if you're gonna do it, do it now. You are on, heck the Nvidia 400 series might even be out by then. I better get as far as I can, I can imagine what your next years heaters will be like.... Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! |

I could match you if you want to go cross project. Ha, I'm strictly a credit hound for Seti. Once you start mixing projects the stats get all out of whack. I hear I could do well in Milky Way but I want to see how far I can get in just one. Phud and I have been having friendly competition for awhile although I am always playing catch up. LOL He is just teasing me I will get close and some new card will magically appear just watch. Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! |

I could match you if you want to go cross project. You could use the 285's on Milkyway, but they would still be slower than several ATI cards. I have almost always used ATI card in my machines, I think the only Nvidia card I ever bought was a FX5200. |

after some calculations, i'd say you have a 10-15% chance of passing me. |

I could match you if you want to go cross project. The only Nvidia cards I have ever owned are for Seti. Seems to me ATI got screwed when they were taken over by AMD. Not the same anymore, but if they came out with a Seti App I would get a couple. Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! |

We are still working on a OpenCL app for Astropulse, but it is slow going. Right now ATI has a large lead since Nvdia still does not have the DX-11 cards out. |

Just curious, if you can write one for AP which hardly works anyways...why can't you write one for MB which everyone uses? I have wondered that for a long time. Do they work differently? Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! |

Hi Pete, cause you have to get info about the (ATI) cards, on how to use them. (ATI isn't that helpfull on this.) And how (source-code) to start/work with CAL/BROOK programming language. Then you need a compiler for this. It's easier to make (Compile) an app. for Collatz C (3x+1). Then SETI, Einstein, etc. (One result must finish, before next can continue) (Specially Collatz.C. with works with integers, which fit completely in VIDEO (GDDR5) RAM (single-precision), giving a high load on (Vid)Memory/GPU/Shaders/SIMD's, but not on the PCI_E x 4/8/16 , bus. That why, 1 HD5770, can do so much calculations. In ~8- 12 hours I've reached daily limit,(~100K RAC). But my knowledge of CUDA and CAL (BROOK), is far too little, to expain this, clearly. |

Maybe you need to add a few kinky items to make it look more like a dungeon. ;) |
