    Thumbs up 7xxx Sexiness Thread! :D





    This is my newest addition to the XS Crunching Family. I may have another on the way soon. I'm really starting to like 100K BOINC PPD.


    Please post up the pics of your new(est) additions to the XS WCG Crunching Family!

    Sam,

    For the NFG to crunching, me...

    Could you please list the details of the rig depicted in the above farm stock addition. (MB, RAM. PSU, CPU, HS+Fans and video cards) settings and production results would also be much appreciated. I want to built an efficient new crunching rig for myself and you certainly appear to be the person to benchmark and learn from.

    Thanks,
    Jean-Guy

    When it comes to benchmarking, I'm not in that camp at all. I just get it to a stable & efficient clock & move on. Currently at 4Ghz but I'll tweak it up a little bit more, once it's run in
    I originally intended for it to run with two cards, but I had a card left over as I'm waiting on another board

    Sam,

    Thank you very much for providing the above details on your new rig. This information is of much value to me.

    If it is not a trade secret, what ratio GPU/CPU are you running on that rig? How many WUs per card?

    Sure wish that I could give you a formal web thank you..! (need 50+ more posts for option)

    Jean-Guy

    fairly certain that the cards are going to melt down to a nice handy pile of plastic. really how did they manage to get that past reliability testing?but i still want to have it

    I'm going to order a 7850 by the end of this week. My HTPC has a maximum video card length of 250mm, which is kind of a bummer. I'll have more pics then.

    I think 8 7990 with watercooling would be a better investment. More shaders + cheaper.

    Yeah...there is not much space there.

    I think you could have went with a 7870 if you wanted more power. Just some quick searching and I think this 7870 is less than 250mm. Should be close to reference 7870 which is 9.5" long.

    Na, they run full blast fairly well - at least in the other GPU server clusters my work had, and they looked just like that. Sound like tornadoes though!


    24 hour prime stable? Please, I'm 24/7/365 WCG stable!

    So you can do Furmark, Can you Grid???

    I'm still cautious about heat with GPUs. Water cooling a rack like that before spanking it 24/7 strikes me as a good, if expensive, idea.

    I honestly don't care too much about GPUs and heat. The performance of GPUs scales much more quickly than that of CPUs, so to me their usable life span is much shorter compared to CPUs. I keep a CPU for several years and upgrade GPUs frequently. That's just my $0.02.

    Well the lifespan of one of my MSI cards above was just three days

    Definetely a short and sweet lifespan, SAM.

    At least you should get a quick replacement for it directly from the merchant you bought it from.

    In my own situation, the cost/lifespan ratio is important. Killing a $400 video card due to excess heat is, to me anyway, an exorbitant cost and beyond my means at half that price. If I spend real money on hardware I need a five year lifespan MINIMUM. Failing just out of warranty will guarantee I do not buy that brand again.

    I've run some GPUs crunching 24x7 for lengthy periods of time at pretty high temps (295, 285, 460, 480, 660Ti, 670 last 2 not very hot) and have not had any die on me yet. In particulr I've been crunching the 295 for about 3.5 years almost non stop with no sign of degradation - heck it's working hcc right now

    (well one card died but that was my fault as I shorted the damn thing when playing with cpu fan clips while the system was running)
