| Apex Advanced Techie  |  Folding@Home client for the PS3 Found this on the Folding@Home news page today. 8/23/2006 PS3 client announced today. Today in Germany, Sony demoed their Folding@Home client for the PS3. For more details, check out our PS3 FAQ. Using the Cell processor of the PS3, we should be able to do more folding than what one could do on a PC. Also, since the PS3 has a powerful GPU, the PS3 client will offer real time visualization for the first time. Check out the PS3 FAQ for some early movies of that. The PS3 client and GPU client are together part of our new broader goals to push Folding@Home to the next stage, reaching calculations on the petaflop to 10 petaflop scale. We have some preliminary details on our Folding@Home Petaflop Initiative (FPI). We will release more details on all of this as the new software rolls out. We are beta testing the ATI GPU client software internally at the moment and will likely announce an open beta in four to five weeks (end of September).

| Apex Tech God  | This is a great add on to the PS3 line up for sure. But I am really getting sick of all the talk, lets start seeing it in action. It seems the announce something new every week that this machine will do but theres not much for us to see it in action. Let alone the November deadline is right around the corner which I still think the PS3 will not make it out till after Jan. Sorry I just needed to vent....lol | |
