My old computer was a AMD Phenom II x4 940 running at 3,00 GHz. It had 8 GB of RAM and used a AMD HD4850 single Slot 512 MB GPU

My actual System is a AMD FX-8350, 16 GB of RAM and a HD7970 3 GB GPU.

On good day I went over 200k credits/d. Now I'm glad about 50.000!
GPU usage is (according to AMD Vision Control Center) only about 50%. With the HD4850 it was nearly 100%.
CPU usage is avtual at 100%, too.

Temps are ok (about 55° for CPU and GPU while running BOINC), all WUs ok.

What's up? Why so low credits with a system so much faster?

Here's my rig ...

Regards

This is the Boinc (Development) Forums, we can't see what projects your computers are attached to, or if they are producing valid work, Best ask at the projects concerned.
