Folding @ Home GPU and Win 7 Sleep mode
Posted: Sun May 13, 2012 11:11 pm
Will windows 7 sleep mode interrupt my folding? (is it necessary to change the power options so that my folding rig never sleeps?)

You may also want to look at whether the CPU is throttling down its clock speed when F@h is the only load on the system; not sure about Win7 but this was definitely an issue on Linux with AMD's Cool 'n' Quiet feature. Solution for CPU power management throttling is to either disable CPU power management, or configure the F@h client to run at "Low" instead of "Idle" priority.
