is ~2.8k(477pt WU) good for a stock 4850?

That is most excellent for a 4850. You should be proud. But keep an eye on it, it might crap out on a 511. (511's are the ATI equivalent of an 1888 or 548).

I've clocked the holy living crap out of everything in the past, and never gotten above 2.6K PPD. (I now run the CPU 0.1 GHz slower than max and do a very small (6%) overclock of the GPU - all in the name of stability). I don't see the need to run my very lowest producing machine (rig #2 in my sig) at maximum. For a small price of 200 PPD, I can surf, e-mail, etc. I can even play ANNO 1404 on that PC. Although that wacks my PPD about 75%, at least it still folds.

Your rig that has the 4850 in it isn't bad at all. I am running the 4850 in the i7

My lowest powered rig (in terms of CPU power) is a tie between 2 rigs
E1500@3ghz
X2 4200@3.1ghz
both have 2gb of DDR2 800
the E1500 is folding on a 8800GT
don't have a GPU for the X2 so its running onboard :( Maybe when i get some $$ i will open a WTB thread and see if i can pickup a cheap folding card for it.


Also did you try different Values for the Variables? (on the 4850 rig)

Yup, it seems like they ran out or something:D:eek: I tried 3 different VMWare images and still could not get one:confused: I'm getting smaller WUs:confused:

OK I have done what you suggested installed SMP client for CPU and changed environment variables.
And guess what before I did all of this I was doing around 3600 ppd after I did the changes I was doing 2300 ppd :D. So I deleted all and restored previous conf and now I`m doing around 3200 ppd :D.

What are you using for monitoring? FAHmon? The new SMP client scores direct points and bonus points, which HFM.net will show in real time.

With that being said...., I'm not convinced that the new SMP client works well with dual core CPU's, especially when mixed with an ATI card for Folding. Right now, my Win7/64 X2/4400 is getting 478.4PPD (HFM.net) on an a3 P6021 1106 point WU while Folding on a stock clock 4830 that's getting 1140PPD on a 384 point WU. My FX60 used to get upwards of 1100 PPD with the old SMP client (no bonus) while Folding on an 8800GTS/512. (FX60 is 400MHz (~15%) faster than the 4400)

is anyone having trouble getting -bigadv WU's?

I finally completed my -bigadv and successfully sent it.

I had an A3 core and a GPU being sent on a wireless connection at the same time as my -bigadv WU and a GPU on a wired connection. There sure was a lot of pushing and shoving going on but they all were successfully sent.

My completed -bigadv project was 2682 and I got a 2681.

:eek: If i still had all of my old stuff i wouldn't even be in sight of you :banghead: I am regretting selling all of my hardware :ohwell: but whats done is done.... but i have held my rank fairly good for not having much folding :) Enjoy overtaking me :toast: and no hard feelings

The only way i could hold you off is if i switched the i7 over but then i will only have like 2k PPD crunching for me :(

Don't worry. I will alternate my i7 between folding and crunching. I might never catch you, but Texbill will, soon.

me and texbill battled it out alot for PIE and ranks. But you will catch me soon. All i have folding is 8800GT and 4850. I need some money so i can grab 2 more cards. I have 2 open PCI-E slots that is a sin. (1 open slot in the i7 rig and 1 open slot on one of the crunchers)

I'm sorry to say this, but I think I turned in my last F@H WU for a while. I still haven't been able to resolve my issues with F@H and Nvidia drivers, so I'm selling the 8800GT in ~2 hours unless someone can give me some quick suggestions. I've tried various different ATi and Nvidia drivers, I even re-installed the OS (ugh), but the drivers still crash quite frequently. At least I should be getting $80 for the 8800GT, so it's not a bad deal. I'm probably going to be picking up a HD5670 (about as fast as the 8800GT in games, and it's cooler and quieter), so no more F@H I believe :(

I have no idea unless you don't Install ATI drivers at all. I never installed chipset drivers only installed the sound and Ethernet driver needed nothing else. Maybe give that a try before you sell it

I don't pay for anything so that doesn't matter to me. But when summer comes it would be hell to have all of the rigs crunching and folding that is one reason why i downsized

I tried that, and Win7 gave me shit about missing drivers until I installed the AMD chipset drivers. I asked my dad for suggestions, and he said to make sure I had the onboard HD4200 disabled, which I do(did). So I'm really at a loss, I don't want to sell it because I don't want to give up F@H, but if it crashes every 3-8 hours and causes F@H to stop working until I reboot, I'm done with Nvidia (for now). And it crashes during games, which is extremely irritating. Sorry team :banghead::banghead: :cry:

you are really having some strange problems. Problems that i avoided some how when i had Nvidia GPU and AMD chipset. I'm sure everyone will understand. You could always fold on the ATI card won't put put alot but better then nothing

you are really having some strange problems. Problems that i avoided some how when i had Nvidia GPU and AMD chipset. I'm sure everyone will understand. You could always fold on the ATI card won't put put alot but better then nothing

Yeah, my last hope was reinstalling the OS, which I did. Major pain in the ass, I've already spent several hours getting things set up again, and it's still not done :(
Any idea on what PPD the HD5670 would do?
If I can scrape together a few dollars (like 10), which shouldn't be too hard, I may pick up a HD4850, I know it's faster in games, but the 8800GT is already overkill. One advantage of the HD5670 is that it uses almost no power, and runs cool (parents complain about power usage regularly)

If I do fold (which, in theory, I'm not against), what would I need to do to get the CPU usage down?

What version drivers are you using [Ion]? 191.07 has been very stable for me.

it would do around 2k-2.5k PPD (my 4850 at stock does 2.8k)
to get CPU usage down you would need to add these environmental variables
Variable Value
Brook_Yield 2
Cal_No_Flush 1
Cal_PRE_FLUSH 1
Flush_Interval 242 (may have to change the number a few times to get best PPD:CPU usage ratio)
