Preface summary: Recently purchased two 970 FTWs to replace my two GTX 680's (4GB VRAM models) in my main PC. I've been recording my own folding statistics since the addition of the 970's. Initially I was only running the 970's in the main PC, and relegated one 680 to the secondary PC (only one PCIE slot - the specifications for both PCs are in the signature line), in an attempt to pull all "like" WUs to compare the 970 to the 680.
However, as of today, I decided to go ahead and utilize the idle 680, that was not being used to produce work, to put in the main PC to see if I could capture identical WUs. What do you know....
I've been waiting for the 'apple-to-apple' comparison event to occur before sharing findings, and go figure, after starting the [link=mailto:F@H]F@H[/link] Client, I pulled all 9201 (Core 17) WUs. Obviously we're aware that Core 18 hasn't been fully utilizing (for lack of better term) the 900 series, so this isn't the greatest comparison for future reference, but for today, I'd suspect that it is. What was reported by FAHControl is shown below (excerpt from log + screen shot):

As a side note, this has quite honestly surpassed all previous production from any configuration I've owned. Quite pleased today.
