Like I mentioned, I got 5100ppd with core 1.19, and 5600ppd with core 1.15. But core 1.15 only works with 50xx series (480 points) jobs.
Edit: with the shader increase, it's stabilized at 5760ppd!

I can send you the drop-in exe for fahcore, just back up the new one when you get a 480 point job, and drop this in. Haven't figured out how to send it to you yet... tpu email doesn't seem to allow it.
Anyone that wants it, just send a request to johnspack@rock.com

Heheh, and yes, Buck gets the kudos, I got the file from him originally! Check your ppd in a bit, I'm sure you'll go up.

Wow, I'm puzzled by that! I get an instant increase in ppd.. very odd. Buck?
Just checked, I get no increase in temp either...

Well after about a week of having my GTX280 down due hard drives failing in my RAID array, which I thought was a power issue, then a heat issue, and finally figured out it was just bad firmware on the Seagate drives, my GTX280 is back folding. Though it will probably only be folding about 8 hours a day now.

Hmm, no you should be getting at least 300-400ppd increase or more, what driver are you using? I'm on 185.20, but get same results with 180.84. I don't use the whql driver, because it also pins my cpu usage at 100%, whereas the betas use like 2%.

If this is the 8800GT we're talking about, something is not right. Fahcore 11 v1.15 on a 480pt WU should yield a 10% boost in PPD over v1.19. When you check the Fahmon log does it say core v1.15 when the client starts up?

On another note, it's gonna be a crappy day folding for me. Both G92 8800GTS's quit @ 11am EST this morning. Also had a 8800GS "EUE" out on me today. Just restarted them and i'm gonna fold like a banshee to try to make up for it.

Stefanels was kind enough to create a Folding Sig for TPU. It's generic enough for any proud TPU Folder to use. Enjoy!!!

Missing one thing in the sig though, the folding number should be there...at least in my opinion!

Looks good though!

I can't fold for another couple of days now, massive internet loss and had to reformat the hard drive. Been down for a good week and a half. It was only a 3850 and got just over 2000ppd but I miss not being able to fold.

Anyway, i'll have a E8600 to contribute and hopefully a 4850 if it ever arrives.

So I'm planning on getting the new windows 7 beta that come out tomorrow.... Anyone see any reason why it won't fold as well on it? It might even go up considering it "supposedly" uses less resources

It will fold just as fast under win7, although I doubt any faster. Win7 is a snappier os than vista though, very pleased with the last alpha, and getting ready to install the new beta! I think the only way to increase ppd is shader oc, improved drivers and improved core.
