And we have a bit of AP on the barbi for Christmas! Tidings of joy! Guy, something's wrong, try another driver for that 650 TI. Another Fred Support SETI@home when you search the Web with GoodSearch or shop online with GoodShop. |

Yes, if you put 1 for gpu_usage you will run one, .5 will run two, and .33 will run three and so on. If you put 1 for cpu_usage it will spar a cpu to run the astro gpu app. Just like someone is doing manually with his compute preferences, and then when astropulse is done his cpu cores he reserved sit idle... Pay attention to the section names... edit any "bold" forum "/b" text if it appears. |

And we have a bit of AP on the barbi for Christmas! I put my hand out and for the first time i didn't get hand full of crap:D How do you specify if you only want astropulse on the gpu's? I could edit out the MB apps from the app_info.xml file. then i should only request astopulse for the gpu's... |

Guy, the GTX650Ti does in fact support OpenCL 1.01 so your problem is very likely software related to that rig. Cheers. |

my guess it is a bonic issue, nothing wrong with the drivers. but don't worry as there are no opencl apps for nvidia cards i believe. |

Guy Just a suggestion, have you tried Geforce Experience. It will analyze your system and download the most recent driver for your card. I used it on mine and I'm running 4 GTX 650 Ti Boost with the opencl. Hope it helps |

BTW. Always if I go up or down with the NV drivers, I uninstall the driver first, before I install an other driver. Additional I use CCleaner to delete old NV files (for complete uninstallation). * Best regards! :-) * Philip J.

Im running 320.49 drivers with open CL 101 on both of my 550 Ti GPU's. Here is the file that Richard Haselgrove kindly made for me to use. It does two MB at a time. And one AP and one MB, He wasnt sure if a 550 Ti could handle two AP's at once. And I wasnt about to see if I could. So here is his code. <app_config> <app> <name>astropulse_v6</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>.51</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>.67</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> <app> <name>setiathome_v7</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>.49</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>.04</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> </app_config> [/quote] Old James |

if I set my 650ti to do two MBs at a time, it'll do twice the work at half the speed, so I would imagine the same would apply with APs also. GPU-Z says the difference is 96% GPU load with one MB and 99% GPU load with two MBs. So, not much difference really. Dont count on those 4%. When a 450 non ti benefits running 2 instances a 650ti would probably benefit running 3. You need to run it for a couple weeks to see the difference. My friend got 7K RAC on his slower dual core with a 450. Just try it. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Just an info. On the 660/670, 2WU is better than 3, i belive in the 650Ti must be the same. Of course YMMV. |
