Water_Hazard Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 not for the 580 there arent.. its only just been released.. drivers r brand spankers.. so nothing yet.. and im not going to an older board OR INTEL! lol Will that 1055t not run the big WU's? I know the PhenomII quads can't finish them in time but I would think the hexa cores could. Also, if you got another 580 you could probably mod an older drivers .inf file (one that works with the hack) and get sli working. Even if you don't get sli working just yet, you could still fold with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
camaro_dude15 Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 i'm pretty sure you need 8 cores physical or virtual to run the big adv units, and amd dont do that, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqopt Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 i'm pretty sure you need 8 cores physical or virtual to run the big adv units, and amd dont do that, If you need 8 cores to receive a -bigadv WU, and if you nevertheless think you have a fast enough 4-core box to complete a -bigadv on time, then I reckon you could just set up a virtual 8-core box on your 4-core box. In effect you'd fake out f@h into assigning you a big WU, and then you'd just take your chances on whether it would timely complete. Or you could just cut down all the hassle and rent a herd of VMs from some outfit like Rackspace or Amazon EC2 and not worry.

Lmao, i know, he is coming up behind me fast!, in january i get my student loan, hmm, new to me car, or a couple 580's and a new build, it might be cheaper to buy 10 used ps3's maybe we should buy him a couple new pc games, gpu intensive, that way he will have to stop folding! Almost to the end of the contest! Thanks everyone for making this possible! Edited December 13, 2010 by camaro_dude15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
