Will do.....


Thanks for looking....

No, no, no... You don't need to do any of that. No need in going faster and catch up to me.
...wait no our team is about to be passed in 7 days! Full speed ahead!!!

My 6870 didn't seem to do much better when running 2 vs 1, but that was back on AP v5.05.




LOL!!!!!!
I need a fleet to catch you brother.....
When my son goes to college this fall I will use his 6870 to crunch too...:D

I decided to try running 2 WU's at a crack on my GPU again and I dont remember times I got before, I am running a 6950 with the shaders unlocked at 900mhz.
Didnt want to push it too much, the temp is 63, GPU usage is 84-100%, and memory isnt hitting above 350MB out of 2GB.

I am running 2 cores right now, plus the GPU. Will the appinfo below run 2 at once on the GPU??

And, would it be wise to do the same with AP??

Are you sure you have not toggled Boinc Manager to show active tasks only?

Check: if the button says 'show all tasks' - then press it and you should see all tasks again.


Thats exactly what happined..... Thank you...

I will try that, I like stream lining.. also, working great so far, had to use /affinity E, wasnt sure if running 2 CPU task's plus the GPU on just 2 cores would work, so using 3 cores right now, working pretty good......


Ninja EDIT:
Forgot to say thanks for all the help........ :D

Thank you...
