OK, no one has done it yet so I will...
Here's a new thread to post all of your experiences with the new GPU2 beta client. I think that many folks with graphics cards supporting CUDA will be interested.

First and before you do anything else, LOOK OVER THE FAQ: Folding@home - FAQ-NVIDIA
Lots of important things in there that you'll need to know if you do anything beyond run the installer and run it.

Drivers
You MUST use the 174.55 version of the drivers: Download CUDA Code - complete and free toolkit for creating derivative works
(or better, from that URL) for now. You do not need the other files, just the drivers.

Known bugs:
It's a beta, and yes we meant that, not like Google but like software engineers - expect glitches and updates. The main thing is that the viewer will not work, as we're in the middle of changing how the live coordinates get to the viewer. Other then that, visit our nVidia beta Forum to see what's happening.

@Daniel~, Gizmo, Aedan:
Do you have the awesome power to move the last dozen posts or so [relative to the GPU client]from the other thread ["AOA is losing ground"] into here? There's some good info there already, maybe we can keep it together.
