Same thing happened to me on my 2x5850's where it would BSOD before finishing the WUs.

You can lower the memory clock to as low as it will go as it doesn't make any difference to the performance and that tends to produce a lot of heat. On my 2x5850's I run them at a small OC of 775 and the memory downclocked to 300, that and a higher set manual fan speed leave them running under 60C most of the time with an ambient room temp b/w 22~25C.

Looks like there isn't any more GPU work and the assimilator has stopped working.

It appears someone's messing with the server, or there's a problem...

I do not believe that they do. Also none of the ones I've completed have validated yet, hope that changes by morning.

You could get the 6950 and apply the BIOS unlock to make it a 6970 and save a few bucks - what the yeck buy 2 6950's and apply the BIOS unlock to both!

Can you give me some mor[e] info please?

I'd say it's at least 200K, my 2x5850's are doing 300K~330K together depending on the day.

It looks like your version of BOINC should work and your computer has downloaded some tasks so everything is working on that end. You probably need to make sure you don't have GPU use suspended in the client; under Activity > Use GPU always or based on preferences and than in Advanced > Preferences you have "Use GPU while computer is in use" checked.

The other thing I've discovered that will kick your card into 2d mode is most web based video (eg youtube); fortunately this recovers as soon as the offending tab is closed.

That is because the new Adobe Flash 10.1 has GPU acceleration of flash embedded video, you can disable it but right clicking on the video and deselecting hardware acceleration.

It also looks like he might be using an outdated app or maybe even a single precision one as the only valid results are without a wingmen, at least on the first page that I checked.

I was browsing the ATI/AMD Developer KB and ran across this, might it have something to do with the apparent problems with 58xx series cards?
