How Quick....

Will a GTX470 fold?! :D

[iGoD ReleNtLeS]

They say ~14k for a 470 and ~17k for a 480, although there are said to be several major bugs with folding on the 4xx range with the GPU2 client, and they are said to be ironed out in the GPU3 client.

Considering your Folding career so far has run from March 09 until July 09 and you want to be competitive, I'd ask 'Copter to quote you for a rig. That way you could Fold like fury for a quarter of the day (as you intend) for a third of the year, revert to being a slacker & yet still be top of the heap :)

No need! Amy, ou just need to set up the SMP client, and the GPU client, and that machine will pump out some serious points!! I only had my olf pc on for about 8 hours every day, and look at how much points I got in a few months of folding.

If you need help setting it up just post a thread and we'll help! I am actually looking forward for this one! I bet the 470 will knock out some good ppd.
