GPU Folding Question

At the moment I am using an APU system, a 7870k, but I have an old AMD HD6450 lying around, is it possible for me to fold on that card, while still using my APU for gaming? I know it wouldn't do much, but hey, a little folding is better than no folding!

Unfortunately, that GPU is too old. My 6670 barely made it to deadlines, crunching 24/7 OCed. I can only imagine a 6450 just won't cut it.

 

Still, you can use that 6450 for Boinc, if you want to. I suggest PrimgeGrid's PPS Sieve subproject, as that one works with pretty much anything (aside for the Fury cards).
