question about hardware

[SKW]

Hello fellow folders,

here is my question. I'm currently running a 6950 as my card for gaming and such. Am i able to put a gtx 460 in my machine and just fold with it?

Thanks
SKW

Yes you can.

[SKW]

sweet, thanks! (does the 1gb vs the 768mb differ in points that much?)

Now hopefully one comes on the forum for a good price :P

yup.

just make a shortcut on your desktop,right click properties, gpu -1 if it is the second one.
-2 if 3rd and so forth

There is a small difference between the 768MB and 1024MB in terms of folding capability due to the extra shaders but nothing huge.

Ok thanks. I will look for both.. Any certain make that is better?

try to dig a card that 1-doesn't squeal and 2-that outputs outside the case unless

you run your puter on a test bench 24/7..like old man dan here

if you plan to overclock, try to get a twinfrozr II card.
