Just saw a facebook post about a new gpu folding ap that is supposedly faster than the cpu client: folding.typepad.com/news/2012/07/new-gpu-powered-algorithms.html

Anyone know anything?
 
I hope so. The GPU front needs some lovin'. Not much new on the CPU front for folding in the last couple of years, and it'd be nice to close the performance gap of sub-$1000 folders. We could get more involved that way, for one...
 
this seems to be for their local HPC cluster...
" new GPU-powered clustering algorithm"

V7 is newish... and is a combined gpu and cpu client.


...Considering they have not had any machines that fit the bigadv guidelines to benchmark it on...I would doubt that their old cluster was anything fancy and would be easily outclassed by whatever nvidia bribed them with... I mean donated...
