GPUPI - SuperPI on the GPU


_mat_

Recommended Posts

ran on Titan V this morning. Old version 3.5**s now 2.78*s on 1B and 4m30s to 2m59s on 32b.  saving and upload working fine on 3.3.0.0 for it.

 

thanks for the update. maybe 32b is turning into a more viable option for global points now that its much faster?

Would definitely be one of the hardest GPU categories to give points, right? GTX 1080 Ti at 3000 MHz for over 4 minutes anyone? :)

Was going to see how the new one tested on CPU got this.

It just stops when compiling the kernels. Well, that's bad. Please try this beta version of 3.3.3 that adds a lot of detailled debug log messages to the initialization of CUDA and OpenCL:

Please post the contents of the debug log, thank you!

Sorry Matt but this new version is ridicilous in performance... 5200 beating 6900MHz, nothing to do with tweaking OS, finding right CL driver...  You provided the boost for them

 

If it was me this version could not be used on anyhting older than e.g. Kaby/Skylake X or 10 series nVIDIA GPUs

 

Those that benefit won't complain, those which LN2 scores get beaten by  air setups have a valid point for removal...

 

Like Allen said maybe we need to move up a step and go for the heavier calculations.

110pts with 5200MHz 7700K, seems it's good :P

What does it prove in the sense of your overclocking capabilities?

 

I would urge everybody to stop benching the new version till the HWBOT team sorts out a viable solution for the usage of the new optimized version!!

I remeber not but a year or so ago I was required by the mods to prove my out of line efficiency in r15.... I was using a newly released version that scored better. Same thing happens with xtu. 

The people that this caters to is the people that are actively benching. Imo that's the people that matter. 

Just my opinions

I have to agree.

GPUPI is no different.

Sorry, but that's the way it goes.

Consistency is still going to be a problem at HWB?

It is simple, just rebench the 6.9GHz CPU and done.

Those who want to stay on top must rebench stuff regularly anyway. For example in 3D with every new 115x platform launch rebench of all 3dmarks up to 06... and new HEDT = rebench of Vantage and later.

You assume everybody still has their gem CPUs. It is not only about latest generation processors,

Anyway your reference to the 3Dmarks is not valid as you just add more CPU horsepower to the benchmark. The 3Dmark06 or Vantage algorythm doesn't change here. Which is the case here, GPU PI has drastically been altered and is not the same benchmark it was before. If  Futuremark releases a version which boosts a 30% increase I wonder if you would just enjoy people beating your LN2 scores running stock GPUs.

 

At the moment removing all points scores for 2D one by one... and deleting. We will set up with Matt a new benchmark for this. But these scores will not be compared with the old ones, all 3.3s will be deleted!!

2 GPUPI benches is ridiculous.

Nobody will ever bench the old one again with the newer, easier one out.

It will be a dead bench.

This... Old versions are dead since 3.3 was launched... Except you make 3.2 mandatory (Which will leave new HW users without support), everybody will prefer to bench 3.3

Both, I quickly tested 3.2 versus the new one, sorry this is a no go

Can you please explain your plan then? If 3.2 and older is one category and 3.3 is a new category will both earn global points or just one?

I guess if you must seperate them out, then have 3.3 with globals and hardware, then 3.2 older only hardware points. Everyone will bench 3.3+ from now on anyways.

I already talked to Matt today and this version will probably be called GPUPi4 and we will have to decide on other benchmarks for it. 

 

Let it be clear that I will not let this benchmark version interfere with scores of previous versions, not on my watch. Whatever happened in the past does not interest me at al.

After some testing and debating I decided that these boosted algorythm scores will not be included in any current GPUPI ranking. Hate me for it, I don't care. The created stir just proves again that people just prefer easy points and not a challenge.

 

@bigblock990You can bench whatever version you like, but till now only 3.2 or below will give you globals and hardware points. 3.3 will only give you pleasure and nothing in return at the Bot, untill a new benchmark is introduced.

At least people will still benefit from their hard work done in the past, which is completely eradicated by this new version...  Stuff has been handled wrongly in the past, this time it might be my time to make the mistake, yet carry full repsonsability.

Version 3.2 will still be used for 100M and 1B for CPU / 32B for GPU. Nothing more and nothing less!

This sounds ok. But when will the new one get points rev 8? I may be in the grave when that is released. 

In regards to mat i hope he doesnt take this as disrespect by hwbot. He has made probably the most secure benchmark on hwbot and continues to improve it for no personal gain. Hope to see the new version get treated well and not become black hole bench 2.0 bottom of the list to die.

We should go out of our way to ensure that the developers of benchmarks like GPUPI are even more valued than our scores... Furthermore, if you happen to be a really gifted developer, not socially retarded and you are community centered well - hwbot should make a little statue out of gold in mat's likeness and consider making him part of the logo or <insert some creative idea here since mine sucks>.

I don't get the problem with everyone having to rebench - go look at #1 for the apprentice league. That guy (no disrespect to him and certainly he hasn't done anything wrong) is going to be #1 for ever with no chance of anyone ever catching up to him. He doesn't even need to compete in any of the competitive challenges. I don't get how someone just has to run 3dmark 03, 05 and 06 with different video cards to maintain supremacy of an entire league. It seems some periodic rebenching helps solve problems like this.

I will be the first to admit that I'm relatively new here and I may just not understand how the rankings work but god knows I've tried to understand the formula but am more confused than ever with the new revision. It feels like I'm actually competing in three different leagues with different rules. I can be 90th in USA, 60th in the world and 79th in my league. I'm always a little baffled when I look at the Elite league and the #1 person isn't ranked #1 in the world. Anyways, probably not staying on topic now so anywhoodles...
