I want to ask..
I have RTX5080 and I don't get any work for GPU at all.
On the other computer I get work normally for CPU and GPU (RTX2080ti),
what causes the project server to not send any work for my 5080, the application is not optimized for Blackwall? Or even can't recognize this architecture at all??
This has been going on for several months now. I actually don't know if my RTX5080 ever worked on asteroids xD xD

The official app isn’t compiled with Blackwell support, but you can use a custom build instead

I’ve been reaching out to the admins to release it, but haven’t had any luck so far...

Yeah, but that's for Linux, I have Win11 :((
This is quite a problem,
isn't it a shame that the project is losing more computing power this way? And it's been a long time since this architecture came out and no one has done it until now.

Salut, j'ai aussi une rtx 5080, effectivement cela ne fonctionne pas, c'est débile.

4/ finish / cancel running WUs
5/ restart boinc & allow work
