How to read this

Values use the same weekly community averages as the detailed chart.

  • Weekly movement can reflect project mix, available work units, drivers, or operating systems rather than a lasting hardware change.
  • Use the detailed chart to compare operating systems and work-unit availability across the full period.

12 WEEK AVG PPD CHANGE VS. WORK UNITS AVAILABLE - Radeon RX 6800(XT)/6900XT

GPU PPD average changes week to week for a number of reasons such as credit for type of projects/causes available, variance 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.

Why your PPD may differ

PPD is a guide, not a fixed result. Daily output changes with the work-unit mix, including project, points, atom count, and deadline, as well as system conditions such as OS, drivers, clocks, thermals, and power limits.
