Re: Cant Get 100% CPU

Is there any kind of parameter for an AMD CPU that reduces processor based on heat? I have an Intel I9-7960 that runs solid at 100% but it does not have 64 processes
I remember member TonyEllis wrote this to control the CPU temperature:

Re: Cant Get 100% CPU

Hi guys I use AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1920X and have the same issue and i see it only with WCG.

base clock 3,5, boost clock for top cores 3,69, temp is always kept at 68C

What I see is when tasks load CPU up to the point when boost clocks for that top cores have to lower for example up to 3,63 then boinc stops using 1-2 or even 3 threads.

Other projects like Rosetta, NFS, Gerasim always use all given threads no matter of the temperatures and frequencies!

I use GPU too, so when I stop it and temp in a case lower a bit - boinc starts sometimes to use all cores again, sometimes not. That is so weird because clocks never go below base level, so we pretty much wasting out processing power.

Re: Cant Get 100% CPU

GPU jobs 'reserve' a CPU thread or a fraction there-off to manage the GPU job. Unless you configure with app_config and cc_Config, worst case an 8 core CPU client with 2 GPU jobs running will only allow 6 CPU jobs.
