I'm a little surprised no-one is interested in this. Has the team degraded so far? Or is this old news? If you'll already knew this would someone link me to the thread?
I'd use it if folding was the primary use for my rig, but that driver version unfortunately has a lot of issues in games I have. Thanks for the heads up though. btw. has anyone been getting those big GPU projects recently? 1680 points each
Yes quite a few, and unfortunatley im backing off F@H now and these aren't helping when I do want to get some in. Im wondering if this is a driver glitch.
Nvidia/ATI points discrepicy again Stanfard have done it again for the green team 1680 wu's how fair is that????
What? It's not the points that get you the points overall you know. It's also the speed at which the unit can be folded at as well as points. I do understand that the balance between Nv and ATI in folding has still not been fixed yet..
I am aware that it is not just to do with points. But as of yet these work units are not available to ATI folders. And it does get a little frustrating when people are getting twice or more points for the same number of work units completed..:bang:
ALL GPU WU's are calculated on an ATI card. So if the Nvidia does it faster then it's not stanfords fault. AMD need to tweak their drivers, Apparently there are not enough folder that they care enough.
I think I got a 1680 point WU a couple of days ago. I had 2100 something points but two WUs that day, so I'm guessing one of those and a regular 500 point CPU.
I had another weird WU this morning, I think it was worth 1888 points or thereabouts. It was folding really slowly compared to the smaller units, it was only doing about 6200PPD compared to the usual 8000. When I checked in Rivatuner it looked like the card wasn't folding constantly, the VRM current was switching up and down every second or two meaning the card wasn't under constant load. Not sure what's up with that.
I had exactly the same thing happen. That WU was worth 1888 I think. As I've not folded for long, I thought something was broken...nice to see it wasn't. I just got another one just like it. The progress indicator is /8,000,000 - not 10,000,000 like the normal ones I get. This one, even being "smaller" is taking about 150% longer.
