Those little annoying F@H things ..

:mad: Came home to find my monitors not responding as a result of (I'm guessing) my GPU going into some sort of power saving mode. I checked the event viewer for Kernel-Power events and there weren't any at the time my PPD stopped.

I'm thinking it's due to the new 9401 WU's, but I'm not sure. I'll have to wait and see if it happens again. Also, I have all of the power saving nonsense turned off and updates are not set to download and install automatically.
 
Found one project stalled which was otherwise as indicated on the gui's, if that makes any sense. The progress bars were progressing along but didn't a new project once reached 100%. Only to find out the gpu was idling on msi afterburner
 
Just started folding on my laptop (since I can leave that on over night)at the Redline team and I'm getting an avg of 11063 points a day. It's not much, but every little helps I guess :)

Guys, I've removed the beta flag and I'm still getting very bad WU's. 22K PPD on a 780 Ti is much lower than the 150 - 200K I'm used to getting. Should I change the client-type to advanced?

EDIT: I removed the beta flag because I stopped getting the good WU's.

I was getting horrid WUs on my 680. I added the beta and advanced client-types and have been getting 70k-100k PPD on it. Last night I was at 100k before I paused to play some D3.

Thanks for the info :)

I've added both flags. I will let you know if that helps.

EDIT: When I add both flags, only the latest flag appears under the extra client options. Am I doing this right?

That's odd, seems to work fine for me. On the latest v7 client?

Yeah. It only lets me add a single client-type flag. I'll re-install the client after the current GPU WU finishes.

When I add the flags initially, they appear as normal. When I save and re-open I only see one flag.

Maybe it's not working for me then lol. I never actually checked after I made the settings.

Edit: I think it would be redundant anyway. AFAIK, the beta flag contains beta, advanced and normal. Advanced contains advanced and normal, and no flag only contains the normal WUs.

lol. With the beta flag I'm getting very low PPD. I've just got the advanced flag set at the moment and the PPD is looking much better - 142K on project 9401.

Thanks again for the help.
 
Well boys and girls I have finally cracked it :) after many failed folds and really low PPD on all my WUs, I have split the FX4100 into two 2 cores and et voila! She folds much better.

Still no GPU folding though but having read a fare few horror stories of using the Barts GPU I'll leave it well alone.
 
My PPD has sucked lately, remodeling on the house, standard Stanford malfunctions, Steve malfunctions, and etc.

These new huge GPU WU's certinaly cause a big variance in PPD. Hopefully the PPD will settle before the next barrage of remodeling, bathrooms 2 and 3 of three....major part of the first bathroom is complete.........:banghead:
 
I had my 770 GTX folding yesterday and the V7 client said it was crunching away at just over 120,000 PPD, all I remember was that it was an a17 core.

That just seems too high from what others are getting form 680/670/660ti which are all fairly similar, with the 680 being nigh-on identical.

Unfortunately I can't get the 7950 going as my lovely daughter has left quite a mess around the computer area, so that needs a tidy before there is room for the PC to be set up. :rolleyes:

P.S.

The 770 GTX is currently folding an a15 core WU. I will report back on what the PPD is and the project number.

I've seen as high as 101k on my 660Ti with a 9401 wu so 120k+ on a 770 is nothing strange.

OK. As I haven't been keeping up with things recently I was confused when seeing people talking numbers of around 60k.

The core 15 WU was a 8018, I'm guessing there is no need to say anymore on that :mad:

I've actually got a soft spot for the 8018 at the moment as it's the only thing my 750Ti can fold & coupled with the low power draw from the card i'm quite happy to let them run.
