It has been over a year since ATI got into the Folding@Home project and it seems that the time is right for NVIDIA to join in. Mr. Vijay Pande himself was in town giving the presentation on behalf of Stanford University and the project team that he leads. It seems that the folding team was able to program a folding client in C thanks to the NVIDIA CUDA software environment. NVIDIA has 70 million graphics cards on the market today that can use CUDA programming, which means that the folding project could get a huge boost in performance if more end users would join the project.
