tried to run 2x Meerkat tasks at the same time, but there is no benefit. Reverted back to 1.

What I noticed is the GPU consumes 120-130W crunching Meerkat tasks, while 3x O3A tasks consume around 105W. 4070TiS undervolted to 0.9V @ 2550MHz.

I suspect you will get more total credits from running o3a tasks.

To be more clear, I am talking about multi-GPU chips per physical card.

Examples are:

- nVidia GRIDs: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/?generation=GRID&sort=generation

- some nVidia TESLAs: 

a) https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/tesla-k80.c2616 

b) https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/tesla-m60.c2760

etc.

Just wondering if anybody is using those? & how does BOINC sees those multi-GPU chips? ????‍♂️


 

people have run them before, as with many other kinds of multi-GPU boards.

As far as BOINC is concerned, it treats each GPU core as it's own GPU individually, since that's how the board is really setup. it's just two (or more) GPUs with their own local VRAM on one board and usually with some kind of PCIe bridge on board to expose all devices over a single PCIe link, they aren't hardware linked to work together on a single task/application. it's only the software that would take advantage to use them together in some way.

The multi-gpu GRID and Tesla cards were designed mainly for cloud streaming and VDI applications, not really for heavy compute.

you can use them for BOINC just fine (if the application supports such old GPUs), but they will be seen and N number of GPUs, not a single GPU.

Thank you for your answer. ;)

I need to keep this url  A clear exposition with spec #'s and ways to judge the actual slot width.

How do you enforce Pacific availability when there is a global market?

Another "real" two slot card?

Is that a plug to plugin a network cable on that gpu? I've never seen THAT before!!

not sure where you’re seeing that. None of the pictures show that. Just standard DP and HDMI like most other GPUs.

Maybe Mikey is mistaking the square vent holes on the video card bracket for RJ 47 holes?

Great stuff...love those blower cards, as those extract more air out of the case!

Maybe it is time to consider an upgrade from Quadro RTX... ;)

I certainly haven't seen

I certainly haven't seen those Galax cards here in Australia. Can't see any when I google them so maybe they haven't been released yet?

I've had plenty of blower style cards (Got a faulty Vega 56 sitting right in front of me which is a blower style!) I agree that they are good for removing hot air from the case but they can be a bit noisy at full speed.

Above the DP and HDMI slots is 4 holes, 3 are square and one has what looks like an rj-47 connection
