I've only got two errors, both -12s. This one is interesting though  http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=770546468  Take a look at the one that did complete it. 23 triplets found??

Sure!   if ||| is one triplet, |||| is 2 triplets, and ||||| is 5 triplets.  Add a few more |'s in the same 'PulsePoT' and you get to 23 pretty quickly, which is bigger than where the nVidia code commits suicide.

I've yet to hear a good explanation of why ET might not think that's a good way to catch our attention, so do want to rewrite that to eliminate the -12s.  It's only relatively recently  that I feel my Cuda experience is getting to the point where I can consider that particular rewrite (among others), so reengineering it to match CPU is on the list, though much lower down than some other issues.

Approach used in OpenCL->CUDA build shold never experience this problem. Maybe it's worth to incorporate it in "pure CUDA" build too.

Yeah, when I rewrite that I'll take yours into consideration & apply the 'max bandwidth' approach that's been working well for me so far as well.  As mentioned I do want that issue gone, and as errors go it's becoming more common as hardware gets faster & the work noiser.

Wow looks like I end up with enough to get the 'big one'.   :)  I'll let everyone know the good news on main & issue thanks as well.

Not unexpected, http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=766762437 which we looked at pretty closely ended with all 5 getting credit. The stock CUDA 6.08 got canonical so was strongly similar to CRUNCH3R's 6.01 CUDA for 64 bit Linux.

Thanks for keeping track of that one.   Yep looks like we need to at least take a look at the gaussians then.  I'm not happy with the outwardly clean looking 6.03 run being marginalised.  While we can discount the legacy Cuda builds' accuracy for a mixed bag of reasons (& the spikes in 6.03 for that matter), and the x38g one for stability & the unexplored gaussfit code, it's going to be the marginal cases that'll show us where to look.   They are going to get stranger I suppose.

X39e's up and running on two 560ti's.  We'll see how she does.

Hi Jason,
I get one -9 resultoverflow resultid=1981104197
SETI@Home Informational message -9 result_overflow
NOTE: The number of results detected exceeds the storage space allocated.

I thought this is solved ?

That's quite Normal, as long as your wingman finds too many signals too,

You were probably thinking of error that happens when there are too many triplets,

x38 was giving me quite a few invalids, thus killing my RAC.  x39 seems to have killed the invalids issues though I'm getting a few errors.  After a few days of run time I'll post what errors I'm getting.

The x39 build also seems to have reduced the frequency of the downclocks I was experiencing.

Jason should I be running a particular driver with the 560's?

According to Martin of Martin's lighthouse...

266.66 is the first release with 560 Ti support.
 

If that's any help.   ::)

The 275.xx drivers should be a little fast at least.

Got another invalid  http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=765094268  I found 11 spikes the other two only found three.

Oh, FYI, I've had a couple of driver restarts so I've cut back just a bit on my over clock. I'm now at 883/1766/1804. I'm also only running two at a time because of running Raistmer's app for the NV AP.

Nothing weird there, just 2 CPU apps with missed spikes due to inaccuracy ganging up on you.  Looks like x39e is going well so far on that one.
