Fold Faster on GPUs With FahCore_17
A great milestone has been achieved in the area of folding on GPUs with the release of FahCore_17. Currently, it is in public beta and will eventually be rolled out to all supported GPUs once the public Beta testing is done. Here are some highlights:
1) Faster and more stable than before
2) Native Linux Support on Nvidia (AMD support will be once the drivers are imrpoved)
3) Better code base
Moreover, Yutong Zhao (Proteneer) a GPU programmer at the Folding@Home will be doing a Reddit IAMA where he will answer your questions so check it out -> Link

FAH Highlights and Updates
Over the past week or two, the Folding@Home (F@H) project has undergone some pretty significant changes. We first start off by a new video that explains (in layman terms) what the F@H Project is about and how one can participate. Following the release of this catchy video, a redesigned website is up and running which can be viewed here. On the updated homepage of F@H, you will find the latest public relase of V7.3.6 which has a very easy to understand interface and doesn't require any technical information to set-up. It is cross-platform compatible thus, can run on Windows, Linus and OSX. A brief overview of the new features is available below for those who fancy detailed descriptions. Please read the content after the break.
