How to install folding@home client v8 on Fedora?

Hi.

I'd like to install F@H client v8.3 on my Fedora 40 machine. For v7 I know there is an rpm package. Is there also one for v8? If not, is there some guide how to install F@H on an "unsupported" Linux distro like Fedora?

Re: GPU PPD - NVidia vs. AMD

Thanks for the insightful replies! I will probably go with AMD so I hope they will improve the drivers in the foreseeable future.

GPU PPD - NVidia vs. AMD

Hi, I was looking at the GPU PPD database ( https://folding.lar.systems/gpu_ppd/overall_ranks ) and was wondering why all the top places are taken by NVidia. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX does not even make the top 15. In other metrics (like gaming) it's comparable to a 4080 but even the 3080 or 4070 seem ...
