Seth, what would I need in terms of mainboard, cpu, psu to run that GTX 550ti?

You’d need an open PCI Express slot, anything from a Duo-core and up, and a 400W power supply.

Hey Seth...if a GTX 550ti gets about 15K PPD. What the hell are you running to get ~400K PPD? I only fold while idle and being an IT professional, there isn’t much idle time, but I’m only getting a paltry 300 PPD. 400K is just insane.

I’m running two GTX 970 SSCs right now. They’ll do about 600k ppd combined, if left to fold instead of other computing. I also have a dedicated folding rig with a GTX 760ti making around 70k ppd on average, but it goes down a lot due to a shitty processor.

We’ve been having a good battle for the past few weeks with the Folding For Liberty team, but since Frank is back to crushing it, we’re pulling away from them.

Seth cracks 100,000,000. Insane.


I’m a mere 98,000,000 behind.

The Ratebeer team is folding away at slot #250. Wow!

A great way to start the new year.
