Which Client? Which Drivers?

Post by Bikerz »

Just trying to setup a folding system on my Q6600 and my GTX 280. What shoudl I download?

# SMP client (MPICH)

The Deino SMP client doesn't work in 64 bits OS. So you should use the MPICH version.

CUDA enabled drivers can be downloaded here : http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_get.html

Yep, you can run the GPU client in Windows Vista x64.
