How are you coping with the core 15s? what do you have beta,advanced or nothing in the client type to get core 17s now
They kill everyone's PPD who is GPU Folding at the moment .... unless you're running under Linux of course, as Core 15 doesn't work with Linux - so I think the AS's are probably preferentially dishing out Core 17 WU's to Linux users, to the detriment of Win users.
arh thats a pain i was slowly climbing the ladder i only fold on gpus and windows thanks for the info will it work as good using a virtual linux on win7
John - that, I'm not sure about. Might be worth a search around because someone is bound to have tried it somewhere.
Through all my experiences of running linux folding through a VM on windows, you will get a performance increase. Go for it!
