12 WEEK AVG PPD CHANGE VS. WORK UNITS AVAILABLE - GeForce GTX 1080

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.

Recent Work Unit Performance - GeForce GTX 1080

Average PPD is impacted by the types of research work units being done as they return different amounts of points and take different amounts of time.
