Is it worth using for folding?

reason I ask is some kind people on the evga forums are selling off 32 of them used so they are obviously pretty cheap about £60 each shipped to the UK and it scales nicely also.

But are they worth the output vs heat/power Im sure some of you guys will have run these can you give me some advice on them please.

Cheers!

Equivalent to a dual 260gtx so around 12 - 14K as a rough estimate. Similar to a gtx460 but around 2x the power

I've had 3 295s at one point, if you get one make sure you blow it out with a airline.. all my cards would run around 80' in games but after 3 months they would start to hit 105' lol for some reason they like to hold dust inside the heatsink more than other cards. Must be the layout plus they are hot to start with.. still nice cards and will heat your room up
