With 1GHz core, 3WU take just over 4min and 4WU take almost 6 min. Roughly 31K or so. That's with 2.2GHz CPU speed, I suspect people with faster CPU might shave off on those times.

OK, so here's a little surprise: I picked one up

I dropped it in the 3570K rig and set it to 4 WU's, and they are cranking out (at least for now) at about 5 minutes, which means 1.25 minutes each. I was hoping to drop the GTX 280 in the P4 rig I was going to build, but the P4 mobo seems like it's dead.

Hey T, would you consider running more WUs on your 7970s?

Possibly. I feel like there is a little more room left on them. However, today I already pulled over 250K before that card was swapped out in the 3570K rig.

I had never ran out of thanks until I joined this team. I think that tells you something about this team! :rockout:

Well, going from 4 to 6 WU's, my gpu and cpu usage is up, so I think I'm at my limit lol. You're going to rocket into space with your systems!!!

Guess whos back!!

I must be the lucky one with windows 8. I got both 6950's running 4 WU a piece at full load. They just started so hopefully they drop down to around 3 minutes

I'd say you are the lucky one, because I tried forever and got nothing but driver crashes! After putting in my app_info and starting BOINC, I would crash as soon as the first bit of work started. And I tried 2 or 3 different drivers too.

So what's your secret, as I would love to get back on 8?!

Nice, shaving almost a minute off my times, that thing should be rocking :rockout:

Sweet job. What versions of BOINC/Catalyst are you using to have that work?

I might be because of the 6000 series cards. I think the people that were having trouble had 7000 series cards, but I could be wrong.

Not wrong with me, crashed with 7970s on 12.11beta and 12.10

[Ion] · Nov 7, 2012

We have lift-off! :toast:

Should this work, it'll be ~35k PPD from this rig :toast:

[Ion] said:
If you do go for it, the performance boost can be pretty sizable. But there is also definitely the risk of messing something up

Wow--that's incredible! Fully passive providing probably 400w+ of power

The TX750 IMO was one of Corsair's worst PSUs--it wasn't as efficient as the other TX or HX ones and the voltages weren't as tight

Glad to see that you've thrown the GTX470 on WCG--those are about the times that I'm getting

Yeah I've gone through hell with this rig, as it is I can't overclock it. Rather now mess with it.

[Ion] · Nov 7, 2012

I had a couple hours of downtime on the i7-860, but it's back up and crunching now :toast:

That's good to hear. And how is that 7770 treating you, pretty good I presume?

manofthem said:

Yup! I've already pulled 15k from that rig today, and we still have one Free-DC update to go. And last night it wasn't crunching consistently for a few hours while I was messing with BOINC. I figure I should get 23-24k PPD from it--perhaps I'll have to get a 2nd and bump that up to ~42-43k

Sweet! Sounds like some good pie for you pretty soon!

One of my rigs just got some strange Betas

What could it be? Has anyone heard anything?

t_ski · Nov 8, 2012

Looks like something specific to the 7.05 client I'm assuming you're running.

All WCG BETAs are announced

EDIT: Doesn't seem to work with my app_info:

08/11/2012 22:24:02 | World Community Grid | [error] No app version found for app beta3 platform windows_intelx86 ver 705 class ati_hcc1; discarding BETA_X0900072831357200607201015_0

Going to see if I can find the code.. BETA's are probably the most scarce and elusive of all WU.

I would have to look at the WCG forum first. Thanks KieX :toast:

EDIT:
These Betas seem to be two different species - for CPU only and for GPU.

Daimus said:

BETA's are quite rare, so I setup the announcement page to email me each time there's a new thread on there (read only, only WCG techs can post there).

Sucks though, this is going to be one batch of BETA I can't participate in.

Daimus · Nov 8, 2012

Fellows crunchers, these BETAs give 126 points for each task!!

dude12564 · Nov 8, 2012

Interesting - the page doesn't load. I have my account signed up for betas though.

I've stopped getting GPU WU for HCC, anyone else same thing? Did TPU go through them that quickly already!
