You're doing good Sun.

The other factor is VOLTAGE for the processor. YOU CAN increase the voltage to help the processor (GPU) run at a higher speed versus stock. The voltage helps stabilize the gpu so it has enough UMPH (HorsePower)to run faster than normal.

HOwever, the best place to start is simply by increasing the SHADER SPEED gradually and let it run awhile each time to make sure that it is stable and not re-starting itself due to instability. THAT is when you can try to adjust the VOLTAGE of the GPU, to make it more stable.

Hope this helps,

micro... Very Happy

BAP,

On the 3-D thing - I'm not sure if it takes a computer re-boot or just shutting down folding and restarting it that's been kicking the GPU back into 3D - ArVee or Micro can help answer that. From past conversations, I'm not sure we know what causes the video cards to kick out of 3D.

On the other question - what to adjust - about the middle of the Precision X screen is a slider called "GPU Clock Offset" - it's a little on the sensitive side - so very carefully bump it up 2-3 Mhz. If it runs good there and doesn't error out - bump it up 2-3 more. My card was already overclocked - so I had to go very slowly like that - if your card isn't already overclocked - you might be able to bump it up 5-10 Mhz increments. Go too far, and it will error out and shut down folding on the card.

ArVee - Micro - you guys are the experts on overclocking - jump in here.

Sun :-)
