1) Message boards : News : Project restarted (Message 56466) Posted 12 Feb 2021 by Clive Post: Toni: I have removed my laptop from crunching for GPUGRID. The laptop has a GTX 660M GPU which is inadequate for these large files. In my desktop there is a GTX 1060 which seems to have enough muscle to crunch these large files. I hope all this crunching will benefit humanity in some way. Clive
2) Message boards : News : Server disk full being addressed (Message 54543) Posted 3 May 2020 by Clive Post: Hi: On my PC I am limited to 2 GPU WUs. Can this be increased so that there are extra WUs for times like this? Clive Hunt

4) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : GPU running at half efficiency (Message 54440) Posted 25 Apr 2020 by Clive Post: Hi Keith: Thank you for your reply. Yes, I am using Task manager to view the performance of my Geforce 1070 VC. Thanks to you I learned something new today! I was using Google to figure out how to change the view to CUDA but with no success there. So finally I right clicked on the efficiency window and I saw the CUDA option and BINGO! MY video card is running at 98% efficiency. Well this proves you can teach an old dog new tricks! Now I do the same to my laptop. Thanks Keith! Clive Hunt B.C. Canada
5) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : GPU running at half efficiency (Message 54435) Posted 25 Apr 2020 by Clive Post: Hi: I discovered today that my Geoforce GTX 1070 GPU is running at 50% efficiency. Is it possible to increase the efficiency and therefore shorten the completion time on the GPU GRID workunits? Clive Hunt British Columbia, Canada

7) Message boards : News : New workunits (Message 53616) Posted 6 Feb 2020 by Clive Post: If you are looking for GPU WUs, head over to Folding@Home. I am there right now and there is plenty of GPU WUs to keep your GPU busy 24/7. I also work on the occasional WUs that I get from GPUGRID.NET. COME ON OVER! Clive British Columbia, Canada Their software is too buggy to waste my time. This is true. I had to reinstall the software after it stopped working several time. F@H should come over to BOINC. Hi With reference to the gentleman claiming that F@H is too buggy, I have never had to reinstall the Folding@Home s/w. I have two Alienware PCs running fully patched Windows 10 running F@H s/w with no issues. Clive

9) Message boards : News : New workunits (Message 53518) Posted 28 Jan 2020 by Clive Post: So much for opening the floodgates of GPU WUs to my disappointment I only received 4 workunits. I do not know whether GPUGRID.NET is a victim of its own success, I thought I could use my fast GPU to advance medical research while I am doing my emails and other other tasks. I am moving on Folding@Home. I trust I will be able to advance in finding a cure for Alzheimer Disease, a disease that killed my loving mom. Clive
10) Message boards : News : New workunits (Message 53487) Posted 26 Jan 2020 by Clive Post: Hi: Good to see that the GPU WUs flood gate have opened up. My GPU has finished the WUs that arrived this morning. Can I have more GPU WUs? Clive

12) Message boards : Wish list : CPU project thoughts (Message 53298) Posted 7 Dec 2019 by Clive Post: Hi: I have an Alienware desktop with an i7-8700K CPU and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 video card. I am getting plenty of workunits to keep my CPU busy but 2 workunits for my video card is not enough. I would like more. Would it be possible to add an option for user defined quantity of workunits for the GPU to work on. The other option would be to increase the default daily allowance of GPU workunits.

I checked and the GPU work unit still has not been uploaded. I have checked that the deadline date is today at 10 pm. Anybody got any suggestions? Clive

I hope there is a I.T. staff member that works on Sunday that can deal with this issue, Clive
17) Message boards : Number crunching : failing tasks lately (Message 52928) Posted 4 Nov 2019 by Clive Post: Hi: I see this is a well used section of the forum. I would like to contribute some useful results here with my Alienware laptop but I have a high failure rate which I would like to resolve here. The GPU in my laptop is a Geoforce 660M. The OS I am using is uptodate Windows 10. I would appreciate it if a tech person could narrow down the reason or reasons why I am experiencing such a high failure rate. Clive Hunt Canada

20) Message boards : Server and website : Promoting GPUGRID.NET (Message 52690) Posted 21 Sep 2019 by Clive Post: Hi: Any thought given to promoting this website to gamers and their high powered GPUs in their PCs? Rather than using just their PCs to play games, their CPUs and GPUs could be put to use that would benefit humanity as a whole. Any thought given to promoting GPUGRID.NET to the online gaming community? Clive
