Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
Doesn't matter to F@H whether or not the 1060 can be linked using SLI, the folding cores do not use that feature. All processing is done on one GPU whether or not SLI (or Crossfire for AMD cards) is present.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
That means you can put gtx 1060 and other GPUs together in one PC.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
And if you look at some review, you'll see that the 1060s have no SLI connectors on the PCB. That doesn't prevent you from running multiple 1060s in a single machine for computing ...
Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
The whole point of SLI (or Crossfire) is to give the gamers better performance than the best that can be achieved with a single GPU. Alternate video frames are rendered on alternate members of a GPU pair.Joe_H wrote:Doesn't matter to F@H whether or not the 1060 can be linked using SLI, the folding cores do not use that feature.

FAH doesn't render video frames since in a game, that happens after the 3D geometry has been computed. Instead, FAH can use multiple cards on separate WUs with no need for interconnecting (except between the GPU and the CPU via the PCIe bus). The rendering components are unused unless you plug in your monitor.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
I checked my 980ti the other day single card i7 920 windows rig with killawatt it was pulling 360 to 370 watts at the wall. I got my second 1070 today so I checked it two 1070s on i7-920 rig one is the gigabyte with 3 fans the other is the asus strix OC both at stock clocks pulling 390 watt I did see it go to 400 even a couple times. 2- 1070s makin about a million ppd..
I will try to get a reading on the dual 1080s one day when I have time I have to do some moving plugs around to check it...

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
GTX 1060 FahBench makes 77 ns/day that matches a gtx 980 OC and should be 350k PPD.

That means the whole pascal gtx 10X0s are recommended for folding if you buy a new card at price levels 250$, 450$, 700$.
But there is no need to replace a card of previous maxwell generation except you need to save watts or maximize your rig.
Second hand maxwell gpus may become a cheap alternative, e.g. gtx 970 price should fall below 200$.

Looks like it will be a rig of Maxwell's and a rig of Pascal's for me

To follow: GTX 1060 Review (hopefully Friday), RX 480 Architecture Writeup/Review, and at some point RX 470 and RX 460 are still due.

Even more FoldingPower at an extraordinary price:

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
We need that gpu with half the memory to pull the costs down. Going out on a limb here but I'd say about 1.2m PPD from the cardSven wrote:Even more FoldingPower at an extraordinary price:

For that expected price 1200$ for titan-x-pascal you can get 2x gtx 1080.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
impossible to say until someone gets their hands on one and posts some numbers, points per dollar is likely to be the pair of 1080's. PPW would probably be the Titan but its all a WAG until AugustAdam A.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
Agree, a consumer-computing focused variant would be nice, but market to small. Plus N would not canabalize the Quadro market.Nathan_P wrote:We need that gpu with half the memory to pull the costs down.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
I don't think the extra 6 GB VRAM make a big amount of price difference.
The other way round if such a 6 GB VRAM Titan X would exist and used for folding then it would be hard to resell it in future to someone who uses it e.g. for gaming, because gamers need lots of VRAM.

Re: Nvidia Pascal GPU cards???
True but if I had just dropped $1000-$1200 on a card its not going to be sold on for a very long time. Also more casual gamers might not need that much powerfoldy wrote:I don't think the extra 6 GB VRAM make a big amount of price difference.
