We have now a first GPU version for the M Queens project for Windows. It requires an OpenCL 2.0 GPU. The version can be downloaded from github.com. The zip contains an installation instruction, the app and the app_info.xml.

Anybody get it run on a Radeon VII? I get errors with 2G and 8G. GPU has 16G
Hey Steve, how many Radeon VII do you have? Those fly on GIMPS for prime search world record prime number.Quote:

Very cool. I will check it out after the PG challenge.
Since the requirement is 8gb, and the VII has 16gb, I decided to try running two at a time. Seems to work just fine, and the run times are no longer. Sweet!Quote:

Well, now I can't get it work at all. I tried running just one task at a time. I tried both my VII and my RX 580. The driver keeps locking up and that in turn causes my PG CPU tasks to error. I thought this was going to be a way to accelerate my way to 50m at yoyo, but I guess not. Ah well.
Turns out that the problem was not with the app or the GPU, it was the host system. Problems with the CPU/mobo/DIMMs. Running memtest now to help root cause the issue.
Get it fixed and lets go for some Yoyo M Queens badge upgrades!
I moved the VII to a different machine. Running 2x tasks at a time now. Currently at 36M, and I plan to run until at least 50M. Looks like it will take a few days for the pending tasks to level out, and then I can see what a daily rate will look like. I am guessing somewhere around 300k.
Confirmed. The last couple of days, I got 312k and 321k.
amd and opencl 2.0.. im outQuote:
