Project 9208 (0, 13, 50) Bad state errors, over power limit

Posted: Sun Nov 08, 2015 6:56 pm
by CygnusXI
9208 (0, 13, 50) with a stock non oc GTX 780 , I noticed when the work unit fired up it was getting a massive PPD of around 294k PPD ( almost the same as my stock 980 ). I thought "Excellent, core 21 is zooming on my old 780". Not the case when I checked on it this morning. There were some bad state errors that pushed back the progress a bit, I looked at MSI afterburner and noticed that my gpu power % was peaking up to 110%. Being that the card is likely out of warranty I stopped the gpu. I was running on only 1 of 2 gpus, so there was plenty of psu wiggle room. I even tried under clocking the gpu core by over 100 mhz and still was seeing the same over 100% power usage. The stock clock speed on this card was running 1100mhz.

Driver version is 355.82 win 7 pro

Now this looks a lot like the problems described supposedly only affecting maxwell cards in this post viewtopic.php?f=19&t=28226 but this is not a maxwell card. Different wu though also from that post, seemingly identical issue though minus the mention of high power utilization. 110% *should* be safe to run at 24/7, mix that in with the errors though and I felt like it was time to report and drop the WU.

I guess my biggest issue with this is the power utilization being so high, or I would have just let the WU attempt to finish.

Code: Select all

Re: Project 9208 (0, 13, 50) Bad state errors, over power li

Just fired up both gpus, have a core 18 and core 21 running, noticed this in the log. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the problem might have had something to do with this. Seems my core21.exe was outdated. Currently running 9631 (1, 4, 33) and only using 80% power draw, much better than 110%.

Some project require the new core version, that's why you got an update.

If you get p9208 again, let us know how it folds with the update core.

The estimated PPD is based on recent history of that project. It was NOT getting a massive PPD, it was just overestimated. Initial estimates often have very little data on which to base that estimate. After a reasonable amount of progress using that GPU on that Project, the estimate will improve.
I looked at MSI afterburner and noticed that my gpu power % was peaking up to 110%. I guess my biggest issue with this is the power utilization being so high
NVidia is responsible for providing drivers that manage the GPU power. If they're not doing a good job (assuming you didn't modify their settings) complain to NVidia.
There were some bad state errors ....
Bad State issues are much more frequent with non-OverClocked Maxwell than with older GPUs, but they do happen from time to time with older GPUs. When their cause is determined for Maxwell, hopefully that will also reduce or eliminate them for pre=Maxwell GPUs. It should be noted that the cause has not been determined -- but I'll do some (unfounded ?) speculation: Excess power draw MIGHT be a contributing factor. Also, this could be a simple memory error. (Memory parity is only checked in the more expensive commercial-grade GPUs, not the consumer-grade GPUs.) FAH is designed to work within the limitations of consumer-grade hardware. Again. this is all speculation, the facts are not yet known.

It should also be noted that the error message using the term "bad state" is new but FAH has always had an occasional error reported in different ways. Since many of these errors are recoverable by restarting from the previous checkpoint, the code recover whenever possible was developed. If that happens repeatedly in the same WU, the WU may be aborted. (Did yours abort?)
