Hi guys, I'm a little surprised about the score that my home pc get every day. The average is 200-300 credits with 50% of CPU allowed to work. Here is my pc

GenuineIntel
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9550 @ 2.83GHz [Family 6 Model 23 Stepping 10]
(4 cpu)  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 (1279MB) driver: 361.45 OpenCL: 1.1 Linux

4.4.0-31-generic

I had tried to set CPU to 100% and the results are almost the same. Do you think this is the max that my CPU can make?

Hey Otacon,
As a general rule, 1 GPU needs 1 CPUcore to feed it.
Then, depending on the GPU app (Cuda##, sah, SoG) being used, the best output also sometimes requires a free CPU core.
So for your Core2Quad, your safest best is only to process tasks on 2 CPUcores.
If you plan to use the PC for other uses, this is usually the best setting also.
Once you get an idea of your daily output, you can try processing 3 tasks on CPUcores.

As for your low output on that PC, it seems it was not processing much during the last 40 days.

Let me know if you have Qs/concerns/comments.
Cheers,
Rob :-)

The tasks look to be taken a fairly normal range of run-times, so there may be something else causing the apparent low RAC.
A couple of questions:
How many concurrent tasks are you running on the GPU?
Have you got computing suspended when the computer is in use?
How many hours a day is the computer running?
The answers to all of these will affect the number tasks executed in a day.
