1) Message boards : Number crunching : Regular GPU or Mining-designed GPU (Message 1876404) Posted 2 Jul 2017 by Pakal Post: In past days grown in my mind this question. A GPU mining-designed would have better performance than a regular GPU? This doubt is feeded by articles where says the some graphics chips are improved to get more efficiency with coin-mining's algorithm (maybe some BOINC-based projects will works better). Thanks for read me. Cheers!

2) Message boards : Number crunching : SETI@HOME v8.22 (Message 1844286) Posted 25 Jan 2017 by Pakal Post: I downloaded some tasks one minute ago (8.22 opencl_ati5_nocal) and the first task is running fine. Also I wish the all another WUs will works fine. Thanks for response, cheers!

3) Message boards : Number crunching : SETI@HOME v8.22 (Message 1844216) Posted 24 Jan 2017 by Pakal Post: I received 40 tasks (8.22 opencl_ati5_SoG_nocal) at January 21. The tasks don't get aborted automatically, I had to abort it manually today when I found out this. Greetings from Mexico. (I apologize for my bad english).

4) Questions and Answers : GPU applications : Radeon and Nvidia at the same time? (Message 1791942) Posted 30 May 2016 by Pakal Post: Thanks you all for response. Angeless: Originally I thought switch the GPU in the BIOS (fool idea) to use APU's GPU or to use Nvidia GPU. But, is good idea to try use a dummy VGA to use both GPUs. AMDave: I read that a volunteer wrote that was computing with AMD and Nvidia at same time and that excites me. This is a medium-term plan, so in the future I will share the process of instalation and configuration, and results with the comunity (if someone want to try it too). Now I know how to start this experiment. ^_^ Cheers for you all!

5) Questions and Answers : GPU applications : Radeon and Nvidia at the same time? (Message 1791658) Posted 29 May 2016 by Pakal Post: Hi! I have a PC with this features: CPU: AMD A10 7700K GPU: R7 Spectre (BOINC Manager says it). Motherboard: Gigabyte F2A88XM-HD3 RAM: 16 GB @ 1333MHz OS: Windows 7 Professional x64 And I'm curious to add a Nvidia GPU (GT 210 or GT610 or GTX 750 Ti) to compute WUs with both graphics cards at the same time. It is possible? Someone was did it? Or something similar? If is not possible I will add a R7 240 to increase up my contribution. Thanks for read me, and I'm so sorry for my bad english. Cheers!
