Folding: How do i set up on 720 PHII ?
How would i go about getting the most PPD out of my new Phenom II 720? Should i have thre clients for each core? I'm not sure how.... or even where to begin but with a little help i want to put this cpu to the cause.

For the best ppd, folding in vmware running some sort of linux would be the best way. There are several guides, including notfreds, bal3wolf, and error10. You can fold on all three cores using vmware player 3.

You won't need to do anything differently than with a 4 core system. The Windows client runs with 4 threads, 1 per core, by default so you'd be fine with one instance. You could try two instances and see what the ppd is but I doubt it would be much of a boost and may even be worse that just one instance.

Enter the Fold...

Does the SMP use 2 cores or 4 max? If 4, one SMP client will be enough for a tri-core.
If 2, one SMP client and one standard tray client should do the trick.

EDIT: And your probably gonna need to get the drop in executable which is located right below that. Make sure you follow this "NOTE: Please use the v6.23 installer package to setup the SMP client. Then download the v6.24 "drop-in" binary below to replace the expired v6.23 client executable. A new installer package with v6.24 will follow shortly."
