Common issue I think but I keep getting one of my cards (can be either) rev down for 10 mins then when it restarts it returns the above in BM log. I don't wsnt to reset project. Have underclocked core + mem + even have a desktop fan blowing at PC to keep things below (or little over) 80C. AVG avoids folders:+ ident protection off,, did leave a core free but made no dif. Virtually every trick in the book.

You have a link to one of the failed tasks?

Definitely this 1:
http://www.primegrid.com/result.php?resultid=595428852
Jumped between cards so it's not a card or temp (top card is 5~10C warmer than bottom)
Genefer text doc in slot directory reported about 10 maxErrs so far. | |

It just errored out after the 6-retry rule. Guess I was just unlucky. | |

It's hard to say exactly what the problem was, because there's two different types of failures in that log.
The first is a GPU or driver crash. That has an almost infinite number of causes and it's impossible to diagnose remotely. The only way to find out what the cause might be is to systematically start removing possible causes, such as "Don't run this" or "don't do that" or removing one of the video cards, and things along those lines. If you make a change and you stop seeing those "cufft error 6" messages, then you may have found the culprit.
The second set of errors, the maxerr exceeded errors, may be indicative of a GPU/overclocking/overheating problem -- but it might just be a side effect of the earlier GPU/driver crashes. Normally, you see something like "0.500 > 0.450". I don't think I've ever seen "128.000 > 0.4500" before. So my guess is that this problem is caused by the previous crashes.
Figure out what's causing the GPU/driver to crash and both problems may be solved.
