Do you mean this

You can install this with

sudo pacman -Syu foldingathome

Optionally for opencl support

sudo pacman -Syu ocl-icd clinfo

As i just added it to repo

Then start its service

systemctl enable foldingathome --now

For nvidia users

systemctl enable foldingathome-nvidia --now

You can install cuda if your gpu support it

sudo pacman -S cuda
