If the whole hive was in on this we would be #1 in a year! lol http://fahmon.net/ <- cool program to monitor you folding rig and calc your PPD. Get one soon. Rumors are circulating that they are disco'd. I am scrambling to pick up two more. |

GTX 295 is being unveiled 1-8-09 which is a dual GPU card with 2 GTX 280 GPU's coupled with 1GB 448 bit GDDR3 memory for each GPU. Kind of a dual GPU cross breed between the 280 and the 260. I'm going to pass on this one give it the full 512 bit memory buss of the 280 and they might have something.
The GTX 285 will be unveiled 1-15-09 which will be the 280 GPU shrunk with a 55nm mfg process. It will have higher clocks than the 280 and use less power. Suppose to be about 10% faster than the 280. The big qustion about this one in my mind is how much less power, how cool does it run and does it have more overclocking headroom then the 280. I'm interested in the 285 depending on how much it costs. At the lease it should drive down the price of the 280 that are already in stock. |

I am just running my video card on my desktop, not even running the CPU one anymore. You almost caught me. The power went down on my 280GTX rig over about a week. Back up. FEEL THE PAIN BITCHES!!! Im still coming after you and Im only using one client. Dont make me boot up another machine just to do that What are you using? ATI 4870 |

I'm out of the running (have been for a while, actually). All my servers are belong to us... No, wait. All my servers are back to doing that annoying "work" stuff. You'd think pumping fibre channel IO wouldn't interfere with Folding, but alas Folding has a noticeable impact on IO and fault injection.
Bummer. |

No prob. I may from time to time. I know we jumped a few slots as a team in the past month.

My rig with an i7 and two GTX 285's puts off so much heat that I'm probably going to shut it down as the weather warms up. I will start it back up when things cool off again.
My room has been a balmy 80*F all winter while the rest of the house is cold. I'm sure the Air woun't be able to cool my room this summer with my rig running. :( |

I joined up, figured I'd see what this was all about. I remember seeing something about this on tv about a year ago, for the ps3.
Anyways...got the GPU client currently running. It's taken about 1.5hours to get 10% on a job size of 8 million, FahMon says my ppd is around 2100 which, going by what I've read, isn't the best. I wonder if there's a way to speed that up without swapping video drivers...I'm a gamer and don't want to lose performance elsewhere to gain performance with this folding.
