It's possible to let run the SETIv8 Linux CUDA apps on a Windows (8.1 & 10, x64) OS PC?

(AFAIK, SETIv8 CUDA 6.0 and 7.5 apps are around.)

If, how?

Maybe with help of the BOINC/VirtualBox combi?

Or I would need to make a "Virtual (Linux) Machine" in Windows?

I have no experiences in this area.


BTW.
My GT730 with 347.52 (Windows 8.1 x64) driver can do CUDA 7.0.
A newer driver would help to let run CUDA 7.5 apps?
Which would be the minimum driver?

Or a (which) Linux driver would be needed?


(Currently I prepare an other/new PC with GTX980Ti, Windows 10 Pro x64.)


BTW.
The Linux AstroPulse CUDA or OpenCL apps could be faster in a Linux VB/VM in Windows than the Windows OS/Windows apps combi?


Thanks.

Where did you see CUDA AstroPulse? Code available?

And I doubt anything could be faster under emulator. Though you could setup dual-boot config and boot into native Linux for testing (or crunching if Linux would be faster).

My GT730 with 347.52 (Windows 8.1 x64) driver can do CUDA 7.0.

Today I did some offline testing with Windows stock CUDA apps and GT720 (should be close enough to GT730 IMHO). And for GT720 best app is not CUDA50, but CUDA42. Though did not test anything higher, this can rise doubts if CUDA60 could be faster for this GPU.

We're not gonna fight them. We're gonna transcend them.

Make sure your Virtual Machine software supports 'VGA passthrough' - in other words, makes your GPU available inside the virtual machine. I don't think VirtualBox did that, the last time I looked.

Unless the GPU is visible inside the VM, neither CUDA nor OpenCL applications have a chance of running.

Even if the GPU is visible, you still have to go through the steps of installing GPU driver software inside the VM.
