[ Folding ] We only need 13,000ppd more to start catching ABXzone

As the stats are catching up with us - we're down to only 1.1 years

Sweet shame we will only go back to 36th place after fold4life.com overtook us the otherday

The ghost in the machine appears to have eaten the 25k unit my computer spent the last three days working out. Unhappy

Man that sucks

Worse, we are due to be overtaken by 4 other teams before we overtake ABXZone

Points came through on the midnight update, 55,327 of them all in one go. I like my processor

Excellent work! So you may have influenced the huge spike then on EOC

Oh My Gosh - Just slapped the 260 in the workstation, with a quick rough and ready tune up.

It's one of the silly EVGA cards that out performs the 280 at stock!
Anyway - knock the core back to 550 (625 stock) and upped the shadder to 1500

Currently getting 8714ppd on a WU5767(353pts) or 34sec a step
not bad for a free upgrade (sold 8800gs + 9800gt = GTX260 216 +£5)

What's yours clocked to happy?
Sorry - I'm a bit excited - never owned anything this powerfull before

Marine Iguana · 21 Oct 2009 at 14:13

If i remember rightly Happy has his at

I currently run Gigabyte's default clocks:- 650/1400/2000 C/S/M @ 60-100%.

shadowscotland · 21 Oct 2009 at 14:41

intresting i'm at 551/1510/2106 and getting the same ppd...
will be doing some testing at various clocks over the next few days

What do you run yours at MI

Marine Iguana · 21 Oct 2009 at 14:46

Mine run at 500\1460\900

and on that same type WU i get

Min. Time / Frame : 38s - 8026.11 ppd
Avg. Time / Frame : 38s - 8026.11 ppd

But i do have mismatched shader card's so one is borked by the other

shadowscotland · 21 Oct 2009 at 14:54

I did wonder why your Fahmon screen shot looked odd.

Why not post a MM wanted swap thread.
see which one can oc the shaders the most and get a matching shadder model.

Marine Iguana · 21 Oct 2009 at 15:05

Meh im lazy and can't have my machine off otherwise the world will end

Plus i did buy the EVGA one from the bay description was for a 192 shader model but turns out to be a 216 ill just wait till new nvidia cards are out than worry about what i have now

Happy · 21 Oct 2009 at 19:44

I run mine at 650/1512/2000 for F@H now. I get the same 8714PPD when on a 353, they're pretty nippy

Anyway you got Greebo's GTX 260 which clocked to insane levels, even on the standard cooler :eek:

Marine Iguana · 21 Oct 2009 at 19:54

Wish i had a floppy port on my mobo so i could flash the bios's on my GTX's already made the bios up for them both

not that im worried anyway as i can push 18k even with the rubbish windows client and mismatched cards

Happy · 21 Oct 2009 at 19:55

Why not just use Evga Precision? I just slide the shaders down to 1400 for gaming then back to 1512 for folding with the fan on auto

Edit:- Anyone with GTX 260s what driver's are you using? I'm using 186.18, anyone using the 190.xx and newer will have CUDA 2.3 enhancements which should add more PPD as well, but Vertica and myself have had issues with the clockspeed dropping to 2D speeds whilst folding.
