i wonder why they dont use both the CPU and the GPU in the PS3 for folding? that would surely give them a large boost. and why not release a client for the Xbox 360's GPU? that has unified shaders so it would be easy.


life with playstation=folding at home, right?

the new GPU clients for PCs are much easier to program for as they are designed with general purpose GPU computing in mind.. whereas the older ones (which feature in both the PS3 & 360) would have to be programmed in a very complicated manner.. and the benefits don't outweigh the potential headaches getting them to work. The RSX GPU in the PS3 currently takes care of the protein visualization.

360 client will never happen becoz of Red Ring of Death trouble..

Microsoft would not want to go to the trouble of making up a program that only shows up its much talked about RROD problems.

Life with Playstation is a program that includes 'channels' and one of the current two is the Folding@Home channel. The Folding@Home channel will always run.. but you can use other channels while work is still being done. They plan to add more channels later.

Lets face it this is a much safer way to find the cure to cancer than what they tried in I am Legend. I've been running none stop to make sure we find the cure before Krippen does.
