Regardless of the power bill increase I will pay I feel good about doing this. Its like donating a $1 a day to charity. Anyways is 10K-15K PPD good for an i5 3570K.

Yes, increased power combined with wear and tear is the cost of your donation of surplus CPU cycles. I do not have any way to make that less of a deal for you personally. Thank you for your donation.
I don't have one of those processors to compare it against, so I would be a poor judge of normal PPD.

for a daily use machine under windows, its not bad. if its a dedicated box under linux, its running slow.

If you have a Kepler GPU, it is not folding. There are two problems.
First, FAH V7.1.52 was released before the Kepler hardware existed and it does not recognize these GPUs unless you follow the instructions in this forum to download GPUs.txt and restart the client.
Second, the CUDA-based FahCore used to process WUs needs some important changes before it will work with Kepler. Some of these changes are being beta tested but they're not ready for release. Please be patient.
NOTE: Not all GeForce 600 series GPUs are Kepler A few are rebranded Fermi. Note the second letter in the chip's code name (e.g.- GF119 vs. GK107)
