I'm back in the game! How does a 4850 compare to my old 9600 GT in terms of folding power?
And is folding on a 4650 worth it? (I'll be getting one quite soon).

Why pay for "safe" shipping? UPS covers all shipments for $100 here, so if they'd lose it, you'd at least have some cash for the next card.

its worser in folding. sorry, i also owned both, and the 9600gt kicked the 4850 butt, folding wise ;-)

![]() a 4850 wont crack the 4000ppd on 353Wu´s, whereas an ordinary 8800gt does up to 6000 and eventually more... sucks balls, that you have to go Nvidia to fold

Oh well, I guess its time for an upgrade anyway! How many PPD can I expect from a GTX 260 216? I'm getting about 2200 PPD with a 511 point WU on my 4850 clocked at 720/1100.

Somewhere between 7500 and 9000 (depending on overclock and WU being folded)

I am so getting one. Is L2 cache very important to F@H? I have the option of getting a Q8400 or an E8400, they're the same price, but the Q has less L2 cache (but more cores, so it could run more clients). I'm very tempted to get the Q8400 over the E8400.

I am giving the 9600gso I won to my uncle (since I personally don't have any hardware capable of running it). He said he would give running F@H a shot, so I should be getting ~2000-2500PPD (it's not a 24/7 rig).

Short answer is no. I know performance is not hurt down to 4x.

I don't go down without a fight, I will have a gtx260 or better within a month. I will restart folding again. Stay tuned!

Ok, scratch that plan. Until I get a GTX 260 I might just stick the 9600 GT back in this computer for better folding...

Get the Giga SOC. I get between 7800 and 9500 (calculated) depending of WU, extra OC and use of GPU for other things (video streaming).

EDIT: I've put the 9600 GT back in this machine, PPD increase is ridiculous; I'm able to use both cores of my CPU for folding (ATI GPU2 used a whole core ), and the 9600 GT is getting about 3000-4000 PPD! Shaders clocked at 1920 MHz, RAM at 1090. All seems stable.

Well, my crappy PNY XLR8 9800 GT 1GB (55nm) that I bought at Bestbuy about a year ago might be dying, tested it yesterday with OCCT GPU and after about a minute it starts artifacting. Lowered the clocks down to 625/1575 (1.05v) and it seems to work fine. What a dumb card.
My used BFG 9800 GT 65nm that I got a few weeks ago still kicks ass, runs 650/1650 easily at 1.05v.

Is there any way you can RMA the PNY? The PNY 9600GSOs I had had 3 year warranties.

1. Original packaging is long gone 2. The extremely thin warranty sticker that they placed on a bunch of SMD components got really hot and decided to crack when I touched it one day 3. Stock cooler fan died after about 3 months, replaced with VF1000 4. BIOS modded many times, doubt I still have the original. Oh well, some day when I get enough $$$ I might get a GT200 or a Fermi or something. The card isn't too much of a loss, as I bought another 9800 GT from TPU a few weeks ago, but if this card dies I will miss my 10K PPD with all 4 cards running. The card was on sale for like $129 a year ago at Bestbuy, and it happened to be the last one, with a giant hole in the front of the box. Yay, bad luck.

I'm back up, for the moment.
I'm impressed, TPU! team has come a long way since I was last submitting WU. Last I remember, the team standing was in the low 100s. Anyhow, if I can afford it within the next month or so, I might pick up some used crossfire 775 mobos to put some of these spare components to work - I've got way too much hardware just collecting dust: Pentium4HT 520 Celeron D 336 C2Q Q6600 (2) X1950 PRO (2) HD3870 (2) HD4870
