Does overclocking vram increase PPD?

[FloRolf]

Not really. I wouldnt OC the gpu at all to be honest. It will probably result in failing WUs and wasted time

[Johannes_Lazor]

PPD are close to only gained when overclocking the GPU, Not the Vram. It is Better to Downclock The Vram to Minimize heat output and therefore overclock the GPU higher.

But this is from my experience with the Asus radeon HD 4890 so it might be different for you.

PPD? :unsure:

My Points Per Day is 190k.

PPD? :unsure:

Parallel Presence Detect, The method used by some SIMM memory modules to communicate their capacity to the computer.

Wait, What are we talking about?

Thanks for clearing that, mate!

No Problems, Im not sure if @PhiberOptik is talking about the same thing though.

[PhiberOptik]

Lol no

[Geekazoid]

Lol no

Okay, well, what're Points Per Day?

[Johannes_Lazor]

Lol no

Points per day in what? Potatoe points, Super Intel Flawless SocketPins Of Doom, AMD easy CPU pins of Simpleness, Bitcoin Points, Litecoin points, Dogecoin points or what?

Maybe he means demerit points per day. JK

I think he's trying to confuse us...and I think it's working.

@Johannes_Lazor

we are talking about Folding@Home here lol.

I wouldn't expect much of a PPD increase from overclocking at all. Both my cpu and gpu are overclocked and it doesn't make much of a difference. But my OC temps are still very acceptable ~60 on the cpu and ~67 on the gpu. I have heard that OC can lead to problems when folding e.g. failed WUs. I OC for gaming and I'm too lazy to remove the OC when I fold.
