How many gamers fold?

[lance-tek]

I just thought it was a curious topic. A lot of people don't like to fold while gaming beacuse they think it laggs them. I have never had a problem with gaming and I NEVER shut my folding console down.

So, how many gamers are also folders? And do you shut down F@H when gaming? Why? Have you ever Not shut down while gaming? What were the resulsts?

Please answer any and all questions that apply to you.

Some people claim to notice a difference, but I never did. Besides, the client will lower its CPU usage when something of a higher priority needs to the CPU cycles, so instead of 100% CPU it might use 2-8% instead.
