Well, I'm back. We have a larger data cap now, so I can afford to run WCG again. Armed with an i5 2400 that does a lot of encoding and an overclocked Athlon x4, I can't do very much, but I do what I can.

I wonder what the PPD is on Ryzen?

Those results aren't very consistent... I'm seeing anywhere from :love:

4k to >1k. Are those BOINC points or WCG points?

thebluebumblebee · Apr 14, 2017

BOINC

hat · Apr 14, 2017

Wow, that's pretty good. I wonder what a 6900k at the same clockspeed would do...

Ignoring the dip while I was doing some benchmarking, that was running 24/7 at stock speeds, averaging 14k on mapping cancer markers up to the 8th April, the huge rise to 34k (24k average I'd say) was on the Smash childhood cancer which has finished now

It was running at 220W stock (all cores @ 3.7ghz), I've just bought it up to 3.95ghz 1.375v last night and it's doing 275w, you won't see the results of that for a few days though, and it'll probably be less than the short stint doing only SCC work units anyway.

So I got the combo setup and running with the newest version of Ubuntu, but for some reason I cannot get this machine to run the CPU at full speed. I have tried a number of things after googling different things and nothing seems to be working.

I'm an Ubuntu noob so I'm pretty lost and am not sure what else to try from here. The other dedicated rig I have running Ubuntu had no issues running the CPU at max, so I'm really not sure what the deal is with this install...

I dunno, maybe I'm going mad, I thought i read it in a post and you guys were on about setting a large work buffer.

Must have been wrong because I picked up a load more SCC work a few hours ago, but it jumped to aids/zika/ebola/mcm this morning.

It's not that silly 60% processor usage setting in the BOINC Manager is it?

That was the first thing I checked, but CPU is running at 1.6ghz, regardless of BOINC Mgr running or not. BIOS turbo boost is disabled and I have bclk turned up a touch and ratio to 33, should give it 3.5ghz.

I believe this is something in the OS causing this problem, I just can't figure out how to fix.

Just some additional info, within the config file for cpufrequtils ( /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils ) , I have the governor set to Performance and the min speed and max speed set to 3500.

ENABLE="true"
GOVERNOR="performance"
MAX_SPEED="3500"
MIN_SPEER="3500"

What do you guys use to read cpu frequency in Ubuntu?

Actually, I'm not getting as many jobs as I should. You might be on to something. :fear:

lscpu for a quick look, and if I want to see all 4 cores, I'll use this command

#grep -E '^model name|^cpu MHz' /proc/cpuinfo

infrared · Apr 14, 2017

Much simpler one: cat /proc/cpuinfo

Edit - nice stevorob, I like it

stevorob · Apr 14, 2017

Figured out my problem... after messing with the OS for hours, come to find out there is a switch on the motherboard that was in the wrong position, causing the CPU to run at a lower speed regardless of any overclock or ratio settings...

Nordic · Apr 15, 2017

My 4790k and another 2400s coming online today.

Would the OS report the relative speeds as set by the board? Just wondering if the OC was set for say 4.0 but board was running 3.5, what would OS report?

Arjai · Apr 15, 2017

Just set up my new phone, MOTO Z something, the one with the better processor, and it is now running two tasks. I have it set to start at 11 pm until 5 am. Should get a few tasks done in that time each day. I set the profile up to just take Vina's, but forgot to assign it to my android. LOL. but it will eventually just be Vina's.

We'll see how it goes.
PS, just set it to the correct profile, just FA@H Vina.

When I dug into the BIOS a bit more, I saw the cpu was running at 1.6ghz while in BIOS, same as what the OS was reporting.

I imagine if I had the OC set for 4.0 and the board was locked at 3.5, OS would probably still report 3.5

Whew, I can take a chill pill:

As some of you have noticed, the current batch of work for the Smash Childhood cancer work will finish in about a week or so. We were expecting more work right away so that there would not be a pause. However, the researchers were not able to prepare the work for the next cancer targets as quickly as originally thought. Part of the difficulty has been obtaining exact structures of some of the targets. But, they expect to have another target to run soon. They are continuing to work on determining the structure of other targets and for even later, they are choosing additional targets for the future. So, please be patient and thank you for all of the contributions to date.

So there will be more work but just not yet, no? I just added in another project because it looked like SCC was ending at 99%, and with only HST running in addition, I didn't want to run dry.

HAPPY EASTER!!!

If you don't celebrate Easter then just enjoy your Sunday!!!

Anyone else having trouble getting FAAH2? I added it in days ago, but apparently I never received any WUs. Checked my main rig earlier and found it empty of work, but then we got it running by adding in MCM. So SCC is out, but I did get one more SCC, must have been a resend.

Just checked my wife's pc and it was dry too, had to manually update.

Mainly wondering about FAAH2... :confused:
