RE: Expected GPU Magnitude Update (17-2-2018)

in #gridcoin7 years ago (edited)

[Coprocessors: [2] NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 -> means that there are 2 GTX 970s installed

Mixing different cards from the same company is rare but they should appear as

[coprocs][BOINC|7.6.33][CUDA|GeForce GTX 780|1|3072MB|37892][CUDA|GeForce GTX 770|1|2048MB|35286][/coprocs]

in the host file.

Though that data from Einstein does look suspicious. I also ran the code a separate time only allowing for machines with one GPU and obtained close to the same results. But I may go back to limiting the results to machines with only one GPU.

I always remove machines that have multiple flags for CUDA (Nvidia), multiple flags for CAL (AMD), or both flags.

Thanks, informative.

It seems some projects report in different ways, at least on the website, as I haven't checked host files. Amicable and e@h it seems lists only name for 1 card, unlike asteroids (see @parejan comment). As tasks at e@h take the same time to finish (+/- 5%) I would be surprised if they are both 970s, as this computer takes either ~1000s or ~3000s to solve a task. Unless one card would be severely starved of some resources and the other not.

Thanks for pointing this out. Definitely something to watch.

Though I do wish that e@h (and yoyo) would use the standard current version of the website. It would make the analysis work a lot easier.
