    Claiming credit?

    So, I was reading the thread on the new scoring system and the deviants, so, I figured I'd look at my results to see how I was going along. All my machines are running nicely, with at most a couple points difference between claimed and recieved credit, except one. My main rig is claiming on ~30 points lower than what it recieves, which in many cases is close to half of the recieved credit. I'm running the regular client. Any ideas why? or is my computer just mentally disabled?

    lol meshmesh. Need a new keyboard, because the old one is worn out?

    I never say you posting that less


    Most likely you are claiming less credits than the other PCs, because yours are slower.
    Please post their specs, OS and Boinc version, so we can have a look if there is something wrong or if its all right.

    Edit: Just noticed you have already posted.
    Please add a few WUs from your WCG stats aswell.

    Is the scoring system based partially off of the cpu time?

    Your PC is not slow. It is the BOINC benchmark that is under representing your PC capability. Will you please make sure that you are not runnig anything in the background, then run the BOINC benchmark one more time. From the Action menu --> run benchmark.
    leave the PC alone for two minutes.
    look in the message tab, then read the benchmark scores at the bottom of the list.
    post them here.
    thanks.

    OK, I ran the scores twice, and they posted this:
    First round: 1941/3128
    Second round: 1935/2996

    Edit:
    I forgot to say, thanks for helping me out.

    Your machine is completing the WUs nearly as fast as mine. But mine benches at 2400/4600, so it claims more. Your benches are 70% of what I bench, which I think is typical intel. I think you should be claiming in the 50s. So please wait and see the next few WUs, see what your machine claims on them, then post. thanks.


    PS: anyone with a 805D@3.8ghz care to comment on his benches. Thanks.

    Thats per core, right? So he is claiming 70 per work unit, which is close to what I get with my single core sempron.
    I have no idea of Netburst P4s score in the project, but back in R@H, they were a tad slower than AMDs, so on the one hand your credits seem ok, but on the other hand, they could be higher.

    Well, it seems that rebenching helped. I'm now getting claiming higher scores.
    My last set of scores:
    51/56 - 4.82
    43/50 - 3.99
    51/60 - 4.73
    52/59 - 4.87
    60/66 - 5.60

    Thanks again.
