I have an older Radeon HD5770 1Gb card.  Would it be worth installing along with my 1050Ti to fold with or is it just too far behind and a waste of electricity?
 
EDIT:  Disregard.  I finally found someone that did a test on them recently.  They're worth about 3500 ppd.

    Yeah, definitely not worth it unfortunately.

    Not only low PPD - most older cards are also energy hogs compared to 10 series
