I am running quad cores on Intel Bad Axe boards and are showing results averaging between 1500-1600, less than half of what some people are achieving. I am using Boinc's latest version. How can I increase my productivity?

Thanks,

There are two ways.

1) Use the optimized science applications. This does, however, require paying attention. The application versions do occasionally change, and the optimized ones then may have to change as well. NOTE: The BOINC executable does NOT actually do the crunching, that is done by science applications that are downloaded by the BOINC client from the project servers. Optimized applications were developed by third parties.

2) Buy a faster machine :)

3) Buy a CUDA capavle video card.

Understood and thank you.
I have these machines overcloclocked now and they do about warp 5, hence my question. I Did try an Nvidia card w/cuda and it worked fine, but my processor would not run the same application along side of it. I found out later this is not posiible. I will look into the third party software. Thank you for responding!

If you are running the latest Boinc, as stated, (i.e. 6.6.20) then you can run Astropulse on the CPU cores and Multibeam with CUDA. Add that to Optimised Applications and you can move to Warp 9.
