What is CCC? OK, I used the wrong abbreviation. Ignore post. Cheers

I thought in this context it meant Catalyst Control Center?  |

Nice, Bearcat. As mentioned before, the 7 series cards are on another level...now you can see it firsthand. Since updates to software/drivers and removing CCC, I haven't had any stuck wu. Also, my video playback is smoother while crunching. :) Hats off to Nano (and others) for providing so much support to everyone with the gpu project. What is CCC? Catalyst Control Center for AMD cards. DON'T install the entire package. Just the drivers and use something else to change your settings. Had plenty of issues using CCC with my 6950. Nano said not to use it due to bugs so when I installed my 7870, I just did the drivers. Happily crunching 8 GPU wu's with zero problems. Am only crunching GPU though but my scores went through the roof doing it this way. Plus, my wattage dropped by about 100 watts not using 24 threads.

Mclaver to answer your questions,
----------------------------------------I'm running 4 or 6 on 7770's (depends on machine) and 6+ on the 7970, the last card I got. Currently dedicating all my cpu cores to crunching gpu projects until the gpu project is finished. The problem with doing this is if the gpu workunits dry up, my machines will idle within a few hours. The CCC I was referring to is catalyst control center. Instead using MSI afterburner.  |

I'm crunching 8 on my 7870 around 5:30 each give or take. Doing over 500,000 ppd. Thought about a 7770 to replace my 6950, which i'm waiting on a RMA for it.

4-5 min running 4 at a time
----------------------------------------6-7 min running 6 at a time Times vary a bit depending on CPU speed and resources available. My slowest CPU is running at 3.5 Theoretically the 7770 is exactly half as fast as the 7870. |

My slowest CPU is running at 3.5 Theoretically the 7770 is exactly half as fast as the 7870. Thanks. Got a real good deal on a 3770k, mobo and ram so making this my gpu crunching rig when I get it soon (enroute) and deciding on a second card to run dual cards. Never ran with 2 cards before and don't know if i can mismatch cards or if they should be the same. Until I put it together, can run it in my other rig. Ever run 2 different types of cards in same computer?

I'm running dual 7770's in my i7-2600k machines and they work great, each card gets 4 WU at a time to run on the 8 threads total.
----------------------------------------Not sure how it works to run different cards together...I have run different graphics card together before but not on this project. [Edit 1 times, last edit by ryan222h at Nov 3, 2012 1:07:18 PM] |
