Folding Large with the -bigadv option flag
We need to update our guides to include some pointers on how to fold large with the new hardware. Anyone up for this task?
Thoughts and ideas:
* recommended hardware: CPU, how much memory, best motherboards, etc. Dual socket versus single socket. Minimum recommended hardware.
* recommended software, including primary OS and the need for a VM, including a recommended VM. Can you fold without a VM?
* PassKey requirements.
* Can you GPU fold and/or play games while folding large.
* Budget-conscious ideas on how to get in the folding large game.
* Links to information on how to do this, and where to download software.
* What to expect with the -bigadv option flag in place. What if I cannot make the deadline? Can I use this boxen as my daily rig, or is this for dedicated folding boxen only?
This thread is a wealth of information: Who's folding large?
Any other thoughts on how to proceed?
