What do you mean, "the same speed"? I would have thought that Intel would be better since it is designed to use SSE2

All AMDs from socket 754 on use SSE2....

how is it now with the GPU-folding of the program? are NVidia cards supported already? (7800GTX?

)

would be nice if you could run 2 Cores folding, and 2 GPU's all at the same time

That would be sweet indeed

As far as the 7800GTX is concerned, I am afraid that the F@H Stanford research team said it does not perform sufficiently well enough for them to do it because of the pixel pipelines. But two X1950XTXs and you would be a folding god

As well, they have not developed the program for Crossfire or SLi, so two cards doesn't perform as well as one currently. I would suppose, though, that in the future they would try to figure something out for that.

And just think:
I have been folding a:
1Ghz P3 24/7
my D 820 dual programs roughly 12 hours a day.

now, I have a 90% chance of:
D820 24/7
1Ghz app. 12 hrs/day

Yay! Now I might be able to defend my 5th place a little better

And, it should give the team an extra boost with stats too.

I should be back Tuesday.

does anyone know how i can set up F@H on my AMD WinXP 64bit machine?

**ceewi1** · 10-07-2006, 09:02 AM

Have you tried the same method as with the 32-bit edition? I'm not aware of any known issues.
