Extremly low ppd?

Hi all, I hope you know me by now. I've been crunching for a few weeks now and gotten 6 Wu's done but besides my first WU batch that got 12k ppd I've never gotten over 5k. I have an i7 870 with all 8 threads running and a hd 7770 @ 1075/1243. What could be slowing me down? My stats are here.

And I'm sorry I'm not crunching for the teAm now, I founded my own team over at BeamNG. :|

EDIT: I just realized that my stupid phone autocorrected to an incorrect word. XD It should be extremely low ppd

Not really, I could ask in the off-topic but you quys have been folding for many years. Is everyone mad at me for making my own team?

EDIT: Sorry that the link redirected to the main page, it should link to the thread I created about F@H now.

Sorry for being a little snippy. I just thought it a bit unusual to leave a team and just come back to get help. I don't do either SETI or Folding so I can't help you there.
 
I have 21,257,005 points in F @ H but it's been awhile since I folded but I'll have a go at helping.

You used to need a passkey to get best ppd.

I think you need to crunch ten WUs with that passkey to qualify for bonus points.

I think you need with that CPU to crunch the WU from start to finish without stopping to qualify for best bonus points.

General Folding @ Home Rule: The faster you return results the more points you get.

If you don't return results within a certain amount of time you get no points.

And we are not mad at you for making your own team (although it is not good etiquette to leave and then come back only for help). We care about the TeAm here, but we care more about the people and the science 🙂
So we help if we can.
 
I have a passkey but I only have 7 WUs under my belt. Thanks for the help.

I plan to come back to the teAm eventually but I am folding for 3 teams atm so I have to deal with those issues. Rigs of rods, beamNG and the teAm are all getting WUs from me. XD Since beamng is a fledgling team I plan to give it 10 Wus then come back to teAm. Give 4 or 5 wus here than cycle to ror then start over. And I came here because you guys really are the most helpful forum on the internet.

And it was fine to be snippy. 😉

Isn't all that manual intervention kind of a pain? Best solution would be to get two more rigs, and dedicate one rig to each team. 🙂
