Do you have a 7xx card? Their performance drops with every newer driver in my experience.

 

980, sorry I should have posted that. 

 

 

EDIT: Think its just in my head, probably a combination of wu's and the stats being down yesterday.

Not sure if it's just me imagining it (possibly be different WU's) but is anyone pulling less points since they updated drivers?

 

EDIT: Estimated 90k ppd with a x15

I did recently have to downgrade my 780's exactly for that, crap Folding performance. As I don't need anything from the newer ones, mostly for 900 series cards, it is all good. But, it does happen a lot where a new driver will cause a decrease in points. For GPU drivers, unless there is some compelling reason to upgrade, why bother?
