3) Message boards : Number crunching : Updated GPU Requirements (Currently not supporting GPU tasks) (Message 61761) Posted 22 May 2014 by David Post: I think there are 2 MWAH tasks running by default? an dmy core usage seems to be close to 100%. I think i have figured something out - the program i use to monitor comp temps, usage, fans, etc, is called "open hardware monitor" it has a graphing function. when i leave the comp alone, and then come back to it, i believe that the gpu is in 100% use, which abruptly goes to 0%. i see this on the graph. so maybe it is a server/controller issue, and the 2 comps act differently on the same project because of the different operating systems - XP vs. 8.1? anyway, i am just in this game for the fun of it, and i enjoy trying to tweak the systems - although the picture remains quite murky for me, i think that maybe i am learning something about the comps. i need to do some more formal study at a far more basic level before i can really understand wth is going on. but i do appreciate the comments...

The GPU is still only showing very low core load(0-5% or so) maybe I am not doing something right still...
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Updated GPU Requirements (Currently not supporting GPU tasks) (Message 61754) Posted 22 May 2014 by David Post: Intel core 2 duo 8400, both running 100%, 70 deg. C. On the processes tab of task manager the CPU both read 49. priority is low - should i change that?
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Updated GPU Requirements (Currently not supporting GPU tasks) (Message 61748) Posted 21 May 2014 by David Post: OK so I put the GTX 460 in a separate somewhat lesser box, and started to work on MWAH - the problem now is that, using openhardwaremonitor, i am seeing only single digit (0-3-4-7%) usage values for GPU core, whereas before the GPU core was running at 90% or higher all the time. I realize that there are several differences in the machines - different OS, different CPU, different MB, etc. but shouldn't the servers be able to direct better use of the 460??? am i missing something???
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Updated GPU Requirements (Currently not supporting GPU tasks) (Message 61692) Posted 5 May 2014 by David Post: i would assume that both were running double precision? I did find this table, ranking gpu's: (1.000) GeForce GTX 780 Ti (0.909) GeForce GTX 570 (0.901) GeForce GTX 580 (0.871) GeForce GTX TITAN (0.811) GeForce GTX 780 (0.737) GeForce GTX 470 (0.648) GeForce GTX 460 (0.604) GeForce GTX 680 (0.517) GeForce GTX 295 (0.512) GeForce GTX 770 (0.501) GeForce GTX 560 Ti (0.474) Quadro 4000 (0.465) GeForce GTX 560 (0.462) GeForce GTX 670 (0.401) GeForce GTX 750 Ti (0.387) GeForce GTX 690 (0.378) GeForce GTX 660 Ti (0.368) Quadro FX 3800 (0.354) GeForce GTX 760 that surprises me, too! (note the relative position of the 460 vs. the 760)
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Updated GPU Requirements (Currently not supporting GPU tasks) (Message 61690) Posted 5 May 2014 by David Post: so i replaced my EVGA GeForce 460 with a GTX 760, uploaded the latest driver, and my average credit actually dropped??? This finding has me puzzled.
