Ok so a little backstory, I have been having issues with this card on both Seti and Einstien and now it seems on Milky way.

Seti seems to have been sorted by forcing it to just the cuda_50 units and not the 32 / 42 but time will tell on that and its still odd as people say all the units should crunch on my card.

So I then thought hmm is it just seti thats playing up so I checked my einstien stats and sure enough all the units I did before there servers went down are listed as invalid.

I then readded milky way to this machine and all the units i have just done have come up as validation inconclusive

I have posted on the other two message board and again here in the hope I can get to the bottom of it.

Card is a EVGA 970 FTW

It used to be in another machine of mine and I saw no errors when it was in that box I then moved it into this box to replace my r9 290x as that was giving me the black screen of death issue, and now since that card is in this machine I seem to have the issues.

It works fine for everything else, gaming / furmark ect but seems to be giving lots of errors on boinc?

Pulling my hair out at this point, any ideas??

hmm it looks like the validation inconclusive units are slowly ticking over to being validated.

Any ideas why they all dropped as inconclusive?

"Validation Inconclusive" simply means that they are waiting for someone else to confirm your result, it is not the same as a validation error.

This is a validation error, I think.

If you go in and look at each 'inconclusive' unit you will see this:
Validate state Checked, but no consensus yet

That just means you are waiting on your wingman to crunch his unit, then if both are close enough to being the same you will both get credits. If his result is not close enough to be 'validated' then the unit will get sent to another pc, up to 9 times, before the project itself tries to validate the unit or mark it as unusable.
