everyone calm down
 
jimmy
I please remember that not everyone sees things the way you do. remember that. try to be helpful without unintentional making anyone uncomfortable
 
the idea is to help people without chasing members away
 
Tex: had I been up I would have answered you right away, thus avoiding this whole ordeal
I however do need a bit of sleep now and then
 
just remember that some people may not have had their cup of java in the morn and may not comprehend well on either end.
(let alone the morning monday blues and java withdrawl)
 
the last thing we need to do is lose more members
 
anyways steady diet of 8057's now

To my fellow team-mates where we have worked together on so many occasions, I should not have said "maybe it's time to do something else".  You folks deserve better than that, and I also appreciate the words of encouragement.  I feel the same way about you too and this is a great team in many ways.  I should have just waited and one of you would have been along to answer.  I know that, and should have waited for it rather than get into a tit-for-tat with another person's response.  I just wanted to pop back-in and let you know how much I appreciate you guys, your help and dedication to our team.  I'm still here.

I just put in my old GTX 460 and got an 8057 WU and I'm getting a TPF of 3:18 and Est. PPD of 61K.
Does that sound right? It seems a bit low.

which core you using v2.25 or v2.22?
2.22 will give you better results (but you have to manually downgrade to get that)

Is this something that need to be babysat or is it a one and done fix. Want to switch my 2nd rig to v7 from tracker but must be a set it and forget it fix. 

Another thing in v7, Can i set a quad to fold on only 2 cores without 3rd party apps? Would like to see how v7 works on that rig but not going to take the ppd hit on the 460s to find out.

No babysitting needed, but keep a backup of 2.22 just in case
As far as setting it to use 2 out of 4 I can't help with that

I don't feel so lost now. I figured I was the only one having difficulty setting up v7.
When I first opened it up, I couldn't even find the expert tab because the v7 window
was too small.

You can set it to limit the cores(threads). If you're on a quad core 8 thread, you
probably want to set it to 6. That's as far as my help can go cause I'm on my phone.
Just keep looking, its in there somewhere, lol.

I need to babysit since every time a 76xx WU is sent the new core is downloaded.  This is with Tracker, not sure about V7.  Since that WU needs core 2.25 it's likely a universal problem.

Yeah, 76xx will force 2.25 in v7. It happened to me overnight. That Wu has a real high tpf, so you have to wait quite awhile before you can go back to 2.22. I had 200k ppd yesterday, I'll be lucky to get 50k today.

1st one 

THIS gives me hope!  

Haven't seen an 8057 yet.  Wondering if V7 really makes a difference on the assignment.

v7 seems to cause less lag issues with my GTX 670. What settings do I need to change in v7? I'm a v7 n00b. 

Change it to Expert. Go to Configure--Slots--GPU--Edit--Extra slot options--Add-- Name:Client-type-- Value:beta

Click Ok twice and Save

Thanks! I actually figured it out while I was waiting for a response but it's nice to know I did the right thing. Still waiting for some QRB goodness.

That's what i figured. Have not seen any 762x WUs on that rig in a couple weeks but i know my luck. Will just wait till the testing is over to switch to v7 on that rig.
 
@ Xavier Zepherious, thanks for the info on limiting threads. Its just a q9550 but i have to have a way to limit what it does. I think the mobo is on its way out, had trouble folding on the cpu for a while if let go full bore. Spent way to much time trouble shooting it and letting it run with just 2 cores seems to be fine(so far, crosses fingers )

Apparently you can have two cores in V7. There's two core folders and when I got a 76xx, it only forced 2.25 into Core_15 folder. It left 2.22 alone in the Beta folder.

This is good info, I'll keep an eye on it when I do the conversion to V7 tonight.  Thanks

That's odd.  Mine changed both to 2.25 straight away. Might do some testing on this later today.

 
Maybe the WU I received wasn't a beta?  Not sure, but if you think about it, why would a single WU change two folders?

That would be because a first run + 1st WU of each it defaults to the latest version with V7 it will down load v2.25 for both folders.
Once you change the beta folder to v2.22 it should remain that way until they force v2.25 for beta. Witch may happen at some point.

As for the other Core_15 folder it can be downgraded any time to 2.22 so long as its not working a 76xx WU.
76XX WU will auto force a new download back to 2.25.
Once downgraded to 2.22 on a 8xxx WU so long as you continue to get those it will remain 2.22.

To those of you that just joined the beta team and are posting results,  thank you for joining!
