Default start folding with your nividia 88xx or new cards now

http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandeg...tray-612b6.msi

this is a direct download for the GPU client for Cuda enabled cards

*a GeForce, Quadro, or Tesla card that supports CUDA card which supports CUDA (G80 or later for the most part)
*A CUDA capable driver, version 174.55 or later
*32-bit Windows operating system, XP or newer; 64-bit Windows operating systems appear to currently be incompatible

these new cuda enabled cards are capable of cranking out the WU's. iirc the PS3 is capable of like 170 MOIs a day, and a quad core CPU is like 70 to 90ish i think, and a cuda card is about 100 MOI a day. im just going off of memory, so dont get all hissy if these numbers arent 100% correct. they should be close tho. basicly, a cuda card will beat a quad core in cranking out WUs.

now im wondering if you can have F@H woking on your CPU and then have F@H runnig working on your GPU ?

No no don't do it.

Let us folks on Team GruntvillE work out all the kinks of the beta for you before Team PimpRig starts using it.

Quick bump for you Nvidia Folders. I put the Cuda drivers on my G8800 card, and killed the CPU clients. FahMon is showing that box at over 4K PPD! Running one console client on each of the cores and the GPU, the box was doing around 1k PPD! I have to go to work, will update how this works out.

Hi Guys. I haven't been here in ages. I am still folding. I just switched to the GPU folding client and I am producing over 1.5K a day on my overclocked 8800GTS (G92). I am folding for Thrasher2.

EDIT: My actual production numbers may be higher, I was looking at my stats at Folding @ EOC. Now that I fixed FahMon I will have a better estimate.

Oh goody. I get to deal with the T2 Army again. Woohoo. Pretty sad when my score singlehandedly stomps that score down to the ground. Let alone count all the other grunts that out produce them.

Gruntville continues to nip away at your lead.

I am sorry nucrash, my former picture was not accurate. I forgot my little laptop. So I wanted to get the correct screen shot for you. Sorry, only getting 8200PPD in this shot. I might have a borg around somewhere...

Well I got pressed into all this folding nonsense again by Dex earlier. But running it on my 9800GX2 doesn't seem to work...any ideas?

All I get is the below...it just runs test proteins. I read something about an incompatibility with 64-bit Windows, which could be it....I am running the 175.12 drivers which are apparently compatible.

Come on my fellow Pimps, I know some of you are using Nvidia 8800 cards. Get your GPU stuff folding, or we will be passed by the furniture movers in 2.9 months!

Step up and get to work Pimps!

Just installed the GPU client on my 8800GT ... considering installing the SMP, but for now at least I've got the Core and GPU running simultaneously.

Where did you get those screenshots that show your PPD progress?

[Edit -- I'm an idiot -- FAHMon ... skip that last question ... ]

That is what I am talking about! More 8800's being Pimped out! They can crank out some points. Got some folding goodness enroute from the 'Egg. As long as the GPU's crank out the points, I will build some AMD dual core CPU's with 8800's to replace some socket A folders... Merry Christmas to one of my borg owners!

Well, actually, my Mom called and she mentioned her computer was slow... I told her not to worry, it will be fixed soon.
