everything makes A LOT more sense now...for the last 2 days the ppd were huge but my card was up 4*C...i was on my way here to tell of my awesome 5385ppd project lol

I had been using v1.13 now for a couple of weeks as a beta team core the only difference between v1.13 and v1.15 is that v1.15 should handle EUE's better that were causing the client to shutdown vs continuing on a new wu. The ppd increase is nice but like I said keep a close eye on it for a little while to make sure its stable with your overclocks since it seems to work the card a little harder and causes a little temp increase over the older v1.09 core.

I noticed a small boost on my VGA, now it needs 57 ~ 59 seconds to finish one % before it was over 65 ~ 67 seconds. As for the temps indeed it's higher a bit around 4 ~ 5 degrees but that's because the stock GTX cooling is not worth much ..

I edited the OP and title to take all that console client nonsense out. that was my goof this morning.
Min frame time when I was away was giving me ppd of 6189 ppd. Up from 54xx.
How come mines the same?!?
I want a PPD increase!!
Is there a new NVidia driver everyone is using? I'm on 177.89
I am using an older driver than that 177.52 or some such it was the current beta Linux 64 bit driver when I setup the client about a month ago.

don't think it makes any difference. but why dont you uninstall the 177 driver and install the 178.. if anything it'll update you and maybe cycle thru a couple reboots to clear out any junk slowing it down.
Well the WU difference could be it too. For example, unit A was at 5000 ppd. new core gets it to 5300 ppd. Cool. Unit B was at 4800 ppd. Now it is at 5000 ppd. Cool again. However, since you moved from unit A to unit B, it appears that you didn't get a boost, because you went from 5000 to 5000, when you really did get a boost.. I'd check it next unit and see how things look after about 5%-10%.

I went from 6912ppd to 7450. Sometimes it says 7680 at points during the same WU. In either event, big increase.
I went from 62 seconds per frame to 54.
Shut down your GPU folding client. Go into fahmon, double click on your GPU client. Delete fahcore_11, an application extension.
EDIT: Now I'm down to 7029ppd with a new WU. Hmm... I need to start paying attention to the projects.
EDIT2: Close fahmon, open it again, close, open, and it keeps going up. Is it just recalculating ppd based on frame times? I'm up to 7252 and I just posted that previous edit not 15 seconds ago.
EDIT3: 7540

hallelujah, ATI client core updated fixed the issues I had, now I'm doing 3300PPD from my 4870, PLUS it even gets along with SMP quite nicely, I'm still getting near 2000 PPD from it as well. So according to fahmon I'm about 15,500 PPD total

Right Guys! All you who have posted, edit yer posts and put in at the top PPD increase. %'s if you can aswell. We'll assume that there has been no change in clocks too. I'd like to get a better handle on who, and how this effected PPD across cards, OS etc.
8800GTX, 630Core, 1007Mem, 1693Shader, OS: Server 2008 64bit.
Old PPD: 5385
New PPD: 6189
14.9% Increase
Also guys... if you can't wait for Fahmon to stabilise, leave your machine for 2 mins and comback and check latest frame times. The lowest SHOULD be what your machine is potentially capable of. When you flick around with the desktop and IE etc, it'll kill a second or two off your frame times, ergo PPD.
Slowly updating this. I'll do my folding farm in a bit. Updated my 8800gts. If it does NOT do 6000 points, I'm doing something wrong. I usually get 5780. Lets see....
You must [not] advance.

Mike.. Can I use this upgrade or update on my GPU2 systemtray you had me download?? I'd love the increase also.
I ran my F@H All night.. pushed out 9 WU's.. not bad at all. and I found my Max stable shaders also. It's 1566 on my 260.. next step above was 1620, and it failed.
