Does E@h have some "Top GPU" list, like SETi@home or MilkyWay@home had? So we can see the Top (10) GPUs on E@h?
Thanks
I am not aware of one. Maybe someone else has found one.
A little data analysis of the Top 50 list will give you at least a list of "suspects".
:)
For instance if you review the single GPU systems listed.
Rtx 4090 is number one
Rtx 3080 ti is two
Radian Rx 6900 xt is three.
Titan V is five.
Etc.
If you go through the list and divide the # of GPU's into the RAC you can get a guesstimate of the individual GPU RAC. This will allow you to do a rough apples to apples comparison.
Nvidia Tesla V100-SXM2-16GB (16144MB is averaging a little over 3M per GPU.
No multiple GPU system appears to equal the rtx 4090.
The Titan V on the list is still "stabilizing". It has been up and running for maybe a week or so with the new system with current settings that we think will be best. Its RAC is still going up, but slowly. We are interested to see where it ends up.
KLiK- The GPU will only tell part of the story with some of the work right now. The O3 work right now is also very dependent on the CPU even though it also relies on the GPU. Not all projects are so dependent, but this one definitely is.
I do know that about O3, so it is better & fruitful to do the BRPs...it is 1/3 of points, but on my system it gets done 4x times faster then single O3.

So far, I haven't been able to generate more than about 1.1M rac equivalent using Brp7/MeerKat vs. 2M+ under O3. This has been under Linux so it may not be an apples to apples comparison when your running Windows.

Right now I am thinking between getting Titan V & water cooled RTX 3070...same money!
What do you guys (& girls, if there is some here)?
The HBM2 vram of the Titan V is superior to the DDR memory of the 3070 for gpu work. So much faster memory bandwidth. We were able to get a Titan V a little while ago and are nothing but impressed.

Water cooling could fail more easily than Air Cooled. And probably is harder to fix. So my bias has pretty much been Air Cooled.
If you can squeeze out the money I would go for an Rtx 3080 ti instead of an Rtx 3070.
The Titan V is especially good on the GpuGrid project because of its higher memory bandwidth.
The Titan V costs less electricity to run than the Rtx 3080 ti for the same level of production.

How many tasks are you running on your Gpu's at a time?
I would certainly experiment. Depending on the GPU ram size as well as the speed of the card you may be able to gain total production.
The O3 might gain production at up to 5x tasks for a 12MB card Don't run more than 90% memory.
The Brp7 might gain production at up to 3x tasks. It doesn't seem to gain anything past 3x unless you have a lot faster GPU than I do.
I am assuming you know where the Boinc folder is under the hidden Program-Data folder of Windows.

Klik: I also noticed you are only running windows systems. If you plan on a new gpu, I would really suggest setting up a linux system. If you have never used linux, just let us know- people here will be happy to help. It's not difficult at all and very user friendly.
If you want to stick with windows, then O3 work is not ideal since it is only opencl on windows. You can get more than 3x production with a linux system (same gpu) since it has a cuda version of the application. You can see this in our devices, if interested (they are running rtx a4500 gpus)
If you want to run MeerKAT, then there is a windows cuda application available.
I have been using water cooling on all of my GPUs approx. since 2016.
Of course not on 750Ti + 3070.
NEVER EVER had any failing. There is nothing harder to fix.
No leaks, no pumps fall out.
Everything just beautiful.
There is no way running many many GPUs on air cooling - it kills your hearing aka ears.
The GPUs stay WAY cooler and so live longer.
Haven't had any "broken" GPUs.
Of course this is my privat opinion.

I agree with SFV, my one water cooled system I bought used from a teammate and needed to revamp the cooling system since my Ltr/Hr had gone down only to find out that the reason it had slowed down was because of a partially clogged filter I had installed just for the safe keeping of the CPU water block. It did it's job!
It is all up and running fine as usual after cleaning the water filter. No leaks, no need to replace anything, though I did at first because I didn't know better.
