Anyone on GPU-folding with this and playing L4D?
I always turn mine off when Playing Games.
GPU always screws up folding. I always forget to turn it off and then find have to alt-tab as it's makes it unplayable.

You are right, with the new version of the drivers, L4D seems to studder, even a low-priority setting in GPU-folding.

If you have the "high priority" setting in GPU-folding, which is required when you run CPU-folding alongside, it will studder a lot more in-game. If you have the "lowest possible" setting, the game will suffer very little, if at all. In my experience...
Did you try L4D in windows mode?

Just did. Same problem. Will have to stop folding while playing, at least until some alpha drivers get out...
