FOLDING@HOME PPD PERFORMANCE

GPU Folding Overview GeForce RTX 3060

Folding@Home PPD for the GeForce RTX 3060 represents the averages of folding work unit samples collected from a wide variety of users different computer hardware configurations.

Average values are used to best represent folding PPD performance of a GeForce RTX 3060 across different F@H projects and user variables such as power settings, overclocks, operating system and specific work units which can yield wildly different highs and lows for PPD scores on the same GPU platform.

12 WEEK AVG PPD CHANGE VS. WORK UNITS AVAILABLE - GeForce RTX 3060

GPU PPD average changes week to week for a number of reasons such as credit for type of projects/causes available, varience in work unit difficulty, OS/GPU drivers, folding cores, GPU models, clocks, power targets etc.

The chart below serves as a way to see historical week to week performance change as PPD for a GPU is never a constant, as the work units processed are always changing.
