I currently have two quad core systems folding with the virtualized CPU client and they are drawing 289w combined. These systems are always running anyways as file servers so who cares if they have a bit higher load, it doesn't seem to draw that much more power than usual. I think it was running around 255w before I started folding.

Does anyone else have issues trying to get Folding@Home working with ATI 5870? I'm running Windows 7 64bit, I have a feeling that there are no working drivers for this :(

And to make it related to the thread, I want to make this work so I can increase my power usage :P
