Try rebooting the pc, your pc's are hidden so I can't tell what OS you are using but in Windows a reboot is the only way to fix that.


I finally returned to 1 Wu per Gpu

Temperature are more stable and seem I can use pc.

I will help project in this way that is surely better than before...

Nice to see many of you are supervolounteer...

Thank you to all for every help given to me.

Faithfully and take care..

Hello Vester,

Nice you are lucky with cost of energy, I see a statistic about the cost of energy here in Europe and I wondered how much cost energy also in other european nations....

I hope you will find the number of wu per CPU that is good for your system..

I'm not to sure 2 wu are good for mine I experiment some limited freeze for some seconds and I think to return to 1 Wu at a time...

There is a strange warning onto my elaborations log that says my estimated dp power is 325 GFlops but in realty I do 70 GFlops....

here an extrapolation of elaboration log....
3 warnings generated.
Estimated AMD GPU GFLOP/s: 351 SP GFLOP/s, 70 DP FLOP/s
Warning: Bizarrely low flops (70). Defaulting to 100....

In the folder of app_config.xml i see exists also txt files of main elaboration tasks of milkyway do you have any idea of their use?

Bye and see you soon.

Hi Vester, it's better said by you. Ok I said 42 Wu thinking at the total WU onto all your GPUs. I forgot a S. More or less I think we are saing the same thing.

In any way.

I set 0,5 for both cpu and GPU in the app_config file.

Now my system should do 2 Wu with my only card and more or less it took 170-180 seconds instead of doing 1 Wu in 100 Second perhaps resources are better allocated in this way.

I hope I'll have no problem with normal use of my system....

I'd like to ask you another thing. How much do you spend more or less for KW there in USA. You surely would have good rates.

Here more or less people spend 0,25 € per Kw (taxes included (taxes....are regolar VAT, cost of the transport and managing of energy, system's charges)).

Is soo foolish even there?

Have a nice sunday.

Sure Vester I've read the post you told on running more wu ontu GPU.

But I thought to do only a workunit because my Gpu is weak on Dp compared to yours and It have a GPU load of 98 %. Perhaps It manages to do more Wu but I'm not sure than I have enought power for normal Pc use or that temperatures growing up.

In any way with your example I perfectly understand how to do the xml file so I will surely give a try.

Woooww So your card take 300 second but computes 42 workunit in that time ... wooowww

Nice to hear about it.

Thank you again and again in having show how things work with this kind of computation.

Have a nice sunday.

Hi Vester nice to meet you.

I continue in my thinking about GPU computation with milkiway separation tasks but there is something I missing..

I have a Low estimated Dp in FP 64 but more or less my system takes 100 sec to complete a Wu of at around 2xx,00 credit. (I use my full gpu and a core of my cpu)

I look some statistic of You Vester and also Jstateson. Looking the DP's abilities of yours GPU you should have more and more elaboration power in DP calculation than me.... But why both you two Vester and Jstateson take more time to complete works. What I missing? Do you share GPU time with more projects, dont' you use all the 100% of time of your GPU cards?

I just making these considerations to undetestands data and how things would work but it's sure I'm missing something in my undestanding predictions.

Faithfully

Hoping of heard of you soon.

Yea, I can share my problem:

I have six of the "firepro"
https://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/top_hosts.php
There are 3 people ahead of me on the stats list. Two have a pair of VII and one has a pair of Titans. My 6 firepro (five s9000, one s9100) draw 1050 watts on a 220v line in the garage.

Hello JStateson

you are more lucky tthan me!! Surely you will climb the table score.... a day or another day...

Me instead,
spent some time in last days on seeing if my Gpu seller replaced a faulty one that emitted high sounds when working with 3d accelaration with a countefeited one.
So that I benchmarked and see if the gpu card work in accordance with its references data SP DP ....
It's told that here in Italy as in other places you have to pay attention to conterfeited devices (that work but that aren't exactly what you buy for)..
Silly isn't it?

Have a nice time there.

Thank you Mikey for the reply :)))

Nice to have seen that list of fp 32 Fp 64 power with GPU models..

I took on mind the next time I upgrade perhaps buying something not new.

Recently I upgrade my pc and I upgraded the GPU with a new card of the RX 5700 family (navy)

Reading some tasks done I noticed my new graphic card performs like an old GPU of hd 6900 family (caymann).

I was wondering on how so few was changed in Doble precision Open Cl performance till that period.

The main point is that a navy cost much more than how Cayman did on 2011.

the good point of view on my opinion is I consume at about 115 W for this computation power with a GPU load of 98-99 % per WU with only 64-65 ° C of temperature (separation with ati GPu) - thats good in preserving electronic device

I don't know instead how much does consume the cayman series.

Does someone whant to share his/her thinking?

Have a nice time there to all.

Faithfully.

Hello It's Diego,

I hope I can help you or some other with similar problem of GPU being not recognized by M@W

Beg pardon if I write you only now but something closest to your situations happend to me some days ago.


It's seems that if you install boinc as service (an option of boinc installer) is sure more secure but doesn't allow Boinc and Milkyway proceding to recognize our Ati GPU.

But if you and anyone wants to use its own GPU you have to not select the installation option of having installed boinc as service.

have a nice time to everyone here.

Faitfully.
