Just an FYI to my fellow folders... I am switching back over to Prime... Having to manage the V7 so much just to keep getting the QRB stuff is not working out for me. I like to set and forget. Not look after it. All I am getting is 70XX's now and a few 8054's & 8018's for the last 4+ days. Not that they should not be done of course. But at least with Prime my Keplers are getting worked fully. Now if I still had any Fermi's that would be different. I would plug along. However I no longer own any Fermi's...

So keep up the good fight! I will return once my systems specs are met with a fully utilized core...

 
 
AB, what are you having to keep checking? With the Kepler cards it pretty much is set it forget with V7 after you add the "client-type"/"beta" flag. 

The 8057's are a little more spaced out now because so many people have been pulling them, but I'm still getting them here and there and I haven't touched my V7 since I made the switch last week. 

Fermi users have to check and make sure they keep the 2.22 core as opposed to the 2.25 core as you get much higher PPD with 2.22. 

 +1 to what kody said, and I also add
"next-unit-percentage" / "100" under the "name" and "value" headings, respectively..
 
You won't get all 8057's but you should be getting some if you're configured right.

 Sorry to see you taking a break, but its all good. It's all donation work. What you gave and give is always appreciated.

As far as I can tell, Fermi users don't have to keep checking if 2.25 gets downloaded. I've run a few 76xx wus, and the beta folder never gets touched.

I have noticed the same thing, it only changes the one in the Core_15.fah folder. The beta folder is untouched.

GT 440@stock with 8057 gets 9039 points/15,195 ppd  8min TPF  roughly 14 hours to complete.  

I stopped running the GT 440 a while back due to it constantly failing WU's.   At first it was ok, but after the 8081s came.. seemed it never could handle WU's anymore.  Maybe now it will?  Anyway at least it's ppd with QRB with be 15,000, instead of the 3000/4000 it was doing.

Did you downgrade the core to 2.22? If not do so the PPD will be even better.

you cannot get them with tracker
use v7

i use jedis tracker and with a 680 4gb i have not got a beta,i have addvements and all runnig,should i  switch trackers.

I had the same experience, switch to V7

yea version 7 is really needed for this guys, I too thought it would be complicated to figure out but it was easier then I thought.

question guys
 
I know the v7 client shows the correct ppd for project 8057, but is thier way to fix the 8057 project from showing up as 0 PPD in HFM.net? normally I just have to update the project list under tools > download projects from stanford, but that isn't working for this unit

These projects don't show up on the regular psummary list but on the psummaryC list (incl. advance and beta projects).
So if you direct HFM (Edit -> Preferences -> Web Settings - Project Download URL) to that list they will show up.

I am using that setting and client-type beta... Yet I see 4+ failed WU's and a pile of 70XX's... I also now have two folders inside Nvidia. One Core 15 the other beta. I just assumed that this was normal and let them run. But with the failures and no 8057"s I started to delete V7 once the WU was done, re-install and set the settings.. Get either 8018 or 8057's... Let them run all day or night, come back to check... I see completed 8018's and 8057's.. then the 70XX's failing.. Shut down, rinse and repeat... Wallah.. Done with it...

if I knew the failures - I could help...ie like post them

70xx units are SMP
(ya it suxs but you have to get thru them to get rid of them for better wu's later - provided stanford fixes points/bonus there)

V7 pretty much set it  & forget it
posting bugs is something you do to get a better client
so lets get V7 fixed while we can

anyways if you want to do DC.... it's in need of love too

 
The beta and core_15 folders are normal :)

Fold on! :)

Thanks Wolf.   Just changed the core to 2.22 since I wasn't sure if I had it or not..   
 
Update:
 
GT 440 *Zotac 1GB ddr3 @ 810* with FahCore 2.22:   WU 8057 gets 10,145 points / 21804 ppd with a TPF 6min+-
 
Definitely a nice little bump.  I'll keep that 2.22 core on the desktop for easy changing. 

no 76xx here, just been getting 8018,8054 and 8057

8018, 8043, 8045,8056
 
1 lone 8018 just cycled and grabbed another one

You may have to install an older driver, I had same problem on a GTX9800 for it not to fail

 
 The GT 440 works fine in the  ASUS  M3A78 with the 306 driver, at least so far.   It just finished the last 8057, and now its on another 8057 for another 10 hours.   I'd have to see if it runs a 76xx or a hot 8018 without failing though.
 
It instantly failed all the WU's on the DFI Lanparty x58.  That was with beta, advanced, and normal WUs.    I tried different drivers, 266, 285, and latest 306.   The DFI Lanparty X58 board is what seems to be the issue.  It just can't power the card I guess.    The GTX 285, I regret selling, worked great in the board, but only with the 191.07 drivers.  Otherwise.. constant driver crashes, etc in Win 7.

Newegg has the 560Ti 448-core board for $180 minus $30 "rebate card". 

Sounds like a pretty good deal for Fermi folding; anyone see other good offers for folders?

 
bstock has a GTX 480 for $169, they should do about the same PPD as a GTX 570 which is around 130K
 
its a high power usage card though, 300w I think
