Is it possible to run more than 1 set of F@H (CPU & GPU) and WCG clients on the same computer?
I was just curious if you had like a quad core and set 2 or 3 sets of clients to run at the same time if it would work ... or even would you seen any extra results?
if you run these clients on 2 different computers can you still use the same name and everything?
and the last thing ... i signed up for both teams now (hopefully i did the WCG right i ran it for a night and still have all 0's for my stats on their site) as soon as i get my 280 back i will be ready to get back i should be back up and running
couple quick questions ... you know i love them :)

Boinc is mufti threaded and F@H has an SMP client http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther. I set Boinc to run 3 threads on my quads and use the standard CPU and GPU clients for two threads of F@H. I think if you run the F@H SMP and Boinc as well as the GPU2 client your system will get sluggish as well as impacting (fighting for CPU priority) the DC software.
I don't say WCG as there is a lot more to Boinc than WCGLast edited by Archer; 12-28-2009 at 01:52 PM.
