New computer is up and running:
Processor is the I7-8700 (non-K)
GPU is 1070 TI
Running folding on the processor is LOUD due to air cooling, even on low. I don't expect many points from the processor anyways, may try it over the weekend while I'm not in the office.
Noticed that one logical CPU is maxed out with the GPU folding. GPU might run a bit better if I can turn off hyper threading, giving it a bit more headroom. But I cannot for the life of me find where to turn off hyper threading in the BIOS. Kind of odd.
