My top machine broke the 60000 Rac barrier, it's a worlds first record. Keep it up s@h staff. Nice work getting the servers to work. //Vyper _________________________________________________________________________ Addicted to SETI crunching! Founder of GPU Users Group ID: 921693 ·

I forgot to post my milestone for this month. Sometime over the past week, was my 5th anniversary of going BOINC. I remember seeing a link on the old Classic SETI forum announcing a new way of crunching SETI. I clicked the link, downloaded BOINC, installed it and have not looked back since. I'm looking forward to the next 5 years with BOINC. WOOHOO!!!! Keep on BOINCing....! :) CAPT Siran d'Vel'nahr - L L & P _\\// Winders 11 OS? "What a piece of junk!" - L.

Thanks to Nvidia for rt2.3 and to all the hard working folks who got Cuda to this level! Very impressive guys. applauds Now if we could just get boinc to list mixed cards properly..lol Host says 260x2 on stats page; but actually running 1x260+1x9800GTX 4200+ "The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not Eureka!

I hope.. That would be awesome, looking forward for what multiple Larrabee's would produce but first luntics people need to make a OpenCL version first if i'm not wrong. Otherwise it would be quite painful to write decent multicpu code (You can't run 64 s@h at the same time on that puppy because the pipes would be utterly saturated). Nice going Sutaru, hope you could break the 60K line too.. Kind regards Vyper _________________________________________________________________________ Addicted to SETI crunching!

I don't have that RAC with 8 rigs running, even with a couple of heavy hitters on board. As for the kitties, we have reached the 34 million mark.....all Seti, and have ascended to the position of #28 worldwide for Seti credits. Our Seti City has reached the #11 spot in the USA. And I reached my 9 year anniversary whilst I was 'on vacation'. Keep 'em crunching, my friends. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." ID: 924458 ·

Nice work Vyper on the killer Cuda cruncher!! Thanks Mark I'm also lucky to inform that the 90000 rac mark has just been broken by my host. horray It's a cruel host indeed. I have some issues though with gpuboard #7 but i have the same error even if oc'ed or not so i'm quite curious why it behaves like that :-/ Regards Vyper _________________________________________________________________________ Addicted to SETI crunching!

Try running the GPU memory tester I referred to here. May be worth making 2 batch files so you can run instances of the app on both GPU7 and GPU8. Mine threw up an error in 500 iterations though I started with 1000. F. ID: 924938 ·
