To all Team Guru3D folders hail ! Now if you are in luck have a GeForce GTX series 400 card and want to fold for our team .. I heard that the computation power of the GPU is doing miracles for Folding.

The latest Folding@Home GPU client core released by Pande Group adds support for NVIDIA's latest GeForce 400 Series GPUs, using the NVIDIA CUDA GPU compute technology. Dubbed GPU3 core, this beta release of the Folding@Home client core packs several optimizations to harness the new GPUs. Apart from GeForce 400 Series, the core supports the full range of GPUs.

The developers don't recommend using it with ATI GPUs at this moment, as the software doesn't offer any advantage and could be buggy. They are, however, working on improving the software for ATI GPUs. The graphical and console clients using this core can be downloaded from here.
