To get started you will need to download the BOINC manager here: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/
Then you need to Add project from the tools menu and put in the url: http://boinc.vgtu.lt/vtuathome/
It will prompt you to make an account / username and then you can join team: [H]ard|OCP
After that in BOINC you can setup computing preferences like percentage CPU usage if you want to limit the number of threads or things like that. Ask if you have any questions and feel free to come down to the DC forums to join the discussion. Any help will be appreciated!
Why am i posting this in the AMD forum you ask? Because things like DC are why i bought a Ryzen in the first place since 16 threads of awsome = 16 tasks at once in boinc!
