I have an ATI 7770 running Milkyway. It seems the work units are taking longer and awarding fewer points. Do I have something set wrong? |

Mark, Here are some run time references for comparison to your numbers. I have a Pentium E5300 Dual core system (2.6GHz) that I have run both HD 7770 and HD 7950s recently. I don't have older run times for comparison. I run BOINC 7.0.28 and Win 7 Pro 64 bit SP1 with 8 GB ram. It's an older system with a PCI-E 1.1 bus. One core runs Einstein (CPU tasks oly) and the other core is free for MW and whatever else I'm doing like surfing. Here are the times: HD 7770 - 515 secs runtime with 8.8 secs CPU HD 7950 - 61 secs runtime with 3.7 secs CPU The only difference in the runs was the GPU, everything was the same. I run Catalyst 12.6. I've had increased run times when trying all the more recent releases so I've stuck with 12.6. Joe |

You are also running some OLD versions of Boinc, you might think about upgrading as there have been some improvements made since your versions were released. Better is relative though, so if you think yours is best there is NO mandatory call to upgrade at this point. |
