It's normally best to pause for gaming.

Yes, the GPU client will use a lot of your cards processing power and will therefore cause slower than normal game play.

Isn't it only supposed to use the % that isn't being used when you're gaming, so that if you're using 100% then it will completely back off or is that just true for your cpu?

Yeah and Cool 'n Quiet is suppose to use 100% of your system when the system calls for it.

Things don't always work out.

I play TF2 on max settings while folding, and I've played Crysis on the usual settings with a 3-4 FPS loss, which never really hurt because with the settings I played I had a good FR overall.
