hahah im gonna upgrade to vista i meant

anyway vista was having a bit of trouble with the client and the latest unsupported drivers, so i thought it would probably work perfectly on xp, so i have it a try and my computer would freeze up big time whenever i opened the viewer and everything else was pretty slow while the client was running. so now im back on vista where, for me, it runs a lot smoother

FAH sticks Core 0 at full tilt on the GPU folder for me on XP too, in fact it's doing it right now...

Kesava · 06-26-2008, 08:56 AM

ok so im now folding with my gpu and getting around 2600ppd

which kinda sucks cos with the new drivers i could get like 4500 ppd.

but i cant install them properly

Kesava · 06-27-2008, 02:15 AM

ok i got the new drivers (177.35) installed.
now i get like 4500ppd instead of 2500.
well actually i dont get that cos i havent been running the client all the time haha.
but you know what i mean

Your ppd average doesn't show it

I bet this post gets deleted like one of my other ones did!!!!!!!

Glad I'm saving a copy this time.

You average shows 561 not the ''old 2500''

Kesava · 06-27-2008, 05:01 AM

i know cos i was hardly running the client haha.

MyCattMaxx · 06-27-2008, 05:16 AM

So why say you were at 2500 old and now 4500 new when your sig shows 561?

BTW, I like how you removed the sig tag now

Kesava · 06-27-2008, 05:30 AM

because thats what ill be getting once im running it 24/7... which is starting now.
and thats what is said in fahmon.

all im saying is if i was running the client 24/7 then thats how much different there is.

what sig tag?

that picture thing was in the actual post

Kesava · 06-27-2008, 05:48 AM

ill try and explain what i ment more clearly.

what i meant by that was that 4500ppd was my projected ppd.
its not what i was actually getting because i didnt have the client running that much.
the post makes sense to me but is confusing for others haha

MyCattMaxx · 06-27-2008, 05:49 AM

I guess we will wait and see then.....

Projected and ACTUAL are 2 different things

I'm saving this page also incase it gets deleted also.

If you think you are making a hero out of yourself for a PROJECTED point count get a life.

The ACTUAL point average is what counts.
