You are getting some GPU work now, but just relative small amounts, and you're got loads of CPU work,
Do you have flops values in your app_info yet?, you might want to put those in to balance the apps out, (see the BOINC 6.10.58 incorrect running time estimation thread as to why).
Then it's just the case of making Boinc only ask for Nvidia GPU work (you can deselect the 'Use CPU' preference to stop Boinc asking for more CPU work, so Boinc will build up a GPU cache)

Claggy:
Here you are, I've just put in your APR values with e09 on the end, while your MB APR values probably aren't totally accurate, because of rebranding and two GPU's of different speed, they'll do for now,
Estimates will improve once you're worked through your existing cache:

TouchuvGrey:
Thank you once more Claggy. i owe you a six pack
of Sam Adams or something equally good if we ever meet.
TouchuvGrey:
Hello Claggy:
i installed your app info and everything went fine for about 18
hours. i got a pop up that said to reboot to intall an updated version of
some of my security sorftware ( EmiSoft Online Armor ++ version ) did so
started BOINC manager and computer froze up.
Repeated quite a number of time over the next 24 with the same
result. Tried 7.0.15, same result.
In desperation reinstalled original app info without flops values
and everything is fine again.
i've no doubt the issue is on my end rather than with the
modified app info. Any suggestions where i should look ?
