I wouldn't think a P4 could keep up with the 3870X2. My [email protected] is only getting about 73% GPU usage according to ATI CC with a 3850 512MB. Now my other card is working @ 99% with a 1.9ghz Athlon X2, but it's a 2600XT 512MB card with a lot less shader power.

Fired up a 3850 and 2600XT with the new GPU2 client and it's working great, and making good point production. Has anyone else started using this client?

The 2600's may not be the best gaming GPU's out there even for those on a budget, but I do hope they're good folders. Legit, no reviews yet on the 2600 cards? Any reason why the hold out?

I later found out from mhouston that the 7x00 series GPUs had limited registers, and the looping/branching wasn't robust enough to handle the latest GPU code they wanted to run. http://forum.folding-community.org/ftopic16684-0-asc-120.html "We started originally on NV4X hardware. The hardware w...

I'd like to be in, thanks.

According to Stanford, the nvidia 7X00 series GPU's ran the folding code too slowly to be worth while, but I was wondering if anyone has tested it. I would think since they've had it running before it should work fine. The only problem is the part of the code that checks out which card you have runn...

And vrioux passes me by. . . ack! Sir, I'd hate to see your electric bill!

thanks to Lexic for the post on FAH.

C2D might not be too far away.......

I picked up an E6600 for 269.99 from microcenter in dallas a couple of weeks ago for my Gigabyte 965 DS3 and it's been quite the performer! I OCed it to 3.0 for now but I think I may have some more headroom in it.

With Nvidia bogged down in driver hell with Windows Vista, it may not be on their radar right now. I know Vjay has posted that the 8800 series will be added to the list of folding GPUs as soon as the bugs are worked out.

This is some good news! Finally a Windows SMP client is on the horizon!

Very nice loot indeed!

x1600 Pro AGP 575 core/805 mem. 21min a frame
x1900 GT PCIe 540 core /1315 mem 11min a frame

I'm still holding my own!

When is a good time to check back on the drawing? Thanks Apop,

Jeff

Noticed my name hadn't showed up on the entered list. Any reason?

There are a few early benchmarks here on the card. Looks to be similar to a GT with 36 shaders, but probably faster due to the new 80nm process = higher clocks.
