Am I folding right?

[orangecat]

I don't know what i'm doing I just joined the team and setup my identity and such now I get this... is 20K PPD alot? How can I make it faster without overclocking?

Yes you are folding, but afaik you can't make it go faster without overclocking/buying new hardware. (Afaik amd graphics card is the way to go if you want to fold more)

I thought Nvidea was better or has that changed with core 17? I know I used to get 5KPPd on my 7850 but I get 50K PPD on beta, finally folding is worthwhile for me

Core_17 was a big game changer for AMD GPUs but more particularly for the HD 7000 series. Nvidia just needs to implement OpenCL 1.2 asap.

That is more then what I know, so is it just some software fix they need to do?

I believe so and when its done things should get quite interesting with core_17 and Nvidia GPUs.

Your gear is all doing fine. If you don't have the Beta flag set yet, do that - check the FAQ for info... Otherwise, looks good.

I wouldn't bother using the beta flag because it generates less PPD than standard WUs on a GTX 460.

All my NVidia cards are seeing boosts on the new Beta - it was the earlier one in Jan-Mar that tanked NVidia cards. Best bet - run for a few WU's without, then try a few with, making sure you get project 7663.
