once i sorted my pc ill get on there, should work quite well, can use 3 cores for folding whilst gaming then use all 4 and my gpu when not :)
lets see who can rack up the highest score?

[Jonny2Bad]

Well im the only 1 in the novatech team at the mo the folding only uses 25% of all cpu power so pretty minimal really.
