Edit: newest edition to my crunching Hardware. He runs nice a cool and that is 45 secs into the wu. Completes wu's in around 2 mins to 2 mins 20 secs.

That's the HD7850 from Norton, right? If it'll do a WU in two minutes...damn, that's a good 50% higher PPD than my GTX470s do. Great card!

Aren't the GPU WUs amazing?
And congratulations on now being a married man

My output will be down a bit today, I'm going somewhere and taking my laptop, so it'll be on battery and not crunching for ~3 ish hours

ALMOSTunseen · Oct 20, 2012, 11:37 AM

Booted up BOINC fine the first time, started crunching, everything fine and dandy. Then I restarted BOINC to update my project preferences. Next time I boot BOINC, it gets this error when synchronising.

Have you don a service install or a non-service install? Have you tried to restart Windows? I'm not really familiar with that issue, but I'll try to help you nonetheless

I installed 64 bit version via the installer. I will try restarting now.

Ahh, BOINC doesn't work right until you restart Windows first

Yep, restart worked like a charm.
Weird, when I installed the 32 bit version, it asked for a restart, but the 64 bit didn't.

64bit is about 10% faster, so definitely use that

Also, I don't know if you did a Service Install or not (that's an option to check in the installer), but if you did not you can also crunch on your GPU, which is phenomenally fast. Like while the CPU can get ~6k PPD, the GPU can get close to three times that. It does, however, make the computer laggy, so I'd only set it to run on the GPU while the computer is not in use (at least on the main system--set it to crunch all the time on the dedicated WCG system).

Welcome to the team, it's great to have you!

ALMOSTunseen · Oct 20, 2012, 11:48 AM

May I also ask, what are the details on the little badges in your signature? What PPD or points do the star signiffy? Yes, I am considering using the GPU while not gaming.

BUCK NASTY · Oct 20, 2012, 12:05 PM

Added the good ol' GTX275 to the i7-870 rig. Seem to be finishing GPU WU's in about 5 mins. Should help a little...

You can go that from you User Cp's Edit Options button then scroll below to 'Miscellaneous Options' then enter your WCG user name there.

That signifies someone who runs WCG for TechPowerUp. In order to get a badge, you need to have crunched 100,000 points (as reported by BOINC Manager) or 700,000 as reported by the WCG Website.

Here are the requirements for the stars:
badge + 1 star - 500
badge + 2 stars - 2,000
badge + 3 stars - 4,500
badge + 4 stars - 8,000
badge + 5 stars - 12,000 or greater

So your GTX275 is actually crunching faster than my GTX460s, despite having fewer shaders....

Yeah it's a 7850 and it is averaging around 2.2 secs wu. which is twice as fast as my 6850's. And thats with the slowest phenom in my farm. I am going to put the 970 into that rig and see if the times improve.

stinger608 · Oct 20, 2012, 01:20 PM

Hmmm, yea it really seems like the AMD video cards crunch the GPU WU's much faster than the Nvidia cards.

Hey Mad Shot, if your going to sell that 6850 I would probably grab that puppy from ya for some 6850 CrossfireX. :-)

I think we are measuring from different points. I go by "GPU usage" elapsed time. See below:

GTX460 768mb 860/1720/1840
GPU usage starts @ :24
GPU Usage stops @ 5:03
Boinc manager elapsed time @ 5:42

GTX275 896mb 648/1458/1188
GPU usage starts @ :24
GPU usage stops @ 5:06
Boinc manager elapsed time @ 6:06

I don't know if it has something to do with the architecture of the GPU's, but I'm satisfied with the 275's performance in WCG.

If you can't locate a 6850 then the next best bet looks like a 7770 for some cost effective/power efficient gpu crunching action

I may even consider selling off my 6870 Hawk to finance one or two of them

stinger608 · Oct 20, 2012, 03:48 PM

Installed the single HD6850 a few minutes ago. When running the GPU work units, it doesn't slow the system down near as much as it did with the GTX560!!!

stinger608 · Oct 20, 2012, 04:12 PM

Don't mean to double post..........But damn!!!!! This HD6850 is finishing GPU units in about 2 frigging minutes!!!!!!!!! That is awesome.

Radical_Edward · Oct 20, 2012, 05:08 PM

GPU crunching freaking rocks. My 5850 is just pumping out work.

I have a 6850 crossfirex setup myself

I am holding onto them for right now as they are in my main rig which I also use for gaming. Xfired 6850's have a tad more punch to them compaired to a single 7850.

Also pm sent on what we where talking about .

KieX · Oct 20, 2012, 07:29 PM

Had a little luck today and got a refund for something I got off eBay. Was a very long time to process so I'd almost given up hope on seeing that money back. So thought I'd go complete my computer with a 3rd and last HD7770.

11 days till my FM2 board

cant wait for Dec to get the CPU. In the meantime what kind of PSU would be recommended for a 5800K and eventually a 6870 with 8GB 1866 ram and 1 SSD +1HDD and again, eventually a Blu Ray drive?

Was a very long time to process so I'd almost given up hope on seeing that money back. So thought I'd go complete my computer with a 3rd and last HD7770. __________________
