No joke. An amicable user reports, "I noticed that my GTX 1650 appears to be at least as productive as my 1080 Ti, if not even a tad better (both 1.1-1.2 million cr/day) "
Milkyway is back up as of Monday March 4th.
Apparently on Friday they posted that, "The building we house our server in will be doing maintenance on their power systems over the weekend. Unfortunately, that means there will be an outage from today at 4pm to Monday at 10am. I am sorry for the...
The motherboard has 8 full size 16x PCIe slots and an integrated Intel Celeron 3855U. The processor is likely under-powered for many projects, but Primegrid PPS-Sieve or Milkyway@Home might be doable?

This originally came to my attention through /r/BOINC ...
The BOINC Work Group committee is researching "how BOINC can be made more user friendly, easier for anyone to set up their own short- or long term project, and for the community to join in on those endeavours. The goal is to get more people to run BOINC, to join in coding all parts that make...
I believe that Milkyway@home and Primegrid GFN21/GFN22 are the only gpu applications from BOINC projects that currently require double precision. And the last time I checked, Folding@home leaned much more heavily on single precision hardware.
Yesterday, I swapped the monitor from the Intel iGPU to the 7970 then booted into Win10. No other changes were made and the Radeon Crimson app now opens and functions normally.
I updated the Nvidia drivers to 368.22. EVGA PrecisionX has functioned correctly the entire time and continues to...
Thanks for the suggestion, Tony.
Unfortunately, Afterburner faces the same issues as Trixx. So there appears to be an issue with AMD drivers and Win10 when the installed AMD card is not used for graphic output.
Afterburner reads out the info (core+ram mhz, load, fan speeds, etc) for the...
At least in my case I'm not sure that will work. I've tried using Sapphire Trixx and while the card was detected and the program displays the general specs under the 'Card Info' section it does not show any info on the main screen besides the vrm temp eg. No clocks, voltage, temp, fan...
I can report a similar situation with my 2500k + 7970 + GTX760 setup. My monitor is hooked up to the Intel iGPU and I receive the same notification about no graphic driver installed for the AMD card. I get no such warnings about the Nvidia drivers.
GPU-Z 0.8.8 (and 0.8.7) reports everything...
This seems like useful information for the BOINC enthusiast so I've re-posted it in the BOINC subreddit : https://www.reddit.com/r/BOINC/comments/44kmet/on_running_dedicated_amd_and_nvidia_gpus_in_the/

I have a box running a 2500K + AMD Sapphire 7970 + Nvidia EVGA 760. It's plugged into a monitor, but I only use the integrated graphics on the 2500K, so both dedicated cards only process BOINC WUs. It was running Windows 7 64bit with no issues and recently upgraded to Win10 with no issues as of...
Primegrid is one of the projects that is quick to adopt new instruction sets and as a result their apps are some of the most intensive on BOINC. For the GPUs try GFN-20, GFN-21, GFN-22
Similar to some Primegrid apps, Einstein@home requires the double precision floating point capability of the...
I'd imagine any project that supports Nvidia would be able to make use of them : https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php
Einstein and Primegrid Genfer would make use of the high DP processing power.
They usually have a bit more WU available, but the project team is transitioning to a new group of PhD students/Post-docs. Per their forums...

I recently browsed through their forum because I'll be receiving my first Nvidia gpu in a couple days...
The 280x draws 200-250 watts under load, correct?
I'd probably be on the losing end of any effort to run a 2500k, Sapphire 7970, and 280x on a 700watt gold psu, right?
Agreed. Even gpuShack has some refurbished Sapphire 280Xs for $189.99 (included is a two-year warranty).
I'm looking to add another gpu to my 2500k/7970 box, but I'm limited by my 700watt (gold) psu. I'm looking for a gpu that pulls <200watts. None of the processors will be overclocked.
MW@H requires double-precision floating-point capability which, unfortunately, this card lacks. DP performance used to be reserved for the high end GPUs, but that feature is now enabled on all of the current Rx 300 series cards.
The Wikipedia page for AMD GPUs lists the single and double...
Very nice crunching setup.
It depends on the project. You might be able to get away with that on the 270xs, but I'd imagine the 7950s would require a full core.
Primegrid GFN World Record and Short require DP and run very well on the 79xx. I run 1 WU at a time on my 7970 and it's stays at...
