F@H petaflop barrier crossed!

We expect this number to continue to rise a bit more (maybe to 1.1 or 1.2 PFLOPS) as we switch over to running exclusively GB WU's.
looks like PS3 is folding like mad

Re: F@H petaflop barrier crossed!

Yeah, now M$ just need to make their console do some work. I got a nice triple core processor here on my left just sitting doing nothing while I'm not playing a game.

I agree, unfortunately M$ has shown no interest in a folding client for 360
xbox 360 should be able to out fold PS3 too because it has a 3 core cpu AND an ATI gpu, not to mention there are way more people who have 360 vs PS3

Re: F@H petaflop barrier crossed!

I'm not a game player so could never justify buying a PS3. But WOW!!!!!! they seem impressive @ folding.

Re: F@H petaflop barrier crossed!

My son wanted a PS3 for his birthday soon, so I guess it's one more reason to make his wish comes true.
