Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Pentium D for GPU folding rig?
- Thread starter lassiterb
- Start date
I have an old Celeron (320 I think) powering 2 GPUs. A Pentium D with 2 cores should do just fine.
It's been a long time since I got mowed, there is a time for everything.
BTW, can you let me know if you can keep those cards in SLI?
I'd like to get one for the main rig if they can.

Yeah, I agree with the previous folders brother lassiterb 
I was messing around and folding with a C2D 6420 and a eVGA 8800GS temporarily (I'm reaching my budget max on light bills ) I didn't see any pernt loss against using the same card with one of my Q6600's. In my personal experience with the latest drivers (Vista 32 bit in my case because I was running the Win 7 beta OS) you don't see much more than 3% CPU usage (very rarely it goes to 5%, maybe more with the latest bigger WU's )
Please post your results, I think any modern day CPU is capable of using the GPU2 client and a CUDA capable card. I think the GPU does all the "heavy lifting" (of course I could be mistaken)

Will let you know, the first one arrives tomorrow and will hopefully be getting the other one within the next two weeks.
