I want to use only my GPU for folding and I know that the GPU works on  medium and high power settings but I would like to know what one is better and what the difference is between the two.

  • Medium
    • CPU is Folding at three-quarter speed. GPU Folding is on. This is the default setting, and recommended for most users.
  • Full
    • CPU is Folding at full speed. GPU Folding is on. This is the most productive setting. Will cause fans to run faster and may produce more heat.

In other words, it shouldn't make any difference for GPU folding, only how it uses the CPU, when enabled.
