You got the info all wrong!

90°C is a setting on Tthrottle!
while they are usually around run about 50-60°C, in my home (2x 730, 240 & 1050Ti).;)

I just went by what you posted.

That's why I use Tthrottle on Win & keep my nVidias under 90°C!

I interpret that as using Tthrotlle to keep the GPU temperatures below 90°.

Solution's might be:
- use of L5600 series procs? they are 60W only!
- put newer BIOS from HP?
- use of extra 80, 120, 150mm fan on a case?

I recently switched from X3360 to a low powered Q9400S & Q9550S...they are not so "power hungry" & still using the OEM intel coolers from X3360...works like a charm! ;)

L5600s would be serious performance step down from X5675s (3.07/3.4ghz hexacore @95w)
BIOS update is latest from HP, 2016, doubt it would support L-series CPUs though
Doubt Intel 5520 chipset would support L-series CPU, regardless of BIOS
Has added 120mm PWM fan, but could take case fans off pwm as noted above also
Z600 is now 7 y/o box
Thanks for the input.
[edit]
Apologies for drifting OT. Thought I was in the Xeon thread.

That's why I use CPUs on WCG...which only gets you badges for a time donation, not for a RAC! ;)

My GPUs on other hand get the job done on SETi@home! ;)

Some chipsets might be wrong...so they got pretty heated up! ;)

Had to keep them under 90°C, not to overheat...even new paste didn't help out!
Sold them out to a gamers...they didn't have problems with the cards, as they don't pull 100% from them! ;)

Now, I'm on a verge of being a number 1 in Croatia with my new cards... ;)

i moved the gtx-1070 from an amd-8350 to my i1-5820 and it is displaying the same low GPU load. its not the platform it appears to be the card or the driver...

I wouldn't expect too much performance running CUDA 50.

i have installed lunatics and added the commandline that i found on the forum for the 1070 and made it run 2 WU per GPU. I am not seeing much improvements. I've assigned 1 core per GPU WU also.

the load was almost 100% on the GPU with 1 WU, so I am assuming it is useless nowadays to run 2? or am I doing something wrong?

Going to anonymous platform is needed only to manual select of particular plan class/app. Usually after some time host selects best one on its own.
In this case anonymous platform not needed cause setup like 2 WU/device or tuning line can be supplied via app_config.xml instead.

We're not gonna fight them. We're gonna transcend them.

i've installed lunatics for the cpu, i thought it would help? if not, how do i fallback in that case?

as for the 2 WU per GPU, i used to have a 780 and running 3 WU. But that was running CUDA not SoG. I am assuming it is pointless to run more than 1 WU per GPU nowadays?

Wrong.
For your GPU`s running 2 instances is always better.

Opt CPU apps faster than stock.

Depends on config. For medium-high end GPUs 2+ tasks usually better than 1. At least to hide startup delays if nothing else.

This is a great topic to start sharing some optmizations for the cards!

Now I'm just finishing my work on my job, on which I do SETi@home with Quadro M2000 4GB card. My cmdline today is:

      <cmdline>-high_precision_timer -use_sleep -sbs 512 -period_iterations_num 20 -tt 240</cmdline>
      <ngpus>0.33</ngpus>

A BIG help came from a great Aussie guy named Stephen here on forum...Thanks man!

Screen gives my freedom to work, while I'm not in CAD...maybe I'll change that in future!
Will post some examples at home, from my other cards...to share, that's what forum is for! ;)
