What is better at folding?

Post by DX »

I have an Optiplex GX240 with a 2.4 Northwood in it and an ATI 2400Pro. Should I have the folding done by the CPU or the video card?

Cool, wasn't sure. This is the 3rd stringer system at home.

Uhh, if the graphic card supports folding, I'd say go with the GPU. If it can't complete a WU in the deadline, then go use CPU folding.
