Not quite sure if I'm allowed to post a link of my rig already detailed in another forum' date=' so I'll just write a quick summary: Specs: CPU: AMD FX-8350 @ 4 4.6Ghz (depends where/when, dat temp...) GPU1: ASUS GTX660 DirectCU II GPU2: ASUS GTX560 DirectCU RAM: Crucial Ballistix Tactical 1866MHz (stock), 4x4=16GB Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z CPU Cooling: Corsair Hydro H80 Not sure of the ppd, about 15k to 40K. stats: [url']http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=623864 N.B.: It's nicknamed "Flailbox", in case you want to google your way through the detailed page. ;)

Yes, BBCode is broken in this version of vB. :) Nice system...

Welcome to the club! :)

Thanks, The PPD is much higher since I fixed the setting to use 100% of the processor when it hasn't been used. It hasn't broke 60*C all night :D. And I'm already pushing my way onto the LTT leaderboard

Yep, little tweaking and you can usually squeak out a few more PPD...

hey, do you know how to increase gpu consumption while folding, both gpu's never hit over 60% even when set to full, tho my cpu is 100% ?

Which GPU? Sounds like you are running AMD? Driver version?

Well, make sure your AMD card is running at full power - check the FAQ - check drivers. Also, AMD will be hitting your CPU more then NVidia, so check the FAQ on that as well. :) ANd finally - you need to complete 10 SMP WU's and have your passkey and then you get your bonus points...

I am running an AMD FX 8350 on a saberooth 990fx R 2.0 and 16 gb of 1600mhz ram as well as a radeon hd 7970. Getting about 16k ppd on the fx 8350 but only about 3k ppd on the 7970 :(. Hoppefully when core 17 for the gpu on folding@home comes out things will be better for AMD cards. I have heard that the radeon hd 7970 gets up to 41k ppd on the neew gpu core for the 7970. Hopefully good things to come for me. If not I may have to get a nvidia gpu. I will wait and see though. I will put pictures of my rig up soon.

My farm consists of my "workstation"( even though it really doesn't have "workstation" parts, it is still used as one) and three slave nodes.

Workstation: 3770K, 32 gigs of G,Skill, GTX 670.

3 Slaves: Phenom 1055T, 8 gigs of RAM. On board graphics.

I am going to be adding more nodes soon!

Ya, something going on there with your setup if even with those drivers you only get 30%. Have you deleted the GPU slot (s) and re-added them to test that?

Exactly why most GPU I get for folding are always NVidia - looking forward to the new update for AMD though.

As it is folding it is telling me 5865, but I think I saw on stats it was much lower. I still have yet to read through the information about what all the acronyms are though.
