Well, I got my GTX 1050 Ti - last Asus 'Expedition' model (designed for 24/7 running) in the shop - and I've just fired it up.

I must say, all your hard work last night paid off - it was an absolute breeze. Installed hardware (tool-free case), installed driver, attached to project (new host) - was assigned two tasks, and both downloaded without a hitch. Even the 139 MB cufft64_80.dll only took 37 seconds:

28/10/2016 18:30:24 | GPUGRID | Started download of _cufft64_80.dll
28/10/2016 18:31:01 | GPUGRID | Finished download of _cufft64_80.dll

OK, it's probably a good idea to attempt that sort of thing after everybody else has switched their machines off for the weekend, but still impressive.

From previous experience with other apps and other projects, simply suspending that single task for a few seconds (using BOINC Manager), and then resuming it again, is often enough to get it running properly.

I know but this time it didn't help. Even restarting BM didn't help. But restart did. No idea why.

Possible small bug-ette to investigate next week: I tried suspending a 'short' (CASP 5ns) task, to let an 'even shorter' (CASP 1ns) task run instead and overtake it in the queue. Although BOINC v7.6.33 issued the 'preempt' instruction, acemd.914-80 just kept on running.

I don't think that's critical, certainly not in the short term.

Still I have problems with downloading cufft64_80.dll ... it takes several attempts and even hours to get it. But I cannot stop that by hand, as it would probably lock me out again for another day by the self defense algorithm. (sigh)

Try going to Activity and turning Network to Suspend, then turn back on after a few seconds.

no way ... I have to wait another 2 hours.

and then you click the 'retry now' button...

Actually, the "suspend/resume" route is for when you happen to notice it while the download is still 'active' - though making no progress. If you've already reached 'backing off', just retry it without the extra work.

Seems to work ... for now. Thanks.

Just got home and checked, seems to be working fine with my 1070 card:
Short runs (2-3 hours on fastest card) v9.14 (cuda80)

Good job!

works great on gtx 1070, 4 min for a short run:

I began crunching after 914 it seems, and haven't had any trouble, except for one small detail, but I believe this is more of a general issue with ANY computing task:

I asked one task to suspend and it was showing as suspended in the BOINC manager, but continued to crunch for perhaps 45-60 seconds.

Are you using the 375.63 or .70 driver? Some other DC projects and games don't like 375.63 at all.

When can we expect a Linux app?

Has anyone received a 20ns task on a Pascal GPU?
I'm asking because even though the 20ns tasks are in the short queue I'm getting only 1ns and 5ns tasks on my GTX 1080.

Linux app to follow next week. /Matt

I'm getting 20ns on the long queue now - I think they were moved.

I get 5ns one on gtx 1070.

They've been in the long queue for about the last 4 days, and a nice thumbs up for that. :-)

Then the server status page / detailed computing status table lists these 20ns units in the wrong queue:
