Does the 2600k's on die graphics speed up folding?

Simple question really, just wondering the intel graphics protion of the CPU effect the speed that it folds at.

Intel integrated graphics don't fold. If they did, they'd quite likely slow down cpu folding.

Rats...thought those extra 8 gpu cores might be of some kind of use.

May I hijack your thread and ask if using the on chip graphics slows down folding on a 2600k? Just always wanted to know, but was too lazy to experiment.
