F@H supported on Nvidia Cards?
Btw link doesn't work for me , its an empty page ;/

That's my distorted picture!
The original can be found over at a certain site which reported about NVIDIA F@H client, but fumbled with the pictures. I didn't want to rat them out, but it still interesting news...

//AndreasGeForce GTX 280 is going to be a mighty beast. The GT200 core impressed us from the very beginning in matters of raw performance. Alas there have been little information on the real-life performance of the card, other than statements that it runs Crysis fine at certain settings and that it scores 7000 points in the Vantage Extreme profile. We've been provided some more solid information based on the performance in Stanford's Folding@Home client. A slide recently presented says that GeForce GTX 280 will be capable of folding slightly more than 500 mol/day, which is three times more than what Radeon HD 3870 can do, about 170 mol/day (according to the slide), or five times more than PlayStation 3; 100 mol/day.
The picture and angle it was taken from has been altered from the original
Try Again, it's working now
We do have a thread about this very topic: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=188726&page=1
And my setup can still take it.
4xOCed 3850 in CrossFireX will still outperform that.
But, I bought mine for games, so I'll just enjoy it for that.

Thank you for the picture then.
I'm very impressed,so I opened a new thread.

GTX280 will cost at least 3x as much as a 3870, so id be really ****ed if it wasnt 3x faster.....
nVidia presented us with the info that their new gear did exactly what it should. That shouldnt be news!

Sometimes, it's not your time. Sometimes, you have to make it your time. Sometimes, it can ONLY be your time.
Since when has the top of the price/performance curve typically been linear? That's never been usual state of affairs.
At any rate, for a single GPU card to boast anything like 3x 3870 performance is news. It's BIG news.
Sadly its never been linear, but I dont believe in paying 4x as much as 10% more performance.
If everyone thought like that, the price structure of hardware would be different.
Value for money >>> all else.
Oh- and nV say their new card is 3x faster. Il believe it when joe average pulls the same numbers.

i could care less, if i buy this card its for games and folding as a side project, i doubt someone would buy a $400+ video card to only fold with it

3x the folding power doesn't mean it will be 3x the gaming Performance
gtx 280 is freakin insanely fast.

In the UK, the 3870 was the top card for a while.
Do you mean performance or price? The 3870 is no slouch in performance/£, although- yea, it depends on the game

This isn't about Nvidia acpable to F@H.
If this proves to produce more PPD than a quad-core system with SMP, then yes, MANY people will.
People with farms could surpass that buying a rig for folding, where here, they could just stick a new video card in.

Since GTX 280 supports tri sli...
1 Card = 3x faster than 3870
2 Cards = 6x faster than hd3870
3 Cards = 9x faster than hd3870
In trisli 280 will freaking much faster than an cpu.
If 1 card gets 500points and cpu it's 125x faster.
In trisli or 3 cards it's freaking 375x faster!
There numbers are ridiclous and maybe FUD.
But yeah, DAMN!

Hmm, if folding performance is any representative of real life gaming performance, and the r700 should also be roughly 3x the 3870 (r700=2x rv770= 1.5x rv670), meaning that we should have a nice battle royal on our hands between the 4870x2 and gtx 280
Welcome to XtremeSystems
I`m assuming you just joined up if you have yet to discover that gains from mutli-gpu are not linear
On another note, it will be the 4870 going head to head with the 9900 GTX, not the 3870.

Is it not linear for folding? Well thats sucky programing.Welcome to XtremeSystems

Yeah I thought it would be fairly linear for folding (isn't it for cpus?)
isnt folding memory/cpu based and nonlinear
but we dont know what they did to get the number if if there are no stats it dosnt count, alll i see is NV with an ati card and their new one, im sure that it will score higher but CUDA is complex and it would take alot of work to make it efficient
also how can they rate it, the NV one should be like the ati when it 1st came out were it was doing simple ones and getting rechecked
5930k, R5E, samsung 8GBx4 d-die, vega 56, wd gold 8TB, wd 4TB red, 2TB raid1 wd blue 5400
samsung 840 evo 500GB, HP EX 1TB NVME , CM690II, swiftech h220, corsair 750hxi
F@H scaling depends on the WU- I pitted an E2140 @ 3.2GHz with single-channel RAM against an E66@ 3.2 with dual-channel RAM and the frame time for what I was working on at the time was the same.

I am always sceptical about the results a company is showing when it comes to promoting there own product. Its never an equal setup, 9/10 times there testing setup is in favour of the of there own product. I will wait for the websites reviews and benches.
