1) Message boards : Number crunching : GPU missing after running PrecisionX16 (Message 1718869) Posted 27 Aug 2015 by Michael Banta Post: wow. I let windows reinstall the driver(instead of using the one from Nvidia's website) and the GPU has returned! Thanks for the responses!

2) Message boards : Number crunching : GPU missing after running PrecisionX16 (Message 1718864) Posted 27 Aug 2015 by Michael Banta Post: So even though the card seems to be running fine with Windows, there could still be a GPU problem?

3) Message boards : Number crunching : GPU missing after running PrecisionX16 (Message 1718861) Posted 27 Aug 2015 by Michael Banta Post: just says 'No usable GPUs' I followed your steps. no go yet

4) Message boards : Number crunching : GPU missing after running PrecisionX16 (Message 1718848) Posted 27 Aug 2015 by Michael Banta Post: So I ran EVGA PrecisionX16 program just to tweak some things. Now seti@home says the GPU is missing. Everything seems to work fine though. Computers boots, programs run, videos play nice and smooth. I have a GTX 780. I reinstalled the driver, reinstalled seti@home, reboots multiple times. WCG and rosetta@home run fine(though they are not using the GPU. Any ideas? Thanks Mike

6) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1467467) Posted 22 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: So it's not the same as Ave. work done as shown in the Boinc client under projects?

7) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1467452) Posted 22 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: Every since I disabled the built-in Intel GPU, this 780 has really kicked into gear. My Avg. work done has gone from 18,000 to over 31,000 with no other changes. Well I did turn the CPU fan to full blast also, but as someone else pointed out, the fan speed should have increased anyway as needed. Also, is 'Ave. work done' the same thing as RAC?

9) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1466002) Posted 19 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: It is very cool to hear the setups you guys have going on. You put a whole new perspective on things for me. My box is sitting on my bedroom floor with multiple fans inside it. Must get better cooling. I would love to hear more about peoples setups. Probably should start a new thread for that eh? Thanks! Mike

10) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1465976) Posted 18 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: Probably recommended to water cool the GPU and the CPU I assume?

11) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1465964) Posted 18 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: Awesome. Thank you sir.

12) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1465950) Posted 18 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: I'm starting to see that I need to add water cooling to my box. Right now it is winter time here and the house is cool. I don't want to kill any components with heat. Is there water cooling for the GPU also (say the 780)? Or is cooling just for the processor?

13) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1465936) Posted 18 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: I just broke 28,000 RAC, which is my highest ever, with the help of the 780. Looking a lot better now.

14) Message boards : Number crunching : Haswell CPU Question (Message 1464761) Posted 15 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: First off I'd like to say I'm an idiot. I was looking at my GPU temp not my CPU temp with I said 50 deg... I rebooted to check my BIOS. Under Peripherals I have: Inter Processor Graphics which I have disabled. Under Performance, I have: CPU Fan speed (full speed) Also, I used Precision x to set my GPU fan to a higher than normal speed. Don't know if you have these exact options...

15) Message boards : Number crunching : Haswell CPU Question (Message 1464429) Posted 14 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: Hi there. I have a Haswell also and I'm running at 49deg C. I have a GTX 780 running full blast and 5/8 cores are crunching on the CPUs. I had problems until I went into the system BIOS and disabled the built-in Intel GPU and turned the CPU fan up to full blast. Now my box is kicking butt. Mike

16) Message boards : Number crunching : 780 not so impressive - yet (Message 1463380) Posted 12 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: Yea the GPU usage went up after I turned off the built-in Intel GPU and turned up the CPU fan speed. Suddenly everything sped up, 780 GPU and the 5 CPU are kicking butt now!

17) Message boards : Number crunching : Intel hd 4600 ??? (Message 1463378) Posted 12 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: Just had a similar discussion... I also have the i7 4770k with built-in Intel GPU. I found that having the Intel GPU active in the BIOS, caused my system in general and the GTX 780 to run poorly. Not until I disabled it did my 780 really start to crunch like it should. My problem was due to heat though. I don't have a water cooler (yet) for the CPU and I hear the Haswells run hot. Turning up the CPU fan in the BIOS seemed to help also. So if you do run the built-in GPU keep this in mind if you see poor performance with your system. My system becomes less aggressive as the heat rises. Built in fail safes I assume. Mike

A new hybrid maybe? I'm sorry you don't approve of my choices :( I will check in with you next time I make a life decision. Mike

19) Message boards : Science (non-SETI) : M13 and M31 (Message 1463294) Posted 11 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: That is awesome! Uranus is the furthest planet I've seen with a scope. Pale blue small dot, but bigger than a star.

20) Message boards : Number crunching : GTX 780 and GT520 on same motherboard? (Message 1462883) Posted 11 Jan 2014 by Michael Banta Post: oops. I said 520. I meant a 560. I assume I still don't want to run a 560 along side a 780?
