All WUs for my CPU are low credits

Post by Hawk4x4 »

Hi everyone. I am new to folding and I have a low understanding of exactly what this project does or how it works. That is fine, as long as we are helping. However, I am on a new team we created about two weeks ago, and I noticed that I have completed the most WUs, but my other team members have 4-5 times more credit for their WUs. My CPU has only ever received WUs worth 900 or less. I have been running my PC on full in FAH for about two weeks, yet I have only managed about earn just shy of 400K, yet members of my team who started after me are hitting 1-2 million credits. Our leader on our team is using a 9 year old PC with a second gen Core i7, and he told me his WUs he is receiving are significantly higher in credit than mine. I'm on a first gen Ryzen 5 processor, so its not old by any means. Am I missing something? Are there any settings I can change to open my self up to higher credit WUs?

If it helps:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600
GPU: Radeon RX 480
Team: 250140

Any help, even just explanation, would be appreciated.

Can you post your logs so we can try to figure out why?

Hi,

Same question, times 115 computers. I will harvest some logs and see what is to be seen. I could care less about the points, I care if the WUs are not actually helping. These are business class workstations so they probably lack a usable GPU.

How do I find my logs? I'm looking through the FAQs but having some difficulty finding that info.

I haven't requested a passkey. I just did and that changed everything. Thank you for the help.
