|

Quote: | At long last, you can now run GFN and GFN World Record tasks on your ATI GPUs!
Only GPUs supporting double precision floating point are compatible with GFN.
This new OpenCL app can also be run on Nvidia GPUs. Sometimes the OpenCL app is faster; sometimes the CUDA app is faster. You can select whichever one runs faster on your system.
Discussion of GeneferOCL can be found here. |
Already downloaded one WU for my Radeon HD 6770M (Single Precision) @ MAC Mountain Lion, estimated run-time: 14:13:57 ETA: Error while computing after 2 secs
ETA2: Downloaded one for Radeon HD 7750 (very poor in Double Precision) @ Win7. Estimated run-time: 1189 hours
Will probably abort it soon

It has to be a Double Precision card to work, same as NVidia.
I cannot do WR on my low end NVidia cards, as it takes too long.
Some day I may have powerful video cards. _________________ Watch the movie about me The 4-1-4s: The Original Teenage Hackers (It is only about 12 minutes long.)
My lucky numbers are 121*2^4553899-1 and 3756801695685*2^666669±1

Did a few GFN, run time approximately 33 hours per with 1 free CPU thread dedicated to GPU. Credits? Laughable - less than 30K per
Wondering how it will take now to complete one, when I pull off the free CPU thread (to run CPDN on it )
ETA: no difference in time - circa 33 hours even with all 8 CPU threads occupied with 7x WCG/CEP2 (huge RAM burden) + 1x CPDN _________________
