New Client Released - V7.6.21

Post by PantherX »

Please note that the latest version of the client has been released: V7.6.21
You can download it from here: https://foldingathome.org/alternative-downloads/

Please note that the folding performance will not change as that is dependent on FahCore which remains the same across V7.4.X, V7.5.X and V7.6.X
