don't i know it...however i'm still waiting for the GPU client that actually supports my HD4670...i've got errors for no good reason and my SMP which before didn't work is now working tremendously well
oh well...guess the SMP will do for now

Hey, some good news is good!
NewEgg is still running this sweet deal on an 8800GTS! I bought a few.

Sure the 8800GT is bloody fast doing what it's good at but the value of the single-core client is work that is impossible, literally ZERO PPD, for a GPU client. Yet the GPU client gets such a massive PPD.

I like the $45 8800 gs it gives about 4200ppd stock 4800 with some OC.

That's me but I'm using ATI 4850 card.
The score is much better than CPU client.

That is a really good deal!

How do you get electricity to your computer that's with you in that rock you live under?

Yeah, the Nvidia cards have extremely bloated PPD numbers compared every single out client out there including the SMP and PS3 ones. My 4850 does get average 2900PPD now though.
