Heehee, it hasn't finished any jobs yet, but it has figured out my PPD. 20,378 total for this system.![]()

Give it a couple days to settle - apparently they send out different WU's at first - my GTS450 (I think I might have referred to it as a GTS250 a couple times in this thread lol but it's a 450) was getting around 13k ppd alone initially - after about 3 days it dropped and now sits at around 8k - quite a drop. It's also worth turning off the CPU folding and seeing what you get on just the GPU's as the GPU3 client does use a chunk of CPU cycles - freeing up the CPU to JUST work the GPU3 clients can make a big difference - possibly more than you're getting on the CPU at the moment - check both then choose whichever works for you.
My system gets about 11k now, going with one GPU2 and one GPU3 only running. If I start CPU I get very little from the CPU but the GPUs lose almost 3k points so I end up worse off WITH CPU running than I am without...

I read up about this:
A note on PPD - this will vary from project to project!
bonus points - it's up to 50% extra if you have a passkey, but only after 10 SMP WUs
Yeah which I'm not likely to ever qualify for with this rig - I'm running it purely on GPU which wont qualify lol - bah humbug and all that

Under SMP settings, select 'Use specified number of cores' and enter 3 (or total#-1). Voila! You're now SMP folding with 1 core dedicated to gpu3 assistance and other misc tasks.
To add to this, in the Tracker, if the PPD is yellow it's an estimate, when it's green it's actual. I've noticed the yellow estimates are pretty random sometimes...both high and low.Originally Posted by dr.walrus
I'll procrastinate tomorrow.
I'm getting 2801 PPD from SMP on my Q6600 @3.0GHz, and 3034 PPD on my 6870 @ 955/1140, so my CPU is doing well enough. I may toss in that spare 4870 just to fold with, but we'll see

I heard about that but idn if it'll help. Lets find out - right now, GPU2 and GPU3 only, the system is claiming 11,001 ppd - see what happens when I kick in SMP on 3 cores only...
Just for the hell of it, I just started my sons PC running SMP on a Athlon x2 5000 (2.6 ghz? not sure)
See what that pushes out...

1) Depends on the WU itself
2) f@h is prioritised so low that any other work on the PC will trash your performance. Running full screen (non-hd)TV, internet, remote desktop reduces me from ~14000 to ~2500, even though those things are very non-processor intensive
3) Are you using the SMP or the normal client? I'm assuming SMP, but that figure seems low on an X3
