Folding@Home My GTX970 is Underperfoming... Why?

Hi guys

 

I just signed up a few days ago for Folding month 2019, its my First time with Folding@Home, because I normally use Boinc (SETI, Rosetta etc.)

 

But my points score for the GPU seems to be way off what it should be.

 

Im running a 3900X Stock, where it uses "22" of the Threads for FAH & the GTX970 is using 1 Thread.

 

My CPU is generating 150-200k PPD

 

As you can see on the picture, the GTX970 PPD is 56.700 - but according to the videos I found it should manage 200-300k PPD alone..

 

The compute performance on the GPU is maxed according to Task Manager, HWinfo64 etc.and the fan is running.

 

The Medium & Full settings seems to be very similar, the FULL one takes 99% of system of resources, and the Medium 95-97%

 

Any advice would be appreciated. (at current PPD, its almost not worth using the GPU, since its very Noisy, blower style card :( )

I had the 11714 WU earlier and it wasn't calculating the quick return bonus. Should credit you the correct points when it's finished.

I had this yesterday or day before with the same WU. I got a whole 75 points when EoC updated ?

The 11714 work unit I just had was credited with the last update and I got 129,000 for it.

Hmm ok, lets hope so.

 

Where do I see my Work Units, and how many points I got from each, the only links I can find gives med a "certificate" with X amount units or total Score

In order to keep a history of how many points for each WU you’d have to install a program like HFM.net
