to me, it could just be the wu is a short one, or it's running faster with 2.3.....

3(rt) minutes = .5 %

Task 1134614 arrived safely with a cuda23 designation - including the 8MB cufft download!

I've bumped it to run immediately, but still estimating 18 hrs on the 9800GTX+. BOINC v6.6.37, nothing else needed (except the drivers) to get it to download.

I am the user of this day!
I will try on one gpu with errors:
20.8.2009 20:52:08 CUDA device: GeForce GTX 260 (driver version 19038, compute capability 1.3, 896MB, est. 96GFLOPS)

est. 96GFLOPS ????

that card must have stock core value..

my card is est. 106 gflops with 216 core.

Yep, that is a stock core value..
It is Now as it arrived from production line from china!
Testing,and edit: I have many friends from china it is not a country fault.

Hello from Turku > Åbo.

2.3 Running good on XP64 with 2 EVGA 260s, previous version ran good as well.

I've noticed that running this new app, my gpu is running about 1-2 C cooler.

61 C.

Spoke too soon, having some compute errors..

2.3 Running good on XP64 with 2 EVGA 260s, previous version ran good as well.

Got one for test. 11 minutes - still normal flight.

Confirming that GPU core is working on appr. 4°С higher temperature. After manual setting of GPU cooler rotation (70% of max.) it fell down from 80°С to 72°С (overclocked GTX260 from Gigabyte).

Mark Henderson, your case seem to be due to overclocking.
It's not the error FFT or PME related.

Bymark,
which result did error out for you?

gdf

Knowing from the news line, that from today only 6.6.36 BOIC mngr will able to run GPUGRID with 190.38 cuda 2,3 dirvers, yesterday was make a several attepts to update the system to the new, recommended level. Also decide to install additional GTX 260 card (2 are almost running weil).
So, system: Q9550 \ ASUS WS Evolution MoBo, Windows server 2008 SP2, 2 x ASUS GTX 260. BOIC version 6.5.0 (previosly recommended on GPUGRID site), drivers version 185.25.
Install BOIC 6.6.36. Reboot. BOINC shows just one GPU. OK, put typical cc_config enabling use of all gpu's. Reboot. BOINC shows two GPU's. No one is running. Previous jobs (from the cache) stays untouched with the "Waiting to run" message. BOIC is regularily asking MW server for WU's for GPU (???). Yes, I'm running non ATI CAL (gpu) version on the rest Q9550 cores, all works fine. But was no any wish to replace MW job to my GPUGRID gpu's.
Hmm.
Decided to install 3-rd GTX 260, drop it into the system, boot, install 185.25 drivers again, checking:
Windows ( in the device manager) showing 3 x GTX 260.OK. Launching nTune, as well, as GPU-Z. Both are reporting about 3 x GTX 260. OK. GPU frequencies, as well, as memory timings are adjustable on all 3 GTX 260. Seems, normal working behaviour.
Launching BOIC. BOIC is reporting about just two of GTX 260 cards & both are not reguesting any WU, just sitting in the sockets. Only rooling back to old BOIC 6.5.0 in combination with 185.25 drivers return system to normal behaviour ( two GPU's are working). No chance to push third GTX 260 to work.
Haven't any idea, how to screw 6.6.36 with 190.38 cuda 2,3 drivers into the system.
Having serious need for you support \ advices, any direct recommendations \ ideas, what could caused this behaviour ? What should I change in system ?

Much appreciated,

Jet

HI Jet,
I am sure that people will be able to help. However, the fact that suggested client changed did not mean that you could not crunch with the old one. Just you might miss out on some new features.
What client did you have before?
Do you know how to install the drivers?

gdf

First one finished and reported, and the new app seems to be slightly slower than previously.

If you look at the full task list for the host, you can see it's got seven GIANNI_BIND tasks currently showing. The latest cuda23 task is the only one showing more than 50,000 seconds elapsed: five others were in the 49,000 range, and one in the 48,000 range. So not a big difference, but (with a sample point of one!) a move in the wrong direction.

I believe you are correct, I set to stock speeds and it is running good now.

Dear GDF,

My current client is 6.5.0, with previous driver version 185.25.
I know., how to install drivers. Does your question means, that you will recommend to make complete drivers uninstall & make a "clera" install again ?
Basically I've two key targets:
1. To install 3-rd GTX 260 & make it running with GPUGRID.
2. To make it works ( both 3 GTX 260) under newest versions of BOINC \ CUDA drivers.

Any suggestions are highly appreciated !
Thanks in advance,

Jet
