View Full Version : MW: 2 WUs when in Crossfire?

For some reason I thought that when in crossfire, the two GPUs would crunch together on a single WU. In MW on Kat's rig with the new HD4870's from Shadow in CrossFire, MW is crunching 2 WUs, a single one on each card.
Is this normal? Thanks!

Yes. BOINC still sees them as separate GPUs.

Depends on the project. DNET/Moo will use both cards on the same WU. MW crunches a WU on each GPU.

OK, thanks guys. Looks like all is working well, then. Half the day gone and she is at 75K for MW today. I might have to O/C these 4870's a little more. :D

Crossfire (or not) is invisible to BOINC. One project app (moo/dnetc) will run on all GPUs, like AQUA does on CPUs. The rest treat GPUs individually, CF or not.

Have you had much luck running MOO with multiple GPUs in a single system? You may have posted this in another thread but if you did, I have not seen it.

Not yet, but I think I may have a PSU issue. I have a replacement arriving on Monday.

Really? I'm not the only one to see flames come from my motherboard? About a year ago, was watching a movie on my system when it went pop and I had a little flame from one of the caps.

:rolleyes: If was a sound device I would tell you all, for me it seems just like a computer :D I will take the oportunity to ask gently. WOULD YOU PLEASE SPEAK ENGLISH. 386 sx is a kind of motorcicle?

Duke the best at not knowing about computers :p

:confused: If you have a good question about computers do it to me the answer will be always the same. I JUST DONT KNOW b-)

:o I have a GPU to put on my computer makes now 2 months. I am still watching it. But paying a lot of attencion. (:|

^:)^I think this HD5450 has no chance and the other that is in the box the HD5870 is so beatifull one day I will marry it. I will go to that priest perhaps he will do the marriage. :x

:confused: For Dandasarge the answer I dont know. I thought it was trying to learn how to smoke. Nobody told him we must drink a beer to get the temperature down. :-$ When I thought I knew about computers I overclocked mine and it died in my hands. I thought I have eard him say "you killed me" :o

:p For joker a question it is a motorcicle site? There is something squared

LOL! I remember using our 386 in my Dad's office when I was a kid...lots of fun on that thing with a game called Commander Keen 4 (http://www.dosgamesarchive.com/download/commander-keen-4-secret-of-the-oracle/)! :D

I think we were even styling with 4MB of RAM that was waaaaaay expensive when it came out, too! ;)

:p Yes I finnished working with computers when that thing was in the market. I once tried to make a network by RS232 and a software I dont remember the name. :mad: More the time the netdidntwork than the network. That was at Citybank on Sao Paulo Brasil. To transfer a small text archive we need to make a break for lunch. :x I was so happy working with IBM 4341/81, Roscoe, IMS Db/Dc, DLI, COBOL. OH my I am old. Now I am going to cry. :((
