hello everyone,

i got myself a new 1060 and wanted to start crunching seti@home. now everything is fun and games as long as i use standard WUs (seti v8 8.00 cuda50). however,
when i want to use the SoG ones SSE3_opencl_nv_sog_r3557 boinc event log says that my card doesnt support opencl.

could anyone help me with that cause i assumed that the sog ones would be significantly faster than the standard ones and if i cant use them theres no real point in using my gpu for seti@home i guess. i already reinstalled and updated to latest NV drivers.

thanks in advance

Did you go to the Nvidea site for the driver?
You should use theirs not Micorsoft drivers and you should choose to option of a clean install.

And make sure you turn driver update off in MS - they have had a habit of dumping their driver over the top of the one you have just painstakingly installed :-(
