If I recall you said this two years ago as well!
I really hope they haven't been sitting on "features" for 2 years.

No failed core 21 WUs on my 970.
Stock, as in Nvidia specifications as noted earlier.. Plus, the memory is underclocked, as mentioned earlier. The work units still fail, so I guess that also explains a little.
Hardware configuration: Intel i7-4770K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR3-2133 Corsair Vengence (black/red), EVGA GTX 760 @ 1200 MHz, on an Asus Maximus VI Hero MB (black/red), in a blacked out Antec P280 Tower, with a Xigmatek Night Hawk (black) HSF, Seasonic 760w Platinum (black case, sleeves, wires), 4 SilenX 120mm Case fans with silicon fan gaskets and silicon mounts (all black), a 512GB Samsung SSD (black), and a 2TB Black Western Digital HD (silver/black).

If that is true, it explains a lot.
Sitting? OHN. Re-writing the servers' coding to improve WU handling, hardware matching, handle more Assignment and Work Servers, new FAHCores, and add new features already in the client. Yep.
Stop testing until there's a new version of Core_21 that closes a number of open issues.
When you DECIDE you want Core_21 assignments, add "advanced" As I understand it, all Core_21 projects are now Adv (or even further removed from general circulation). If one slips through, whether it fails or not, let us know what project it is.
Work unit count and ppd both are meaningless if half the projects are failing. The point is focusing just on completed units is kind of pointless due to the size difference in projects.
Has anyone with an nVidia GPU that fails units frequently run memtestCL or memtestG80 for hours? It would be interesting to see if it detects any memory issues.

Brief read through tells me that's not available for 64bit Windows. That correct?
Windows 64-bit can run 32-bit programs. The only real question is whether either or both do a good job of stressing the VRAM and reporting errors.
You'll find both an older version and a newer version, and even the newer one was written before Maxwell was developed so report your findings (in a new topic, please).

Bcavnaugh is showing that the VRAM has been lowered from stock 7000mhz to 6000mhz and lower.. Well lower than stock speeds and even lower than last generation speeds.
Be careful : most Maxwell2 GPUs run in P2 mode when running FAH, but most overclocking tool (MSI Afterburner, ...) changes only the P0 mode clocks.
You need to use NV Inspector to check which mode is used while running FAH (on my 980M, it's P0, but it's P2 on my 980). Then, you have to change the memory clocks in the right mode.
Some other weird things might occur : on my 980, I have to change memory clocks for P2 tab, but GPU clicks in P0 tab.

I will start the Third Round only on the GTX 980 HC Rig as it is the only one receiving Core 21 Projects that are failing.
Should be sometime late afternoon. I will Drop the Memory down 2000 MHz and start back up.
I am still getting Core 21 UNKNOWN_ENUM P9704 Projects without the Client Type Set.
