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.

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

[ceewi1]

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

Will it make full use of the 64bit processor or will it only run like a 32bit?

[magicman]

The software is only 32-bit, if it were otherwise then it wouldn't run on the vast majority of 32-bit operating systems that people still have (myself included). The processor alone doesn't make software run in 64-bit. Your processor (as well as mine) will run both f@H versions in 32-bit.

Hmmm, okay, I'm thinking about bringing my C2D onto the scene...

Just a few questions:

Is this gonna clog up my computer with endless amounts of files?

Is it hard to set up?

[ceewi1]

No and No. Neither version will clog your computer up, although the console version is even better than the graphical version in that regard. Take a look at the setup guide for instructions, it's really quite easy.
