Re: Only 50% GPU utilization and no CPU WUs

Task manager is horrible at guessing GPU usage, I vastly prefer the sensor screen on GPU-Z. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/ That should show more detail with more accuracy. The bottle neck is complex and varies over time but here is the one I think I understand. The client has hardcoded two IP ad...

Re: Only 50% GPU utilization and no CPU WUs

It's a question of Supply and Demand. The FAH servers are overwhelmed with Donors trying to help. Please be patient. Your Client will keep trying to find as server that can deliver you a CPU assignment. Science demands that some GPU projects have a lot of atoms and others do not. Small proteins can...

Only 50% GPU utilization and no CPU WUs

I came back to folding recently, and I noticed that the current client only uses 50% of my GPU. Is there a reason for that? Is there something that might be capping it? I am also not getting any CPU WUs for a while. Are they just not available? Also, on an unrelated note, the viewer only shows DEMO....

Re: Catalyst 13.1 drivers are out

So, I got things back to normal again. Driver fusion to remove everything, AMD uninstaller to remove SDK runtime, install SDK v2.7, install 13.1 drivers to lock all the other slots in (DESELECT SDK when doing so, otherwise you'll need to use the uninstaller to remove the SDK once you're done because...

Re: [Radeon 5770] Folding@home is not using the full GPU pow

13.1 9.012-121219a-152192C-AT is my current driver is it bugged? :/ The drivers don't seem to be. It happens that every once in a while a new set of drivers would come along that would require some applications to be modified or recompiled to take advantage of them. Same with games; sometimes a new...

Re: At ~30% and blue screens with new drivers

So is it that the new drivers are too different, or do you just need to compile the client for the new drives?

At ~30% and blue screens with new drivers

Hello, I have installed the new set of AMD drivers for my 6990 (Catalyst 13.1) and have been unable to get FAH to use 100% of my GPUs. It stays at ~30% and crashes into blue screen after a while. I have yet to reinstall FAH, which I shall try soon. I'm using FAH 7.2.9 (or at least I think this is th...
