    Milkyway - Benchmark thread - GPU & CPU times wanted, old & new hardware!

    So please share your new scores for old & new GPUs & CPUs alike!

    Please note requirements for the benchmark :-

    Validated 106.88 credit WUs only & must be from the MilkyWay@Home v1.0x app (the separation mod fit ones are slower, ~20s on my HD 5850 @850 MHz).

    Average of 5 WU times (not cherry picked please! ).

    A dedicated CPU core for each GPU.

    Please state clock speeds if overclocked (including factory overclocks) or state 'stock'.

    Please only crunch 1 WU at a time per GPU, otherwise it will massively increase WU time! (even if it does increase output, the WU times seem to fluctuate much more than singly crunched WUs so you can't 1/2 the time either).

    For CPUs you'll want to crunch 1 WU per real core.

    It would also be handy if you could state your BOINC & driver version & OS, incase it does make any odds.

    I'm hoping the large team SETI.USA has in MW will bag a load of times .

    Intel i7-4702MQ @2.2GHz, (HT on) ...................... 6245s ... Maxwell

    ************************************************** **********************************

    If you've seen my previous benchmark threads at other forums & your wondering why I'm starting over again it's because the original (long) version of the 213.76 credit WU used for that benchmark has become only sporadically available now. At 1st a short version joined it & so for a while we had both (which confused some people) & then the long 1 disappeared altogether for a time! It is sporadically back now but it just makes things too difficult.

    Also I later found out that some people don't run the mod fit WUs (like the 213.76s) because of lower credit & some people can't run them due to hardware limitations (e.g HD 3800s). I did ask at the MW forum originally but no one said anything .
    So this time I've chosen MW@H v1.02 106.88 credit WU for the benchmark, although it's shorter run times give the illusion of smaller performance gaps between different hardware it'll be easier overall.

    Further info.

    Current benchmarking thread at AT
    For reference, link to my 1st MW benchmark thread at AnandTech.
    New thread at the Milky Way forums & the KWSN thread

    Stock clocks for the above o/ced graphic cards (GPU/RAM MHz):-

    HD 5850 ...................... 725/1000
    HD 5970 ...................... 725/1000 (dual GPU)
    HD 7950 ...................... 800/1250
    HD 7950 Boost ............. 850-925/1250
    R9 280X ...................... 850-1000/1500

    ************************************************** ********

    Thank god this uses similiar forum s/w as AT, it seems all links & formatting held
    Btw still trying to gather enough times to add my old CPU to the list, but not getting enough CPU WUs!

    GPU: Radeon HD 7970. Stock clocks: 1,000 MHz Core and 1375 MHz Memory. One MW WU = 25 seconds. (If I suspend all CPU work).

    OS Windows 7 x64. CPU: i7 3820. BOINC Ver. 7.4.27. AMD Driver Catalyst Ver. 14.9.

    My bad for not monitoring this thread! I don't recall getting a thread sub update though, I wonder what happened there........

    Drpop
    Is that an average of 5 WUs?

    Maxwell
    Thx for the time, I will update the table, especially useful to get a rare CPU time .
    Btw they were v1.0x 106.88 credit WUs right?

    Duke of Buck.
    Done any MW WUs yet?

    Was that time an average of 5 WUs? I'd like to add your time as we don't have any GHz edition 7970s atm!
    [update] Confirmed via PM, thx Jed

    Btw I shall no longer be updating the table in this thread due to lack of replies, so unless that suddenly changes see the AnandTech New benchmark thread for a more recent table.
