Re: GPUs that are known to not work

With unadulterated client settings, it seems only higher end NVidia cards are being supported.
My programming laptop has a GTX 1060 buildin and just loves OPNG like some people like PBJ or popcorn tongue .
Similar for a CAD workstation here in the office that as an RTX A2000. It "seems" a bit less performant than my GTX 1060, but then this is doing CAD work all (work) day long (with an 11th Gen i7 10C/20T CPU).
A couple of workstations have GTX 1050Ti's and they are not considered "worthy" at all. Another station has IIRC a GTX660, which also doesn't get any OPNG but is happily crunching Einstein@Home GPU tasks (the GTX1050Ti won't).

Intel GPUs (just getting a cryptic message that this wouldn't be configured for such) don't get considered, neither do ATI Raedon cards for all I know.

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

My GeForce GTX 745 and HD Graphics 4600 work fine with OPNG without registry changes:

Interesting.
Both of my two hosts that have workable NVdia GPU as well as Intel GPUs are crunching Einstein@Home GPU tasks just perfectly fine on Intel, but WCG moppers something about it not being configured to use the Intel GPU... confused

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

All I can say though, is that with the right TDR settings, some older NVidia GPU's like mine, does indeed work with OPNG, but they are pretty slow though, compared to newer GPU's.

Thanks Grumpy Swede for pointing me to that direction.

After adding the DWORD TdrLevel in the registry with value 0, OPNG is working well now on the GeForce GTX 765M.
However I'm disappointed about the performance, cause that GPU is even a bit slower than the Intel iGPU HD Graphics 4600 in the same machine.
I expected the dedicated GPU to be twice as fast (less slow).
Both cards need about 47 minutes elapsed time for 1 OPNG-task with about 17 jobs inside the task.

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

ATI HD5770 on my machine does not work, despite doing some creative GPU assignments in cc_config....

In maybe 100 tries, there may be one successful one, and when it works, it takes only ~10 minutes.....

scratching my head....

When the project fails, it is stuck at 100% but still 'running'. That's typically after 24 hours of being stuck there.

My observation is that as the computation progress, the % increments become less and less. It may take 5 minutes to progress the first 5% (hypothetical), but moving from 99.998 to 100% may take 6 hours.

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

Nice hint, Crystal Pellet.

Could you indicate, where exactly in the registry you added said DWORD TdrLevel?
EDIT: I suppose here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers

Trying to make a GT 740M work against all odds... Thank you!

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

Unfortunately setting DWORD TdrLevel 0 in registry does not fix my Nvidia GT 740M issues.
opencl_nvidia_102 still report error after mx 50% of calculation.

I'd b grateful for additional pointers, thank you in advance.

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

GT 740M started working after 2 years of failed tasks. It's absurd and while it is theoretically much faster than the built-in IBM HD graphics 4600 it crawls at 30% of that speed.

Re: GPUs that are known to not work

Does WCG WU's support Quadro K4200 x 2 in SLI mode? I have never received any so far hence asking.

At least since the beginning of the new year, there haven't been any GPU WUs at all, the only project that is commonly using any GWU at WCG is/was OPNG, and that is currently on a hiatus...
