    Default Got the GTX680 Folding

    Well it is not really supported yet and does not have a client that takes advantage of it. But messed around with the 7.x beta today before going to work and got her started on Folding. I hope Stanford comes out with a Folding@Home client soon for it. If it does well then may buy another 680 or look for a GTX690.

    The cores aren't as strong though. Think of it kind of like Bulldozer modules except not as crappy.

    The people who buy those probably have enough money to not care. They just want the best of the best, probably buy 2, and the backend is probably a 3960x.
