Good work, keep it up. Actually that's what I am posting about. I realized that our progress in the top 1900 is ROUGH at best. As it stands, we're ~ 1888 however there are 4 teams within striking distance and based on our avg daily WU turnover they'll pass us very soon... which means we're back down to 1890's if we wanna get into the top 1000 we gotta do more ppl! so here's my call to arms fellow GATTers!!! fold those units and let's move up the ranks! HOO RAH!!!

Stanford University has been releasing GPU clients for AMD graphics cards for some time now, and there's even a GPU2 client in the works (the beta is available here). Somewhat surprisingly, though, Stanford has yet to release a GPU client that can harness the computing power of Nvidia's latest and greatest graphics processors.

That will all change soon; according to PC Perspective, Folding@home project head Vijay Pande made an appearance at an Nvidia meeting in San Jose, California to show an Nvidia version of the GPU client. PC Per says the software was shown running on an unannounced Nvidia product, so details are sparse for the time being. However, the Nvidia-compatible client looks to be on the way regardless.

GeForce GTX280 folds three times faster than Radeon HD 3870
Written by Andreas G 23 May 2008 09:24

GeForce GTX 280 is going to be a mighty beast. The GT200 core impressed us from the very beginning in matters of raw performance. Alas there have been little information on the real-life performance of the card, other than statements that it runs Crysis fine at certain settings and that it scores 7000 points in the Vantage Extreme profile. We've been provided some more solid information based on the performance in Stanford's Folding@Home client. A slide recently presented says that GeForce GTX 280 will be capable of folding slightly more than 500 mol/day, which is three times more than what Radeon HD 3870 can do, about 170 mol/day (according to the slide), or five times more than PlayStation 3; 100 mol/day.

for real.. about time... about damn time... will finally have something for this 8800gt to do other than peong game...

Not likely. They ONLY made mention of the up an coming GT2xx series. Which means the older cards are likely still out to pasture. Unlike AMD, whose' gpus have been very consistent in design and scaling since the dawn of the HD series and in fact were ALWAYS geared towards GPGPU applications, nvidia is geared towards gaming. The new GT series will be geared more towards GPGPU applications and hence why Stanford NOW took interest. That aside, I studying that they say teh GT280 is approx 3x more powerful, but keep in mind that there is the 3870X2 which means even with CURRENT TECH AMD is already 66% as powerful on a card that does even best a 9800GTX 100% so if we were to extrapolate... what will a HD4xxx series do? or even worse a HD4xxxX2?
