I'm putting together a folding rig by the end of this week. I'll be using 2 x 470s on it, but have an extra PSI-E slot I'm not using. If you'd like, I could use your 8800.

Drop me a pm with your address

Guys,

My GPU clients arent receiving work units and have trouble sending them. Especially the GPU3 client, i have to close the client and restart it everytime to send a finished unit and get a new work unit. Logs say status 501. Anyone facing this situation or is it only me??

Good stuff man.

Yeah, traded my 480 for a 470 so another 470 should be here soon. The two asus 470s go in my folding rig, the EVGA one goes in my gaming rig.

Also, got a 8800 coming next week

Hmm...I could do that but I think the 470 would handle physics better than the 8800. I'll look into it though.

PS:
So, I almost have all the parts for my dedicated folding/crunching rig together. However, there are a few small things I'm missing. Maybe someone could help me out:
2 x 120mm fans (both should be identical so I can out them in push/pull around the radiator of my Eco Coolit for the Q6600

I use a Geforce 210 for physx in one machine, and it gets the job done just fine, an 8800 is more than enough.

But won't the 470 handle physics better on its own? Or would having a dedicated 880 for physics help out the 470?

You can have a 470 run a game and have physx turned on, and do just fine, as long as your not running a 30 inch monitor. If your talking about having a dedicated physx card, anything will do.

I have a 28" monitor @ 1920x1200.

But my question is, from a physx performance point of view, would a dedicated 8800 do better than a 470 handling both graphics and physics?
