Honestly, since you are a cruncher/folder, I would suggest looking into selling the GTX680 and getting a HD7970. All I have crunching is the two rigs in my system specs. I was normally scored in 13th-14th place with just my i7 2600k and i7 860 cpus crunching. When the ATI wu's appeared, I jumped straight into PIE, all because of my single 7970. You get a 7970, and you'll definently get PIE every single day. Oh and about replacing the 210, the $125 HD7770 cards outscores even the GTX580. Don't know how the 680 actually performs, but iirc, the 580 beats the 680 in crunching/folding by alot.

MSI R7770-PMD1GD5 Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB 1...

A little chart put together by someone on WCG forums showing some of the top cards and how they perform compared to eachother.
