I know I went overkill on my 980, but 970s are an excellent value and better than a freshly marked down 290. I would have gotten a 970 had I not wanted the best performance I could get out of a single chip GPU, and I also wanted something that would take high load for a long time without issues. I'm still tuning my 980, but I may stick with 1405MHz core/1.125V as I just tested 1520/1.212v (the NVIDIA hardware voltage limit) and the computer locked up overnight. 1405/1.125V definitely sounds much better than 1480/1.212V and the power is decreased by like 30W between the two.
 
You'se guy's have peaked my curiosity with all this 970/980 talk. I currently have a 970 in my shopping cart and I'm ready to pull the trigger. What ratio of good:bad work units are you seeing?

Around 50:50. One good thing is that you can sit just next it.
 
Opty 6180 server is up and running @ 700K ppd. Should start dumping work around 11am tomorrow. Should have the other server up by tomorrow night. Got 8K points for the day(yeay HD7770!)

700k PPD from the one Opty system???
 
No passkey?
Sure thing and to add to the insecurity to investigate if key was correct read and if you just lost your QRB for being lazy Stanford "decide" (again) to -
1 : more or less stop internet traffic to their homepage
2: slow down the uploads
3: killing the updates

Edit: Buck did get bonus of the important Opty WU - 404014 points

Yes, from the stronger of the 2 servers(Opty 6180SE). P8105 work unit with a TPF of a little over 8 mins per frame. Was hovering from 700-720K PPD. The Opty 6176 will do about 650K on the same work unit.

It was a P9012 on the HD7770. I don't think i finished it within QRB criteria. I was just trying out the card to see what it would do.

Did you mean P9201? My HD7770 is working on one right now and getting over 41K PPD. Gets better than 30K on P13000.
 
Nvidia cards not getting work. Anyone else seeing this?

Says bad work units

Nope. P9012(I get special work units:p). It was a P9201, but no overclock on the card and I started it late after the download. I have a P13000 now and I'm getting much better PPD.
 
What clocks are you running the 7770 at? Haven't touched an AMD card in years.LOL
 
It's the MSI HD7770 that I won from WCG. I'm just running it at 1100. Simple, easy, didn't bump temps.

The last I got was from 140.163.4.235, so a core 18. That is 6 hours ago and it will take an other 13 hours to finish. Fah has been a bit different (in the bad sense) today so I'm not surprised.
 
yes was trying to download 0x18 and 0x17. Its finally doing an0 x15. Better than nothing. BTW good to have you back Captain.
 
I've been testing my GTX 980's overclock this last week. It seems to be unstable beyond 1480MHz at the maximum NVIDIA unmodded BIOS allowed voltage of 1.212V, but seems to be running fine at 1468MHz/1.187V for the last 10 hours. The memory overclocks super well on this board though, I'm running 2000MHz just fine and think it can do up to 2050MHz (8200MHz) without issue, though 2075 crashes right away. I could probably flash an unlocked BIOS on it, but what's the point if I could lower the voltage this much at my max OC? It does bench at 1520MHz fine, but that's pointless to me as it is technically unstable.

EDIT: Wall wattage is 382W on a 9201 (345k EPPD) so about 122W for the card.

Server #2 is up and running F@H @ 648K PPD with a p8103 WU. 1st dump to arrive at 8:30am.

Looks like Tomshardware wont be sneaking up on us now :toast::toast:

Nice ppd there buck. :O
I had a 7770 about a year back, when 13000's were first rolling out. Clocked to 1300Mhz I was seeing about 55kppd on good work units, ~40k on normal ones. At stock I was seeing more like 30k and 40k.
 
The guy has offered it to me for $50. I have some Asus 9600GSO's that I'm wondering if I could take the cooler off of one of them and slap it on this card. 9600GSO is a 105 watt GPU according Nvidia.
I don't like that there's no warranty at all.
For $50 I would definitely take that chance.

I upped the core on the HD7770 to 1154mhz and it's pulling 30K+ ppd on a P13000. Runs at a cool 48C with 50% fans. Is 1300mhz to be achievable stable clock?
