Secondary Nvidia GPU Use Case

Kanishk Rathi

Hii everyone,

I have a ASUS RTX 3080 Ti and an old ASUS GTX 960, my motherboard supports dual GPU's. So my question is how and what can I use my secondary GTX 960 for? (Also I am unable to sell it for a good price so I am planning to keep it)

Fold with it https://foldingathome.org/ and join LTT team.

Quote from wikipedia: 

Folding@home (FAH or F@h) is a volunteer computing project aimed to help scientists develop new therapeutics for a variety of diseases by the means of simulating protein dynamics. This includes the process of protein folding and the movements of proteins, and is reliant on simulations run on volunteers' personal computers.[5] Folding@home is currently based at the University of Pennsylvania and led by Greg Bowman, a former student of Vijay Pande.[6]

Build another PC and sell for a markup. Could also be used as streaming PC or multimedia PC

While it is too late to sign up for Folding event V, you can fold along for fun and to help scientists out. It's a close knit really fun community.
