By a slim margin, your hard working over-clocked GPU cards have finally earned the right to a vacation. That's right, shut them off and send 'em down to the beach for a little 'er relaxation!

Well, you could be a task-master force those cards to shrub whatever you want, but come on....IT'S SUMMER!

Of course if you send them to a beach they could get sand in there processors which will take time to get out.

So, if I pour a bucket of sand into my laptop it'll go faster? Wow! I'll go give it a try ...

Of course we do not endorse that message and not responsible for any damage from the sand.

So are any GPU's shrubbing anything? Or are they shut down for vacation to save heat and 'lectric in this heat?

Sir etc...etc...etc...Top made a convincing enough argument for me to shrub some Folding as well. We'll see how far I get before the BOINC bug bites again. Wink

Yeah, but if someone is gaming, that GPU won't be getting much of a vacation... Unless someone enjoys the prospects of getting their arse fragged a bit #ni-1

I dunno, if knowing someone wouldn't be able to see the approach in time to react, turning that arse into a pin cushion would be rather tempting if one's playing a rump ranger /rofl

So what did your GPU do on its vacation? Did any make it to the beach?

My GPU was too new, it had to earn it's keep #ni-1

The new laptop certainly cost enough for it to earn it's keep Laughing

Mostly idle due to the unusually hot weather, but did some folding with the 570.

During the vacation, it seems my two ATI cards, a 5600 series and a 5700 series decided to create a baby, it turned out to be an NVidia card. Two single precision cards made a double precision card. They all have 1G of RAM so that must have been the dominating trait. Smile

I am actually running SETI Beta on my ATI cards currently and MW on the NVidia.
