3) Message boards : Number crunching : Stats dropping for several days. (Message 68100) Posted 6 Feb 2019 by Michael Yusko Post: I think I found the problem. Razer installed a mining program (to earn credits for Razer gear) on my machine. It's supposed to crunch with the GPU. I DISABLED it, but it still must've been affecting the GPU because my stats kept dropping until I UNINSTALLED it. My stats are climbing again! https://www.dropbox.com/s/kh0g95ktyslp4zd/Screenshot%202019-02-06%2011.10.35.png
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Stats dropping for several days. (Message 68087) Posted 31 Jan 2019 by Michael Yusko Post: 8 cores free. On this machine I only crunch with the GPU. I was averaging between 150 to 160k/day.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Stats dropping for several days. (Message 68083) Posted 31 Jan 2019 by Michael Yusko Post: I complete a WU about every 1 minutes and 47 seconds. It is not showing any errors on my end.
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Stats dropping for several days. (Message 68077) Posted 28 Jan 2019 by Michael Yusko Post: I have not made any configuration changes, and tasks are running. AMD Wattman shows the GPU is fully utilized and when I suspend the project, it's not. Any ideas why my host stats have bee dropping steadily since 1/16? https://boincstats.com/en/stats/-1/host/detail/337157625/charts It's an RX480!
7) Message boards : Number crunching : WU restart every 20% (Message 65989) Posted 7 Dec 2016 by Michael Yusko Post: Ah, this makes sense. I just looked a little closer and the timer counts up appropriately, but the countdown changes according to the restarts. A bit confusing. My RX 480 burns through these things at 1:32 each. By contrast my HD 7770 on another machine does them in 5:47 each. Thanks.
8) Message boards : Number crunching : WU restart every 20% (Message 65986) Posted 6 Dec 2016 by Michael Yusko Post: I start a WU and it will eventually run to completion, but only after it runs to 20%, restarts, runs to 40%, restarts, runs to 60%, restarts, runs to 80%, restarts, then finally runs to 100% and completes. See log below for an example WU. It's exactly 20.00%, 40.00%, etc too. Thought's? It's slowing me down dramatically. 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| Starting BOINC client version 7.6.22 for windows_x86_64 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| log flags: file_xfer, sched_ops, task 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| Libraries: libcurl/7.45.0 OpenSSL/1.0.2d zlib/1.2.8 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| Data directory: D:\ProgramData\BOINC 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| Running under account mpyusko 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| OpenCL: AMD/ATI GPU 0: Ellesmere (driver version 2117.14 (VM), device version OpenCL 2.0 AMD-APP (2117.14), 8192MB, 8192MB available, 3865 GFLOPS peak) 12/6/2016 12:09:51 PM \| \| OpenCL CPU: AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor (OpenCL driver vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., driver version 2117.14 (sse2,avx,fma4), device version OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP (2117.14)) 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Host name: gibson 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Processor: 8 AuthenticAMD AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor [Family 21 Model 2 Stepping 0] 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Processor features: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 htt pni ssse3 fma cx16 sse4_1 sse4_2 popcnt aes f16c syscall nx lm avx svm sse4a osvw ibs xop skinit wdt lwp fma4 tce tbm topx page1gb rdtscp bmi1 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| OS: Microsoft Windows 10: Professional x64 Edition, (10.00.14393.00) 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Memory: 15.90 GB physical, 31.90 GB virtual 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Disk: 931.51 GB total, 374.99 GB free 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Local time is UTC -5 hours 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Config: don't compute while hl2.exe is running 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Config: don't compute while Rage.exe is running 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Config: don't compute while Rage64.exe is running 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Config: don't compute while Ryse.exe is running 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Config: don't use GPUs while Rage.exe is running 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| \| Config: don't use GPUs while Rage64.exe is running 12/6/2016 12:09:52 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| URL http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/; Computer ID 704050; resource share 100 12/6/2016 12:11:08 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Starting task de_modfit_fast_19_3s_140_bundle5_ModfitConstraints3_2_1480516808_2062060_1 12/6/2016 12:11:29 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Sending scheduler request: To fetch work. 12/6/2016 12:11:29 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Reporting 1 completed tasks 12/6/2016 12:11:29 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Requesting new tasks for AMD/ATI GPU 12/6/2016 12:11:30 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Scheduler request completed: got 13 new tasks 12/6/2016 12:12:41 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Message from task: 0 12/6/2016 12:12:41 PM \| Milkyway@Home \| Computation for task de_modfit_fast_19_3s_140_bundle5_ModfitConstraints3_2_1480516808_2062060_1 finished
9) Message boards : Number crunching : AMD HD6950 Crunches for 3 minutes then freezes computer.... Every time. (Message 63949) Posted 24 Sep 2015 by Michael Yusko Post: Well after my computer sitting idle for about 6 months, I just upgraded it to an FX-8350 running factory clocks and my old GPU. I used to be 1.5 min per WU, now I'm at 23s for every Modified Fit WU. I used to utilize more of my GPU though (97%). Now with a much better CPU I'm only using about 35% of my GPU, max. Strange. But hey, I'm back to crunching away, so I'm happy. :-) AMD FX-8350 (4GHz) CPU Asus M5A99FX-Pro Mobo 8GB G.Skill RipJaws X DDR3 @1866 Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 6950 2GB OC Edition @820/1250 Catalyst 15.8 Linux 64 Drivers BOINC 7.4.22 Slackware 14.1 Other miscellaneous software, hardware and accessories.
10) Message boards : Number crunching : AMD HD6950 Crunches for 3 minutes then freezes computer.... Every time. (Message 62612) Posted 22 Oct 2014 by Michael Yusko Post: My specs are in my signature. I'm running factory clocks using Slackware64 14.1. As it says in the subject, I can only crunch with my GPU for 3 minutes before it crashes X. It will freeze my display. CPU crunching will apparently continue, however GPU will not. I have the latest stable 14.9 Catalyst driver and AMD APP installed. Obviously GPU crunching is working, slightly. I mean everything is in place and detected. It just doesn't have any endurance. CPU crunching is multi-week stable. What's going on? I like to game on Steam too, so I need the latest optimized drivers for that stuff. Thoughts? The ONLY way I've ever seen a 6900 series gpu run is with the 13.2 version of the drivers, you may just be out of luck here. It is a project thing, NOT on your end. Project or Driver? Sorry I don't understand the question. Is it because the project hasn't updated code or is it because the driver somehow lost support/functionality that it used to have? Basically who should I complain to? Back with 13.2 drivers, as you stated. I was crunching like crazy. turning out a wU every 1.5 minutes. Ever since then, my GPU has been idle and I haven't been able to help further the project.

15) Message boards : Number crunching : de_separation tasks, Error Computing (Message 60344) Posted 8 Nov 2013 by Michael Yusko Post: I hear it was frosting on the morning of the service. I game with Steam, so yes I update.
16) Message boards : Number crunching : de_separation tasks, Error Computing (Message 60337) Posted 8 Nov 2013 by Michael Yusko Post: http://funnybizblog.com/funny-stuff/pillsbury-doughboy-obituary Anyway.... No I only ever had it try one WU at a time for Seti on the GPU. Out of the few computers I have crunching, I have 1x 4 threads of Seti, 1x 2 threads of seti, 1x 1 thread of seti, 1x 4 threads seti and GPU Primgrid (SP), 1x 2 threads seti and GPU milkyway (DP). (I also have an old K62-400 that runs on WU of Seti every 358 hours.) So with that 'much' computing power dedicated to Seti@home, I don't feel so bad dedicating my GPU to Milkway.... as long as they complete without errors. My one computer is a Dual-CPU Xeon but the mobo only has PCI of assorted flavors and PCI-E x8 on it. Right now it has a Voodoo 3 200PCI in it because it's way better than the RAGE/XL integrated, but I thought about picking up a PCI-E 1x 5450 to slap in there so it can crunch with the GPU. Maybe on Primegrid or something. Since I adjusted: MilkyWay@Home: no I have been seeing a much higher success rate. I just noticed this error in the logs: Thu 07 Nov 2013 06:31:58 PM EST \| Milkyway@Home \| Message from server: Catalyst driver version is not OK for CAL application with this GPU I'm using 13.11 Beta 6 for Linux. About to upgrade to 13.11 beta 8 later today. Thoughts?
17) Message boards : Number crunching : de_separation tasks, Error Computing (Message 60326) Posted 7 Nov 2013 by Michael Yusko Post: Right now it's running .945 CPUs + 1 GPU (@ 95% usage). (That's a CPU clocked at 3.504GHz/core and 820MHz GPU Clock) Seti@Home uses the remaining of Both. (I actually tried running Seti@home on my GPU and it was a waste of time. Only used <20% of my GPU) By the way, You do know what killed the Pilsbury Doughboy right?

19) Message boards : Number crunching : AMD GPU Computation errors (Message 59328) Posted 12 Jul 2013 by Michael Yusko Post: I don't believe I can roll my drivers back that far, however if you make any changes I will continue to try them. I've been crunching on Primegrid with this GPU in the meantime to bring my numbers up there. I have a 5450 in a laptop that crunches away on primegrid since it's about the only project it can handle but it takes 80 hours/WU where this little HD6950 takes 45 minutes/WU.
