12 WEEK AVG PPD CHANGE VS. WORK UNITS AVAILABLE - GeForce RTX 3080

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.
