GTX970 working those projects seems ok.

It's a bit off topic, but it's a quite interesting Maxwell advertisement:

Cool.

However, the folks at the flat earth society are not impressed with Nvidia's effort. :)

While we are waiting for GPUgrid GTX980/970 numbers, F@H performance looks encouraging.

Ok gang,

Looks like we'll need an app update - let's see if I can push one out later today. Who's got the cards, do I need to do Linux or Windows first?


Matt

..or not. The current CUDA release seems not to support that architecture yet.

Have you tried this yet?? [url] https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads-geforce-gtx9xx Driver 343.98 is included offering support for C.C 5.2 cards (GTX980/970) [/url]

Yeah, looked straight through that.

NVidia showing off VX Global illuminati... err illumination power. The Metro series Redux games utilize this tech with Kepler and above generations. (Even X-box/PS4 ports)

GM204 technical advances compared to Kelper is rather striking. Fermi 480/580 compared to 680: GPU-GRID performance jump won't be nearly the GTX980 jump compared to GTX 680. Filtering and sorting performance for images, or to create programs with atoms and DNA/RNA strands- are higher than Kelper. Maxwell also has more internal memory bandwidth, and Third generation Color Compression enhancements offers more ROP performance, with better Cache latency.

A single GM204 CUDA core is 25-40% faster compared to a single CUDA core Gk104, from the added atomic memory enhancements, and more registers for a thread. For Gaming: a GTX 980 is equal to [2]GTX 680.

In every area GP(GPU) performance jump from GK104 to GM204 is significant. GK110 only now offers higher TMU performance, but without new type of filtering offer by GM204, unless Nvidia offers this for the Kelper Generation. GK110 has higher Double precision. A full fat Maxwell (?20nm/16nm FinFET ?/250W/3072~CUDA cores)that offers 1/3 SP/DP core ratio like GK110 is going to be a card for the ages. (Will first be a Tesla, Quadro, Titan variant?) Maybe AMD will come out with board shortly to challenge GM204 with a similar power consumption. Continuous performance competition should raise standards for each company. These next few years are key.

GM204 replaces the GK104 stack, not GK110 [GTX 780](ti)disabled 64DP core SMX stack.(Driver allows 8 be active in SMX) GM204 per nm transistor density is only few percent more than GK104 (3.54B transistors/294mm2) and (7.1B transistors/551mm2) for GK110.

Kepler's GK110 (4500-6000GFLOPS Desktop card are near [Single]20GFOLPS/W, while GK104 (2500-3500GFLOPS) is 15-18GFLOPS/W depending on clock speeds and voltage. Maxwell GM107(1400~FLOPS) is 20-23GFLOPS/W. Maxwell GM204(5000~FLOPS) is 30-35GFLOPS/W, depending on voltage and GDDR5/CORE speeds. GK104 highest rated mobile (GTX880m/2900~FLOPS) card is 27-29GFLOPS/W.

GM204 compute time/ power usage ratios with a new app will be world class compared to more power hungry cards. Crunchers whose States/Countries higher taxes rates for power bills- a GTX970/980 is top notch choice.

Yeah, looked straight through that.

6.5.19 for 343.98 driver. Are 344 drivers the same? Updated Documents for PTX, programming guide, many others are included with 343.98/6.5 CUDA SDK.
Before updating to 6.5.19 driver , I completed GPU-GRID tasks was CUDA 6.5.12

Linux, also has a new CUDA 6.5 driver also for download.

Right. New app version cuda65 for acemdlong. Windows only, needs driver version 344.

I ordered a GTX980 from Newegg. Zotac and gigabyte were my only options so I went with gigabyte. All other manufacturers cards were "out of stock".

Time to replace my trusty GTX 460, which has been GPUGrid-ing for years! At ~£100 the GTX 750Ti fits my budget nicely but I need some guidance.

1. Is the power feed only from the mobo enough for 24/7 or should I go for one with a 6-pin connection?
2. One fan or two?
3. WHICH 750Ti do you recommend?

I installed a pair of 750Ti cards in my computer yesterday and tried to run GPUGRID. No go, instant fail within a couple seconds.

This quote is from January. I hope the problem has been fixed!

The 750tis are great and work just fine.

Good luck with your card biodoc.

In the Netherlands only Asus and MSI, but I will wait for EVGA. They are not out of stock, but just in production. A few weeks more is no problem. Moreover I first want to see some results.

On this webpage is massive summary reviews for 970/980 graphics cards.

But this is my insider tip-)
http://www.zotac.com/products/graphics-cards/geforce-900-series/gtx-980/product/gtx-980/detail/geforce-gtx-980-amp-extreme-edition/sort/starttime/order/DESC/amount/10/section/specifications.html

Does anybody already have a working GTX 980 or 970?

ext2097, would you mind giving GPU-Grid another try?

And regarding those Einstein@Home results: did you run 1 WUs at a time, which is the default setting?

Scanning for our furry friends since Jan 2002

I had a CUDA6.5 task on one of my GTX680s, but it's failed after 6 sec with the following error:

# The simulation has become unstable. Terminating to avoid lock-up (1)

40x35-NOELIA_5bisrun2-2-4-RND5486_0
Does anybody had a successful CUDA6.5 task on any older card?

And there's another failed CUDA6.5 task on my GTX780Ti:
I4R6-SDOERR_BARNA5-32-100-RND1539_0
It has failed after 2 sec.

# Simulation unstable. Flag 11 value 1
# The simulation has become unstable. Terminating to avoid lock-up
# The simulation has become unstable. Terminating to avoid lock-up (2)
