Re: AMD Radeon VII - Double Precision

Yes, implementing pure double precision units in hardware requires a lot of extra transistors and space on the die. I'm not sure what AMD was smoking when they released Radeon 7, as I'm sure they have never got their money back from those cards.

Re: Core26 released to full FAH ?

Not that simple. If it was, this sh*t would have been built early last year ;)
Since I'm trying not to pressure the Devs, I keep the question to once a month or two.

Re: Problems folding on eGPU

Log files might reveal what is actually happening. I really doubt your eGPU is falling asleep. More likely that it is failing WUs one after another at which point fahclient steps in and pauses that device for it not to cause any more harm to the project. Screenshot of System Info within web UI would...

Re: Core26 released to full FAH ?

AMD has HIP out. It is now down to us to implement it. Initially core25 was supposed to be hip. Due to issues with other stuff, core26 was born, which fixed some issues, but had other issues, again HIP integration to backseat. Core27 then was thought to have HIP. But it was pushed without hip to mak...

Re: Core26 released to full FAH ?

Tflops is marketing nonsense. It died long time ago.
AMD has this dual issue design, which kinda doubles the tflops. While they have no intention to optimise for that neat hardware feature, marketeers make sure to still use bigger number better

Hip does not care about performance per watt. 5080 has more performance

Re: WU stuck or "Paused" but expired.

No corruption, just client downloads new WUs while dumping old one.
That is due to windows being super aggressive in shutting things down

Re: How to restructure multiple users from V7 to V8

Please make sure to pause any folding before system restart to not lose any work

Re: WU stuck or "Paused" but expired.

If you are using Windows, before you reboot windows, make sure you pause all your folding on that PC. Then restart the PC.
Linux has no issue there.
Don't worry about that stuck WU anymore. It is what it is

Re: Passkeys/Generating Passkeys

If you folded WUs under anonymous, it will be counted for that username. If you change your username, any following WUs will count to new username. If you change the team, old ones stay where they are, new ones will be counted for your new team

Re: 18224 will not make the timeout (Radeon 780M)

Yes. It is on 12705. I had thought you said the species constraints had been adjusted, but maybe something slipped through the cracks. Yeah, constraints for 12705 have issues. That sucks. Please tell me when the issues have been resolved so I can re-enable beta. 12705 should be fixed now
