I have been successfully running Project 8009 WUs on three identical GTX570 cards.

All three have been turning in the units successfully at 1.48 TPF

Now one card working on 8009 (8,10,163) is turning in TPF40.35 consistently at each checkpoint.

I've not seen this before. Does it indicate a MUCH more complex processing task in the later generations, or is it the early warning sign of card failure. The card seems OK on sensor data from GPU-Z.

All suggestions welcome.

It could be a problem work unit, or a series of early units ends EUE's has caused a card slowdown.
You can try stopping all card overclocking and restart your computer and card. If it was a slow down due to this it should restart at the normal speed. If this is the case it could be caused by overheating/unstable overclocking so check your temps, fans and reduce overclocking if you are doing so.
If the issue continues post a log here.

Thanks
