Re: Best way to fold?

Panther, you said you were using GTX 260s to fold right? Did you overclock them? If so, what type of 260 did you use (stock, overclocked, superclocked) and what were the settings? I hear the shaders are most important, so you can skimp just alittle on core and memory values?

Re: Best way to fold?

So, the SMP2 client works in command prompt, not a standalone thingamabob like the GPU? Do they plan to make a Nvidia specific one like the GPU3?

Re: Best way to fold?

Okay, some more questions, you guys got me really interested :D So, I have a passkey now, but what can someone do with it thats bad? Tamper with files and get you banned or something?

Re: Best way to fold?

My apologies! I'm still new to all this :oops: I intend on running it practically 24/7 on this desktop (except when gaming, when folding will be paused) and on 3-4 additional older desktops that I'm buying just for this purpose to run 24/7: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... :MEBIDX:IT I'm ...

Re: Best way to fold?

Oh, it's just that panther said that "If you plan to use the SMP2 Beta Client v6.30 on your system, you might have to occasionally monitor the system so maybe you can ask a friend, family member or you can use Ultra VNC, TightVNC to monitor it yourself if you can." So is there some manual ...

(1 CPU and 2 GPU) Or is it possible to fold with each core at the same time, so... Six instances running at once might be possible? Also, when using SMP2 Beta Client v6.30,...
