Anyone still using GTX460's for folding?

In acme's chair.
I just bought a GTX460 on the MM, and have it running stock clocks with 0.875v, and it gets 15.5K PPD!

That is pretty good considering that it cost me £45 :D

If you use a 460 for folding, do you run it overclocked, underclocked, with stock voltages, increased voltages, decreased voltages? what cooling/temps to you use/get? and roughly how many PPD? :)

Mine sits at 68°C with the PNY XLR8 cooler in a case with very little airflow, in a fairly hot (at the moment at least) room. Which I thought at least, is pretty good :p
 
Seeing as my OCed 660ti is only getting 28k/day I'd be very happy with your purchase!
I have a 130Mhz core overclock but left the memory on standard clocks to reduce load as I'm told memory clock has little effect.

I think I get very nearly the same on my non TI 660. It was pre-overclocked to 1137MHz, it won't go any further than that without making a fuss unfortunately :p

I see you are still in the top 10 of the OcUK F@H folders :p

Yeah but I didn't do a single point on the GPU for OcUK, most were bigadvs as you can probably tell by the no. of work units I've done. I did a lot for Bit-tech, I discovered folding through their CustomPC magazine, then came here and I'm now addicted to every sort of distributed computing :rolleyes::D

Wow yeah, just noticed your WU count :p

Being addicted to distributed computing is quite expensive :rolleyes:

In the distant(ish) future I think i'll have a single watercooled system with three or four high end GPU's folding 24/7...

At the moment I have a GTX460 folding 24/7 (bar the occasional LAN match with a mate) and a GTX660 folding every night, and sometimes during the day.

I used to fold on the CPU (OC'd 2500K) quite a lot, but the random hot weather burst today made the core temp of #3 (the hottest core) nudge 80 (usually stays between 70 and 75), so I paused SMP work for now.
 
1215 is what it's at, 1230 caused eue's . it is water cooled at 43c at max load.
Most of my previous points were gained from a fleet of XP athlons that were modeled on stompy but looked much more ghetto! I'd post a picture but it would scare people away!

Ooh, temps are down to 38, it's going to be a cold night here!

Anyone else stuck on 8043 work units for the GPU?

And why are my GPU's showing up as Uniprocessor?

This carries on much longer and I'll go try find some little green men.....

do you not fold now or just fold for another team

Well... My poor i5 was sitting at 82°C for most of last night because I forgot to turn the radiator off :eek:

I think i'll just stop folding on the CPU now :p I'm just asking for trouble.
