Default What's up with one of my GPUs?
One of my gpu's is only pulling in 2800ppd. Is there something wrong with it?

The good news is the other one is running at 6500ppd.

I see you folding on a cpu. Stop that one for a bit and see what happens.

What cpu client are you using?

It's the Windows SMP client (MPICH version).

Is the slider at 100% GPU usage?

You try stopping that client and see what happens to your gpu client?

Where is the slider? I only see the slider for CPU usage.

And Chris, I installed the gpu client first and it had the same ppd before I installed the cpu client.

Can you download GPU-Z and check if your shaders are running regular speed?

Under Configure>advanced tab make sure the slider is all the way to the right. It says CPU but it means GPU.

Actually, it does mean CPU. That slider controls the amount of CPU time the client will allot to the core, since even GPU folding requires CPU time in order to operate. It should still be set to 100% since otherwise the client might end up starved for resources.

Yes, the slider is set to 100%. Here are the GPU-Zs, I've even overclocked the shaders as you can see.
