Posted 27 Oct 2011 by Ray_GTI-R Post: OK - yes, running that GPU as noted. 1st GPU task just completed scored 12 (points?) more than the CPU task and finished (run time) in 29% of the time that the CPU task took. BUT! Look at the CPU time of both tasks ... 83% on the GPU task vs CPU task. Also - the GPU task robbed a >>>TON<<< of CPU resource when running as a single task. I don't get this with other GPU projects e.g., Collatz. (SETI Lunatics is being re-evaluated since the last time I used it - then it caused multiple high CPU temps on the same PC/different fan layout.) I think there is a fundamental fault running ATI/AMD GPU tasks that e.g., the Collatz team etc could share with us mere mortals. Ray FWIW I run my PC for lots of real-life stuff whilst also running BOINC. |

Posted 26 Oct 2011 by Ray_GTI-R Post: I'm here - in that time mentioned by Dingo. I now have 76 credits for 1 task ... 6.45 hours of Run Time / 2.05 hours of CPU time. Would like better value for my electricity :-( |
