mitch_de Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 893 Gigaflops (81920 stars) You can try to set even more stars (run much slower but more Gigaflops on very fast cards possible). You used 81920 , you can try 262144 star count also. Not recommended for slow / low end gpus - may stall OpenGL output / run out of VRAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkanis Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 For me OpenCL is not working and my card is not being recognized either as an OpenCL device... I have a Quadro 5000 and it's working pretty well OOB, tried to find the hex string to patch it under ML, but the string has changed, so I don't know where to patch the file.

I didnt have to patch anything under ML for OpenCL - it just worked (GTX570) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eep357 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Managed to get 10 Gflops more in ML (863) vs Lion (853), GPU settings/framebuffer same on both, ML on SSD while Lion install fills more than half of 2x1TB HDs in RAID-0, and a lot more stuff running in background/startup on Lion might explain the difference.

shatterhenner Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 hi mitch, bekomme irgendwie die Galaxis nicht zum laufen...anhand der screenshots steh rechts unten das Grafik device...bei mir nur einfach oder Multi cpus kanns du mir helfen?!

mitch_de Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Nun, Galaxies startet gleich im GPU Mode, also SIM: Grafikkartennamen. Mit key s kann man in den CPU mode umschalten. Wenn Galaxies nicht im GPU Mode startet sondern im CPU MODE, dann klappt was mit OpenCL bei dir nicht. Funzen denn die anderen OpenCL Benches (Luxmark2 oder OpenCLWeave)? galaxies starts up in gpu mode by default. If galaxies starts up in an cpu mode (single/multi thread) then something is wrong with the OpenCL device gpu. Try other OpenCL Benches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shatterhenner Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 thanx mitch, luxmark2 and openclwave is running perfectly without any problems!!! no red lines in log!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 PS: Have you tried to switch with key s between Cpu single / cpu multi and gpu ? What happens ? Never gpu shown as device ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shatterhenner Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 yeah, i tried that, switching between single & multicpus is working...next switch galaxies quits unexpected!!!! logfile is in your pm box...thanx mitch!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertX Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 yeah, i tried that, switching between single & multicpus is working...next switch galaxies quits unexpected!!!! logfile is in your pm box...thanx mitch!!! ...same problem here after updating to 10.7.3 (Zotac GT 520) doesn't load the gpu sim only gt 520 + cpu (single -multi) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 Try an new BUILD compiled under 10.7 / BUILD for 10.7. For me both BUILDS working 10.7.3 + 10.7.4 : this test build today and the other (10.7+10.8) from first page on Nvidia 9600 GT - and getting same GigaFlops (138). Dont use command line 80K Stars! Simple start galxies without changing star cont , so it can use 65K (default)! May even also not work on some GPUs. Dont worry, until other OpenCL Benches like Luxmark 2.0 or OpenCL_Oceanwave work on your GPU. Galaxies_BUILD_10.7.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertX Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 damn...found my problem...a bad edit in geforcegldriverbundle... fixed after reading this: in 10.7.3 there is a change in the GeForceGLDriver... see below From Netkas Thread: Find EB A8 83 F8 02 7C 15 replace 02 with 03 to get EB A8 83 F8 03 7C 15 Find 78 E8 83 F8 02 7C 11 replace 02 with 03 to get 78 E8 83 F8 03 7C 11 i didn't do the edit in bold...(in HexEdit) ...seems all good now...my bad...( i only get 60-65 gigaflops with my GeForce GT 520) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 Good to hear you get your fermi lowend GT 520 cardto work. 9600 GT gets 131 (10.7.3 and 10.7.4) What result with Luxmark 2.0 in the small Luxball Scene ? i get around 740 (and 74 in the middle complex scene, 25 very complex scene) http://www.luxrender...uxMark#Download Oceanwave (attached) gets around 90 FPS. All results for Nvidia 9600 GT. Fermi gpu type doesnt mean its always faster than the old non fermi types. For example the GTX 680 is great in OpenGL but very bad in OpenCL speed compared to GTX 580. GTX 680 plays in OpenCL region of GTX 460-GTX 470. Upcoming GTX 690 is much faster in OpenCL (ok, it has 2 OpenCL gpus on the card ) OpenCL_OceanWave_32Bit.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
