you will need to earn 2,000,000 or 4,000,000 more points that month to get more EVGA bucks. For each milestone, you will need to check in on the My Folding page to request your EVGA Bucks. To check your current 'folding year' point totals, check your My Folding page.

EVGA Bucks may only be used to purchase products in the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada, and select European countries.

How it works:

The second goal is 4,000,000 in points, which will equal an additional 5 EVGA Bucks for a total of 10 EVGA Bucks per month. For each goal reached, you will need to check in on the My Folding page to request your EVGA Bucks. To check your current 'folding month' point totals, check your My Folding page.

Rules:

By participating in the event, participant agrees to be bound by these Official Rules and regulations and the decisions of the sponsors are final and binding on all matters pertaining to this event.

Note: The Folding@Home utility is well-known to users of the utility, including associated hardware and software necessary to effectively run the utility, to force a PC to run at full-load for best results, although the utility (or associated utilities) may be used to configure the system to run below full-load. Using Folding@Home utilities will generally raise the power usage of your system and will very likely increase your monthly utility power bill. Additionally, due to the high load generally placed on a system through the Folding@Home utility or associated utilities, it’s possible that hardware may fail during your participation in Folding@Home or EVGA’s Folding@Home promotion. By choosing to participate in Folding@Home and EVGA’s optional Folding@Home promotion you agree and accept that your participation may incur additional costs due to an increase in power usage and/or hardware or software failure. By participating, you also agree to absolve EVGA of responsibility for any additional costs or damage incurred by use of the Folding@Home utility or any associated utility or similar utilities, including, but not limited to, an increased utility bill relative to Folding@Home usage, damaged hardware, corrupted software, loss of time and wages.
