Guys,

I am seeing this on my both folding rigs. I dont know why Fahmon is not reporting the WU and PPD info. And also my daily avg. has been goin down. But both my rigs are folding and precision shows all the GPUs are stressed as their temps are high.

Have any of u guys seen anything like this?? Should I delete the WU folder and start over again?

I saw the same thing on one of my boxes today. I deleted the files and it made no difference. El Fiendo stated in another post that there are some new WU's being sent out. It looks like FAHmon doesn't know about them.

EDIT: here's the info straight from the Fiendish one's fingers.

Tonight we also see a slew of GPU work units were released that are playing havoc with monitoring programs and the like everywhere. They're worth 548 points and are supposedly similar in PPD to 511s, but a little better. I've yet to witness their output myself as I can't get any of my monitoring programs to properly read them, but they take my GTX260s about 2 hours to do, so that's roughly 6500 PPD for one card on these. I have yet to see if these are a limited run or if they'll be making it into regular circulation. Hopefully we'll learn more about these soon.

I'ts the new wu El Fiendo was talking about in his folding pie update today. I'm running 7 of them right now.

NastyHabits shouldn't your above edit read: "here's the info straight from the Fiendish's one finger."

Have any of you that are having Fahmon problems checked there website?
Welcome to the FahMon homepage!

Scroll down to 'FahMon not recognising your WU?' and click that link. One of the recommendations is to select the client with missing data and press F4. Try that and if they have a project data file available let us know.

Well said. I stand corrected.

Chris Warren and I are posting in the Stanford Forum as we speak. I may be premature, but I do not appear to be getting any credit for these work units as of yet.

The WU is not listed in the project summary as of yet.

Edit: WU is now in the Project Summary as of 4PM EST. Update projects in Fahmon for PPD to be shown.

Yeah, and they make an 1888 look like a walk in the park. I'm getting @500 less PPD than an 1888. Kicking my temps up too.

Yep, I'll take 1888 pt WU any day. Fahmon has my farm @ 124k PPD right now, but the results from the 10101 WU's have given me only 80K ppd in the last 24hrs. Something is fishy here...:shadedshu

Been getting a lot of EUE's on the new wu's. I've even downclocked my shaders on the gpu by 200MHz and it still won't run.

Also been having issues getting new wu's for one of my VM's. PPD is in the toilet today.

Have you guys seen our points for the last 24 hours?

Points are coming, give it a few updates. It appears that not a single 10101 WU was credited to anyone since last night.

 

[p_o_s_pc]

i haven't had any problems with the new WUs yet. So maybe i am just lucky but my points are down alittle

I've gotten a bunch of EUE's and lost three jobs. Downclocked my shaders, raised my fans. Not happy.

 

[NastyHabits]

These P:10101, 548 point WU's are running 5 degrees hotter than a 353.

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Are you guys who are getting the 548"s running with -advmethods? I have not gotten them and I do not run with -advmethods. 1888's out the wazoo, but no 548's.

Yes, BUCK pm'd us to turn off the advmethods flag and it worked. However, one of my gpu's now throws EUE's on every wu it gets.

My main rig has finally recovered from its encounter with the 548's. I was really strange: it wiped out each of my 3 gpus one at a time. In each case it took almost a day before each gpu could fold again, even with repeated wiping out of data files and restarting.

I had the same problem. I finally wiped out the .cfg file, rebooted and it worked.

 

[theonedub]

I have not had any issues with the 548s yet- knock on wood. They do run hot though, like NH mentioned at least 3-5C hotter than a 353. Fan got a 7% raise right as I was getting used to the lower fan noise, lol.

 

[mstenholm]

The 99% GPU usage is my big problem with the 548s. I can hardly open any program before I have a blue screen. I have got used to shut down the folding when I use my photo editing software but now just a simple tasks like opening a document with a jpg is a sure death. I wote for a swift compleation of the **** 548s. I´m now running the 6th in a row on this rig.

Yes, but you're moving up the ranks nonetheless.

I found that a slight downclock of my CPU (0.1 GHz) and setting EVGA precision fan control to automatic stabilized things. I can actually surf the net if I so choose.

Here is a funny one and it comes at a critical time 2 -bigadv WUs complete but for some reason the Stanford server is rejecting it because of some digital signature mismatch there goes 80-90K PPD unless I can get it to submit:shadedshu

BUCK- Can you post this screenie on the folding forums and find out WTF is goings on?

Here is the one I have running at the house:

I'll post the other one from work tomorrow.

I had this crazy issue yesterday where all folding was slowing to a crawl, ~200 PPD on a 353pt WU on the 8800GT
Rebooting solved nothing, deleting the client and redownloading solved nothing, new drivers solved nothing, but it's working again now. No idea why, but at least it is

Yesterday was an auto-update for Fahcore 11 (1.31 version). This new core should help the 548pt WU be more productive. If you are running affinity/priority software with favorites enabled, the new core may not be recognized and could set to a default state and be over-run by other clients. You will have to manually correct this.

I'm not running any priority/affinity software, my experience is that it doesn't need it. I'll see what sort of PPD I get on a 548 once one arrives (I assume it's only a matter of time )

 

[mstenholm]

If you havn't been carpet bombed with 548´s yet it must be because of your advance settings. I had a day where 9 out of 10 were 548. I got 20,5 % less PPD then 353´s.
