Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
Hi Neil,
"Still taking 508 seconds"? Your Collatz results page shows them taking between 1000 and 1030 previously?
Did you say before that you were running two tasks at a time?
Try renaming your app_config.sys file and re-reading config files to run one at a time.

Same procedure for your 1060 but different numbers:1350 seconds down to ~700 seconds - https://boinc.thesonntags.com/collatz/r ... e=4&appid=Code: Select all
verbose=1 kernels_per_reduction=48 threads=8 lut_size=16 sieve_size=30 sleep=1 cache_sieve=1 reduce_cpu=0
About 30% less credits for each task but ~400/200% more tasks in the same time. The GPUs do run slightly hotter though but that's not usually a problem.

Hi
Been lurking, forgot all about these changes so I've done this for my 1060's - times reduced from 1900 secs to 900 secs, credits also dropped but not by much. Thanks for the reminder!
Does help when you have one of the fans going the right way as well! I was wondering why one of the cards was up at 87 degrees - turned a case fan round and now both happy at 82 degrees on full load.

Hi Mikee,
Oh yes, the credits drop but by a lot less than the times do.
You're supposed to fit fans?!

Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
so i reset project and now have 0.996 CPU and 1 Nvidia GPU processing a WU in 7 mins 57 secs. how is this guy doing the WU in 250 odd seconds?
Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
ok so after a bit of tweaking various parameters in the config file, reducing some, increasing others. i have also tweaked the card. now running a GPU core clock @ 1936MhZ from 1550Mhz. processing time is down to 233 seconds. GPU load @ 100% and temps @ 71C .
Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
Sorry Neil, i was out last night. Glad you got it working though
Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?

yes, fairly flying through the WUs now. 27 - 29K per WU. I am chasing you my friend. just wait until i get that second 1080ti on the go

Hi Mark
Can I have first dibs on any 900 series cards you might be decommissioning ? (I really cannot afford any 10xx series cards for now).

No problem
I'll warn you now though, they've been running virtually continuously for a few years?
Prices should be coming down a bit now that the mining phase has finished and new 20 series are out.

Hi Mark
So, they'll be really cheap then
...and I can hoover out any accumulated dust/cat hairs etc

Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
Hi Tim,
I could call them i970s and sell them for £1,000!
Mark
Oh no, they'll be "pre-conditioned" and "run in" so you'll pay a premium
You pay more for "extra features"UBT - Timbo wrote: ↑Tue Oct 02, 2018 6:08 pm...and I can hoover out any accumulated dust/cat hairs etc

Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
My PC is dead at the moment so I can't check for sure, but I'm sure I used to run Collatz in the past. Didn't they have some bother with people cheating? Or am I getting that mixed up with something else? (senior moments R us)...
Anyway, I am sure I've got a 1070 in there, so if someone can point me in the right direction for configuring that I'll take a look when my machine is mended.
I generally run it 24/7 but it'd been shut down for a week while I was on holiday and decided not to work when I got back. It looks like the SSD or it's mobo connection has died, as it has disappeared. Fortunately it's still under warranty and I'm dropping it off at the menders today. I've got all my important stuff backed up but it'll be a bit of a pain putting everything else back if it needs a clean install, which seems likely.

Re: Will UBT get to 1 TRILLION credits?
Check back in previous posts in this thread. there are some .config files for 10 series Nvidia cards. Might need some slight tweaking.Jeffers wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 10:01 am My PC is dead at the moment so I can't check for sure, but I'm sure I used to run Collatz in the past.

Hi Jeff,
Basically, a user had spoofed the response files to the project so that they claimed he was returning valid tasks in only three seconds and claiming credit for much longer. Slicker has subsequently changed the work that's sent out and the replies expected back so that it doesn't happen now.
Try here - http://www.ukboincteam.org.uk/newforum/ ... =93&t=6001 or more specifically here -

You remember correctly. Unfortunately, as part of the fix Slicker had to take down the website and rebuild it so there's no thread about it any more.

Hi Mark
OK, so you are trying to tap into the "vintage" and "aged" market then ? I think that only works for old masters, the odd horselesss carriage and some wines...
And I don't think anyone would fall for an iVan iGogh, an i250 iDino or a nice bottle of iChateau iLafite
