Was going to use it in an HTPC but the onboard video is actually not half bad - plays all ripped DVD's and MKV Blu-Ray rips.

So, is it worth while to put it to use folding? How many ppd am I looking at?

It has 48 cores, same as the neutered 9600gso 512. (the original had 96 cores) while it will run the gpu3 WU's, it will do so very slowly. my 560 has 336 cores 7 times as many and does 10 -11k per day. you should get somewhere around 1-1.5k PPD. it was designed and bult for HTPC, and isn't much good for anything else. low end gaming maybe. it should kick butt on quake3. ;)

Had a feeling that would be the case. Might just let it sit then.
