With a GPU folding does not have any control other than working or not.

If your system has an Nvidia GPU you can simply install MSI Afterburner or several other types of software that control power limits. Often you can get a much greater deal of efficiency by reducing the max power to the GPU, but it comes at a slight cost of overall folding speed.

The software is a great way to limit power, control fan speeds, and increase the power efficiency.
Fold them if you get them!
