I can't look at a SIV install since going all Linux, but if I remember correctly that info would be in Graphics >> GPU CUDA. Try using the Menu Search function and search on keyword CUDA if I haven't remembered correctly.

Thanks Bruce, it's OK. The 10598 GFLOPS peak in your logs looks right: both Ray Hinchliffe of SIV, and archae86 at Einstein, have purchased RTX 2080 cards since I asked the question, and we've compared notes already. |

For those wondering what an RTX 2080 is capable of, check out Bruce's runtimes (there were a few issues early on, but it appears those have been resolved). From the APR value, it looks like it's running 2 WUs at a time and it's running SoG with period_iterations_num=20 For comparison, my GTX 1070s are running 1 WU at a time using SoG, aggressive settings including period_iterations_num=1 BLC23s are taking me 7min 22sec one at a time. On the RTX 2080, 2 at a time, with period_iterations_num=20 (not like my 1), 4min 10sec. So (very roughly) 7min 20sec v 2min 10 sec for a given WU. Arecibo VLARs are around 8min 45+ for me, around 2min 30 for the RTX2080. Grant Darwin NT |

Hi Grant, Did a slight retune and that cleared up the warning messages. My current run times are now for one WU at a time. May try that for a while and see how it goes. I might try dropping period_iterations down later on. This is my daily driver, so can't get super aggressive. Thanks for the info. Bruce |

Hi Grant, No worries. Even so, it's output is almost double mine, even with the higher -period_iterations_num setting. Grant Darwin NT |

For those wondering what an RTX 2080 is capable of, check out Bruce's runtimes (there were a few issues early on, but it appears those have been resolved). Not so good ;) On linux, running Petri's app with a GTX 1070, BLC23 take 2min 15..... Does anyone have the BLC23 run time for a RTX 2080 using Petri's app ? |

Hi, I have not compiled one for RTX yet. TBar may have done so or Gianfranco, It may be possible to run the same code on RTX that runs on Titan V, but if it throws errors or does not run, I'll compile one. Just ask.

For those wondering what an RTX 2080 is capable of, check out Bruce's runtimes (there were a few issues early on, but it appears those have been resolved). On GTX1080Ti BLC23 is 67 seconds. The Ti is a power hog and a way slower than the Titan V with 49 seconds and Volta having constantly 90W less power draw. I hope someone with interest in Linux would get a RTX so that we would get nvidia-smi -l output of the power draw and some facts about the run times. I'll compile an executable for who ever can get a RTX2080 or a RTX2080-Ti to try with. EDIT: Corrected another typo from RTX1080 to 2080.

From what I've seen Titan V's are really expensive, a 1080Ti might be a power hog, but then if it uses 225-250w, that's not much more than My Asus 970 Turbo I've read, supposedly the Asus 970 Turbo uses 225w, even an RTX 2080 is less than a Titan V(Volta) in purchase price, ymmv on card prices.

It may be possible to run the same code on RTX that runs on Titan V, From a couple of the articles on the Turing architecture I've looked at, that's most likely to be the case. Diving straight into the microarchitecture, the new Turing SM looks very different to the Pascal SM, but those who’ve been keeping track of Volta will notice a lot of similarities to the NVIDIA’s more recent microarchitecture. In fact, on a high-level, the Turing SM is fundamentally the same, with the notable exception of a new IP block: the RT Core. Source- Annandtech. Grant Darwin NT |

Hi, The same executable may work. However here is a link to source https://drive.google.com/open?id=14SD3SU6K5iGYY3GM3aVWSb5Y19N8v5wZ and to an executable that has sm_75 (RTX2080&Ti) enabled https://drive.google.com/open?id=1b8LYfoCmzHjAjbdCHT0ig-wHxXNOYIjZ. My compilation may need certain versions of some system libraries. TBar can compile one that is more compatible.

TBar already posted a download link to a CUDA10 executable. But that only has the executable, nothing else. No way of knowing whether it is compiled for sm_75 or not since their was no documentation at all. The only way of knowing would be to run it with a Turing card and see what BOINC shows for it CC capability.

First, Wildcard started running Stock, and never ran the Special App until October. Just look at the first couple of posts in that thread, I was watching him from around day three of his arrival. Second, here is the post from the User Forum; On my machine I don't see much difference. See if it's any better on the higher end cards.It clearly says it has sm75, along with stating which cards it works with and minimum OS. Besides that, All My builds are compiled with the code=compute at the end so they will work with any forthcoming Cards, similar to how CUDA 32 and 50 are still working in Windows. The first time it runs with a 'New' GPU it will take about 20 seconds to compile and store code from the Driver and then work from then on with the 'New' GPU. So basically, even the CUDA 8 zi3v should work with Turing the same way CUDA50 works with Pascal. |

Thanks for the clarification TBar. I am lucky if I remember what I had for breakfast this morning let alone a post from several weeks ago. I just went to the downloaded archive and saw nothing but the executable and no documentation so unable to quickly read and see whether your new app has sm_75 capabilities. Couldn't find it at the usual places on CA so didn't have a clue how I got it. Thanks for the link to the original post. Good to know it is capable of running anything anyone wants to throw at it.

RTX 2070 reviews are up today. Interesting that the AIB cards are releasing at MSRP of $499. The PCPer review shows that EVGA 2070 Black Edition has the same exact power draw as the GTX 1080 at 170W. The 2070 should move up towards the top of Shaggie76's credit per watt/hour charts. But PCPer didn't run any of their normal compute benchmarks for some reason on this card. Hope they follow up with that eventually. [Edit] At least AnandTech did their usual Compute benchmarks. But they tested the Nvidia 2070 FE card which is clocked higher than the AIB cards and is $100 more than the AIB cards. For the Folding@Home single precision benchmark the 2070 FE matched the results from the 1080Ti FE card.

Yeah, depending on the benchmark it looks like it bounces between the GTX 1080 to GTX 1080Ti performance levels. But given current pricing, you'd be better off with a new GTX 1080. Grant Darwin NT |

May we ask who has one, so that we can look at the performance of it?The testing was done by Ray Hinchliffe, as mentioned in message 1956627. He provides BOINC-specific extensions to SIV, but I don't know if he runs SETI. He was running SETI in the past and this is his account ("red-ray"): https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_user.php?userid=9653891 ("Last contact 23 Sep 2018" - got a task or two but didn't finish it) Â - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :) Â |

We should know shortly how well a 2080Ti does with the CUDA10 app when Vyper gets his card this week. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |
