    Hmm... only slight discrepancies when you factor in that lost WU last week due to F@Hcore s***ting itself... but from what I can see my i5 must have only got about 1000 points from its last WU, which was a P6701! WTF??!? :confused::eek:

    Wow, that does seem low... my Q6600 gets ~4.1k points for each 6701.

    Was it longer than usual?

    Don't even have HFM on the testbench yet, but ~4200 - ~3100 = ~not a bloody lot :o:( And I do certainly recall from the logs that the P6701 took 26 hours to complete realtime (~20 hours for the machine but there was some downtime due to firewall issues - Zonealarm keeps schizing out on me, it really doesn't like me using my old PC as a bridge to its own wireless card to link the new machine to the router! :o)

    Well... all I can say is to hope it was a one-off. At any rate, I've heard no-one else complain about lower points than usual (for SMP anyway; everyone is complaining about GPU right now :p).

    I have a HD6850 so GPU isn't even an option! :eek: If it was I'd still be complaining! :D:P

    1100 points for a P6701... then ~3000 for a measly P60**?!? :eek: Oh well... over halfway through another P67**, tonight I'll find out whether it was a once-off or whether Stanford has had a serious and ongoing whoopsie...

    Yeah, you've just given up on GPUs for now I guess. :p Don't worry though; someday it'll be useful. :D

    But the 60xx Wus are the best... 6014s give me the best PPD. ;)

    Running P60**s I could easily get 6k PPD from the i5 - and that's at stock! :D

    Nope, at 2.93GHz I'm getting P60**s done in 8.5 hours for nearly 3k a pop :D:P

    Typical, I had a bad feeling this would be P6701/P6702 day, makes a bit of a mess of the timetable. :(

    I'm only getting 494pt WUs on the GPUs... bad PPD is bad. :(
