hmm... been reading folding for quite some time but i never actually bother. but since i open my pc for torrent nearly 24/7, might as well join in the fun and help out.

so, i got few questions:
1. my home pc specs are below, so should i use the i7 to fold or 5850 to fold? last time i heard there's no support for ATI to fold, is there any now?

2. i'm torrenting, will folding affect my speed?

3. while working, the pc's torrenting at home in my room, and usually i only on a fan. usually i'll open up the window for better air flow, but sometimes no coz my neighbour is doing renovation, kinda dusty. so, if i use 5850 to fold, it's going to be 95% load at all times right? mine's a reference heatsink, will that be sufficient? i scare the card overheat while i'm away, and died or get into some troubles. and burn my pc, and my house laugh.gif
