Folding@Home Graphical client vs No-Nonsense client

Is there a performance difference b/t the two clients? I could really care less to see the folding happening in real time since I don't use a screen saverl... I just want to maximize my performance.


Thanks!
 
As far as i know there's no difference in performance. The graphical version does have a bug that causes OpenGL game to minimize randomly. So i switched to the console version, which I like alot better especially since i found LogStats
 
I think there is a small hit on performance when using the graphical version since it uses some CPU cycles to generate the graphics and such.
 
There isn't much of a difference but why not get the extra bit of speed if you can? The command line client isn't hard to set up at all, if you need a guide check out one of the stats posts for a link to my guide.
