I have two boxen, one is an i5-3470 on Win7 and Radeon 7750 which folds CPU only (because AMD cards are no good for folding, right?) When I'm home and gaming, folding is paused.
The second box is a dedicated 24/7 folder: i3-2100 and GeForce GT 430.
I'd like to fold CPU/GPU.
Should I use WinXP, Win7 or something else? If Ubuntu, etc, I'll need a guide for *nix newbies.
Thanks!
(BTW, I'm disappointed the i5 doesn't get much bigger PPD than the i3! I guess HyperThreading goes a long way after all... I kinda' regret not going i7! )
