Re: Cannot finish Core 21 WU

Maybe under US law, less than sure about that in the UK, I suspect caveat emptor would apply. Especially after 18 months!

Other questions would be off-topic, PM sent.

Re: Cannot finish Core 21 WU

Option 1: The power is exceeding TDP. Possible... not sure how I can tell, there aren't any diagnostic utilities for Linux (that I'm aware of). Suggestions? (FWIW it's a 600W PSU) Option 2: The fan or fan-speed regulation circuitry is failing. Unlikely- that seems to reacting correctly to the temper...

Re: Cannot finish Core 21 WU

Interesting, to say the least. Do those temperature changes correlate to some non-FAH activity, such as screen update frequency or to running some other program that might use the GPU? Just had another one, Project: 9704 (Run 30, Clone 15, Gen 15) if it matters. Happened to spot it just as it start...

No, it's a dedicated machine, nothing else on it, and the display is in sleep mode most of the time unless I'm updating the OS or something simil...

Re: Cannot finish Core 21 WU

I've had an oddity with Core_21 on my 780 Ti (Linux, 346.35 drivers, overclocked from NVidia stock but underclocked from factory setting), not sure if it's related. Normally it runs at ~70-73ºC, but occasionally it will shoot up to the low 80's, stay there for 10 minutes or so then drop back to norm...

and the timestamp on the latest summary file is Thu Aug 20 05:20:03 PDT 2015

Don't be upset, some of us do :wink:

In fact I've got email notifications turned on for that forum- I like to know what might be coming my way!

Same here, 'though I used an iMac as that's where I was sitting.

@David- have you tried a different machine? Maybe something went awry on the rebuild?

Re: core_21 not beta now?

As v0.0.4 it hasn't been a beta core for some time, but only P9704 WUs were available. (edit- since end of May: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=27749#p276703)

v0.0.11 is now available with the adv flag for P9704 and P9712- see here: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=27976

Re: Core_21 v11 (P9712) not working with Win XP 64-bit

That turned out to be a bad move. System started trashing every GPU WU. Had to reinstall Ubuntu. :( Someone mentioned some while ago that drivers from ppa's sometimes have bits missing, eg xorg-edgers had no CUDA drivers at one point iirc. Although it's a bit of a chore, I've always found it safest...

Re: Core_21 v11 (P9712) not working with Win XP 64-bit

My 780Ti on Linux runs Core18 and Core21 on 346.59. My 780 Ti is running fine on cores 17, 18 and 21 with 346.35 (Linux Mint 17.2)... as are the GTX 980's. (I thought I'd updated the drivers to .59 a while ago but I obviously forgot :oops: ) It may be that later drivers are required for Windows tha...

Re: Stats summary files

It's EOC, Kakao picked up the summary file OK.

EOC seems to miss an occasional update, it should be OK on its next run.

Re: Core 21 issues

I'm running Core_21 WUs fine with 346.46 on Mint, but only adv client, not beta. I'm not sure what may have changed- I think there's a later core?

Re: Core 21 issues

We're guessing that minimum version of drivers requirements are needing a bump for core 21 : viewtopic.php?p=278157#p278157 I see from a post a couple before yours in that thread that ChristianVirtual seems to be running Core_21 OK with NV 346.46 drivers on Linux- is it likely to be a problem with ...
