[New release] BRP app v1.23/1.24 (OpenCL) feedback thread
(Message 112035)
Posted 4 May 2012 by EselTreiber Post: Feedback from Ubuntu 12.04_amd64 with Catalyst 12.4 /HD6950@6870: Boinc: last SVN version. Runs fine, no computation errors if all dependencies are installed. (32bit libraries) 2 Tasks on one GPU give me 90-94% GPU-utilisation with CPU load of 12-14% (Core i7 4.3GHz) per Workunit. Performance is (compared to nvidia) 1/2 of a GTX 470. |

Posted 26 Jan 2012 by EselTreiber Post: Today, AMD released a new beta driver, Catalyst 12.2. With this driver, Workunits are using 81% of the GPU (HD 6950@6970 full Shader). It could be even more, because the CPU limits the GPU-load. My Core i7-2600k ( 4.3GHz, only one Albert@home WU is running) is not able to deliver enough performance to bring GPU-load to 100%. If the CPU starts crunching other WUs (one core is exclusivly for Albert@home GPU-Workunit), the GPU-load drops to 75% and lower. Is there a chance, that CPU-load for GPU-WUs could be lowered in the future? |
