If you do consider folding a benchmark, we have had a Fermi report if you haven't heard.

I make these bold assumptions about Fermi.

1) It will use about 320 watts when loaded up.
PCI SIG only allows 300 watts.
2) (1) Fermi GPU can produce 40K PPD, or more.
even with 48Kb of cache it still wont get that.
3) Fermi will fold near or exceed 4X the speed of the 200 Series GPU's.
What now takes 60 minutes to produce, will soon be done in 15 minutes.

Fermi will also have 1.5GB of memory, and have of 16 cores which contain 32 shaders each.
he is folding on over 200 processors. there is no way that is fermi. its just gpu3 beta. 31 gpu's and an i7. g80 and up are MIMD arrays of SIMDs. it sounds like it is a current gpu because he is getting 700 points per SM. that sounds like g92. i find it ironic that if there are 248 active cpus that means exactly 31 gpu's.
