when will tasks be available for download again?

Of course not! They just installed new hardware and they don't want to get it scratched and dirty!!

;-)

I've been taskless for about 4 days now. I purchased a Nvidia GTX 1055 (crippled GTX 1060 w/ 3GB) that replaced my blazing fast 48 cuda core Nvidia GT 520. Itching to get crunching on GPUGRID using the new gear.

Yeah, the server still says there are no new tasks available & over 2K in progress...

Perhaps they should have called it a GTX1055 or stuck with the GTX1060 and called the GTX1060-6GB a GTX1065 (AKA 465), but they called it a GTX1060-3GB, and they get to name their babies! Also, AMD had a Phenom II 1055T 6-core CPU, released ~6years ago, and NV have a GTX 1050Ti. My guess is NV didn't want to call one a GTX1060 and the other a GTX1060Ti because they have the 1060Ti earmarked for their 14nm mid-high end refresh next year, along with the inevitable GTX1080Ti... Maybe we will also see a suffix or something subtle indicating node refinement/GDDR RAM variations for the entry level variants too. NV do like to express themselves through nomenclature.

unable to fill my gpus with new work. Pre-server change used to be much better...

Yep. Same... heating my place with my GPU and when it getting cold...i know something is wrong... searching for prime number in hope to survive :D

I have a couple 1060 3GB cards and posted the times for the ADRIA_2OV5_AMBER_OPEN2 WUs over here (also the 1050Ti):

https://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=4448

Maybe someone with a 1060 6GB could post a comparison time (also 1050, 1070 and 1080)?

FWIW the Phenom II X6 models were: 1035T, 1045T, 1055T, 1075T, 1090T and 1100T.

I'm keeping the 1060 occupied on milkyway@home for the time being. With 5 concurrent tasks it averages 3 minutes a piece. Mechanical hard drive thrashed and thrashed with 10+ tasks but I got her up to 19 tasks before the system became totally unresponsive. I imagine the workstation simply ran out of RAM leaving it up to the pagefile.sys and readyboost which could't juggle/sort out all the data. The GTX1060-3GB never maxed out its memory during the entire ordeal and in fact it was twiddling its thumbs and sat near idle at times (after completing a task before starting another) waiting for workstation to get over itself.

Quite impressed with the GTX1060-3GB! With 100% utilization running 5 MW@H tasks it runs cool (currently a cozy 102f/39c with fan speed at 90%, sips power, and is easy on the wallet. - - Still would love to witness a 1080 in action though!

39C is a little unnecessary, I think you could lower the fan speed and keep the gpu at 50C and it would last just as long as 40C. As long as you're not over 70C it's going to last a long time.

-Off Topic-
70C is roughly where systems remain stable. If the GPU is 70C usually everyting else is less and probably not going to fail. However, everything else in the system is unlikely to be certified and guaranteed to operate at 70C. Many components deteriorate noticeably at or just above 50C, including GPU components. That's why we have system, CPU and GPU fans. Just about the last thing that's going to fail is a wafer of silicon (CPU or GPU) - basically it's purified carved rock. The stone age isn't over!

10-4, Will do (50C)Great info.

I throttled down the fan and observed the following (as a mini-experiment):

@ 51C/124F the GTX 1060 throttled itself down from 1936MHz to 1923 (-13MHz),
@ 61C/142F lowered to 1911 (-12MHz),
@ 67C/153F lowered to 1898 (-13MHz),
@ 71C/160F lowered to 1885 (-13MHz).

At 71C I put the fan back up to full speed until it cooled it down to 50C.

@ 50C/122F fan speed is 40%/1040rpm and the gpu is running its original 1936MHz. So you helped me save 50%/1300rpm in fan usage.

Thanks again for the info!

Salve agli esperti,
non riesco a scaricare unità da elaborare... può essere che il mio account è bloccato?
L'ultima unità che ho visto risale ad un paio di anni fa.
Da allora niente. Tutti gli altri progetti lavorano tranquillamente. Solo GPUGRID no mi da niente.
Chi mi aiuta a capire cosa è successo?
Grazie

Do not install BOINC as a service (protected mode).
You need at least 8GB free space on the drive BOINC is installed.
If it does not help, please restart your BOINC manager, and post the first ~40 lines from the event log of your BOINC manager.

Non installare BOINC come servizio (modalità protetta).
Hai bisogno di almeno 8 GB di spazio libero sul disco è installato BOINC.
Se non risolve il problema, riavviare il gestore di BOINC, e dopo i primi ~40 righe dal registro eventi del vostro gestore di BOINC.

Thanks Zoltan for the reply ...
I have a question: Where i put "the first ~40 lines from the event log of your BOINC manager" ???

Thanks

You've restricted in your profile (in GPUGrid settings) that you crunch only BETA (test) applications, and there's no such work at the moment.
You should select long runs and short runs to receive work.

Yessssss!!! It's Works!!!!!
Thank you Zoltan.
Were 2 years that I thought GPUGRID no wanted to give me new works ... ;)
Now I wake up from the long lethargy my gtx 580 :)

Bye!
