hi guys ;) ive got an acer aspire m3910 here folding away next to my bed. just looked at the ppd and its only around 1600?

Specs are: i3 550@ 3.2Ghz, 7gb 1333 ram, nvidia g315 (rebranded gt220 i think).

Is it normal to be this low? Around christmas i should be upgrading the crappy 300w psu for a 500w corsair so i can use an old 9800gtx i got cheap the other week.

Any help would be great :)
 
That looks a little low.

Has it been folding 24/7 or have you stopped and restarted on the same work unit and are you folding SMP.
 
A GT220 should or could do 2xxxPPD so that is kinda low indeed,
the CPU would do around 1xxxPPD....

could you show a SS please of the client(s) ?
 
The reason the SMP (CPU) PPD is low is because you are stopping and starting. The SMP work units have a bonus applied to them and the bonus is linked to how quickly the finished work unit is sent back. As you are stopping and starting the estimated bonus becomes less and less.

From the looks of your screenshot the client doesn't know how many points the GPU work unit will bring in so it's not adding that to your PPD. The GPU work units dont have a quick return bonus so you can stop and start them as you wish, as long as it doesn't go past the deadline, the PPD wont be effected.

The GPU is doing a GPU2 WU, V7 sees the GPU2 WU but doesn't add the points to the total.

To see the total PPD you would have use a 3rd party points calculator such as HFM.NET
