Any news yet? When comes the new application MW3 into production? My fermi-cards and i are still waiting??? Ton (ftpd) Netherlands |

Any news yet? do not prepare yourself to whatever rac... gtx 480/470 are really crippled in dual precision performances, way under ati cypress series... I'm sorry about that, but I think that the performances/watt here on milkyway will be really disappointing. |

Any news about milkyway3 available? The gtx470/480-cards (and I) are still waiting for a normal reply?? Ton (ftpd) Netherlands Ton (ftpd) Netherlands |

GTX480 - WU Milkyway 3 = OK - 5 min. 8 secs. Bump I have gtx 470 w/driver 19775 My card keeps grabbing work with v0.24 (cuda23) is there a work around to get v.03? V .03 was installed on 22 April Apps page |

Could do with a confirmation on what is happening with this? I have read that the version 3 of the GPU app is working well, but where to get it and how to install it? I presume it is an app_info edit, but can someone post the steps needed? Thx |

We can show you where to get it, only problem is there is no work for MW3 currently. I think this is all that will be required app and dll wise. http://www.arkayn.us/milkyway/milkyway3_0.05_windows_intelx86__cuda23.zip app_info will have to be gotten from someone else as I do not know the exact syntax needed. |

That app didn't work - it was the cuda 2.3. On the apps page there aer two versions of the 0.3 app, one for cuda 2.3 and one for cuda 3, both released on the 22nd April. THe v3 app is not listed on the optimised apps page, so does anyone know where I can get it??? |

There are 3 MilkyWay@Home Version 3 shown with an installation date of 22 April, one CPU and 2 GPU (cuda23). One for Windows Version 0.03, one for Windows Version 0.03 (cuda23) and one for Linux Version 0.03 (cuda23). I do not see any CUDA applications other than cuda23 on that applications page. |

Plus I did not do the 0.3 app, I did the 0.5 app that is not listed on that page. This is where I have been looking. http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/download/?C=M;O=A |

Thanks for that link... I think I was getting confused - sorry! I will try and find the links again, but I can remember reading when googling forum posts of people crunching MW on GTX470/480's.. What does the version 0.5 app bring - is it fermi compatible? Or am I better leaving well alone.. Thx again |

I think you will have to just wait until they actually roll out MW3, right now all they are releasing are MW units which are not Fermi compatible. |

Are there plans for a fermi app? I tried searching the news section but couldn't find anything.. |

Im not sure if GPUGRID supports Fermi, but I know Folding@home does(beta atleast)although its not a BOINC based project http://folding.typepad.com/news/2010/05/open-beta-release-of-the-gpu3-clientcore.html |

Yeah, Stanford got up to a certain point and then shelved all development on their Boinc app, No reason was stated, Of course It couldn't be cause of an old Berkeley vs Stanford rivalry, It must have been for some other reason, like maybe money and/or talent availability... But then again Stanford(F@H) never did say why Folding@Home didn't become another Boinc project. Too bad really. |

I already crunch Rosetta and would like to stay within the BOINC umbrella if I can.. AFAIK - seti is the only one supporting fermi at the moment in the astromony field, and Id like to stay with 'space sciences' if possible as that is my main interest. I was just wondering where I can find info on the development status for MW3 and fermi as there is not much out there |

GPUGRID have a Fermi app - its pretty stable now after a lot of hassles with it. |

i'm not so sure if you are familiar with VLSI design but nvidia could be back on top at 28nm and if things go well with their silicon spin they could have a nice 40nm gpu too. there is nothing wrong with the fermi architecture and there is nothing wrong with r600 architecture. the physical implementation of these chips is terrible because the time for that stage was spent designing logic. the real killer of a chip is time, not making a bad architectural choice.
the relentless goal of computers over the past decades has been to make them smaller and faster. nvidia can become a major player in the mobile market with ARM. also i dont see a reason they could not go x86 as cyrix didnt have a license. |

So I just bought a Nvidia 470 GPU from Doc that uses "1.21 Gigawatts of power" but it can only be used in the future. Ha ha, great Scott! So all, since SETI is down for several days a week, I need a NEW cause to crunch. I'll start a new thread. Please response to what you know the 470/480s can do. Get crunchin' Dave |
