Thanks!

Is a 6990 a good GPU crunching machine? or buy more recent? Its got 3072 Stream Processors but only @ 880MHz Engine Clock 5.40 TFLOPs Single Precision compute power o 1.37 TFLOPs Double Precision Compute Power And it is ONLY Open CL 1.1 ??? Thanks for your Knowledge and time The other Bruce dropping...

On Nvidia what is being used? CUDA, Open CL, or Open GL?

And is AMD Open CL only?

I have 64-bit. I'm not sure on driver and it's a 660 Ti.

Extra Slot Option Name Value

I'm now attempting this on Ubuntu. Do you still need Name Value for ?6800? units.
And what is the Name, Value? I forgot?

Okay, also my bad, card was o/c to 1200 in Catalyst Control Center, it's now at 950, power supply is digital switching 1200 watt. Temp is 59c. So these last 2 weren't problems.

What else do I need to send? if anything? *********************** Log Started 2013-07-19T20:25:49Z *********************** 20:25:49:************************* Folding@home Client ************************* 20:25:49: Website: http://folding.stanford.edu/ 20:25:49: Copyright: (c) 2009-2013 Stanford Univ...

This computer seems to be working fine after all the advice on 8900 projects.

I'm new at this also but either in Web Control or advanced you have to set the power bar to "Full" to get the GPU to work. Also I would suggest (from my experience) that you free up one core for AMD GPU's and depending on the Nvidia card 1 or 2. Let testing be your guide. Also stop the pro...

I have a work unit that is not uploading. I have looked in the wu file in the ProgramData and found this. This is on a HD 7950 The wu it is processing now has no errors. The card is not o/c. I did shut down the computer for some maintenance though now that I think about it. *********************** L...

I wrote comments to each suggestion and the forum ate the work. <sigh>

Right now I have one 8900 that is running in Slot 1 at 7.5%. I went and did a days worth of SETI for an upcoming race in a month and now am back doing FAH. I was running on 1 660 Ti because of heat and now installed a window air conditioner and started up the other card again. The fails started as b...

I know that some projects the manipulation cannot be converted over to GPU and it's beyond me at this point in time. But Help Conquer Cancer was a 6 year project with a lot of mechanical groundwork done by high speed robotic automation creating 300 million samples that were then put through x-ray. I...

AVX1 has been in use other DC projects and as I recall the gain was 20 percent. From 128 bit register to 256 bit register was one big change at the time and the ability to to do the math equation c=a+b saving both registers instead of a=a+b. Test info in some real world tasks. http://www.sisoftware....

For people reading this the web link has to include the www for http://www.gromacs.org or it doesn't work. http://www.gromacs.org I believe AVX origionally released in Q1 2011 and then Q3 2011 AMD was a 20% boost. But development of GPU sorta places cpu on a back burner of code development since it ...
