Would need to know what WU and such you working on. Sounds like your 970 has a Core15 which results in low PPD. When you get a better one (luck of the draw) you could see as many as 200K PPD

just OCed my 970 to 1510MHz and now I'm getting 60K but thats still not much of an improvement, do you think when i get my second 970 for SLI, it will improve quite a bit?

How do i find which Work Unit i am currently on?

Get rid of the OC - most OC's cause folding to fail,. OC'ing here won't help you. You just got a Core15 WU on the 970, so you getting low points. Luck of the draw and nothing you can do. Just wait. Eventually you will get better WU's and you will see your PPD shoot up. 

 

A second one won't help the first. If they both get core15 WU's, they will both suck. :) Just let 'er Fold away. eventually you will get decent ones. I recently had a string of like 10 Core15's in a row. PPD tanked for a few days. Nothing you can do about it.

Get rid of the OC - most OC's cause folding to fail,. OC'ing here won't help you.

Currently at +166mhz. Being stable for over 1 week but that's not to say it is 100% stable. Afterall, +170~167 all took around 3~4 weeks before failing.

 

Let's see if THIS time the OC lives throught the entire month.......
