A team mate of mine created a GPU stats table nearly 3yrs ago (see here if interested http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2064356 ), it was quite interesting but is rather out of date now with higher run times* from current apps (I guess?).
*Little bit of info in my new GPU stats AT thread here http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2366988

So I know lots of people running MW like to know how their rigs compare to other peoples, whilst you can look through the MW BOINC stats the info is rather vague, it doesn't give clock speeds or specific GPUs for example.

So I'm hoping we can create a useful table here with input from all you MW crunchers :)

Now I must admit I'm only somewhat familiar with the GPU apps, so I'm not sure if my chosen credit size WU (213.76) for benchmarking will run on CPUs! I see in my stats that it's run by Milkyway@Home Separation (Modified Fit) v1.28.
So please LMK if their's a problem here for CPUs.

Requirements for benchmark, validated 213.76 credit WUs only, average of 5 WU times*, dedicated CPU core for the GPU, please state clock speeds if overclocked (including factory o/cs) or state 'stock'. It would also be handy if you could state your BOINC & driver version & OS, incase it does make any odds.

*I chose 5 thinking this will give a good enough average, but if you disagree LMK, & LMK why :).

So feel free to share your new scores for old & new GPUs alike!
I will update & expand the tables as necessary.

Damn, I've just realised this stupid forum blocks editing after 1hr! :/
I'll speak to the mods to see if they can somehow make an exception here, otherwise it's not going to work very well! We naturally want an upto date chart in the 1st post!
If not I'll have to put an up to date tables at the end of the thread.

HD 7770, 1100 MHz, 1 WU - 724s / WU
HD 7950, 1100 MHz, 2 WUs - 115-230s / WU (times vary extremely, so it's hard to average, but the mean time might be ~170s)

Hi thanks for your reply :), but we really need an average of 5 WUs to make the times meaningful. Also the variation should be tiny (bar when say playing a game or transcoding etc. & you've left MW on, in which case don't use that time ;) ).

Are you sure you are looking at 213.76 credit WUs only?

The variation on my 5850 was only +/- 0.5s when I looked at about 6-7 WUs when it had a dedicated CPU core for the GPU, when it didn't the variation was about +/- 5s. e.g
660229994 494167700 2 Feb 2014, 12:20:27 UTC 2 Feb 2014, 14:40:02 UTC Completed and validated 286.51 4.29 213.76 Milkyway@Home Separation (Modified Fit) v1.28 (opencl_amd_ati)

That's from validated tasks for my HD 5850, without a dedicated core, hence the slower times (GPU load is down to ~80%).

Yes, I'm looking at those WUs only.
But that machine has 2x HD7950 and running 2 WUs/GPU. Moreover, one of those GPUs doesn't seem to run at 100% GPU utilization sometimes. I'm not sure why that happens and I tried changing several things... So that might explain the large variation.

Ah right, I guess I should of said only 1 WU/GPU as that will roughly nearly double the WU times I guess.

So you need to run just 1 WU per GPU & have a dedicated CPU core per GPU.
I'm not actually 100% sure you need 1 CPU core/GPU but doing so eliminates any doubts.
You could always experiment with that & report the various times, if you have time? :).

As for the lack of GPU utilisation, do they have 1 or 2 CPU cores dedicated? If at all?

Btw what sort of ppd boost do you get from running 2WUs/GPU?
Awesome rig btw! :D

I'll try 1 WU/GPU and will post the times.
Currently I'm running 0.5 CPU/WU. I tried different schemes, different clocks and settings and it's always that the 1st GPU runs a lot of time at ~64% utilization and lower clock only..

OK, now it's running 1CPU+1GPU / WU. Stats here: http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=511651&offset=0&show_names=0&state=4&appid=10

So it seems the average runtime for those WUs with 1CPU+1GPU (HD 7950@1100) is 81s.

I'm not seeing the WUs you mention, I guess they've gone further down the list....... ah yea , had to go a few pages back, yes 81s, awesome! :D
And thx for your time :)
Did you get 100% utilisation with 1 CPU per GPU?

Btw, so what sort of output (ppd) do you gain from running 2 WUs at a time?
A further thought, can you get consistent WU times running 2 WUs at once? If so I could add that to the stats.

Oh until/if I can edit the 1st post I'll have to post the latest table in my last post (although I will update the AT thread with it too).

Yes, I have switched back to 2 WUs/GPU, so you had to scroll back a bit.
I don't remember what's the exact difference between running 1 and 2 WU/GPU, but PPD is surely higher with 2. If you check the usage, each WU is utilizing CPU at start and GPU is at 0% for a few secs (probably CL kernel compile). So this 'hole' in GPU utilization can be eliminated by running multiple WUs.

Ah ok, so just a small gain then.

So Did you get near 100% utilisation with 1 CPU per GPU?

Hi, sorry need times for 213.76 credit WUs only to be able to compare.
LMK when you've got some of them.

No, still a problem with the 1st GPU. 81s was probably with the GPU at 100% and those 90s must have been from the other one.
I'll try to install the new 14.1 Catalyst if that changes anything maybe. If not, I'll try to go back to older versions.

Sorry for offtopic - just because you asked ;-)
It seems the issue was that power limit was not applied properly for that GPU. I switched to latest MSI AB (v3.0 Beta18), unlocked unofficial OC, extended limits, voltage control (reduce VDDC from stock 1.25V, which is way high), etc.. Now it seems to be fine :-)

No probs, interesting stuff & could help others get nr 100% load :).

So what was up with the power limit, too low? Was it at stock?
Are you getting faster times now?

I'm betting Cat 14.1 doesn't do MW any favours! ;)

I'm not sure what was the problem, probably the +20% power limit wasn't applied to all GPUs. Maybe a Cat problem, because I don't run in Xfire and Cat reports the other GPU as "disabled".
I'm currently running Cat 14.1 and all is well so far.

You haven't included my HD7770 times posted here:

Ah sorry, I missed that after our discussion about your 7950s.

HD 7770, 1100 MHz, 1 WU - 724s / WU

Re 1 WU, did that mean running 1 WU at a time, or that was the time from a single WU?
Oh also are all 7770s, GHz edition?
