Go to solution Solved by Imakuni,

The new 900 series is supposed to scale well. Does this also go for folding? Lets say, I get 300k PPD, would I then get 550 to 600 PPD with two cards? Can you please post your PPD, if you have tried that.

Assuming that:

  1. You get identical WUs.
  2. You report your WUs with the same delay (because of the QRB).
  3. Your CPU has enough free cycles for both of the cards.

Yes, there should be a 100% scaling.

Folding doesn't rely on SLI points are based on the WU that is given to you but they should give about the same amount of points
