GPU2 client for NVIDIA

Please go to our forum (http://foldingforum.org) for up to the second details of the new client.  I'll make a post here when there is more to say.


GPU2 beta client for NVIDIA now released

We've started our open beta release.  See the post here
http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=3188
We will put it on our main download page when it gets a bit further through the beta QA process.  This is an early release.

Note that this is still a very early beta and there's lots to fix.  In particular, we need to correct some issues with the visualization and the EUE handling.  However, we've got that in our roadmap and should be rolling that out over the next few weeks or so (hopefully sooner, but it may be longer depending on how tricky these bugs are to handle).

If this release looks to run well for most people, we'll put it on our main download page.

大意：
发布NVIDIA GPU2 beta版客户端，由于现在客户端仍不稳定，所以等运行一段时间没有什么大问题后，我们会把客户端下载地址加入下载页面。

Forum under a heavy load

Due to the new GPU2/NVIDIA client release today, we got cited on Digg, which sent all the traffic to the forum (which can't take too heavy of a load), instead of say http://folding.stanford.edu (which can).  We're working
with our forum Internet service provider to work this out ASAP.



GPU2 client 6.12beta6 on high performance client download page

Since the GPU2 client 6.12beta6 is behaving well, we've put it on our main download page:

http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther

We'll post updates there as they work their way through QA.

大意：
官方论坛访问压力大增。

因为GPU2 6.12beta6版客户端（支持A、N卡）运行状况良好，现已加入官方下载页面中。

译者注：官方推荐N卡用户使用174.55版驱动。

GPU2/NVIDIA auto-core upgrade

We've forced a core upgrade to version 1.05 for GPU2/NVIDIA.  We did this since there is important new code there.  In particular, there's code that will better handle unstable or incorrectly configured machines.  This core now generates an UNSTABLE_MACHINE error and the 6.12beta6 client will trap this error, leading to a 24 hour sleep for the client if 5 such UNSTABLE_MACHINE errors are reached.

If you are having problems running your client after this forced core upgrade, it most likely means that there's a problem with the client installation, most likely with startup aliases.  If this is the case, please check out the FAQ and in particular note that the Start In and Target directories have to be different:

In Windows XP:
Target: "C:\Program Files\Folding@home\Folding@home-gpu\Folding@home.exe" -verbosity 9
(or whatever flags you use instead of -verbosity 9)
Start in: "C:\Documents and Settings\<your_windows_username>\Application Data\Folding@home-gpu\"

In Windows Vista:
Target: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Folding@home\Folding@home-gpu\Folding@home.exe" -verbosity 9
(or whatever flags you use instead of -verbosity 9)
Start in: "C:\Users\<your_windows_username>\AppData\Roaming\Folding@home-gpu\"

Please see our FAQ for more details:

GPU2/NVIDIA计算内核自动升级

GPU2/NVIDIA计算内核将自动升级至1.05，改进了稳定性和兼容性。如果计算出错，内核将会报UNSTABLE_MACHINE错误。当错误数达到5个，客户端会停工24小时。

如果你遇到停工，那么意味着您的机器安装配置有问题。详见官方FAQ。

原來我被停了= =

sakeki

停了？算错5次？

shouldbe

我昨天超频shader到2100以上，停工了。后来降到2000，就正常了

rexts217

我也是升到2104=

sakeki

你们不要太强了，等等我……

rexts217

降到2050後終於回復正常

shouldbe

我只是试验几天。我会密切关注核心的温度。如果核心温度有明显的上升，一定会降频。以免Q6600的悲剧再次发生。

我將我隻9800個個風扇set到80%
依家全速都只有72℃

9800GTX 4+2的供电，上800/2000长期没问题
88GTS512 3+1的供电，核心电压也低750/1830差不多了。。。

可惜9800GTX不是我的，88GTS反厂换新中。。
现在只能用8500来算

sakeki

为何返厂呢？
