CPU 11x As many PPD as GPU?

Go to solution Solved by Chippas64,

I feel like I do...

 

I'm also fairly certain I'm looking at the Client wrong...

That's not the estimated points for the day, right?

Right there you are looking just at the CPU, showing its points for the workload and its ppd. if you click the GPU next to it then you will see the GPU stats

So I was curious if it's normal for a CPU (4790K) to get 11x as many PPD as a GPU (980)...

Is this due to the thing with Core 18 or whatever?

Thanks.

 

Or am I just stupid and looking at the F@H Client wrong?

Do you have your settings configured correctly?

no, Gpus are much better at doing mathematical algorithms like the ones uses in F@H however Cpus are getting better

Try just making the GPU run by itself and see if it gets more points

The gpu requires a single core to function and fold properly. If you are folding with all of your cores, remove one of them so it can run at full potential. This is much easier to do using the advanced control panel.

 

Edit: Also, I believe you must fold for 10 WU before you start getting quick return bonuses on GPU.

ppd stands for points per day, it's a future prediction/estimate assuming everything

will stay the same as it is right now. But estimated points looks more like the point

return estimated for that single wu, which in your case looks like it is just the base

credit.

 

anywho.. take a peek in your advanced client and see what that tells you about the

ppd estimate for the individual slots, just right click the folding icon on your task bar 

and click advanced client Control :P

10 wu's cpu's not gpu's :P

Speaking of that, I know what makes them better for it is parallel porcessing, but if a GPU can do CPU calculations faster, why do we even bother with CPU's ? Is it only a matter of precision ?

I dont know exactly but the type of calculations they do are slightly different. Also amd and intel have made it possible for the gpu to be inside the cpu with products like Amds APU and intels Integrated video, how ever these are not as good as a video card.
