1) Questions and Answers : Windows : New Nvidia 3080 graphic card showing 0% GPU use (Message 1481)

Yeah, seems this GPU app is highly inefficient. Shame too as so much more work could be done if the app was optimized to use more GPUs and their power.

Thanks for the response and explanation.

Someone mentioned a GPU app coming? How soon?

For me these new "rand_automata" work units are running about 5.5 times as long as the "ParityModified" work units (around 39,500 seconds vs around 7,500 seconds).

So wondering (as none of mine have validated yet) if the credits are to be increased for the longer run time?

Thanks

I joined this project with 1pc PC to test to contribute to my team and BOINC Mgr says it's in maintenance. Glad I didn't add my other bigger machines yet. So I come here on this forum and see this. So you get less credits than the old WUs, but the WUs take way longer? That's just messed up and pretty stupid IMO. I guess I'll move on to another project that pays properly.
