Or is this a single box RAC achievement you're after The honor is always in the single box performance. What else would be the point of building multi-GPU machines ? :-) |

@martin's lighthouse: No, I haven't seen them anywhere except in a couple of reviews. A picture in the Guru3D review shows the card in a better profile (for my limited eyesight.) You are correct, the card looks much too wide for even a side-by-side setup, let alone a 4x configuration, in a standard case. OTOH, the TechPowerUp review called the design dual-slot. I think "dual-slot+" would have been a better description. Martin |

according to novatech the size of the mars edition is the same as a standard 295, and as they sell both i would hope they are correct... Card Dimensions 10.5" (L) x 3.75" (W) x 1.5" (H) listed for both mars edition and standard single pcb asus 295. Could well be wrong though! |

if you read everything it looks like a memory access/address error though I'm not sure what your post has to do with 4x 295 Cuda cards in one box. In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

Yes, it is a common error/bug when you use a 64bit OS. Restarting the client usually frees up the memory. Strangely, it mostly happens on tuesday after the outage. But yes... off topic.. |

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=1365282248 Boinc 6.6.36 will switch tasks witout freeing up GPU memory, so when you get a task that gets pre-empted, CPU fallback mode will happen, and each Cuda WU after the pre-empted WU will also run in CPU fallback mode, untill you restart Boinc, Or if you install Boinc 6.6.37, which fixes this issue.
