New client tweaking !?

[MARSTG]

Isn`t advanced the flag that used to be when -bigadv was available to Windows? For gpu clients the flag should be beta not advanced.

[Tim_H]

no, -bigadv was the flag

with the gpu's these have been released on a limited basis as advanced but most are still beta, it about triples the points with the beta flag if you're using a gpu that's capable of getting Core17 work units

also, I switched drivers. Installed 326.80. I was running the latest, 331.65 or something like that. It just finished the last unit and picked up a 7810. Only done a couple frames but showint 78000 in HMF

Do you know what they did with the newer driver releases that killed it so much?

No idea but it still hasn't been fixed from what I've heard from people w/ the same issue. Thankfully I just run the GTX780 so no issues for me.

well, they should really do something about that. Not that its the first time though, but the fact that I was only getting 33000 and with a driver change I'm now showing 85000. oh well I'll take it. I am noticing though that my GPU load isn't getting above 95% for the 7810 WU.

I'm still happy with the 85k that I'm getting now over what it was getting.

90-95% GPU usage is perfectly normal.

[Tim_H]

Perfect, thanks. I'm all up and running now.

Nice !

I've also reverted to the 326.80's , and I too am getting better results.

Cheers ! That's awesome.That's the first advice from this thread ! ; don't go with current drivers !

Does anyone have any information yet on the folding performance of the gtx780 ti's?

[MARSTG]

i just got a 8900 wu without the beta flag!

Started getting 7810 and 7811 again this past weekend. Now all I have are 7810/11's. But, this time the credits seem smaller than before, about 10-14,000/wu whereas a couple of weeks ago they were worth 20+ thousand/wu. I still have the beta flags on.
