Trouble with big GPU crunchers they run out of work quicker.
Gaps closing LOL

Thank's RottenMutt.
I will, but with 480's on there way up it might be short lived.

there is a limit to how well work units can be multi-threaded, the key to the 480 maybe running more then one work unit per gpu. and then there is the fermi code maturity, i would watch a couple of other users before i dropped those bad boys in.

don't you wish there was a tool (code) to transfer work units between computers. so how much for a few thousand?!?!

I think that running more than one WU on a Fermi was tested, with poor results. Of course things may change with the release of the 3.1 SDK. I don't know anything about the timing of this though.

I'd totally send out free WU's if people would do the same favor back when i ran out of work. :P Currently i have about 80 CPU WU's in my cache and about 25 GPU left. Hopefully i'll pick up some more GPU ones shortly.

Be careful approaching 1800VA... that's the typical USA home circuit breaker size for 1 room.

Has not caused me any problems and I live in an apartment.
This is the unit I have, actually have 2 of them:
Ultra Universal Power Supply 2000VA/1200W
1 is for my computer and the other is for my Kenwood TS2000.

Only 4 Cuda WU's left and about 160 CPU WU's. :( GPU is gonna be idle again. RottenMutt, you should totally go and put a new tape in to the splitters. (Somehow) =D

Hellsheep,
You do know you can move non-VLAR tasks from the CPU to the GPU using the rescheduler don't you?

I knew about it, i keep trying but it never moves any? Could you please provide some assistance on how to run it properly? When i first started it, it moved 19 WU's to the GPU instead of CPU and moves a few GPU VLARs to the CPU. Do i untick "Only VLAR and VLAH to the CPU" and set the X amount for less than GPU and CPU?1

Also, what are safe levels of numbers to have? Should i just leave the default numbers to start with and play around if i have troubles?

Yes, untick both boxes on the settings page then you can move the slider on the main page to whatever % you want on the GPU. Even if you move the slider to 100% it will not move VLARs back to the GPU so no worries there. Once you've moved however many you want to the GPU, go back and re-tick that Only VLAR and VHAR box. With that box checked the rescheduler will only move VLARs to the CPU and not bother anything else. The slider grays out.

Thank you for that. :) Works great, now that i actually know how to use the thing properly. :P

Thank you! I was wondering how to do that myself. If I have to drain my cache, that will definitly make things go much faster.
