i've been crunching for SETI@home since early 2004.
This is the project that always struck an emotional chord
deep within me.

i'm sure there are many other very worthwhile projects
but it won't be the same. i've been reading and watching
science fiction for 55+ years and have wanted to meet ET
for all of those.

This is like losing a family member.

Hello Stephen:

Earlier today i downloaded and installed Afterburner. After installing i looked at tasks
and rather than seeing Running (0.24 CPU's + 1 NVIDIA GPU ) i saw
Running (0.24 CPU's GPU missing )

i uninstalled Afterburner, rebooted. Back to normal. Did i stuff up somewhere ?

Is there a way i can see how much work is being crunched by my GPU vs the CPU ?

i have 16 GB RAM installed, any thoughts on how much performance adding
another 16GB would add ? i can have up to 64GB on this machine.

i just upgraded and now have https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=8656624

up and running. i have a feeling i can get a lot more out of this machine but
have been very busy for the last few years with other things and have
forgotten much i once knew.

If anyone has any suggestions for tweaking for better performance i would be
very happy to hear them. Intel i5 8600k CPU. NVidia GTX 680 card. Gigabyte
Z370 XP SLI MoBo. Case with 5 fans plus a Noctua NH D14 CPU cooler.

i thought i knew how to have the video card run ( at least ) 2 jobs at once
but i seem to have stuffed that up.

$180,000.00 divided by 8 is $22,500.00 per year. That's not
a living wage even down here in south Mississippi. i'm pretty
sure the cost of living in Berkley is considerably higher
than down here.

Being used to windows computers it was at first a bit of
a challenge to get a linux client up and running. First i
got a 32 bit ubuntu application running, then a 64 bit,
now a 64 bit optimized application.

I got a lot of help here http://lunatics.kwsn.net/linux/index.0.html

Stick with it, it gets easier with a bit of practice.
