can 7800GTX do F@H? i'll put my q6600 on it and my 7800GTX, and what about internet bandwidth, i'm downloading a large file right now, do i need things like that turned off or just lessen the bandwidth settings for it?

okay, now what about proxy, does it speed it up or anything?

forget about proxies. and F@H uses like 110% of your GPU, and some memory and cpu.

F@H uses almost no internet bandwidth and when it does it's only for a few seconds. Don't bother setting up a proxy unless you're terrified of Stanford and don't want them knowing your IP address.

The Geforce 7 series (your card) isn't supported by the GPU client, so use the SMP client for your CPU.

65th now?!?! How'd that happen? I've been folding on my 4850s, but are they that powerful? I always thought that they folding client for 4XXX GPUs was crap and didn't work properly.
