Well that may be a bug that I can forward to development, but for that I need the BOINC version you're using. BOINC does read that value directly from the OpenCL driver, so if you still think that's wrong, complain at AMD.Īnd lastly, the size of the memory.

It isn't CAL, so that makes it the correct driver version. And thus, the driver version that you see is only OpenCL. So you can understand that it has trouble properly detecting the GPU when all you have is the OpenCL driver. AMD has deprecated support for this on the newer videocards, so you don't show the line that shows the CAL detection (needed for for instance Primegrid).īOINC uses the CAL detection method for detecting what kind of GPU it is, since this information is not in the OpenCL drivers. The problem here is that your GPU no longer supports CAL, the old ATI method of doing calculations on the GPU. Is the incorrect detection only a BOINC client issue? Or does it also require a server-side update for a correct detection?Īre there plans that BOINC will detect and use this GPU anytime in the future? (just as an example) correctly detects and uses the R290. The R290 is not so new that it's impossible to detect it correctly.

I do not get AMD GPU tasks from any of these projects. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 (3072MB) driver: 33221, CAL Hawaii (3072MB)Īll these projects are unable to display a driver version. 18:06:14 | | OpenCL CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4930K CPU 3.40GHz (OpenCL driver vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., driver version 1445.5 (sse2,avx), device version OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP (1445.5))Īs a result projects show incorrect information for this host.
