Chris, there's a thread on this topic in both the HCC forum and one in the GPU Support forum. They're both beyond my understanding but you may find them of use.

 Good Thursday Morning Team Congratulations xroule, pohSoon and cht! !!!  Yes!! The sun came out and felt so good on my back You are right RT after three days of miserable weather it is depressing--i guess it has something with old age--congrats to all and anticipating RTs new cruncher everyone be safe today--The new cruncher is an I7/3770 K. While I am still waiting on the fan from CoolerMaster (Grumble Grumble), I put the stock CPU cooler on it and got it going. It can run 4 WUs at a time without getting too hot. So I have it doing that. Build went smoothly. brown chris. Didn't I tell you guys that as soon as I spent my nest egg on a new CPU cruncher, they would fire up the GPU project!! Well that is just what happened.  OK, well you are right about the GPU project making your screen jerky, that is because the processors in your video card are busy working on the HCC project and have to be interrupted to service your actions on the screen. Often this causes delays in user interaction. You have several options:1) Live with it. 2) I think you can tinker with the agent>Preferences>processor usage and set it to turn off the check mark "Use GPU while computer is in use" and then set the "Only after computer has been idle for ___ minutes. (I think). See if that will help. 3) Turn off GPU processing. 4) Get another video card and let one do GPU processing while the the other just drives the screen. It looks like the HCC GPU WUs that I am getting run in about 4 minutes on the NVIDIA GTX 580 and get about the same credit as do the CPU WUs that run in excess of an hour on that machine (of course there are 7 of them running at once (since one of the cores/HTs is used along with the GPU to run the GPU task). I have the CPU set to 90% to keep CPU cycles available to the GPU WU. Hope that makes sense.  Everyone have a great day!! Really! |

Well, it kind of makes sense, but how do you direct GPU processing for HCC (or any other WCG work) to the GPU you purchased for doing the GPU processing. I don't understand how you separate the two GPU cards.

I don't understand how you separate the two GPU cards. The only way I know to do it is to use a card for your display that is on the list of cards not acceptable to WCG (List can be found HERE ) I would bet there is a more elegant way but I don't know about it yet. |

So, I guess, that would mean to get a separate card for GPU processing and install it without connecting the monitor to it. Is this correct? Is there anything else I may need to be aware of? |

Well that is not what I was thinking but that might work. If you have one that is running GPU work now, you could by a small cheap Video Card and hook your monitor to the new small card. (this was what I was thinking). I am no expert on this. I have a big I7 cruncher that I put this NVIDIA GTX580 in and hooked the monitor to it. I have not had time to dig into it but now it seems as if my monitor is not working (black)..but when I Teamviewer into it, I can see that it is humming along really well running 6 HCC CPU WUs and one HCC GPU WU. I have to dig into this some more shortly but as of now I have customers with broken computers waiting. And the cooling fans for my V8 Cooler just arrived and I have to fix that and crank up that machine to full speed. I do this while the virus killer stuff is running on customer computers. |
