Hi,
I installed MW_024_CUDA downloaded from Crunch3r's website.
milkyway_windows_intelx86__cuda23.exe
and it runs without any problems on my two GTX470
I run 2 wu's per GPU using <count>0.48</count>
if someone will have a look at my host 51270
Thanks to Crunch3r compiling this app.

From where you DLed this app?

I know Crunch3r's site: 'http://calbe.dw70.de'

And his forum: 'http://calbe.dw70.de/mb'

But see not this (his new compiled) MW@h CUDA app.

That's because the app isn't available over there ;)

Anyway.... to quote myself from another thread....

I'm tired of it...
Here's the modified 0.24 MW CUDA app that should work on GTx4xx cards.

http://calbe.dw70.de/milkyway/MW_0.24_CUDA.zip

This is not tested (Why would i buy a slow cuda card :p ? ) and if it fails to work or does any harm to your system, YOU take full responsibility.

If it does work, but somehow results fail to validate, YOU will have to take actions to immediately remove the app from your system and notify me here.


Apparently the app seems to work and results validate (Thanks _heinz for testing).

Thanks, it works on my GTX 470 ... and I stay under 58 ° C. ..

Tried the new app on a GTX 460 and it works. The Fermi cards are darn slow at DP though. My OCed GTX 460 averaged 1372 seconds for the 239 credit WUs while my HD 4770 cards do 230 seconds for the same. The GTX 460 is pretty slow at GPUGRID too. It does do a credible job at Collatz though: 600 seconds/WU.

19/10/2010 15:28:08 NVIDIA GPU 0: GeForce GTX 480 (driver version 25896, CUDA version 3010, compute capability 2.0, 1536MB, 1332 GFLOPS peak)


The GTX470 has 14 MultiProcs, (112 cores), GTX480 has 15 MP's (120 cores).
Had both in 1 host, an ASUS P5E Mobo, which has given me a lot of headaches.
GTX460 has 7 MP and 56 cores.
The same Mobo, with an ATI EAH4850 & EAH 5870, doesn't produce errors or has any
other difficulties, with these cards.

Both the 470 & 480 are very power hungry, an 850 Watt PSU, doesn't seem enough!
+12V DROPS TO +11.48V, runs OK now I've disabled the 470.
480 can do 2 SETI MB WU's at the same time.
The ATI 5870 uses, both with 95% GPU Load, about the same as the 480. But throtles, back further, when not used. The amount of ' raw' FLOPS=2720GFLOPS,
4850 is rated at 1000GFLOPS, both running Windoze XP, the first XP64, the latter
WIN XP x86, both Pro. (PSU=650Watt)

Still run ATI cards at MW and Collatz C. and NVidia runs SETI, GPUgrid and Einstein.

No clue, as to why, the 2 FERMI's won't run, whithout random stops, no heat, since it has no case. P5E uses the X38 chipset.
And the other, with 2 ATI cards, does what it should do, whitout failures or other issues.
5870 GPU.
4850GPU.

How do I use (run) the optimized app?

Work great on my 3 fermi cards as well - this is great news...

Will these work with an 8800GT (512Mb)??

The 8800GT does not support double precision, so it will not be usable here.

I have mirrored the Fermi CUDA app at my site as well now.

My 'out-of-the-box' GTX 460 uses less than 600 seconds for one WU.

I downloaded and installed the special application!

Works excellent on GTX470 and GTX480 under Windows-XP-pro.

Normally takes about 6 min. per wu.

Since today some of the just downloaded wu's take more then 45 minutes.

Is this "problem" already known by anybody?

I tried it with a GTX460 ... dismal fail. All computation errors after 1 second. Going back to GPU Grid.
