Crashes on FahCore_22

Post by Familyman_19 »

I seem to be getting some random crashes on the GPU side of things. It happens maybe every third day or so, but I get a pop up that FahCore_22 has crashed. Of course it doesn't restart until I close the pop up, which in the most recent case was after 12 hours. Here is where the log shows the crash. Each time it has been the same error. Anything I can do in these instances or is it just something to live with?

Code: Select all

If you have't cleaned dust out of your system recently, start with that. If your GPU is overclocked, and this includes factory overclocking, try reducing the clock by a bit or run at reference speeds for your card.

FahCore_22 recently switched to CUDA. So you can try to go back to OpenCL by adding extra core options: -disable-cuda

Also, do you have sufficient VRAM and are any other applications using VRAM on your system?

I do have an overclock on the GPU. I dropped it 25MHz. We'll see if that helps. It didn't show any issues until the switch to CUDA, but maybe that was enough to push it over the edge.

I have the 6GB 1060, currently during folding I am sitting around 10% utilization. It peaked at 30% in the last 15 hours, but I did some gaming last night. I typically pause FAH while I game. The crashes have typically occurred when I'm not using the PC for anything other than folding.

CUDA processes more work per unit time so it can push an overclock "over the line" It should be noted that FAH tends to exceed the utilization rates that you get when you run conventional overclocking benchmarks. 100% means different things to different portions of your CPU which is why FAH officially not not support overclocking. You're entirely on your own when new software comes out and we manage to increase the throughput.

I've had one random Fah_Core_22 crash since the switchover to CUDA from OpenCL. So far, it hasn't reoccurred, but I'll keep an eye out for any more. My Folding system is a Gen1 Core i7, with an nVidia GTX970 graphics card. I've been folding with the same kit for eight months now, error-free. This may have just been a random glitch related to a particular WU. We'll see.

Occasionally, you may get a bad WU and there's nothing that you can do about it: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=16526
