    I've recently started folding with the FAH console version, but I would like to compare my results. This CPU (C2D E7500) is also computing integrated graphics (thus I'm not clocking my CPU higher because that would cause system instability) and I've attached a screenshot below ( Note: This image is 1600x900).

    Around every 23 minutes, one of my CPUs (dual core) finish 1 percent which is:

    ((23 x 100) / 60) = 38 hrs and 20 minutes

    Your time for WUs can differ greatly depending on how big your WU is. As well, there seem to be slower and faster spots in the WU.

    Should ask around in the Folding@Home thread in the Windows subforum for more information.
