Doing 2 things at the same time

[Pauleft]

Does anybody know if its possible running FAH and a bitcoin miner at the same time? I know FAH focuses more on the cpu but it also uses the GPU. Will it work or is this not recommended? I have a radeon vii and an I5-9400F

it only focuses on your CPU cause most of Folding at home GPU tasks are CUDA core accelerated which is in Nvidia GPUs, but you can specify how much power FAH uses, so i would assume there is no problem running both, but i have never tried it, so i cant be certain

F@H will use CUDA on NVidia or OpenCL on AMD. You could likely run a miner on the Radeon VII and some CPU folding at the same time but you likely won't be able to recoup the cost of the Electricity mining these days.
