I feel that guys shouldn't complain about the speedup. Just dust off your hardware and rebench if needed. This is much better than if the new version is slower, so you can't beat old records.
It doesn't really affect me as I've got most of the hardware I've run gpupi on, but it never feels great beating others because the software has got better, nothing to do with you, also nullifies their hard work no?
In the end I'll go along with whatever, just pointing out this sounds like a problem to me, and I was unaware you got crazy jumps with xtu, thought it was purely new generations do much better, not that the same hardware does much better.
Also @_mat_ I'm confused, so which version is being released, the one that's significantly faster or only 200ms faster?

That basically would nullify any results made previously the difference is so big no?

It's great that it makes things easier for you etc, but does ruin any work people have already put in to benching it

Great work as always, that SS been working hard recently!

Yes and I don't like it as well. I don't know why NVIDIA decided to go that way, but I hope that there's a good reason for it.
I could compile a CUDA 8 version of GPUPI 3.x of course, but then I have to maintain 3 different versions in the future. I don't think that's a good solution at all as people are already confused with the Legacy Version.
That's fair enough, might be worth a note on the benchmark download page/FAQ section though? I had a quick look before I posted here but didn't see anything about it.

You start sponsoring my LN2 and sure thing :D

You have to install the latest GeForce drivers.
You can verify this by opening the debug log (Menu: Tools => Debug Log), there will be an error that states, that your driver is not ready for CUDA 9.x.
As an alternative you can use the Legacy Version of GPUPI. It's compatible with older GeForce driver versions, but will most certainly perform worse.
Ah so you need to use the legacy version to get cuda 8 to work? (seemingly drivers with cuda 9 cause my os to freeze/lag/crash when going below -60 so can't use them)
-
Just wondering how to get 3.2 to use cuda? Installed drivers that should have cuda, and gpu-z says cuda, but gpupi only has opencl 1 device (using a gtx980 on W7 or W8.1)

Thanks, not sure when I'll next be getting LN2, feeding this thing is expensive

You can up the voltage quite a bit. Not sure about non-ti, but for 980ti 1.65V was considered very safe. Most cards scaled to at least 1.75V. Some cards benched 1.8V...
Yeah, I've read KP's 980ti guide, but as you say I wasn't sure on 980 vs ti, didn't want to risk bricking it before I'd managed to get anything remotely decent so played it safe.
Might try some 03 this evening if I get a working Win7 again
(and I may have another go at this at the same time)

I believe this chip was sold last week

Knew you'd get there, new bench PBs all round

Nice score mate?
Thanks, so it was drivers causing all of my issues the other day!
Next time I'll try to get CUDA to work in gpupi as it seems to be quicker.

Nice score but missing the result? :D

I thought things may have been finished as suddenly my rank etc seemed more in line to what it was before the update.
Glad to see things are back up and running
-
Also to update this thread, got a 980 hof which seems to work fine with the software I've got, so guessing the 980ti is damaged somehow?
-
Maybe @richba5tard can comment on that

There's been a bonus on the top3/5 for a while, just if people ranked the same they'd all be given the bonus type thing as far as I'm aware, whereas now things have changed to try and avoid issues with hundreds of people getting '1st' and reaping the high points associated with it. Gaming the system so to speak.
Not an official view but that's my thinking

then they changed it or its another bug

Ranks are done by submission date I believe.

That's my understanding as well, looks to be rightish to me (assuming global is top5 and hw is top3)

Thanks, plenty more to come hopefully.
