No visualisation for GPU folding?

[folding_user123]

Hi there - I recently installed the standard windows client and my machine has been happily folding away on both the CPU and GPU slots.

I used to run the PS3 client and enjoyed the visualisation that came with it - however I notice that visualisation only seems to be available for the CPU slot and not the GPU slot - when I try to visualise the GPU folding I get the visualisation window but no graphics. Is it not able to work on the GPU slot?

I have posted screenshots here:

GPU: GTX980
OS: Windows 10 Pro
CPU: i7-2600k

Thanks

If you wait for a while, does it change from Loading to displaying something ? Or does it revert to displaying the CPU slot ?

As I recall, the viewer has had issues reported on displaying WU's using the newer GPU cores.

if i recall correctly no tdr files are produced for gpus hence no visualizations. i think proteneer mentioned something about this once but its been awhile i could be mistaken.

No viewer support yet for GPU cores newer than Core_16.

It displays and updates everything in the viewer minus any visualisation, as in the screenshots posted

How do you know it's Core_16? Where is this information displayed?

Thanks for your responses.

This information is displayed in the log, when the WU is started. You can also check in your Task Manger which FahCore process is running.

I've just manually opened positions.xtc & viewerFrame##.json in my FAH work\Slot ID dir with FAHViewer and saw something. But I don't think it attached to current folding simulation process 'cause viewer not connecting to my localhost client in this mode. And I don't wait for vis feature further fixed for v7 clients
