11) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : 2 580s or 1 690 ? (Message 26010)
Posted 4318 days ago by Mark Henderson
I ordered an EVGA 680 signature 2 overclocked with 2 fans this morning. I'll try running it beside my current 570. Will I have to reinstall Nvidia drivers again with the new 680 ?

I'm not sure if 4.2 will run on a pre Fermi card, only 500s and 600s series, I could be wrong though. Can anyone confirm this?

It would be beneficial if there was some way to tell after the fact that a WU labeled 3.1 was processed using 4.2 for the user and the project in case troubleshooting was required for some problems with results or whatever. Hopefully no problems will arise.

I,m trying to decide to get a 680 now and another later or go ahead and sink a Grand into 1 690. Any thoughts on this to help me get the best bang for the bucks. Or wait on the 685 Big Kepler ?
Thanks

There is a Boinc flag to help with the earlier problem..

16) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : Cuda 4.2 WUs seem much faster than the old 3.1 (Message 25733)
Posted 4330 days ago by Mark Henderson
Is it just me or is the cuda 4.2 WUs 30-40 percent faster than the 3.1s are.
It seems amazing the difference is so extreme.

Also, is it a good time now to get a 680 ? now that the project will support it ??

I have noticed my computer is very unresponsive when running the Beta units. Win 7 x64, GTX570, 301.25 nvidia driver, 3770k CPU, Sabertooth X77 Motherboard.
Besided the slowdown beta is running great on my system. Over 300 of them now last i looked.

Could someone look at my tasks please, they error out as soon as they try to start. I ran GPU grid fine about 4 months ago but just started back and it will not run anymore.
Thanks

6.09 Cuda 3.1 beta is running good on my 55nm EVGA 260s. As did the previous versions also, with moderate overclock.
Just 1 WU completed so far but it seems to be 5 to 10 percent faster than 6.05 was.
Time per step seems 2x faster than I usualy see.
