Folding Forum

I guess it's a founders edition ?

Your loads are very similar to those I'm seeing on Windows with a 980 Ti ... I guess WDDM is holding performance back and that is really pissing me off more and more as time goes by

About 120k more PPD than my 980Ti at 1423mhz across the board for those WUs except for p9704 where I average 755k PPD. That is on the higher end of the PPD for the 980Ti. I think if the 980Ti could get to 1873mhz it would be much, much closer to the 1080.

An additional item that may be holding performance back might be drivers. Since the card has just been released, nVidia may not yet have optimized the drivers for GPGPU and use of OpenCL on the Pascal architecture yet.

True. I am also on Linux 346.96 so there is another traditionally 10-15% improvement that I have.

Still plenty of optimizing to happen I expect, at least it actually folds out of the box, and folds really well by the look, despite not the massive increase on the previous cards hoped for by some, this may yet happen.
On windows my GTX 980ti hybrid for example not getting anywhere near what Linux is getting so perhaps a better comparison.
The 9704 I get around 650k as opposed to the listed 720k, but that is the closest, all the other numbers are up to 200kppd faster.

I will say thats is good. 250w vs 180w

Another batch of WUs done.

175MHz overclock

Thank you for the Numbers.

Now with Overclocking it get's interesting.

Max at 1 Million PPD, that has to be considered.

Linux would probably closer to the million than Windows

How is your GPU utilization with these WUs? Upper 90s with core21 hopefully?

Thank you Torin3 for your reports ; much appreciated.

Yes indeed, those results have been eagerly awaited.

Now the next question I have for those testing things out is; do Pascal's and Maxwells work well together on the same board?

I wouldn't worry as long you can use the same driver; enough physical space and air to breath and juice from the PSU.
Mixing AMD and nV is a different topic ...

I thought GPUs had to be identical to be "strapped" together on the same motherboard. Am I wrong?

That was the case when I first started GPU folding in 2009, but for the last generations I have run Fermi and Maxwell at the same time without issues (780ti and 980ti).
I am waiting for the Hybrid version to be released, "coming soon" the manufacturers website says..

Mine should be here in a couple hours. I'll see if I can hit the fabled 2GHz mark and see what the PPD is.
